Orient, as published by The Manila
American of May IS. ,
The Red Men was the first secret
order to Invade the Philippine Islands,
Apache tribe, No. 1, being organized
In May, 1801.
Since then Comanche tribe. No. 2;
Aztec, No. 8, and Bed Cloud, No. 4,
have been organized. Considerable
trouble was experienced at first In
keeping up the organization, owing to
the fact that the regiments, to which
most of the members belonged, were
continually being changed about. This
matter waa finally overcome and now
there are several flourishing tribes In
tha Islands.
Dr. Albert Fensch, the writer of the
letter, was formerly a prominent cltl-
