MORAL CONDITIONS
In THE PHILIPPINES
R port of A. Lester HaZlett to
Senate Committee.
Manila Peer of Any American City of
Equal Population in Morality and
Cleanliness.

Mr.. A. Lester Hazlett. who at the re-
quest of the Womans Christian Temper
ancc Union, of Columbus. Wis. went to
the Philippine Islands to Investigate
charges made against the military admin
istration there. has submitted his view
of the moral conditions existing In the
Philippines" and copies OF it have been
given to the press representatives by
the Senate Committee on the Philippines
Referring to Manila. Mr. Hazlett says:
Il did not find Manila to be. in the
strictest sense. model city. but can
truthfully say that. in my judgement. il
is the peer of any American city OF equal
population in the matter of cleanliness
and order, and believe its moral tone to
be such as TO fairly challenge COMPARE
son with our best cities of 100000 popula-
ton.
Probably in no other country in the
world do white men become so degraded
and demoralized, through associating with
the natives, as in the Philippines. and
nowhere else do they sink SO quickly 10
the level Of the native. ] speak now Of
the lowest class of the islipinos.'
Mr.. Hazlett devotcs considerable space
to discussion OF the social evil and its
results and dcplores the tendency of
American soldiers to marry or live with
Filipino women of the lower class. Ma
tive women of the better class. he says.
will have nothing to do with the Ameri-
cans.
The social evil problems that confront
the authorities in MANILA" he says. are
similar to those confronting us here at
home. When some American city shall
have reached a happy solution of this yex-
ing problem then may we chide our gov
eminent in the Philippines for proving re-
creant."
Regarding the marital relation lie says:
Marriage. in many Instances. has been
made impossible in legal form by the ex-
brilliant charge made by the padre for
the performance of the marriage service.
Unable to pay the fee, men and women
simply consent to live together. However,
as a rule. they are faithful TO each
other"
Referring to the army canteen. Mr..
Hazlett says:
81 believe. after n careful study of this
great question with unbiased judgment,
can truthfully say that to revoke the
anti-canteen law would be to take step
backward Never was the health and
morale of the army better than it is to-
day. The records of medical corps and
those of hospitals give ample proof oil

THREE-EYED ANIMALS.
The Tuatara Lizard and the Lamprey
Eel, Both of New Zealand.

There is probably no more interesting
country in the world to a biologist than
New Zealand. and to Prof. Dendy is due
the credit of having made some very
valuable original researches in regard to
some of the more characteristic fauna OF
the country.
Nearly everyone has heard of the tua-
tara. the curious. iguan..-like looking
creature, now found on only one or two
islands off the coast of New Zealand and
supposed to be the Oldest living types of
animal on the face Of the globe. One Of
the most curious features is an organ on
the head. which at one time was spoken
OF as the pineal gland, but which Dr.
DENLY discovered to be in reality a third
eye. His paper on the subject caused the
grea test interest in scientific circles. and
as an illustration of the way in which re-
search is specialized nowadays it may be
mentioned that while DR.. DENLY devoted
himself to the study Of the third eye one
distinguished English biologist is work
ing cut" the skeleton, another the kid
neys. and so forth. In short time.
therefore. our anatomical knowledge OF
the tuatara ought to be complete.
More recently DR.. Dendy has discovered
another New Zealand creature possessing
a third eye. This is the New Zealand
lamprey. a favorite article of food among
ne eye 10
right on top of the head and is covered
with thin coating of skin. II is doubt
full whether 1t is now of any practical use
for seeing. but DR.. Dendy believes that
at one time. far back In the worlds his
tory. there were two eyes on the back Of
the lamprey's head. He is further of the
opinion that at one time the tuatara also
had two eyes where now only one re-
mains. In the tuatara 1t is the left eye
Ill -. L.
it Is the right one.
The English lamprey has only two eyes.
and is to that extent inferior to it's New
Zealand congoner. but it has its compen
sations. for was it not recorded in our
history books at school that an English
king died from eating too many lampreys?
No one can deprive the English lamprey
of that distinction. Behold yet another
instance Of the way in which the his
torical associations of the old world coun-
terbalance attractions which we owe to
nature Melbourne Argus.

Cincinnati's baseball chief has stirred
up a controversy by a singular remark.
lie asserted that there is little difference
between the playing ability of a minor
and National League ball player. The
players who demand exorbitant salaries
must be set to thinking. The Reds boss
does not mean that any player in n minor
league is just as good as any player in
the big league. His idea Is that there are
some players in the minor leagues just
as good as and even better than some in
the big league. There is no doubt that
many player remains in minor league
more capable than some who are In the
big league simply because he mas never
had chance to show what he can do in
the major organization. This year dozens
OF minor league men are getting that
chance. Some are making good. No major
league outfeld could have excelled the
work yesterday of Miller, Lynch, and
Congaiton, of Chicago.
