EARNED THE SINGING REToRr
Fresh "Drummers" SiIenccd by Sweet
Old Quakeress.


Old Quakeress.
In the train sat poor old QHak-
eress. She wore silver gray dress,
snowy collar, and such sweet hat.
She was big, handsome woman, and
her large Madonna face beamed with
beneyolence and love. A ruby or
diamond ornament would have mar
red her beauty.
Two fresh, smart young CONNER
clai travellers came In the car at q
station and sat down just back OF
Ter. One could easily observe by
their actions that neither OF them had
much experience "on the road" and
one passenger allowed that 1t is
their first trip as drummers.
After they had discussed the liquor
and tobacco trade While ard told
each other what large orders they
had received in different towns they
had made they looked at the old
woman ahead OF them. smiled at each
other, then one Of the fresh young
sEipes said;
Fred, guess the Old lady is In
nated with Quaker yeast.
Turning In her seat, without lifting
her eyes, the old woman remarked SO
low that only few passengers heard
it.:
"Tf thy father and mother had con-
sumed more sweet Quaker yeast and
less bad beer and tobacco, thee would
have been better raised and better
bred

The Protestant pastors who were present
were not astonished at the audacious pro-
pOsal. because they knew pretty well what
sort OF chap AgHpay was and were pre-
pared to hear almost anything from him,
but before the meeting adjourned they
gave him some wholesome admonition and
advice. They told him that before his or

to correct the morals of his priests and

Agltpay's Strong Following.
Nevertheless. Aglipay's appeals to the
people on the theory that ''the Philippines
belong to the Filipinos'' brought him very
strong following A large portion Of the
native padres joined him, and he claimed to
have 30 per cent more Of the parishes
throughout the archipelago. Archbishop
Harry contended that he never got more
than hundred or so, but he probably had
several hundred-most Of them parishes
which had been deserted by the friars and
were left entirely without priests. In such
places Aglipay was accustomed to install
priests of his following and take possession
of the church property. In several towns
his followers actually threw out the regular
pastors by violence. He had churches in
nineteen provinces throughout the archi-
pelago. and the largest number were In the
diocese of Bishop Rocker, who used to be

supreme court of the archipelago original
jurisdiction over all questions involving the
titles to church property. Suits were
brought in nineteen different provinces to
called National Catholic Church of the
Philippines and to compel the municipal
authorities to take charge of the property
formerly owned and used by the regular
Roman Catholic clergy and to turn 1t over
to the recognized representatives of that
church. In many cases the municipal au-
thorities Immediately confessed judgment
and in other cases they would not make
any defense. Vast volumes Of evidence
were submitted. arguments were heard al
length on both sides and finally the first
decision was rendered in the case of Bishop
Bariin against Padre Ramirez, one of Agli-
pays priests. who had taken possession OF
the parish church and parsonage at La
gonoy.
The Recent Decision.
The cable dispatches state that the de-
cision VIII cover the majority Of all the
churches that are in contention and will
result In the election Of Aglipay and his
they are now installed.
The decision appears to be In the same
line as that recently made by the French
council of state III It's Interpretation Of the
separation law. II refuses to transfer
church property to any organization that Is
not strictly OrthOd0x ana under the 5urts-
dicti0n of the head of the denomination to
which It belongs. Aglipay commended that
the houses Of worship and the parsonages
were the property Of the people of the par
ishes, who had right to use them for any
purpose that they desired and employ any
priest they preferred. When he found a
church vacant or unused he would place
one of his priests in charge and organize
among the people what the French call q
cultural association" which recognized his
authority as the self-appointed head of an
Independent national Philippine church. In
many cases the municipal authorities rec
ognized his claims and have protected him
IN the occupation Of the property. The
court. however. decides that the properties
belong to the Church Of Rome. which built
the houses of worship and occupied them
for many years.
This decision will doubtless cause the
collapse of the Aglipay Independent church
movement. 1t began to go down rapidly
when the Rev. Father Jorg Barlin, ma
tive priest at Nueva Caceras. was or
dained as bishop last June. That was the
first time a native Filipino has ever been
made a bishop. and the failure to promote
the native clergy has always been serious
cause Of dissatisfaction. Every bishop has
