A MIsREPREsENTEp RACE.

The Filipino people are a much mis-
represented race. The frequent pub
lication Of pictures of semi-naked Min
danao Moros and Igorotes has caused
a great many Americans to believe
they are typical Of the Inhabitants Of
the Philippines. Such is far from the
case, however. OF 100000 inhab-
itants Of the islands, 10500,000 are q
Christian, civilized people with cul-
ture and refinement that will compare
very favorably with that Of other ma
lions. The Filipino women are excep-
tionally modest. A street Irritation in
Manila, so far as a Filipino woman is
concerned, is something that is almost
unknown, as any American that has
visited Manila will testify.

an opponent of fair strength for that
date. 1t is not desired to meet too
strong a team as only a week inter-

to repeat last years victory over the
Army, but rumors reaching Annapolis
