Manila. March 27. It was Palm
Sunday, March 20, at Manila. In th
States the chnrcues were decorated with
palm brunches, emblems of neaca nnrl
good will. In Manila we thonffht of
home and of the white robed children
Pkippirg merrily through the streets,
followed at a more sedate gait by grown
people on their way from chnrch, and
all, children and grown people alike,
carrying or wearing sprigs and bits of
the sacred branch that commemorates
the entry into Jerusalem.
There was not much of this in Ma
nila, however. Very few Spaniards are
left in the old town, and American boI-
aiers care little for Palm Sunday. The
qniet Filipino natives indued bob nbont

np looking Malays with greasy black
beads. The men are clad in spotless
white shirt and trousers, the shirt being
in every case ontside the trousers. The
women wear bright red skirts and loose,
light colored waists.
We have been fond of writing home
to our friends that so far as actual
fighting and danger go tln-ro is no more
sign of war in Manila than iu Oshkosh.
Soldiers ubonnd, bnt otherwise Al.niila
is as safe and sleepy as a mossback
country village. There is and has been
ever since the 4th of February constant
skirmishing, occasionally fighting moro
serious, out along the lines. But that is
seven niilos away.
On Palm Sutiday morning we had,
however, a grimmer reminder than
nsnal that war was not far away. The
day before a decided advance had been
made by the Americans against the
Filipinos at Malabon. Hidden behind in
their bamboo jungle and protected by
their intrenchments, the "Malay nig
gers" bad killed some 80 of our men
and wonnded 200. Wo saw some of
them at the hospital where nurse and
dot'tur were dressing their wounds. Two
of theiu belonged to the Fourth United
States cavalrv. One of them had been
struck in the cheek by a fragment of
bulli-t. only half an inch below his eye,
yet the eye had been spared clear and
untouched.
"You'll be nil right in a day or two,
said the surgeon. "Yon won't need to
come to me again."
"Seven of my company were wonnd
ed in 20 minutes," said the young fel
low. "Our first sergeant is dead by this
time. I'm going hack to the front to
morrow." The other Fourth cavalryman was an
Irishman, with a merry twinkle in bis
blue eye. It was an odd sort of wound
he had. A Manser bullet had plowed
straight through the soft flesh under his
chin, going in one Bide and out the oth
er, making a smooth tunnel.
"And it could have killed threo men
after it went through me, if they had
been in the line of it," he told ns. He
described the part of the battle that he
saw.
"We dismounted and left our horses
behind us when we went against the
Filipinos in the bamboo thicket. It's so
close a dog couldn't crawl through where
we had to advance. The rebels hide In
thisbrnsh, and yon never can tell where
they are or when they are going to fire
on you. We didn't know there wns one
in a mile of us, when, ping I we got it
in onr faces. I had this hole bored
throngh my chin quicker than yon could
think, and that wasn't enough, but s
little brute of a Filipino horse kicked
me in the face and gave me a black eye.
I'll be even with 'em yet."
The surgeon examined his wonnd. It
was doing well. The chief danger in his
case appeared to be lest he should dis
figure himself by dropping his food
upon the spotless bandaging that coher
ed his chin. The doctor cautioned him
duly on this point and dismissed him.
"I'll be back at 'em the last of this
week," were the parting words of the
Irishman.
But there were others who would
never be "back at them. " Some of the
bravest men and officers had died of
their wounds on the way to hospital.

MILES K PERKINS.
Eugene, Oregon
Hongkong bank the mm of
000 which the Spanish government
paid Againaldo to cease fighting before
the Americans came to the Philippines.
Agninaldo took the money, made his
promise und continued the insurrection
precisely as before. He had no more
regard for his word than a guerrilla or
a professional politician has. This is
the gentleman and patriot whom onr
American officers mistakenly took to
their arms when they came to Manila.
It is certain that if in the beginning
we had treated the Filipinos like the
irresponsible chi'dren they are this in
surrection would not have started. As
it is, the only thing now is to give the
"niggers," as they are called here, a
thoroughly good beating till they are
well cowed, then treat them kindly,
but strictly as inferiors, afterward till
they gradually learn civilization. The
sooner and the more thoroughly the
punishment is administered the better.
The Filipinos may be burned out and
driven away from a spot, but for a
time they will gather like flies again so
soon as our army has passed on, and
they will fire from ambush on the first
peaceful white traveler who passes that
way. Our army has driven the rebels
every step of the way since it started
in here that, too, without difficulty
but for the peace of the country it will
be necessary to leave detachments of sol
diers at frequent intervals.
"I don t like to fight these niggers."
said an American soldier who has been
at the front ever Bince the fight with
the Filipinos has been on. "They have
not sense enough to stand np to a
square scrap and quit when they are
licked. They hide in the thicket in
front of you, and they eneak ut on you
from behind after you have whipped
them once, and there's no satisfaction
any way."
The Filipinos know how to make
powder and cartridges. Among them
are men formerly iu the employ of the
Spaniards at the arsenal. They have a
traveling powder and cartridge factory.
gathering np the rude implements they
nse and taking the same with them aa
they fly from pillar to post Besides
that, some Chinese in these islands who
take that way to pay off part of the
grudge they owe Americans follow
along in the track of the fighting and
gather up the empty American car
tridges and sell them to the insurgents
for a consideration worth while to
gentleman with a cue. Nothing cornea
amiss to a Chinaman. These cartridges
the rebels fill and use again.
The newspaper liar has got in some
of his finest work in depicting the
horrors of the sickliness of Manila.
Frightful tales were told at home of
the smallpox, the fever, the malaria,
the snakes and the scorpions of these
blessed islands. The actual truth is that
with average sanitary conditions Ma
nila would be aB healthful as Honolulu
or northern Mexico or Florida itself.
The health of our Boldiers who have
been out on the line fighting since the
6th of last February is this day excel
lent I have from numerous soldiers
themselves the testimony that they
never felt better. Their greatest need
is that of thin cotton clothing, without
which no boy in blue should be sent
here. The blue should be retained, but
it should be cotton instead of wool. In
one day recently our troops marched 15
miles over rebel Intrenchments and
throngh thickets, and very few of them
were knocked out till the end of the
journey.
The testimony of Americans who
have been here in business several
months is universally in favor of the
country. The longer they remain the
better they like it White babies born
here certainly thrive admirably the
first four or five years of their lives. I
have this on the authority of Mr. P. K.
A. Meerkamp Van Embden, Dutch
consul in Manila many years. Three of
his children were born here. I have
been told that the Spaniards who first
settled here set afloat and persistently
kept up the story of the unhealthful
nesB of the Philippines in order to keep
other white races out Maybe it's true.
One of the oddest results of the Fili
pino insurrection has been the estab
lishment of a real friendship between
the Americans and the Spanish here.
Before the outbreak the Spaniards hated
FILIPINO BELLES.
the Americans. A senora passing onr
Boldiers would draw aside her skirts in
that peculiar way that seems to delight
the feminine soul when it would fain
express scorn. After the outbreak all
was changed. "The Spanish couldn't
do enough for us then," an American
soldier told me. American and Span
iard were drawn together by having a
mutual enemy, a bond stronger than
that cemented by the possession of a
mutual friend.
A dark eyed, intelligent Spanish
woman at the head of a photograph
gallery here Informed me emphatically
that she liked Americana,
"The senora Americana is the equal
of the Spanish senora," said Bhe, point
ing first to me and then slapping her own
chest, "but the Filipinos naw-w I"
