By SAMUEL FALLOWS.
(Birhop of Chicago and Noted Edit
rational Authority.)
There shortly comes from the Phil
ippines a man who has a valuable
and imely message for the Amerlcar
Luzon, living in wildly picturesque
and formerly inaccessible mountains.
These superb but primitive peoples
have engaged in inter-tribal warfare
throughout their history and this ter
rible condition was accentuated by the
repulsive practice of taking and pre
serving as house ornaments the heads
of their enemies. From this custom
they derived the name of headhunters.
Their fcurie were both tribal and per
sonal. and all the people were touched
by the malign hand of vengeance and
fear.
Rapacity had marked the attitude
of the Ghristlan Filipino in his deal
ings with these unhappy children of |
the mountains, and when Worcester!
and his men went among them they, j
too, wer** received as enemies. Their
first greetings were challenges to bat
tles, and it was only through superb
< ourage that they won a hearing in
tin- firnt place, while endless patience
and infinite tact were necessary to
the ec‘a hllshmenf of the confidence
and friendship which has resulted in
the acceptance by the wild people of
people. He is Dean C. Worcester, civilized law.
- «i ... .. m i Worcester not only won and re
recently ireeretary of the Interior , , he fr |,. nrishlp of the wild peo. I
the American who has had the long ! pi,., but brought peace to them and
est and most intimate, contact with turned the r thought* and hands to j
Philippine affairs.
Many years before our war with
Spain, when to the popular American
mind Manila and the Philippines
were indefinite and hazy points on
the map, Mr Worcester made two
extended tours of the archipelago.
As a member *>f scientific expedi
tions. gathering data and specimens,
h‘e twice traveled the length of the
group given Into our keeping, and
when President McKinley needed the
counsel and assistance of men of
knowledge, Dean Worcester was one
of the first to whom he turned.
President McKinley appointed him
a member of the Hehtirmann Com
mission, and when William Howard
Taft was chosen to found civil gov
ernment in the Philippines he con
tinued him as member of the com
mission, which remains to this day
fiH the senior governing body In the
islands.
Mr. Worcester was made Secretary
of tiie Interior in the Government in
stituted by McKinley and approved
by Congress, and continuously re
tained tile post until a week ago
Monday, when he resigned to make
way for « man chosen by the Wil
son Administration.
In this capacity he organized and
directed the Bureaus of Health,
Land, Forestry and Science, besides
becoming the guardian of the million
nori-Chrlstlan tribesmen numbered
among our wards in the Orient. Taft,
Wright, Ide, Smith. Moses and other
veteran administrators of the Phil
ippine Government finished their la
bors and p&asad to other fields, but
Worcester remained fourteen years.
Notable Service to Natiorp
Dean Worcester’s service to the
nation his been a notable one In
rn.my respects, but his guardianship
of the wild men. an extraordinary tale
of service and adventure, must make
the largest appeal to U9 at home. The
Spanish Government md the Chrin-
tian peoples of tin* PhilipptrfeM appear
to have given themselves little con
cern as to their wild neighbors. A
few hardy and devoted missionaries
ventured among them, but contact
seems to have been largely accidental
and occasional

aroused the fear of the people and
were deserted are now unable to
meet their daily demands. Manila

and busiest institution in the capital
and the Manila Free Clinic has grown
to he the third largest In the world.
Dean Will Tell of Filipinos.
Freed from long official service and
th«* restraints which it consciously
and unconsciously imposes, Dean
Worcester is coming home to talk to
the country about the Philippines. He
says that he intends to travel fr»
the more useful things of life. War
ring tribes were brought together In
friendly relationship and the rivalry
of athletics took the place of foray ft
Schools were started, industry and
husbandry encouraged and the once
Inaccessible mountains were bisected
and crosscut with roads and trails,

taken’, but the custom may be said to
have almost disappeared.
Under the old order the men wera
so busy fighting that farming was
neglected and frequently large num
bers of people were in want. The
termination of warfare, Individual and
collective, has sent thousands of men
hack to the fields and the food supply
Is now always ample to meet all the
needs of thy people and leave a con
siderable annual surplus
Gained Their Friendship.
The wild tribe relationship in the
Philippines offered at the beginning a
veritable hornets’ nest of trouble for
the United States Government, tha
possibilities of which are strikingly
illustrated by the experience of the
Japanese In Formosa and the Dutch
in Java, where costly and endless war
Lias been waged against the hillmcn.
Had the die been cast for war rather
than peace with the hillmen of the
Philippines, it would have been a
formidable and endless task to con
quer and control them. The tribe®are
numerous and their men are big, up
standing fellows, born of forebears
*vho never knew peace. Fear is not a
quality of their warriors, and they
would have been a troublesome en
emy.
In gaining their friendship Worces
ter and h»s men rendered large serv
ice to their country and the cause of
civilization and set In motion a work
•hat is unique in tiie whole relation
ship between civilization and sav
agery. These peoples have great pos
sibilities of development and there
falls to the successors of Dean
Worcester In the Philippines an Im
portant duty to carry forward the
task upon which he made such a
splendid beginning.
The most important relationship
that Dean Worcester has had toward
the rest of the Filipino people has
been on the side of sanitation and
science.
It was necessary to wage the bat
tle from many sides. The first requi
site was an up-to-date scientific in
stitution that would furnish tiie best
fighting material, ami there was cre
ated. upder Worcester’s direction, a
great laboratory that has won more
acclaim in Europe thun it has in the
United States.
Another necessity was a modern
school of medicine and surgery that
would train Filipinos to minister to
the needs of their own jHjople, and
such an institution was founded. Hos
pitals were another dire necessity,
and these were created. Clinics were
another need, and these were pro
vided. Nurses were needed every-

War Department Asked for Jew
elry Taken by Noted General
on Invasion of South.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 13.—Two
persons giving the names of Lori!
and Lady Banff called at the Treas- '
ury Department yesterday and |
claimed a quantity of jewelry and I
silver plate said to have been stored
there for safe-keeping During ‘he j
Civil War. They were referred lo I
the Wtr Department, where records
are being searched in hope of finding
the valuables.
Lady Banff, who acted as sopkes- |
man, told a dramatic story of how the
jewels were sent to the Treasury by
General W T. Sherman from a con
vent in Columbia, S. C. A record, she
said, waa seal to the Mar Depart
ment.
During the war, according to the
story, the people of Columbia became
alarmed lest the Federal® would rob
them of their jewelry and s lver. They
gathered their goods together, made
up a list and hid the valuables under
the floor of the Ursulian Convent
there.
Nuns Revealed Hiding Place.
When General Sherman arrived in
Columbia, he set fire t- the convent,
and the nuns, fearing that the valu
ables would be forever destroyed, re
vealed their hiding place.
General Sherman took charge of the
property, it is said, ai\d sent it to the
Treasury, making afull report to the
War Department.
Yesterday’s visitors saw Byrom
Newton, private secretary to Secre
tary MoAdoo, and told him the story.
Mr. Newton, on investigation, found
that during the war a great deal of
jewelry and silver plate had been
turned over to the Treasury for safe
keeping. This was kept there, he said,
until about ten years ago, when It
was sent to the War Department. The
visitors were sent to that department.
On arrival there they met John C.
Scofield, assistant and chief clerk, j
who referred them to Colonel H. O. {
S. Heistand. Acting Adjutant General. |
They told Colonel Heistand the same
story, asking him to let them look at 1 |jj
the report made by General Sherman. <
Lady Banff explained that her I
mother had placed some of the fam
ily jewels in the lot, and that she now
wanted to recover them.
Unable to Find Report.
Colonel Heistand made an exam
ination, but failed to find any report J f
made by General Sherman. He called [ •
n some of the oldest clerks of the',
department, but they, too, were un
able to remember anything of the
kind. Lavly Banff insisted that it
was there, declaring that when she
was a girl she had visited ihe War
Department and had seen it.
Colonel Heistand said that he
would make a further Investigation,
and that he would notify the visitors,
who are living in Washington, in
Sixth street northwest.
This coupia has been living in
Washington for some time and has
on several occasions been prominent
in the news. The man claims the
Mile of the Rt. Hon. Robert Walter
Finlater Ogllvie, Lord Banff and heir
to the earldom of Finlater, Scotland.
He is a graduate of three universities
— Princeton. Columbia, and West
Virginia. Lady Banff was a Southern
beauty, it is understood.
