islands. Ia the first, are two huts on
either side of the entrance; one, of the
Negritos; the other, of the Igorrotes.
Near these huts are life-sized models in
wax of natives in various attitudes,
such as hulIing rice, aiming bow and
arrow, making FIRE by friction, and
weaving.
The second section shows the devel-
opment of the natural resources under
native initiative. Here are displayed
various rude implements of husbandry
and the chase, hand made ornaments
and household utensils. There is
curious looking contrivance made of
joint of bamboo yard long and six
inches in diamater, containing wheel
with notched edge against which
loosened strip of the bamboo strikes,
producing sharp rafting sound. One
wonders what its use can be until he
reads the label: s'Rattler, used to
brighten locnsts from the rice fields"
Another contrivance consists of two
joints of bamboo fastened together.
Each of these contains a rod at the
lower end of which is fastened bunch
of feathers. These rods being raised
and lowered alternately, produce blast
of air. This is the native blacksmith's
forge. There are huge sea shells yard
across them and bamboo furniture and
partitions.
The other two sections show the de-
velopment under American influence
Here are fine ornaments in pearl and
silver and samples of work done by
students under American teachers.
Here is abundant evidence that there
is being carried out in these islands the
policy of our national government as
outlined in Secretary Taft's speech to
the first Philippine assembly in 1907, in
which be says: 'The avowed policy Of
the national administration has been
and is to govern the islands, having re-
gard to the il terest and welfare OF the
Philippine people, and by the spread of
general primary and industrial educa,
ton, and by practice in partial political
control to fit the people themselves to
maintain a stable and well-ordered
government, affording equality of right
and opportunity to all citizens. The
policy looks to the improvement of the
people both intellectually and in self
governing capacity" The English
language is now Taught in all the Phil
ippine schools, thus affording the ma
| tives a common medium of communica-
ton that puts them in touch with
modern civilization. Formerly, the
many and diverse dialects formed the
greatest possible obstacle to political
and commercial development.
In all these three buildings devoted
to our PARKWAY possessions, there are
exhibits Of school work done under the
guidance of American teachers; and it
is qualification to every patriotic
American to know that the people there
are learning our own language and GUS
toms, and will soon be raised from the
darkness of barbarism to our own en-
lightened civilization

away some of their trade, they are
without a just ground, because they
lose their trade merely from a state
ment of the fact. The straight whisky
men are relieved from all future at
tempts to pass off neutral spirits
whisky as straight whisky. More than
this, if straight whisky or any other
kind of whisky is aged in the wood,
the fact may be branded on the pack
age and this claim to public favor may
truthfully be put forth.
Thus the purpose of the pure food
law is fully accomplished in respect
of misbranding and truthful branding.
THE decision follows the lines of
the conclusions reached by the royal
commission of Great Britain and re-
verses the verdict of former President
Roosevelt, former Attorney General
Bonaparte. Solicitor General Bowers
and DR.. Wiley, chief of the bureau of
chemistry. The Roosevelt
Wiley order denied the use Of the
word whisky in branding to all liquor
except straight whisky the whisky
which is aged in charred oak casks.
Mr.. Bowers extended the use of the
word to liquors made Of 'rectified' and
'redistilled' spirits. President Taft
goes a step further and includes
blends and whisky made from neutral
spirits "

HANGED TO STEAM PIPE
Man Who Shot Whole Family Is
Victim of Lynchers.

Hurley, Va, Dec. 27.-Following
the killing here on Christmas eve of
Samuel Baker and the serious wound
the formers old enemy, Henry Pen
nington, a mob of one hundred cfti-
zens took Pennington from Jail, where
he had been incarcerated under heavy
guard, and hanged him.
Pennington, who had been drinking,
picked a quarrel with Baker and shot
him while the latter was OIL his way
to a Sunday school Christmas tree
with his wife. his two children and a
friend, Wyatt Meadows. Seeing that
he had killed Baker, Pennington
started to run away when Mrs. Baker
called after Pennington and implored
him to help her take the body home.
The ruse worked and Pennington
went back to the spot where his victim
lay dead. Bent upon. avenging the
dead, Mrs. Baker grabbed Penning-
toms pistol from his pocket and shot
twice at him. Her aim was bad. Pen
nington recovered possession of the
pistol and then shot the woman and
attempted to kill Meadows and the two
children.
Pennington was captured by posse
on the outskirts of town after an ex-
change of shots with the deputies, who
badly wounded him. Later the mob
was quietly organized. the guard was
overpowered and Pennington was
taken to the engine room of a lumber
mill nearby and hanged to steam
pipe.

FALLS CITY is NOW SLATED.
New Rumor Places NJ. p. Division
Headquarters in That City.

Atchison, Kan, Dec 27.-Superin-
tendent DeBernardi OF the Missouri
Pacific says the division headquarters
will not be moved to Falls City before
next summer, since the bad weather
has greatly delayed work on the Falls
City terminals. He adds that while
Falls City will gain a few roundhouse
men, it will not gain many trainmen,
as most of the crews will have head
quarters in Kansas City and Omaha
after Falls City becomes the division
point. Atchison will suffer somewhat
as result of the removal of the di
vision headquarters, but not as much
as commonly believed. Many of the
trainmen who own property here will
not move their families for a long
time. Besides, the superintendent has
great faith in Vice President Clarkc's
statement that the Missouri Pacific will
not hurt AtchLson, but will place ex-
tensive shops here and increase the
number of shopmen. The round
house men now employed at Auburn
will be mo ved to Falls City, but none
of the roundhouse men and shopmen
in Atchison will be moved. Seven
crews which now put I'D at Auburn
will make headquarters at Falls City.
superintendent DeBernardi laughs at
the idea of St. Joe becoming the ter
minal of the Central Branch. So
while it is true that Atchison will not
be benefited by the removal of the
division headquarters, the town will
in no sense be wiped off the map.
