COMING MAN OF THE EAST,
Rosy View Of the Future of Philippine
Native.

J. c. Grant Wilson. member of the In
stitute Of Mechanical Engineers of London,
who lived for twenty years in the Philippine
Islands, is stopping at the New Willard.
Mr.. Wilson went to the Philippines in
1878, and left the islands shortly before
Dewey's arrival at Manila in 1898. Since
that time he, has been keeping in close
touch with the Philippine problem, and is
today numbered among those best posted
on eastern questions. He was invited by
Judge Day to testify before the peace com
mission in Paris in 1898, but declined, say
ing that he did not wish to become involved
in politics.
His experience in the islands was not con-
fined to life in Manila, for he spent much Of
his time living among the natives, and of
the residents Of Manila he was considered
the best authority on the natives because
his life had been SO close to theirs
THE Philippine native is the coming man
of the east" said Mr.. Wilson to a Star man.
Under proper conditions there is no doubt
that he will develop into most useful citi-
zen You cannot convert them into high
ly civilized people in a day. however: 1t re-
quires time Your laws do not fit his needs
any more than his ancient laws would fit
your people. 1 have the highest respect for
Gov Taft. and I think he is the best man
for the place"

LOVE TO BE HUMBUGGED.
Tobacco Mans Estimate Of the Ameri-
can Public

THAT the American public loves to be
humbugged Is shown by the extraordinary
popularity Of what Is known as Egyptian
cigarettes. OF the 800 varieties of these
articles now in the market it is almost saf e
to affirm that nine-tenths have had as little
relation to Egypt as the men who use them
under the impression that they came from
Alexandria or Cairo" said J. G. Salvin. a
New York tobacco drummer, to a Star man
at the Raleigh today.
I'm the first place there Is no such thing
as Egyptian tobacco. The culture of the
leaf is forbidden by law in that country.
The reason of the prohibition involves a
curious chapter in trade history. The best
cigarette tobacco of the east Is Turkish.
and it is used in Russia. Turkey Egypt and
nearly all the Mediterranean countries
Long ago it was found that Turkish tobac-
co going from Constantinople to AIexan-
dria underwent sweating which improved
its flavor. If carried shorter distance,
say, to BeyroOt. or longer one to Algiers
there was no Improvement. This gave a
prestige to the Egyptian cigarette made of
Turkish tobacco, which brought wealth to
the manufacturer and a heavy revenue to
the state. In order to increase this revenue
the government at one time took measures
to grow the leaf in the delta. but the result
proved an unpleasant surprise. Though
grown from Turkish seed the weed proved
fell fiat on the market. The disfavor ex-
tended to the legitimate traffic. Manu-
facturers complained and the government
found deficit in Its returns. To make
amends a law was passed forbidding to-
bacco culture. and ever since the Egyp-
tian cigarette has been made of a fine
grade of the Turkish leaf. The country
exports large number of cigarettes and a
very small quantity of tobacco. not enough
IN fact. to make as many so-called 'Egyp-
ians as are smoked in twenty-four hours
in the United States and Great Britain. The
tobacco of the domestic Egyptians is Turk
ish of all sorts of grades and also Syrian.

ANIMAL CHARACTERISTICS.
The Emission of Odors Natural Means
Of Protection.

That the strong doors emitted by many
living creatures may play protective
role In their lives has been often suggest
man yesterday.
"A considerable number of animals as
Is well known, emit strong odors, which
are generally unpleasant, at least to man.
and natualists have often considered these
odors as playing an important part In the
biology of the animal. The odor protects 1t
and serves to drive away certain enemies
1t is certain, for example. that the skunk
whose disagreeable OdOr is so strong that
1T remains from autumn to spring in a
place where one of the creatures has been
Killed. is very generally respected by car
nivorous animals But some other odors
are hardly protective. 1t is true that they
then play another part. They constitute a
secondary sexual characteristic often lin
tied to one sex by which the males and fe-
males find each other out at the mating
season. and which disappears when this Is
over. There are some moths that exhale
an odor of musk only the males have IT
and these only at the mating season An
Australian duck emts marked odor which
Is restricted to the male and Is strongest
in spring.
but with many animals there are strong
odors that seem to have no sexual character
ana 10 confer no particular protection
against other animals In addition it would
seem that other odorS attract enemies
Crows seem to have a special liking for in
sects with strong odor. Certain birds
have a taste for those myriapods that ex-
hale marked odor of prussic acid. Per
haps we must conclude from these facts
that the tastes of animals. far as smells
are concerned, differ sensibly from ours"

JESSRANG is TO
LEAVE HIS JOB
Will Resign as License In
spector and Will Quit City
Clerkship Contest.

City License Inspector Charles Jess
rang will tender his resignation to the
board of police commissioners at it's
next meeting. He will also withdraw
from the contest for the city clerkship
and take a position with the Hamm
Brewing company.
This was the story current around
the city hall yesterday, and it was con-
f1rmed last night by several of the
members Of the city council at the city
corporation attorney caucus.
The position that Mr.. Jessrang will
take with the Hamm Brewing COM
pany, it is said, will be the one held by
the late William Knobloch, and will
bring him larger stipend than the one
he now holds. The city license inspec-
torship pays $1,000 a year.
Mr. JeSsrang has not verified the
story of his expected resignation, in
fact, his friends say he has studiously
avoided any reference to the matter,
but several of the Democratic MEM
bers Of the council last evening insist
ed that it was true.
Mr.. Jessrang has held the position
of license inspector a number of years.
and because of his extensive knowl-
edge of the business came to be re-
garded as one of the best and most
efficient inspectors ever employed by
the city. He had quite following for
