FILIPINO sAvAeEs ARRIVE.

st. Louis, April S.-Nearly 300 Fill
ipinos of the widest tribes in the
archipelago have just arrived at the
Worlds Fair grounds and are quar-
tered on the Filipino reservation.
When the warmer spring days come
each tribe will inhabit its own partic-
ular kind of habitation. The tree
dwellers will build huts in the trees,
from native materials now lying loose
on the ground. The lake-dwellers will
erect their houses on stills in the wa
ters Of Laguna de Bay, the lake that
fronts the reproduced walled city of
Manila. Other tribes will build
shacks of nipa grass and bamboo and
go to housekeeping for the season,
just as they keep house at home.
Most of the Filipinos belong to
tribes commonly designated as head
hunters"
In the collection are men, women
and children-and a monkey The
monkey is a tiny fellow, and came
through billed as human baby. 1t
was against the regulations for any
animals to be admitted with the Fill
ipinos, but this little monkey was
clasped to the breast of an Igorrote
woman and was passed by the inspect
or, who supposed it was a baby.
The tribes represented are the
Igrottoes, the Suroce, the Tinganis,
the Bontocs, the Negritos and the
Mangianes. There are also eighty
Visayans, who are of a higher order
OF humanity. They include a native
band of fourteen performers. All Fill
ipinos are decidedly musical. The 9TH
er tribes were collected from amongst
the wild tribes, men and women. to
come to st, Louis. Several entire
families were brought along. The
Negritos, the smallest people, have a
mokeyish appearance.
Most of the Filipinos-the Visayans
always eXcepted-go practically nak-
ed. They wear what is known as a
gee-string, to cover the loins, and a
small hat on the back of the head.
"iS h"I eSl NeS aS pocket III Wnlcn
to Keep their personal belongings.
The belongings consist chiefly of
pipes and cigar-holders, of most cur
! ious pattern. Men, women and child
rem are constant smokers. Some of
the natives use their ears for poclI-
cts, having slits cut in them. Their
pipes and cigar-holders are poked in
