learning. The parents made every eff
fort to assist. They voluntarily con-
tributed their labor to the building of
school houses and often materials were
given. AS rapidly as possible the ed
ucation idea got hold and was just COM
ing on to fruition when the governor
WINS drowned.
But being a practical man, Lieuten-
ant Miller knew that if the people pros
pered IL would be through cultivation
Of their fertile soil. They were mostly
nomadic, wandering from place to place.
he exerted all his influence to get them
to settle down and make themselves
permanent homes, cultivating more
land. He told them the things to grow
and the manner of doing it, He taught
them the manner of marketing their
put on a boat that would be able to
carry their product to market. He took
charge of few men and caused them
to wax prosperous by following this
plan and the other natives seeing this
prosperity and being great imitators,
Immediately began following the ex-
ample.
How He Lost His Life.
The Tagbanos, or inland people, were
the favorites with the governor. They
were intelligent. tractable, musical, low
able. He determined that he would
do something for these people to fix
their habits and tie them to the soil
1t was in the carrying out of this plan
that he lost his life. The Aborlan river
runs inland through a fertile valley
near Puerta Pmncesa. Twenty-six
miles up this stream Governor Miller
selected the site for model colony he
planned to plant. Here he would erect
q school that should be an agricultural
and demonstration plant. Here he
would get the children of the Tagbanos
to go 30 the industrial school, On the
fertile lands that lay roundabout he
would locate their parents. These he
would show how to farm at the same
time that the children were attending
school. He would teach them the vir-
tues of farm life by actually demon"
strating it to them.
Governor Miller told his little plan
to the provisional government and Sc
cured an appropriation with which to
begin it, A little money he made go
q long way for the natives volunteered
to do the work without charge and
there was not much call for the inc
finish. The colony was this spring
drawing on toward completion and as
it was the particular pet of the gov
ernor he formed the hahit of running
up to see it every night after work IN
a gasoline launch.
II was while returning from one of
these trips that the launch was upset.
Governor Miller, though great, strong
athletic man. had the vulnerable point
of an inability to swim. The men who
knew him were surprised to know that
he should drown IN narrow river.

Strangely, these natives have the
quality in them that wants to learn.
The Malay mind is acquisitive-i is that
Of the student. Wherever schools have
been established they have been crowd
ed to the doors. Lieutenant Miller
turned first to the school. He was I'm
able to get American teachers to go
into the wilderness. He was unable to
secure even Filipinos from other sec
tions where education had already got
ten hold. But he started good school
in Puerto Prncesa where he and Mrs.
Miller and what assistants he was able
to secure, began the development of a
teaching force. He prevailed upon the
various villages TO send their brightest
young people to this school that they
might return to the villages after two
years and teach. He rcsured an occa-
sional recruit from the outside.
The first crop of teachers, native
boys and girls but two years out of
the brush, would hardly be regarded
as classically educated in Boston and
would be considerably puzzled by the
teachers examinations put on by most

against such exposure. but the young
officer believed that he knew the ma
| rlves better than they and that be was
safe with them. He established himself
at Puerto Princesa, which had once been
a Spanish town Of some Importance
but had become deserted city of the
south seas. Here he made his capital
and here he began his work with the
natives.
Worked Among People.
The people in the immediate vicinity
of Puerto Princesa had known some
thing of the outside world through the
Spanish. but their memory of their for
mer masters was not such as to en-
courage intimacy. But the new gov
ernor became acquainted with a few
and for these he began by healing their
sick, A man Of great physical strength
and much energy. Lieutenant Miller
worked among those people Immediately
around him. and they soon learned that
all his acts were for their good They
carried the stories to an ever widening
circle.
Soon he was able to muster num-

The natives had been ineffective u.

prepared before he struck blow.
Then one summer night the news wps
brought that the pirates were ashore
at village up the coast and tho nn,

and animals, The raiders had gorged

The governor massed his coustabulsyy

They supposed of course he could swim.
But when the boat turned over the king
OF Palawan, the savior of the people,
the man who had started the thousands
on the road to development, went un-
tremendously to the bottom and his ma
tive companions dived for hours before
they were able to recover his body.
So there had settled down upon Pal
avian the gloom of the great loss. The
people mourn the death Of the Ameri.
can as they have never grieved for any
thing before. The great work which he
has established for them is at a stand
still and its future is in doubt. Such
work requires the genius of man who

ice and the discretion Of the men high

And the Moros, these Samals or gyp-
sizes of the sea, are against their depre-

High Tribute to Good Man.
Before a congressional committee
last winter Major General Bell. chief
of staff for the army, was telling of
some of the remarkable men of that
service and the effective work they
were doing. Lieutenant Miller was
cited as the most prominent of these.
General Bell told of his work and con-
cluded by saving:
81 have heard it stated that he could
not be replaced by company, probably
not by battalion, and possibly not
by regiment OF troops.'
This was merely from the military
standpoint of keeping the peace and as
suredly the island overrun by troops
would not have the beneficial effect
upon the natives that was being ac-
complished by Miller.
Lieutenant Miller's body was given
military burial at Camp Jossman, near
Puerto Princosa. The provisional gov
ernment is experimenting with Cover
nor Evans as temporary man to fll his
place. In the meantime it is looking for
a strong man with the big idea and
the knack Of it to be virtual king Of the
Palawansr to leave the stamp of his
personality upon the plastic minds Of
