Wild Trihn Of Poets

Among the wild tribes to be found
In the Philippines are the Bogobos,
the most picturesque people in the
tropics. Their origin is unknown, and
all sorts of opinions have been ex.
pressed concerning them. One tale
told of them is that their first ances-
tors were all poets and musicians
and that the dislike for the practical
which is always noticeable among
them has come down through the gen
erations.
Those that have taught among the
Bogobos say that, given a song or a
poem to learn, and they will study
and dream over it for hours, but give
the Bogobo a problem in arithmetic
and he Immediately becomes Il! and
wants to go home.
Living at Santa Cruz, in the Davao
district is Miss Benedict, University
of Chicago woman who is collecting
everything peculiar to the BogoDo.
1t has been found that the beadwork
done by them is quite like that of
the American Indian, but there is nc
other likeness in the races beyond

Washington. May g. The officers
and enlisted men of the army yester-
day won their fight for increased pay
when the house of representatives,
after q debate of two hours agreed to
the conference report of the army APP
preparation bill. An appropriation of
S7,000,O00 was made for the purpose,
s5,0O0,000 of which will go to the en-
listed men.
But little progress was made in the
senate in the agricultural appropri-
ton bin. the session being devoted to
a discussion upon the principle of
forest reserves and the administra-
ton OF that service. Senator Teller
concluded his remarks in opposition
to lump sum appropriation OF $780,
600 for the further development of
the forest reserve system. Senator
Nelson of Minnesota and Senator Dol
liver of Iowa spoke in support of the
reserve service.

ROOT IN RIGHT PLACE,
DIPLOMATS OPINION
Belief Is General That the Secretary Peculiarly Need
ed in State Department Conditions in Orient and
South America Are Pointed Out.

That Secretary of STATE Root is pa-
culiarly needed at the State Department
at this time and for an indefinite period
in the future Is the impression among
diplomats. both American and foreign.
On the American side. matters re-
lating to the Oriental situation and TO
the forthcoming adjustment of relations
among the United States, Colombia.
and Panama are given as making it es-
pecially important that he remain.
Among the foreign diplomats many Tea-
sons are urged.
South American countries are espe-
cially confident of the disposition Of the
United States toward them so long as
Mr. Root is at the departments head.
The Root tour of South America made
an impression which involved a person.
al element that could not Wen be trans
ferred. The South American foreign
Offices are confident they understand
Mr.. Root Whether they would have
the same assurance about a new man
is not so sure. Root has their acqualnt-
ance and confidence. Another would
have to earn it as he has done.
Tariff Question.
Then there are matters bearing ~.
foreign commercial relations, especially
as involved with the coming tarifT re-
vision. which make It desirable that a
trained and up-to-the-minute statesman
have charge. The new tariff is expected
to bring various problems which may
ultimately require consideration through
the State Department II a maximum
and minimum tariff shall be the out
come Of the deliberations OF Congress,
there will be 2 multitude OF very prac-
ticaI commerciay negotiations to be con-
sidered In the succeeding year OF two.
For these things Root is considered pc
cuIiarly equipped.
When il was first announced that
Secretary Root was likely TO be trans
ferred from the foreign office TO the
Senate there was a remarkable chorus
OF expression from the diplomatic quar-
ters. Not only were the most earnest
