what time they will reach the exalted
state. At nightfall in the magic splen-
dor of the moon reverberating in the
depth Of the forest, warlike sounding
metal, like the everlasting lamenting
echo of ever-wandering souls, the
priests congregate all fame-thirsty
youths, speak of the strong ones who
died a noble death in front of the enc
mics steel, of the menacing shadows
of creditors, of the glory of the hero
and infamy and slavery of the coward
and of the inexhaustibe lives of pleas
ure where bright and brilliant eyes
look upon infinite treasures; and imag-
nation crazes them, they convulsively
grasp their sharp kris (sword) and inn
agne themselves feeling the cold
sweat of death on their foreheads.
From the damp vapor of the night
surge voices, instilling valor in their
hearts. The following day they die at
a Spanish outpost.
THE first Juramentado of whom we
have knowledge, through history or
tradition, gave themselves up to mar
tyrdom through exultation of belief.
Exalted i'm practice of prayer, fasting
and making abstraction of all terres-
trial pleasures, anxious to gain the
paradise offered to all believers of Mo-
hamad, they prepare themselves for
sacrifice, imposing upon themselves
material modification, putting strong
bindings upon their members and re-
solve to die on the terminal day. They
shave their heads carefully clothe
themselves i'm clean white clothing
(color for mourning worn among the
islanders), and, accompanied by their
relatives, after arriving at the spot of
bloody publication, they take leave of
their relatives and present THEMSELVES
before the largest possible body of
armed Christians, calling their atten-
ton, provoking them, in search of
death anr martyrdOm. The meritOrious
of eternal recompense were to receive
cruel blows without a murmur or la
ment, without show of agony, avoid
ance or suffering. until expiring. they
lie victims of their own ignorance.
These mystic martyrs followed the
warriors and were not satisfied in dy-
ing but anxious to kill, mixing relisi-
Gus fanaticism with political fervor
never retreating, showing themselves
to their enemies and trying to cause the
death of the largest number before
falling. Their open attacks being fol-
lowed by ambuscades and surprises,
any means seemed proper to gain their
martyrdom. The odium of races, the
desire to distinguish themselves before
their families, Wishing TO be revenged
and many other cases make the Jura-
mentado of today. Abuse, scorn or any
injury will make assassins of Moro5,
and will convert the greatest coward
! into ferocious beast Take Moro
who has been your friend and force
him to leave you and he will make you
take his kris and kill him because he
will never allow himself TO be so dis
honored.

MOROS ARE
FA7ALISTS
THEIR STRANGE DESPOTIC GUS
TOMS MAKE THEM SUBJECT TO
CHIEFS.

The famous Moros of the Philippine
Islands are in many respects a remark
able race of people. They are fatalists
of the most advanced character as the
American troops found to their cost
during the recent operations against
them.
The regiment officers of the 18th Cav
airy which was in port yesterday on
the transport Logan have secured a
very interesting translation of a Span
ish account of the Moros. The account
is as follows:
"The, Moros are accustomed to suffer
all the caprices of their despotic au-
thority. The laws of centuries per-
nit the men to be recruited for any
purpose whatsoever The debtor who
cannot pay becomes with his family
the slave of the creditor, and the Moros
are so Indifferent to these conditions
that their owners do not encounter
any difficulty in making them contract
such debts for their own resources.
The debtor thus loses all his rights
and his children call be sold through
out the archipelago. He can, however,
buy the liberty of his family at the
risk of his life. e., for the largest
number of Christians he can Stay. If
the debtor accepts the proposition he
becomes at THAT IL
tado, knowing perfectly we'll that if he
manages to get in the midst of a Span
ish settlement all hope for escape is
dead. Death therefore is certain for
all Juramentados, and it is never the
case that one repents his imprudence
because there are a number of Jura-
mentados assembled TO submit them
selves to certain rites performed by ex-
pert pandites or priests,
alone in the deserted forest the
moonlight adding its rays to the weird
and fantastic scene, they commence
their exercises by fasting, reciting, and
praying over the graves of the departed
Juramentados, and speak of the bliss
and happiness that is to be theirs in the
heaven of Mahomed. When they arrive
at a sufficient state Of eXultation they
We're never in before, they are sent into
Christian community. AS this is a
ceremony that interests more or less
different families and a great number
of formalities have to be gone through
it can never be kept absolutely secret
no matter how much it would be ia
their interest to do so, and then it is
that the Governor of Jolo receives no.

dos will be made. But they will never
inform him of the exact time when the
attack will be made, because the Jura-
mentados themselves do not know al
