> In the great lobby they were
! shown the portrait of the mar
tyred Mckinley. As they looked care
fully at it they were told of the tragedy
at Buffalo and the untimely end of the
great President who was assassinated
at the exposition. They listened atten-
lively and with great interest.
After hearing the story of Mckinley
the party started off further views of
the White House. For a moment the
visitors stuck their heads together and
there was a great 'uUrmuring in their
native tongue. Finally the interpreter
got on to what they were saying.
They want ~FD see a picture of
George Washington" said the interpre-
ter, who got his cue from little Antero,
the IgOrrote who has an excellent com
mand of English. despite the fact that
he is quite young and has never been
in this country before. They want to
see the man who saved the country
for the Americans, the man with whom
they have heard their Aguinaldo COM
pared"
Forthwith they were marched to the
diplomatic rooms, in which hangs the
life-size portrait of the father of Anne
RIGA. When they got in front of the
portrait they stood and gazed at il
rapturously -or several minutes. They
remained silent and thoughtful When
asked what they thought of him they
spoke in words of great praise. Good
man to look at. Big, strong man
Much better than Aguinaldo," said little
Antero, the interpr ter, after hearing
the comments of his associates.
Little Antero is only fifteen years
old, and has attended school ever since
the Americans first established these
institutions in the archipelago. He is
still attending school at the Philippine
reservation in st. Louis. He talks
English very well and catches on with
remarkable quickness. He is parti-
cularly careful about his pronunciation
and has little or no trace of the for
eign pronunciation of his English
words
From the diplomatic room the guests
were taken to the rear portico of the
White House so that they could get
good view of the Washington monu-
ment, and this is where DattO Fecundi
who has always been friendly to the
Americans made some wise remarks.
Col. Edwards told of the monument
and said that it's erection was tri
butte to America n skill. He told OF
how the Americans generally found
way to accomplish whatever they sci
out to do.
why" said Col. Edwards to the dat
to, those Filipinos that the holding
out against American authority are
Holsters" This remark was repeated
to Datto Fecundi and the meaning o.
the term interpreted for him.
They are worse" responded Date
Fecundi. "They know not what they
do. 1 have frequently told them they
must give in; that the Americanos will
make them do so before they are much
older"
