Harlan, Iowa, Dec. 1-(Special.)-
On a farm in Grove township, Shell
by county, is a unique family, the
like of which cannot, perhaps, be
duplicated in the state of Iowa.
The family consists of five stall
wart men, the eldest about As years
of age and the youngest about 25.
Not one of this family is married,
and all live in the same house.
They own in Shelby county over
500 acres of land, and altogether $50
acres They have in their feed lots
300 fat hogs and 100 head of steers
fa%ttening. They do their own work
and have often five teams engaged
in performing various tasks on the
big farm owned in common by
them. The men are named Weber.
Their father, who died about seven
years ago, came from France. His
father had served under Napoleon
and was a member of the Inflated
expedition to Moscow.

Last Friday the friends and neigh

horrible news that their little

ignited, setting the child's dress on
fire, and before she was discovered
a so horribly burned that she

In August OF last year the Philippine COM

United States at the expense of the in
suiar government. The boys were care
fully selected by examination both mental
and physical. from thirty-three provinces,
and English was one of the studies in which
they were obliged to have good grades
Great enthusiasm throughout the Phil
lppines was aroused by the sending OF these
students to America. and many pleasing
attentions We're shown them both at their
home towns and in Manila before EMBARK
| ing. A special operate performance was
given in their honor. and on the morning
of their departure a meeting was held at
which addresses were made by Gov. TAFT.
Commissioners Smith and Tavera and
prominent Fflipinos, after which they
marched to the wharf in a body to the
music of half a dozen brass bands and ac-
companied by civic organizations and thOus-
ands of citizens.

1t was thought best not to subject them
to the rigors of a northern winter at once,
but next summer they will be brought TO
the middle states. up
The report concludes with the following
language:
mo other class of Filipinos whom l have
known have in any degree compared with
the Filipino students sent TO America in
their appreciation and gratitude for the
benefits conferred upon them. for the for
bearance and patience shown them and the
opportunities offered them for progress by
the government. / have reports from their
teachers and housekeepers at every place
that the danger is not that they will study
too little but that they will study too much.
They uniformly successful in the ex-
aminations held by their schools. just prior
to the holidays despite their late entrance
to the schools and the short time that they
have been studying their texts in English.
They are all working with splendid serious
ness for the accomplishment of the lofty
purposes for which they are in this country.
and / only ask that good material be
furnished in the future; that not one young
man or young woman in whom the fullest
confidence may not be placed and whose
fitness. mental and physical. is not of the
very highest order be sent by the govern
ment for education in the United States.
There is no scarcity of such material, and
