PHILIPPINE LETTER,

Customs of a Few Filipino
Tribes.
Dumalog, Oct. rs. 10 !


D,ar Editor: BY tie time this
reaches you pe,hars election will be
over; and Shouli Won find space Tor
IT, shall not see Il for three months
or more.
Mail to this point seems secure but
very slow.
Tonight is the first beautiful. starry
night for many DAYS. but to- night
seem to see all the stars again. The
milky way seems whittier stu. The
north star hangs nearly under the
great dipper and very close to the
horizon. The southern cross hangs
slightly out of drawing over White
Stone mountain. Many locus's and
crickets sing a merry tune but IL is
not sweet to the ear Of our rice
farmers. Grasshoppers and locusts
are great enemies To- rice and YOU
may see many boys end girls driving
out the winged ones with long red
streamers or gathering the younger,
wingless ones into bags to BE- boiled
and fed to the hogs and chickens.
Surely here is not all gathering OF
ripe fruits or bringing OF Fl IN from the
bouutiiul sea believe these people
were by nature Industrious. but,
where the Spanish culture has touch
ed here and there with its thin
veneer. it will take many years to
unlearn some simple ideas grown
through many generations. For ex
ample, your sturdy American farm
er would think II very simple for
man owning a few hundred dollars
worth OF rice land To walk about
looking over the work OF few men
and himself idle, for this same man
to pay few cents a day for cooks
and servants of all kinds and because
he has not money enough to pay tor
help for much needed cleaning and
building. to wait for the small profits
from horde of useless servants rath
er than to 60 to work and do things
for himself. Outside of these veneer OF
worthless Spanish ideas and very
sincere belief In kind of crude Cath
Ollie religion with its many priests,
this people seems very close to ma
ture. They have much to learn be
sides language.
Their religious devotion Is really
quite touching. However much you
may see at other times of bare feet
and brorze skin or of stains OF toll,
when they enter the church, these
people are very clean and devout, the
women sitting or kneeling, as the ser |
vice may require, on the bare tile
floor, looking always towards the
altar.
To the protestant, the swaying Of
the censor and the many bowings and
the holy smoke and the holy water
may seem a very second handed way
of serving God, but at least 1t Is
something to unite a barbarous peo-
pie In some way and touch their souls
with Ideas OF love and sacrifice.
Perhaps 1t were not best to disturb |
them In their zone and only" faith,
but we need many to speak to them
with power and kindness OF the gos-
pei Of good homes. ]. c. B.

THE MAGAZINE SAMPLER

Can Fable-st Farm?-An inter-
viewer Of George AIDE, in the indianapolis
News, has some amusing things to say
of the farm in Brook, Indiana, owned by
the famous author Of Fables in Slang, -

the place does such outlandish things.
Mr.. Ade, they insist, has tried to do
everything so differently from anybody
else. His house is of queer architecture,
the rafters in the barn are vanished
honestly!-and he brought a man here
from Chicago to peautify the place-a
landscape gardener, you knoW-and in
stead of cutting out the hazelbrush the
Chicagoan insisted or letting it grow and
wanted to transplant more of it, And
the farmers of Newton county have been
struggling for years to clear their farms
Of the very thing that the landscape
gardener insisted ought to stay. So Ha-

Minneapolis people will be interested to
know that the landscape architect re-
-ferred to above is George c. Cone, who
on looking for a place to locate decided
upon Minneapolis. He came to the city
last fall and opened an office in the
Bank of Commerce building. But induce
ments were offered him in the early
spring to go to Chicago and in his work

The firm of K. Solomon & Co.,
of Pittsburg, Pa, of which Mr.. Ben.
S. Jacobs has been the advertising
manager for the past five years, is
known as one of the firmest believers
in extensive advertising in the smoky
city. Their advertising appropriation
is one of the most liberal in the coun-
try and in the eleven years Of their
existence they have outstripped many
older firms This firm attributes their
leading position in the Pittsburg re-
tail field largely to the persistent and
consistent advertising.
K. Solomon & Co. easily lead in
popular and higher-priced outfttings
for men, women and children, and
have found by experience that the
judicious use of high-class illustra-
tons, together with well-displayed
type matter, have contributed largely
to the remarkable success secured
through their advertising of mems,
women's and children's garments.
They maintain their own art depart
ment under the direction of the adj
inal illustrations in their ads.
The unalterable policy Of this house
is truthful advertising, not sensational
but strong and positive-backing
up every statement with the goods.
Mr.. Ben S. Jacobs, the firms ad
man, was born in New York city and
entered the advertising field after a.
careful training In newspaper work on
leading eastern papers. Taking charge
of the advertising department of a
large eastern store, he soon gained a
reputation which resulted in his COM
ing to Pitsburg and assuming full con-
troll at the Solomon store. His init
mate knowledge Of type display and
newspaper technicalities, combined
with executive ability as a merchan-
disc man and manager, have made
him one of the most successful pub
licity men in the country. He is still
a young man, in fact probably one
of the youngest men in the country oc-
cupying such an important post with
| so large a concern.
When Mr.. Jacobs opinion was asked
of the value Of evening and morning
dailies respectively, he replied: 1--WE
believe that the evening papers are
more effective for us inasmuch as we
advertise women's goods more ex-
tensively than mems. The evening
| paper reaches the women"

The Storm in Minneapolis.

Minneapolis has always congratulate
ed herself that she is not in the "cy-
clone belt" While Kansas and Mis-
souri, and other more southern lat-
tudes have been visited by disastrous
storms from time to time, we have
generally escaped. 1t might have been
very much worse here, but 1t was bad
enough to make us want to touch
wood" before indulging ourselves very
freely hereafter in the fancy that Min
neapolis is an immune.
A remarkable thing about the storm
Of Saturday night was the compare
lively slight damage done to private
residences, while more substantial and
heavier structures suffered so much.
The havoc among the trees is account
ed for in large part by the unusual
weight of foliage and the sappy con-
dition of the wood, made more tender
than usual, no doubt, by the excess Of
moisture this rainy year. And that is
where the city has suffered most.
Buildings can be repaired and tor
nado insurance will heal multitude
erty, but it will not restore the beauty
Of our tree-lined avenues and bring
back to us our leafy friends, the de-
velopment of whose beauty and
strength many of us have watched and
tended with care for many years. The
Lowry elms, the Morrison NAPLES, the
willows of Loring park and leafy
arches of Harmon place, the shady
aisles of Park and Portland. Of Sec
ond and Third and other avenues and
streets, which we have all enjoyed SO
much and which have excited SO much
admiration from visitors, are in sad
state of ruin and disorder which II
will take years to repair.
But, with all that and all the dam
age to property, we have reason to be
grateful that the loss of life and per-
This fortunate result could hardly
Z have been if the very heavy rair
which preceded the windstorm hac
not driven everyone to shelter The
usual Saturday night crowds exposed
on the streets to flying boards ant
glass and umbling chimneys and cor
nices must have met with many seri
Gus casualties.
Such a visitation teaches nothing il
the way of protection either Of life o.
property. Against the powers of thu
air we cannot successfully protec
either ourselves or our property. Thu
cyclone cellar is available for only
few in such an emergency.

The story Of the romance Of this for
mer Minneapolis motorman is found in
Robert Bars The Woman Wins, a book
of exceptionally readable and entertaining
short stories in Mr.. Bars best vein
which book, we should add, is our au-
thority for the facts. related above, for,
of course, being related in a work of fic-
ton. they must be facts, and, therefore,
very properly have place as news OF the
book world
Tho title of the book is not that of
any story in the book. It is taken ap-
parently because the woman in each case
wirs. She does so very cleverly, for ex-
which the Countess of croydon, who is
very wealthy decides that she will not
be married for her money. The plan by
which she seeks to escape the fate she
breads is masterfully executed. How?
Well, that is Mr.. Bars story, and it is
a good one.

DUELINe IN FRANCE

IT appears from a decision Of the French
courts that a man may fight duel with
pistols or swords, and if with fatal results
there is no penalty. But if one cannot af-
ford these weapons, and fights with
humber means. there is no such immunity.
Two men of Charonne have been prose-
cuted in consequence of having fought
duel with knives. Both men were wound
ed. and 1t was admitted that everything
had been done fairly and in order, and,
tho counsel for the defense pleaded efo-
ouently for the application Of the same
law to his clients as is applied to duelists
of higher social position, sentences OF four
months imprisonment were passed.

Tit for Tat.

There has been no little irritation
in this country over the deportation
from Canada Of American engineers
employed to work on the Grand Trunk
Pacific. We are apt to forget that the
Canadian law regarding alien labor
is copied after ours, and was merely
intended to be an answer to our law.
It makes us furious, perhaps, to see
some engineers deprived of their jobs
because they are Americans, but we
forget that cases of Canadians being
sent back from the United States
when they have entered it under con-
tract or agreement are quite common.
A case in point occurred at Duluth
the other day.
q Frank Terry, a Canadian boy, was
turned back from Duluth last Satur-
to work in a general store at Grand
Rapids, Mimi, at the princely salary
Of $40 a month. Had Terry come over
in search of employment, with the
chances favorable to finding none, he
would have been admitted without
question. But simply because he was
assured Of a position he must be
turned back. Now who would have
been injured if thousand young Can
adams like Terry had come over to ac-
cept positions in the United States?
Canadian immigrants to this country
have always earned thir way and been
among the most desirable of our i'm
migrants, If, indeed, they are not the
most desirable.
What an absurdity that a young
man from Canada should be turned
away from our doors because he is as
sured Of a position that will support
him, when thousands of ignorant per-
sons, unable to speak the English
language and utterly unfamiliar with
our institutions are admitted yearly
from Europe because they have the
merit Of having no employment in
sight.
If we would take the trouble to in
quire into the matter we would find
that the lager part of the petty fric-
ton that sometimes occurs between
the United States and Canada can be
attributed in the first place to some
action on the part of the United States
