VALUE OF THE PHILIPPINES.
Acquisition of Islands Has Increased
Traffic Between America
and Asia.

OF immense advantage to our people,
both for observation and for develop
ment of trade with the orient, is the posi-
ton of the United States in the Philip
pine islands, says H. w Scott, in "The
Asiatic Trade of Our Pacific States" in
Century. To the acquisition of this great
archipelago by the United States is due
a large part of the increased activity of
the traffic between America and eastern
Asia. 1t is not merely the governments
transport business that swells this COM
merce. nor yet the supplies of forage,
lumber and provisions purchased in our
Pacific states, for use in the public serv-
ice in the Philippines, that constitute the
chief Importance of this new movement.
1t is found rather in the fact that through
our possession of the islands we are
placed almost directly in touch with the
entire commerce of eastern Asia, and are
in position to enter into it on all sides
with increasing advantages

FOR SAFETY OF TRAVELLERS
Railway to Render Third
Rail Harmless.

The Berlin elevated and Under
ground electric railway has installed
in the drivers compartment a short
circuiting switch, so that. the current
passing along the third rail may be
earthed and the fuses blown at the
power station, thus rendering the sec
ton dead. An alternative means of
short circuiting is afforded by port
able bar which is provided with in
sulating brushes of some length, and
which can be placed by the driver
across the third and return rails
These devices are intended only for
use in the tunnel sections Of the rail-
way il it should be necessary for pas
sengers to alight from a train and
proceed to the next station, or to the
escape shafts which are being formed
between the stations. The tunnels are
now lighted from two Independent cir
cults at intervals of 81 feet, and fire
extinguishers are located in them at
intervals of 325 feet The hydrants
and sand boxes at the stations have
been doubled, and each station is d.
rectly connected with the fire brigade
by means of an alarm wire In addi-
ton to these arrangements the car
riages are equipped with portable sand
boxes and with other fire extinguish-
ing appliances using water

PHILIPPINE GUTTA-PERcHA.
Method of Harvesting in the Islands
Of Mindanao and Tawi-
Tawi.

The last source Of gutta percha devel-
oped is that in the Philippine islands,
but here the regions which produce this
material for the market are confined to
the islands of Mindanao and Tawi-Tawi.
The method of harvesting used at pres
ent by the natives, says the Electrical
Review. consists in cutting down the large
trees, ringing the trunk, looping off the
larger branches, and then catching the
milk as it flows out. This is very waste
full, as but a small part of the milk is
secured Fortunately, however, this
process pays only with large trees, so
that the smaller ones are not destroyed.
This method of harvesting has been pro-
hlbited and rules provided for tapping
the trees, but these have never been en-
forced. At the present time the gutta
percha trees have disappeared from the
coast regions and are along the large
rivers.
The various governments with trop-
1cal possessions in the east are study
ing the gutta percha and rubber situa-
ton, with view of determining proper
methods of propagation and harvesting.

GIRLS FROM PORTO RICO,
Native Maidens Leave Their Island
Home to Work in the
United States.

There was "a sad but plucky contin-
gent of Porto Rican girls on board the
San Juan as she steamed out of the
harbor last night, bound for New Or
leans, from where they will proceed
to St Louis to begin an independent
struggle for their livelihood. Their
families and friends were as visibly
affected. The enterprising and fearless
girls, the Oldest perhaps not over 10
years old, numbered %, says a recent
issue of the San Juan News.
Contracts have been made with them
by Francis Lynch, the representative
of the st. Louis Cordage company, to
give employment to the girls in their
factories, as weavers or in any other
branch of the trade for which the girls
may show particular aptitude. The
company has bound itself to pay for
their passage from their respective
homes in the island to ST. Louis. In
that city they will be lodged in COM
Portable and modern quarters and pro-
vided with table board and other nee
essaries. In addition to this, they will
be paid so cents day. which will be
pert OF enter another department in
the factory. The firm did not place
Eny stipulated time in their contracts,
except as to guarantee them work for
ss long period as they wished to re-
main.
The company has not, however, pro-
vided against the whims or change of
mind of any of the girls. If any one
finds after being there a short time
that she cannot stay, she has the priv
lege of resigning her position. The
company has no hold on her whatso-
ever. The purpose of securing Porto
Rican labor is due to certain conf
dence that the people of this island
have natural fitness for this kind Of
work.
The venture is wholly experimental,
but if it proves satisfactory more peo-
pie will be taken to st. Louis
