Norr Government Line IliinaThronnh n Fertile Country. Tho loiiRCftt railway In tlm Philip pines will ho the Kovornnient lino lend ing through the wonderfully fertile In terior of Luzon from Manila to Apnr rl, tho nortlicrinoHt ort of thu Island. It will he, iih It were, tho Bront trans continental pytom In tho IslandR. Tliu survey enlls for n lino 830 mile In length. With tho exception of ono dllllciilt ixrntle, thu ronil will he com paratively level, nud trains should make the trip In ten hour. Recent ly the writer traveled over tho line of this purvey on horeolmck. In all tho trip there wah only toon ono hlllsldo of ahout three ncron which was unrrcn land, and here It was being worked for n Unto quarry. l'rom .Manila tho road will run northeast 125 miles through tho val ley of tho Pnmpangn to tho Caraballo Mountains, which run north and south from ten to thirty miles from tho west LUZON IU1I.WAY IIOUTC const of Luzon. It will cross these mountains over tho Bouth Caraballo pahs, elevation !t,7f0 feet. Tho sum mits aro covered with Immense hard wood trees. Tho railroad will cllmh for thirty flvo or forty mile tlirough these moun tains, 'j'ho country remind ono of tho Cumberland mountains jf Tennessee. There ore occasional llttlo HcttleiueutH In tho val leys where tho Indians Igorrotes from Ilcuguet Province grow coffeo. Every llttlo farm Is protected with k bam boo fence to keep out tho deer and wild boar. There nro no nntlvo Tag alogs dwelling In tho mountains. These Indians aro stronger and nioro Indus trious than tho Filipino of tho plains. About twenty-five miles above Ham- bang In Neurn Vlzcnyn Provlnco tho survey strikes n tributary of the Mogat Itlver at an altltudo of n llttlo moro than 2,500 feet, from this ioliit until near Aparrl there Is an almost Im perceptible decllno In tho grado. Hambang Is the prettiest llttlo town In the Philippine Islands. The peoplo re "paclflcos" and took no part In the Insurrection. Ouly one company of American troops has ever been In Ham bang. Fifty yean ago tho Spanish built great cathedrals and bridges and improved the roads. The country Is rolling nnd the valley Is open. The long, low, slanting foothills are dense ly covered with timber. The country is capable of supporting an Immense population. From Hambang the railroad will run almost directly east down the Mngat Valley to the Cagayan Valley, fifty nine miles by tho rail, then down the Cugayan Valley almost duo north to Aparrl. In nil this traveling one Is Impress ed by the fact that the Philippine Islands still possess vast stretches of Immensely fertile but unsettled coun try. CARELESSNESS IN AMERICA. Larger Percntse of Accl4euta (ban In Other Land a. Our national carelessness Is the ex planation given by the Literary Digest for our dreadful record of accident, aas Ajstrlcaa Medicine. la rtrltwlu h l y f l u z Jyst j Tr A It V.'YvMM. ""4i;; j .. an nrtlcle by O. E. Walsh upon accident-preventing devices In America (Casslcr's magazine) It Is shown that we stand Hint In thu world In tho acci dent record and that tho rule necms to apply to all trades and professions. Tho proportion of miners killed, for instance, Is nearly treble that In Franco, and about double that In other Euro pean countries. For every live men killed by accident In tho United States there are only three In nil nations of Europe, combined. Our railroads alr.nu kill twenty-onu pcnplu every day. Tho remarkable fact Is brought out that we lend the world In ttie Invention of nccl-dent-proventlng devices, nnd adopt fowcr of them than any other country. Indeed, many of tho Inventions travel to Europe for recognition nud adoption. It Is claimed that our workmen will not iiko tho safety devices, ns somethlni; childish, bnt prefer to run tho risk Ilka men. This Is true, hut It Is nlsn trua of European workmen. Indeed, tho old story of tho safety lamp In mines shows that accustomed dangers nro forgotten or minimized. Permanent "museums of security," such as that In Amsterdam, Walsh says, should bo established. In these there aro on constant exhibition every concclvnhlo dovlro for lessening risk to life from accident. They will educate tho public, and tho workmen will grad ually bo brought to (ho point of Aft maudlng protection. It Is suggested that employers bo held to n stricter accountability and be compelled by law to safeguard employes, as In Europe, but It can bo replied that American workmen will not submit to restrictions easily Imposed In Europe. They are free agents, with a right to kill them selves, If they please, or Injuro others. No man Is Ids brother's keeper here, nud tills Is probably tho real basis for our national disregard of tho rights of others. It Is moro than carelessness. The surgeons of tho country heo nil these accidents, and carefully Investi gate each case. It seems reasonable to suggest that they should ho ablo to seo the causes and suggest remedies. Knowing moro of tho matter than any other body of men, can they not take somo concerted action which would make life snfer In America? American disregard for human life li tho fact which seems to Impress Euro pean visitors moro profoundly than any other characteristic. Sluco wo claim to be tho most democratic peoplo on earth, It seems renmrkablo that with more power In our hands than any oth er nation, wo nro unable to safeguard ourselves to anything llko tho extent accomplished by monarchic nations of tho enlightened parts of Europe. Her Idea of (ientlo folk. Tho following anecdote recently brought to itlchiuond by u Georgia woman Is a truo story : A Hoston couplo wero recreating near Augusta and met an old negro woman to whom they took a fancy. They In vited her to pay them a visit and the black woman accepted, especially as her expeuses wero paid. In duo tlmo she arrived lu Hoston nud was Installed In tho houso of tho wlilto folks. Shu oc cupied ono of tho host rooms and ate nt the same tablo with her host and hostess. At ono of tho meals the host ess said: "Mrs. Jones, you wero a slave, weren't you?" "Yes, marrn," replied Mrs. Jones. "I b'longed to Mar's Itobert Howell." "I suppose ho never Invited you to eat at his table," lemarked the Hoston woman. "No, honey, dnt ho ain't," replied Mrs. Jones. "My master was a gentleman. Ho ain't never let no nigger set at d tablo long er him." And In making this speech she meant no disrespect to her hostess. Hho meant merely to point out a natural distinc tion." Haltlmoro Sun. stopped Walking, "I suppose your husband hasn't dons much walking slnco ho bought his new auto?" "No, Indeed. He broke his leg tho first time he went out In It" CI era land Leader.
