carnival season. 1t is the event Of the
year. Natives talk of it and its gaieties
strangers study its many phases and
endeavor to get themselves within the
inner ring, which is most difficult. For
many of the events preceding Mardi
Gras are of a private and specially
select nature: all the principal masked
balls being OF this class. 1t is much
easier to interview the President of the
United States than to get within the
confines of these ball rooms. To illus
trate the reason: there are never $500
participants and spectators at any of
these events. At carnival time there
are fully $50, 600 people within the city.
1t is safe to estimate that as many as
25, 900 to 10000 persons of this number,
if not more, are desirous of entering
the charmed circles, and they are fitted
by social position, and influence, and
means of securing the proper dress, for
getting inside. But they can't get in.
There isn't room for them. Only about
ten per cent can get there. 1 am fav-
ored by the courtesy of Mr.. Richardson
of the Times-Democrat with tickets to
some of the best of the balls. Here are
some of the leading events, all private:
on February 9th, the ball of the Fal-
staffians; on the 9th, the ball OF the
High Priests of Mithras, at the French
Opera House; on the 18th, the ball OF
the Elves of Oberon; the 10th, ball of

FILIPINOS HAVE FAITH
IN NEW GOVERNMENT
Report of the Governor Of
the Province of Bulacan.

The Bureau OF Insular Affairs of the
War Department has received the an
nual report OF Pablo Tecson, governor
Of the province of Bulacan. P. l.. for
the year 1902. in which he says:
THE political situation of the prov
ince could not be more satisfactory.
Since l took possession OF the govern
ment there has not been noted the least
perturbation of public order, but, on
the other hand, L have observed ths.
American sovereignty is now so firmly
established that IT is reflected In the
confidence and faith which the in
habitants feel when they see the eff
forts which the government makes In
carrying out their exceedingly favorable
promise.
AS an eloquent proof of this. We cite
the ease with which the taxes were col
lected, especially the land tax. which is
so new in this country, and to the pay
ment of which the t-ovince responded
with such patriotism. without Offering
the least opposition. Notwithstanding
the agricultural crisis through which
it has passed, and Is now passing
Small bands OF ladrones the
remains of the past revolution, still
exist in the province. engaged in steal
ing animals, making highway assaults
upon isolated roads and settlements,
but having. however. no political sig
nifcance. These small bands are fast
disappearing owing TO the constant
persecution of the constabulary. local
police. and the provincial volunteers"
The governor mentions how agrIeul-
ture has suffered from the loss OF ami
mails, and the plague of locusts. He
also gives quite a list OF bridges, both
of wood and stone. that have been con-
structed and roads that have been i'm
proved.
In speaking of public instruction he
reports that education has not developed
as it should for the following reasons:
First, the scarcity OF Filipino teachers.
who should be paid by the municipaii-
ties; second, the lack Of a law compel
ling the attendance of children, when
their parents, through apathy or an
Client custom. do not wish 10 send them
TO school; third the continuous calami-
ties which have befallen this province
during the year 1902. and he urges that
Filipino teachers be assigned to assist
the Americans in their task Of teaching
English.
THE hygienic condition OF the prov
ince," adds the report, lis highly salts
factory and this is due doubtless to
the persevering and Intelligent efforts
of the president of the provincial board
of health, seconded by the municipali-
ties who enforce the sanitary laws in
their respective jurisdictions. In the
cholera epidemic just past the provin
cial president was found lending his
personal aid in the most infected
pueblos of the province. There occurred
but 1,520 deaths from cholera in the
whole province. which contains approx
mately 21& 900 Inhabitants"

Power Behind the Throne
During Aguinaldo Regime.
A MOST BRILLIANT FILIPINO
Banished to Guam and Refused to Take
Oath of Allegiance to United
States Until Dying.

1t is generally conceded here among
officers of the army and navy con-
versant with conditions in the Philip
pines, that, although Aguinaldo was the
Apolinario Mabini, whose death from
cholera is chronicled in dispatches from
Manila, was the real fnstfgator of the
insurrection and subsequently the silent
director of the destinies of the Fill
pino Republic
Nominally minister of foreign af
fairs. the brilliant young paralytic be-
came the brains OF the organization His
counsel and advice were accepted with
out question by Aguinaldo. and 1t is
known that nearly all the proclamations
and other state papers bearing Aguin-
aldo's name, were really the work of
Mabini. Undoubtedly his death removes
the abIest representative of the Filipino
people since the time of the martyred
Rial.
II Is the generally accepted belief that
he was actuated in his efforts toward
independence by q real spirit of pa
triotism and affection for his fellow
countrymsn. Certainly none of the
charges OF personal ACKNOWLEDGMENT that
have been made with truth regarding
many of the Filipino leaders could ap-
ply to him.
For more than two years he suffered
exile in the Island of Guam, steadfastly
refusing the liberty that could be
bought by attaching his signature to an
oath OF allegiance, until, forsaken by
all his associates save Ricarte, en-
fesbled in body and mind. he finally
submitted. but only that he might return
to die among his people.
Although lately It was ascertaiDcd that
after his return to Manila he had been
in correspondence with guerrilla leaders
In the field, it is asserted that his COM
muntcations were of personal and not
seditious nature. Nevertheless on ac-
count OF his past efforts and the great
influence he still held over the Filipinos,
he continued to be regarded with suspi-
cion and there is no doubt his death re-
lieves the authorities of an annoying
element
For his personal attachments. he Was
held in high esteem by Generals OTIS,
Macarthur, Chaffee, and other officers,
as well as Governor Taft.
In testifying before the Senate Com
mlttee on the Philippines. last year.
General Macarthur said of Mabini:
He Is a highly educated young man,
