On Aug. lti, l.M'.i. there started from
Spain with a Beat of five ahips Fer
nando Magellan, a Portuguese navi
gator. His object was to discover a
passage from Kuropc. west to the Pa
cific. Magellan hud vainly endear
OH d to Interest the King of Portugal In
hla project; had become a naturalized
Spaniard and had obtained from
Charles L, of Spain the w herewithal to
equip his fleet.
He reached the western coast of
South America In December nnd
turned south. As the season became
harsher and the weather colder the
ships' comraanderi nratlned, desiring
to winter on shore. One was executed,
another marooned. However, one ship
did desert and another was wrecked.
With three ships the great explorer con
tinued south, ami on Oct. L'S, io'M,
pawed through the Straits of M.u-,1
hiu to the waters of the Pacific, Be
now shaped his course west by north,
and In midsummer, 1021, reached Min
danao, of which be took possession III
the name of the King of Spain. Ho
next landed at Cehu, In August, l.'Jl,
nnd was welcomed by the king of the
Island. This monarch was baptized
nnd took the oath of allegiance to
Spain. Shortly after Magellan lie
on mo Involved lu a factional quarrel
between two native chieftains nnd was
killed. Many members of the expedi
tion had died, but the remainder, with
two ships, again sailed west and dis
covered Palawan. Later one of the
two was lost, but the other pltuklly
COntlnned Its way and made the first
complete Journey around the world.
In lOQOi under the direction of Philip
IL, the second Spanish expedition
reached the Islands. The object wna
the saving of native Rouls; Inquisition
methods were employed, and conver
lions, though not valuable, were tin
memus. lu 1071 Manila was seized
and proclaimed the capital of the
Islands, to be called henceforth the
Islas Filipinos, In honor of King Philip.
The Chinese Kmperor resented the
Intrusion Into celestial domains, lie
tween 1078 and 1070 he sent forth ten
expedition! to oust, the Spaniards.
Severe battle! followed, but the BUTO
pi ans managed to keep their foothold.
They never, however, forgave the Chi
nese these attempts. At various times
fits of resentment against Chinese
blood would sweep over the Spaniards
nud crusades were orgnnlzcd In order
to kill or drive them out. In HKI3 2.1,
(KKi were murdered, nnd In liCBl :.",IM0.
In 1703 England took Manila from
Spain, but peace was soon proclaimed,
and the islands were returned.

Native tobacco has always been In
digenous to Luzon, but the quality Is
strong nnd bitter. Karly 'lu the seven
teenth century missionaries Introduced
the Mexican plant with great success.
Tobacco plantations multiplied; tho
business Im'ciiiiic more and more pros
perous until In 17S1 it was made n state
monopoly. Laws were enacted that till
sales should lie to the government. A
planter might not smoke n cigar of Ids
owu make under penalty of $7 tine.
Tho government wna not always
prompt to pay for goods received; na
tives refused to cultivate their land
nnd tied to the mountains; soldiers fol
lowed nud killed whom they found; at
night the natives returned again and
tired the crops In the field. In this way
Mlndoro's once flourishing business has
been annihilated. Spain now tirok an
Other step; not only must nil tobacco
raised be sold to the state buyers (on
credit), but every family should own
and care for nt least 4,000 tobacco
plauts. The abuses resulting from
this last statute became so horrible
that even Spanish otllolnls protested
to the home government; tho t'astillau
statesmen, reallzluu the sponge was
squeezed dry, repealed the monopoly
laws In ls-vj. Kveti under such aus
pices the tobacco remnlned excellent.
Since the business has been open It has
Increased tremendously. Manila num
ber! scores of factories native, Chi
nese, and Spanish; several of thorn
have over fj00 ojieratlvea.
Coffee is grown to a considerable ex
tent; the quality la unusually good.
Little, however, finds Its way out of
the archipelago! The cocoa plant was
Introduced from Central A merlon early
In the seventeenth century. Philippine
chocolate Is always spoken of well by
returned travelers.
Various minerals nre found In pnylng
quantities. Kspeclnlly Is this true of
Luzon nnd Mlndauno. Cold and sul
phur will prove of value to prospec
tors; silver, mercury, copper nnd tin
have furnished returns, but the extent
of the deposits Is a matter of Investiga
tion.
tin mnny Islands the ax Iiiib never
la-en raised against the Immense virgin
forests; lu few have Its depredations

The Inhabitants of these Islnnds nre
a strangely mixed lot. Malay charac
teristics generally prevail throughout.
The many attempts to classify the peo
ples Into various district tribes and
races have failed, for the reason that
pure blood of any sort Is rare.
It Is safest to divide the native Fili
pinos Into Christianized Malays, pagan
Malays, and Mohammedan Malays.
The first named comprise five and a
half millions of the total (sqiulatlon of
eight millions. They resemble our ne
groes In many ways. They are music
lovers, fond of the sunshine, supersti
tious. Though usually g I natured.
they are subject to fits of murderous
passion. Nature lu the tropics la ao

The natives of the northern Islands
are called Tagalos. hey are tire small
est and least brave, but also most
treacherous and tricky of the Filipinos,
nnd always have been reckoned as the
poorest lighters; have always been
most completely under Spain's domina
tion, uud have suffered most accord
ingly. The central group of Islands Is term
oil tlie Vlsaya group. The Inhabitants
called Vlsayus are somewhat larger,
stronger, more Independent than the
Tagalos. The difference, however, Is
far less marked thau between our dif
ferent Indian tribes. Travelers, In or
der to strong I hell the force of their
distinctions and cotnpurlosns, nre apt
to push them a little far. The sharply
drawn distinction between the Taga
los and the Vlsayoss is not Justified.
The Moros or Mohammedan Malays
aggregate less than a million. They
Inhabit the BttlU group al the south of
the archipelago, pnrts of Mindanao,
nnd the southern third of Palawan.
One Sultan, wdiose residence Sulii. Is
acknowledged throughout these Isl
a lids. The Aloros are a tierce, fanati
cal, seafaring race, who were never
conquered by Spain. It Is unsafe for
a white man to venture among them.
To kill Christians Is pari of their re
ligious belief.
The aborigines of the Islands nre the
Negritos, n puny, miserable, dwarf
race. As the Malays swept up through
the BKhlpelagO the Negritos were
driven Into the most remote nnd uncov
ered parts. Though not of true m gro
stock, they are much blacker than the
Malays, and their Intellgenci Is far
lower. The total number Is estimated
nt 50,000.
