 American Plan.
 STRICTLY TRANSIENT.

American missionaries have had the as- sistance of several natives of more or less pretension, mostly less, to scholar ship in their own diaisets- They are however, at least no better painstaking work of this sort than their American colleagues. and, in addition, know almost nothing of the Bible, as is to be said of every Filipino, even the best educated.
 Under the eircun stances, one $ eesaasz pelled to wonder just what sort of an impression of the Bible will be obtained by those of the Filipino masses who read these translations. Occasionally one hears a defender of the friars praising their devotion in mastering the native dialects and their scholar- ship as preachers and writers in these tongues. As a matter of fact, the great majority of friars, even after long residence in the country, preached so atrociously in the dialect that the bet- ter educated natives used always to be laughing about their sermons behind their sleeves. It is scarcely probable that our Protestant missionaries in theS few years in which they have been at work among the Fiiipinos, are capable of doing better, if as well.-The Out~ lDOlS

At the Hyperion Last Evening Enthu-
 siastically Received.
 If applause and enthusiasm from a representative New Haven audience are to be considered as standards of appro- bation then Richard Harding Davis new play. "Ranson's Folly as present. ed last night was a success in every re- spect. The play is one of American military life written in a new vein which evolves scenes interesting in the ex- treme and characteristic of the enthu- siastic young American soldier in the barracks of this country. The story is strong in every respect. and keeps the audience in an expectant mood. It Is so totally different, and the plot so deeply constructed, that despite the clever work of the characters the auditor is not quite certain of the final outcome of the main thread.
 The company is an excellent one, and headed by that splendid young actor. Robert Edeson. who was so favorably received here two years ago in Soldiers of Fortune.' His reception at that time was very generous, and it was even more so last night. While all Of the members of the supporting company were very good in their respective por- trayals the work os Miss Sandol Milli- ken. as Mary Cahill, the simple yet charming daughter of the post trader, won a place in the hearts of New Ha- veners. which is enviable in the ex- treme The character was one of sim plicity, and Miss Miliken essayed 1t in perfectly charming manner, and with a naturalness which compelled unstint- ed recognition from the audience.
 At the close oe the second act MT. Edeson made a short curtain speech in which he said that two years ago he and his company after receiving praise from a New Haven audience for their presentation of Soldiers of Fortune went to New York sassy" and that they were going to do the same thing on Monday night next. He thanked all for their cordial reception.

BIBLE IN THE PHILIPPINES.

Free Hand Translation Into TagaIog,
 Vasayan and Pampangan.
 During the last two years and a half number of Protestant missionaries in the Philippines, mostil Presbyterian and Methodist, have been engaged in making translations of certain of the New Testament Gospels into the Taga- log, and then the Vasayan, the Pam pangan and perhaps already the Ilocano dialects. Their object is, of course, a most laudable one from the standpoint of every one who believes in the edu- cation of the individual will and judg- ment in religious as in all other rla3- ters; it is to give to the Filipinos, who be called a religious literature, a chance are really without anything that could to learn of Chri5t's life and mission in their own everyday tongues, in which most of the masses can read at least a. little. It is an enterprise magnificent in scope; all the more reason for ex- pecting to make progress slowly in it.
 It is to be feared that the transla- tions, hurried into shape at Manila and hurried off the presses in this country. are hardly such as could be desired to be made of The Book" However zealous the missionaries must be given credit for being in acquiring a practi- cal speaking knowledge of the dialects of the natives with whom they are at work, not one of them is in any sense scholarly linguist, and there is all the more necessity for careful forms of written speech, such as the various Malay dialects are.

nets, trammel nets, fyke nets. cast nets. dip nets, set, jug" and hand lines and spears. In 'jugging" the fisherman first secures a dozen or so of small jugs, and corking them up tight he attaches a line to the neck of each. At the free end of the line a hook is secured, which lis baited. and the whole thrown over board and allowed to float. The jug floats easily at the surface. and thus keeps the bait foot or two from the bottom. Catfish alone are taken in this manner. As soon as a jug disappears below the surface, the fisherman pad dles to it, and as soon as it reappears he pulls in the line and removes the fish which has been caught. The other forms of apparatus are operated the same as in other parts of the country. The principal species of fish taken by the fishermen are black bass, German carp, buffalo. catfish, crappie or calico bass; fresh-water drum (known locally as white perch), eeIs, hickory shad, mooneye or toothed herring, paddle-isli, or spoonbill cat, so-called from it's long spoon shaped bill; pike, sauger. wall eyed pike, rock bass, shad, lake and shovel nose sturgeon. suckers, sunfish, white bass and yellow perch. Catfish, especially on the Mississippi river, at- tain an enormous size. from fifty to one hundred pounds being a not unusual weight, while three hundred and four hundred pound fish have been captured.
 In addition to the classes mentioned are many who have found it to their in- f. T.xr means of houseboats. Among these may be mentioned junk dealers, who exchange groceries, crockery and no- tions for junk. and, in many instances, eggs. chickens and dairy products; blacksmiths, who tie up their floating shop wherever business looks promis- ing; travelling sawnills, which work up' into lumber such logs as the farmer has accumulated near the bank; chair makers, upholsterers. feather and mat tress renovators, photographers, who are especially welcome at the country towns; shoemakers, timers, barbers, sewing machine agents, blind tigers which sell moonshine whiskey-in fact, nearly all braiches of trade are repre- Sented. Not to be overlooked are the Boating theaters and opera companies. These usually have large barges as playhouses, which are lowed from town to town by gaudily painted tugs. Some times there is mounted on these tugs steam piano, which the snowman guar |antees can be heard for four miles around, and he is usually correct in his statement. The theatrical companies have only a limited repertory, two pieces generally composing it. South of the Ohio river .'Ten Nights in Bar room" is the favorite, while north of the river Uncle Toms Cabin'' is played to crowded houses. or, rather, barges.-- New York Tribune.
