The San Juan islander. [volume] (Friday Harbor, Wash.) 1898-1914, 1905-01-21

~~S~~s~seSN~
In the interior Of the island of Min
danao in the Philippines, there are
many natives who live In houses In
the treetops. Where the forests are
thick the entrances to villages are
often at considerable distance. and BY
way Of suspended bridges from tree
to tree. Thus one may walk directly
beneath cluster Of houses, says the
author Of The Gems of the East"
without suspecung its presence.
On one occasion, by mere luck. while
struggling through q bamboo forest, he
came to place where. resting against
the thick growth, was a severed bam-
boo Of great height, with notches cut
In 1t. Recognizing 1t as a Mansaka
ladder, he mounted it to see what was
ut the summit.
To his amazement, there lay on the
top Of the vegetation two long. horizon
tai bamboos on which muddy feet had
trodden, and beyond these other bam-
boos, forming path or bridge. He
signaled his men to be quiet and fol-
low, and then proceeded to cross the
first length of the rickety way, some
twenty feet above the ground. When
he had gone about thirty yards, he
came suddenly out into q clearing
where were four large elevated houses.
The path he was on led to the nearest
one, and they were all connected by
bridges.
To cross the shaky bamboo over the
open was a problem for one less bird
like than the tree jewellers; but taking
OF his shoes, the traveller went ahead.
He had scarcely reached the middle
and most ticklish part when the Man
sakas in the houses detected his pres
ence, With chorus Of yells they sent
stones and arrows at him, and one old
woman crawled out on the bridge and
shook 1t so that only by using both
hands could he cling to 1t. At last he
was able to stand up and make the
sign Of peace. The old woman stopped
and stared at him. while his men
crowded up on the bamboo, and pre-
pared to discharge their guns into the
houses, If necessary. to protect him.
The traveller called his interpreter.
Tell her she must not be angry
with me-" he said. Tell her she looks
ugly when she Is angry. Tell her am
a friend, and carry no bolo, nor even
a spear. If they lay down their arms
I will kill no one"
The old woman, who still had some
stones clutched In her hands, hesitated
for while, and then regretfully
dropped the missiles. The traveller
went toward her, and caressed her
SCARED face. She seized his hand In
hers, which were trembling, and the
men and women in the houses stilled
their racket.
The old woman was the chiefs wife,
and bore the scars Of many fights. She
said they had mistaken the party for
slave-traders. Being treasured, she
turned and led the party into the vii
lage, and there they were entertained
at feast She even offered to adopt
the traveller and make him chief, II he
would stay, but he declined the offer
firmly and without regret.
