ton with President Rryan's discourse
on Behaviour" Although at first ap-
pearing to be sensational the thought
was so qualified that it was not so.
President Bryan made the point that
frequent attendance at church does
not benefit the church S0ers when
on Monday their conduct IS no better
than it was on the Saturday preced-
ing.
The emotional life of the American
people, the speaker feared would
prove the ruin of the nation. He said,
ANY emotion high or holy which does
not tend to higher or holier living is
dangering" The speaker cited exam,
pies to illustrate his point.
He told of the wealthy woman who
attended the theatre and shed great
tears at the suffering pictured on the
stage Following the performance the
woman went from the theatre to ter
coach where the colored driver sat
shivering in the biting cold. Hurry
now. you colored rascal said the wo-
man her breast still filled with the
emotions of the suffering shown in the
play, get me home out of the cold be-
fore | freeze
Behaviour, President Bryan dweit
on in the largest sense. He declared
that the good student, farmer or law
yer was governed entirely by his be-
haviour, not his department but his
behaviour in the face of any situa-
ton which might present itself.
Dwelling on will power, the speaker
showed that strong will power did not
necessarily lie in clenching the fists
or stamping the foot This was Il
Illustrated with pleasing examples aud
all told the lecture was splendid.
Monday afternoon, President Bryan
scored the Sinking student and said
that hereafter no student would be
given full credit at Franklin college
who did not get a grade above So per

that when he saw the bad light which
this exhibition of the wild tribes of the
island threw on the entire situation ne
resolved wherever and whenever pos
sible to try and correct it.
President Bryan said there was as
much difference between the seven mil
lions of civilized Filipinos and the
wild men. of which there are mil
lion, as between the civilized Ameri-
can and the Indian. To get a correct
view of the Philippines, President Bry-
an said that it was necessary that this
line of demarkation be firmly estab-
lished in ones mind.
Continuing. President Bryan spoke IL
part: Il will dismiss the wild tribes
from the subject of my talk. as l have
no opinion as to what can be done for
them | want to talk of the civilized
millions and of how to treat them.
They are a childlike people and not ed
ucated to the ways of the world. Like
children they are alert and very quick
to learn. but like children, they lack
perception. are tickle and like hum
drum and noise. If you are an educa-
tional man, religious man or states
man, and want to deal with the Philip
pinos, you must handle them as chill
dren.
"A good illustration of the Filipino
character is shown in the fact that they
have 81 public holidays and celebrate
the Fourth of July with more noise
and enthusiasm than we do
They Prefer America.
-Four Filipino students, among the
seventy sent to this country to be edu-
Gated, took up work at Indiana univer
sity, which institution l was then serv-
ing At one time these young men
were at my home and / asked them
whether they would rather have the
Americans clear out or remain in the
islands. Their answer was that they
would rather have the Americans re-
main. as they would be gobbled up
sooner or later by Germany or Japan
and in case they were gobbled they
would rather have the Americans in
charge"
President Bryan then related an Incl
dent which occurred few days after
his talk with the four students. which
incident showed clearly the fickleness
and childlike character of the students
who are the highest type of the is
landers. The incident occurred at
Bedford and was on the occasion of a
visit to that city by William Jennings
Bryan. One of the students was call
ed on to speak and thinking that Bry-
an would like him declare for indie
pendence he did so. The utterance
was sent out over the country and was
regarded by many as significant. Pres
ident Bryan said the students spent
much time at his home after the Incl
dent in trying to explain why one of
their number had spoken so.
The speaker told of the superficial
politeness of the Filipinos, ingrained IN
them from long domination by the
Spanish. This domination of the Span
ish. President Bryan thought. might
stand for years in the way of the Unit
ed States fully solving the problem.

FAILURE OF BIG FIRM
MiLLIKEN BROS, OF NEW YORK,
ARE BANKRUPT.
Did Too Much Business and LiabiIi-
ties VIII Reach G,JOO,OOO-Nen-
lucky Town Almost Wrecked by
Storm of Unprecedented Fury.

Creditors filed petition in bankruptcy
against Milllken Bros, Incorporated, in
the United States Circuit Court in New
York. The liabilities are about $500
600, of which S3,o00.O0O is represented
by first mortgage bonds. The unsecured
liabilities are S3,500,000 Milliken Bros.
carried on worldwide business in struc-
tural steel and iron work Ii is alleged
in the petition that the corporation with
in the last few days has admitted in
writing its insolvency TO creditors and
has expressed a willingness 10 be adjudg
ed bankrupt 1t is understood that the
letitioning creditors have made an appli-
cation to Judge Holt in the United States
Circuit Court for the appointment of a
receiver for the business. The firm has
an enormous plant at Mariners Harbor.
Staten Island. and executive offices at II
Broadway. The petitioning creditors are
the Niles Bement-Pond Company, with a
claim of S1.62S, and an additional claim
of $4,000 on note not due until June
"a; John A. Roebling's Sons, $3.50;
Snyder & Black. $403, and Robert w.
Hunt & Co., about S400. 1t was stated
at the Office of the firm that the assets
of Milliken Bros. are believed to cover all
Indebtedness. The bankruptcy proceed
ings viii doubtless involve the adjudica-
tion of one of the largest estates that
the courts have been called upon to deal
with in recent years.
