Filipinos as They Are, The Insurgents are not brave find will not stand exposed under Arc. The Spanlsh-Flllplno Idea of war Is to first build breastworks, then hug them, hold a gun overhead, resting on the parapet nnd fire In the atmosphere. They take no aim, nnd arc slow and awkward In handling their weapons. Filipinos have no discipline. They come and go almost at will. Their wives and children accompany them to the front. They wear a uniform slmilar to the Spaniards, a blouse aud trousers of light blue cotton cloth. They carry a small bag of rice and about fifteen rounds of ammunition. All natives are barefooted, children wear a shirt, women a loose waist ami a yard of cotton around the hips. Men Usually wear a shirt aud trunks. Girls marry at twelve years. The families at e large; women of twenty can fre- 1 quently be seen with seven or eight children. Tito women age early, and few except half castes can be consid ered pretty. They do not average over eighty-live pounds In weight, and take great pride in their long black hair, which they wear combed back and coiled on the back of the head. They are erect, nnd some have ting shoul ders. Betel nut chewing is universal, The juice is blood red, discolors .the mouth and teeth, and gives them a dis gustlng appearance.
