HOLD TO BARBARIc USAGE,
Singular Decorations of Figures il Churches and Cemeteries in
 the Philippines.

"One of the great curiosities to Amer jeans who first visit the Philippines, said an army officer, reports the Wash ington Star, who has just returned after D three-years' detail in the archipelago, Sis the method of decoration used in the churches and cemeteries, especially ln the matter of the statues of Christ and the virgin. Almost all the statues Of the Saviour in countries whose population is dark-skinned afe of an Ethiopian hue, and bear the facial characteristics of the natives. It would never do to depict Filipino Christ as white man, for the reason that the natives would not under stand or respect it as highly as they would Divine leader of their own race. And it follows that the mother of Christ must also be black, or at least or dark hue
 "But one of the funniest things that ever caught my eye was statue in cemetery in Luzon. There was glass case as high as 8 man and perhaps four feet square placed in prominent part of the city of the dead that caught and held the eye. Upon closer inspection the case was seen to contain statue of woman. She was gowned in the most elaborate fashion known to the Filipino dressmaker, and modern hat of the Gainsboro type was set jauntily over her ear, the broad brim falling away in a dashing style from her left eye. The hat was the most attractive feature of the whole thing, being really stylish creation, copied, without doubt, from some fashion book of New York styles.
 At the foot of this wonderful statue were representations of many of the animals of the Philippine forest all com ing up to worship it, and as curiosity 1t had no competitor in the entire island. But the officers and soldiers of the army who were iR the neighbcrhOod, and who went to see 1t, were at a loss to under stand it's meaning until padre came to the rescue. He explained that it was statue of the Virgin Mary, and the con- sternation of the Catholic soldiers may be imagined when they looked upon what they thought to be dissertation of a, sacred subject.
 "The padre, however, soon quelled their anger by explaining to them that GAC C AlAPAAO WdntCQ lAoCA uCSOl oClOA for his religious subjects as he could get, and that he would not appreciate statue of the virgin clad in the garments that are familiar to us as the raiment of purity. He demanded more than sim pie garment wound about the form, and the priests had to respond to the demand in order to have their teachings com mand respect The customary garb of the virgin is too much like that worn by the natives to appeal to them, and they would not readily admit the superiority of being whose dress was not more elaborate than their own. So it is as much custom of the country to dress the virgin in fine raiment as it is to paint the face and body of the Christ to corre- spond with the hue which is familiar to the natives, and have heard of several other cases where statues of the virgin are finished in the very latest creations of the modiste's and milliner's art"
