Bishop Fallows Declares That Dean Worcester, Student of Islands, Re turning From Archipelago, W ill ShowFallacyofNativeGovernment. In view of the departure of Bur ton Harrison, the new Wilson Gov ernor General of the Philippines, who •ailed Wednesday from San Fran cisco for Manila, and the declared Intention of the Democratic Congress to give to the Filipinos absolute In dependence eight years hence, the following article, by Biahop FaJlows, is illuminating. Bishop Fallows traveled 10,000 mips among the islands to satisfy himself of conditions there and he concludes that independence for the Filipinos now or within a few years would be a cularnity. His article fol lows: 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 The largest groups of non-clvllized peoples inhabit the province of North DANDRUFF FELL EM D !RE FURNITURE CO.

Hospitals and clinics which once aroused the fear of the people and were deserted are now unable to meet their daily demands. Manila General Hospital is now the largest 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, largely constructed by the wild m.-nlw i -11 VA/ill Q p p.if nn R p _ themselves Occa^onally a head Is < VdUCieVI118 Will D0 TUI OH De- 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- «KM Greenville Avo., Staunton.

Joel Hunter Sent To Boston Meeting Goes to Convention of Accountants as Delegate From the Geor- gla Society. 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.
