Native 10 q Queer Paradox, His Trait.
Being tumble of Opposites.
While there are a variety Of opin.
Ions concerning the character and ca.
pacity Of the Filipino, everybody will
agree that he is bundle of coatradic-
lions, writes William z. Curtis In the
Chicago Record-Herald. He is pas.
sionately attached to his home, and
cannot be induced to emigrate or leave
1t, no matter how humble it is, yet he
does nothing to improve or beautify it
or keep 1t in order or add to the com.
forts and conveniences Of living. He
has no taste for decoration like the
Japanese and Chinese. Any kind Of
cabin of palms with leaky roof and
an earthen floor is good enough for
him. He asks no more than a pig or
goat or a dog, is content with a
place to lie down and sleep, and it is
difficult to drive him away from the
corner in which he is in the habit Of
lying.
He is devoted to his wife and his
family, but will do nothing to improve
their condition, make no provision for
their future and wastes his wages at
the gambling table when they are in
need of food and clothing. He will
live on his wife's wages so long as
she will support him and will let his
little ones die for lack of medical at
tention. Half of the deaths in the
Philippine Islands are Of children from
the neglect of their parents, and yet
the parents, particularly the fathers
tdolize their little ones.
The Filipino is fanatic In his love
Of independence, vet, as 1 explained
to you the other day, he is willing to
live in peonage. He has hysterical
emotion that he calls patriotism. 1t is
not what we consider love of coun.
try or a desire to benefit his fellow
citizens, but is a mixture of vanity,
ambition, craving for power, love Of
parade and excitement
He will sacrifice everything for q
cause; he will even lay down his life,
yet he will plumber it, betray it and
desert II II 1t does not crafty his am
bition or personal whims.
He is naturally dishonest, yet he
will spend his whole life in slavery to
work out the debts Of his ancestors.
He will swindle and pilfer from his
employers, yet he will defend their
persons and their interests with his
life. He will steal from his master
whenever he wants anything rather
than ask for 1t, but he will not allow
anyone else to rob those interests he is
looking after. Concerning his homes
ty, all agree that he never will steal
what he does not want He is not q
burglar or house breaker or a high
wayman, although he sometimes be-
comes ladrone for love of adventure
and excitement If he wants anything
that belongs to another person he ap-
propriates it regardless of conse-
QuenceS.

Il don't believe that we could get
along without that mirror at the back
Of the shop" said the druggist to a
customer who questioned the wisdom
Of expanding SO much money upon one
big piece of plate glass. Still, it did
not save US from losing another lot of
plasters the other day. now that the
plaster thieves are out of Jail.
you never heard of the plaster
thieves? Well, l wish 1 hadn't. No,
it is not that people are in special need
of being plastered up. but plasters are
good deal of value in one big fiat box
Of plasters. There is no individual
mark on them to prevent their being
sold again and they are lighter and
easier to carry than bottles. Plaster
stealing has become regular business.
A couple Of young fellows who have
made us their victims several times
were sent up to serve term for the
offense. We know they are out again
now, for they paid us visit only the
other day and took off few boxes in
the same old way. You couldn't think
we could be caught half dozen times,
mirror or no mirror, but we have been.
Il was taken in the first time. Two
young fellows came in and gave me
small order that took me away for
few minutes, and while 1 turned my
back they put several boxes of plas-
tiers under their coats and walked out
with them, and didn't know it for
some time. remembered them, how
ever, and the next time l CHANGED to
come in just as some one else had
taken small order, but that time l
was in time to keep them from taking
anything. 1t wasn't long before they
WERE again, however, and that time
they were caught. 1t was the mirror
that did it. for the man who waited
on them was one who did not know
them. But he saw suspicious move
ment, pounced upon them, made them
put down half a dozen boxes and told
them If they ever dared to show their
faces again in the place he would
throw them out They have been in
Jail since, but now they are out and
we have suffered once more. What
do you think of that for persistence

and as for clothing-well, it would
take column to list it. The greatest
care is taken to prevent him from
germs. Servants change their cos
tunes before going near him. He
travels in fumigated conveyances. He
has been studiously kept aloof from
the least speck Of the proverbial peck
Of dirt that every one is supposed to
absorb during life.
At the age Of twenty months he
was obliged to take sea voyage to
Europe to save his life. At the pres
ent time he is said to be as strong and
healthy as the average boy Of his age.
Not long ago he was present in person
at the dedication of a $4,000 library
willed to Brown University by his
father.

A HISTORIC CHURCH.

1oTk State Edifice Where Sett1era
Sought Refuge from Savaxes.
The trolley cars which fly between
the cities and villages of the Mohawk
valley. New York, have made more
convenient Of access and thus opened
up for more general inspection the
many historic places of interest in this
locality. One of those perhaps least
visited and yet possessing rare points
of interest is located about fifteen
miles east Of Utica. Where the Kay
ahoora joins the Mohawk, between
Herkimer and Little Falls, one may
catch glimpse of the old stone church
of kouari. Familiarity known as Fort
Herkimer Church, which was original
~ stockade.
From the river side one cannot see
1t clearly, for it is almost hidden by
tanGles Of wild grape. But from the
highway there is nothing to obstruct
the view, and it stands out conspicu-
ously-simple, strong and impressive.
In the shadow of the gray walls,
where the sweet briar climbs and
clings, lie tombstones whose inscrip-
tons are almost obliterated, but among
which one may decipher fragments Of
names which recall the personalities
and the deeds of long ago, and which
awaken many tender memories among
the people Of the valley. The church
yard is kept In good order, and among
the fallen stones stand shafts of mar
BILE of modern design. Likewise there
have crept into the interior of the
church modern comforts. 1t is now
haven of peace to the villagers. In the
days when the whites were few and
the savages many in these parts, it
was a haven of refuge for the for
mer when they were assailed by the
murderous red men.
The church looks able to weather the
storms of another 100 years. Yet it is

we got aboard the train at the bridge
there was crowd, Of course. and it
seemed impossible for us to get
through and aboard the cars. l asked
two or three burly members of the
community who blocked our passage
particularly if they would not stand
aside and let US get a chance at the
cars, but they gave me the merry guf-

'The man sank trembling to the
