CHAPLAIN ]. 7. AXTOH
TALKS OF THE ROROS
Interesting Lecture Is Given at
Phillips congregational
Church.

Chaplain John T. Axton, who recent
ly returned from the Philippines, de-
lvcrcd very interesting lecture in
Phillips Congregation church Sunday
evening, summing up observations made
iu the islands, and picturing the wild
mon. head hunters, aud the mythology
of the people. lie spoke Of the mercl'
full work which the United States is
doing in the Philippines. How it is
giving every man chance to earn his
living and have all tho proceeds Of his
labor.
There is no slavery existing Ill the
islands. Mr.. AXtou said. and the only
thing that can be construed Us slavery,
by The natives, is that The American
government is insisting that the Fill
pinos shall be subject TO the same laws
as the Americans. He spoke of the
work which tho various churches arc
doing in the islands, and of how the
Roman Catholics have gained grorfhd
since they began their work among the
unframed people. The way these
churches are correcting the islanders
is indeed wonderful, said Mr.. Axtou.
The work IL being done there along
The same lines as that which is fol
lowed by Booker L. Washington. in
bringing the negro TO a better under
standing of what is right and wrong.
Just now there arc twenty Protestant
churches in the field, while on the out
skirts and in many of the small vii
lagos, other churches have been estab-
ing with success. The PrcSbyterIaus
are gaining IN the favor Of The natives
every day.
Mr.. Axtou confined his talk chiefly
10 that of discussing the Moros. The
Moros occupy an island called Mindauo,
which has 10000 inhabitants. Prcsid.
ing over the domain is the sultan, who.
while not very well Ncrscd himself on
the history of The islands. has in his
possession some literature. which. in the
opinion of many. is rather doubtful, but
what he has is very good reading mat.
ter and would fill n couple of books.
This literature is very old. The island.
crs also have 141 plates, upou which
are inscribed legends Of the island
The Moros strictly adhere 10 the
teachings of the KoraI, and would not
touch lIuuor under any circumstance. 1t
Is n penilentIary olrense to sell The
natives DtoXicauts Of any sort Not.
withstanding this fact. the Moros sell
their daughters IN marriage much after
the cnstom which is in vogue in Tur.
heN. INC NuruS are ol tnc Mohamme-
dan faith. aud do not touch hog meat
Of ary sort Mr.. ASton pointed ont
many features about the life Of the
Noros.
An amusing feature of Mr.. Axton $
solourn in the Philippines was when he
was asked To unite two Moros i'm mar.
lia@c. After travelling for twenty FIVE
miles. instead Of one couple 10 be unit,
cd, there were thirty-two. The next
morning twelve more arrived at thc
post, and The following week, he made
score more happy AS Mr.. Axton is
. very entertaining tslker, he had thc
undivided attention of the large audi
cncc during his address.
