LARGS number of people have
rushed into Manila from the
United States during the past
year.
While a certain proportion of
these comprise the families and rela
tives of army and volunteer officers, a
goodly average represents those who in
tend to engage in business or invest cap
ital as soon as the conditions shall war
rant. As a summer resort however, these
have discovered that there are many
places preferable to the capital of Lu-

ton, and the ubiquitous tourist who
comes out of mere - curiosity finds the
sentiment fully satiated before the neat
boat sails for Hong Kong. Typhoon and
quarantine rigors have had the effect to
terrify many. This latter means a three
days' isolation, during which the passen
gers lie under the broiling sun, and no
friendly boat comes nearer than ten
yards.
The crew, the coolies and the passen
gers despairingly watch the cool cafes

An innovation has been begun by the

ashore, where lemonades and ices are
sold, and hail the passing tugs with re
markable interest. On one tug that came
out to an anchored steamer a young man
eagerly shouted. “Grace! O, Grace!’’ The
entire male passenger list arose as one
man, and said, “Yes—what is it, dear?”
The young man blushed, and a young
woman, who had watched the shore all
the morning, hurried to the rail. The
young man wanted to know if he could
bring anything to add to his fiancee’s
happiness.
“Bring the late papers," shouted a trav
eling man.
“Deck of cards!” said a civilian clerk.
“Something to eat.”
“Bananas,” and thereafter every even
ing all eyes on board would wait for the
coming of the young man, and greeted his
gifts as they would those of a friend and
brother. Finally, if no case of the plague
has been reported, the passengers are al
lowed to go ashore.
The troubles of a new arrival at Ma
nila begin the moment he goes ashore.
The rates of board at the hotels are from
to $10 a day in Mexican money, and
the board is not good. The meals are
cooked by a combined force of Filipinos
and Chinamen. These two races are vio
lently antagonistic, and quarrel whenever
they pass.
The beds, the bottoms of
which are cane woven, are as hard as the
floor and as unyielding as railroad iron.
No blanket is furnished, and sometimes
there is a cold wind.
Housekeeping in Manila, under present
conditions, is a delusion and a snare.
House rent runs all the way from $100
to $300 a month. Groceries are expen
sive. Canned goods cost from 75 cents
to $1, and the beef is suspicious and ex
pensive. Household furniture and kitch
en utensils are hard to procure at any
price. Good stoves are scarce, and gaso
line and oil are unknown. Only by pro
curing supplies through the army commis
sary officers can a reduced cost of living
be attained.
Everybody of importance in Manila is
bound to keep one or two rigs. A carro-
mata can be rented for $50, gold, a
month.
Nobody with social ambitions
rides on the street railroad. Its cars are
drawn by small, decrepit ponies that are
beaten and hammered by the conductors
at every step. A carromato costs $300
outright and a cochero has to engineer it.
These fellows drink liquor, run races,
and “fet'd the horses" at a cost that beg
gars the owners.
The greatest discomfort of housekeep
ing in Manila is involved in the question
of the management of servants. These
are plentiful and cheap, but the mixture
C H A SIN G A lt DOO.
of Filipino and Chinaman makes the
scene of one chasing the other around
the house with a knife a common scene.
The main servant—the cook—who some
times earns as high as $40 a month, d o e-
the marketing, and horse steak or the
remains of some old caribou are often
served up at table. The only salvation
of the American resident is in the im
ported canned meats, or those brought
out by the refrigerator ships for the ar
my. Condensed milk is another essential.

the belief that the brain growth In school
children is much more strongly influ
enced by their physical condition than
has hitherto been realized. In one
school scientific examiners are now at
work, and great results are promised.
These persons, all through the day,
have an Intermittent procession of pu
pils. from 8 to 18 years of age, coming
Into the room where they preside. No
one of the children remains In the
room long, but while there each Is
measurtd and weighed and tested In
half a dozen ways, thus unconsciously
playing a highly Important part In the
science of education. The experiments
have to do especially with height,
weight, power of endurance, lung ca
pacity, grip, sight and hearing of the
pupil.
For instance: Each boy or girl Is
requested to step upon a small plat
form, at the back of which is a stand
ard gauge for taking the height by the
celebrated method of Bertillon. Weigh
ing comes next, then the test for lung
capacity, while a spirometer Is used.
This resembles a miniature gasometer,
consisting of a sheet metal cylinder
and a flexible tube. The ergograph
covers endurance tests. The arm is
strapped down ro that the middle
finger only can be moved. This is in
serted in a loop connected with a
weight 7 per cen t of the aubject’s
weight, and the child bends the finger,
thus raising the weight forty-five times
in a minute and a half. A revolving
scroll and a stylus arrangement record
the movements.
For the grip, the mannometer Is em
ployed. It Is a little metal apparatus,
with a spring that the grasp of the

hand compresses. An Index measures
the muscular force In kilograms. The
apparatus used for testing the sight
and bearing Is the most delicate em
ployed anywhere.
The cdllty of all this Is that the tests
are made the basis of grading the sub
jects. Low records that have hitherto
been attributed to viciousness or ob
stinacy may thus be traced to faulty
physical conditions. It may be found
from weakness demonstrated that a
child is not physically able to keep up
with the class, and labor Is lightened
to suit the situation. In one school 60
per cent, of all present were below nor
mal In bearing. It has been found that
girls do not have the endurance of boys,
and the sexes should not, therefore,
have eq ual work.
Generally, the tallest and heaviest
pupils are found to be farthest along
w ith their studies. Another fact dis
covered is that the physical force of
the child Is fair at 9 o’clock In the
morning, strong at 10, at 11 decreasing,
low at noon. At 1 there Is a slight re
vival. at 2 It is fairly good, at 3 there
Is a second decline. It Is held, how
ever, that standards fixed and deduc
tions made from American children do
not fit all other nationalities. Italian,
Swedish. Hungarian. Finnish and other
children differ materially in mind and
body from these, and the records al
ready secured In this direction are to
made the basis of Investigation that
