Most of our first crop of rrWens hsd undergone a liberal tracing In foreign af fairs. Washington, to be sure, never went farther from home than tha Weat Indies. ils successor. John Adams, however, passed most of tha time between the adop tion of the Declaration and tha framing of the constitution In tha foreign service of Ma country, first at Psrls. then at The Hague, where he negot'ated a large loan from the Dutch., and again at Parle. It waa Adams' delicate task o present h'.nself to Oeorge III aa the first minister at the court of Et. James from independent Amtrira. TVs king pla'nly confessed that the scetia was the most painful one In which he had aver been called utkh to take a part. When the wrong-headed old mon arch, still grasping after his lost empire, intimated that there should be some sort of alllauce between the two nations, Adams Ho printed and circulated our mora lib eral and progressiva measures of law. He traveled extensively. He corresponded with tha colleges . at home and kept them In formed of the Inventions, discoveries and the new books of Europe. He sent back useful seeds, roots and nuts for American cultivation, and from the rice sent by him the rice Industry of South Carolina waa Started. Ha went among tha peasantry. "You must ftrret the people out of their hovels ss I have done," this Inveterate and In qulaltlva democrat wrote to Lafayette, "and look in Is their kettles, eat their bread, loll on their beds, on pretense of resting yourself, but in fact to find If they are soft."

Only two men alnce Adsma have brought to tha presidency any experience In tha foreign aervtce. Three were Van Buren, who waa minister to England, and from which post ha waa forced to retire by the refusal nf tha senate tA confirm Mm mnA I Sffalr. Buchanan, who was minister first to Russia and then to Great Britain.

Teacher-Correct. Go up head. Waldo. Chicago Tribune. "e k w. A A rv. In Manila. It la said that only hnlf the I and "Hiawatha" had a long and Intense popularity. Following the band Is a four-horse hearse with black figures at the corners, each labeled with a large placard to prevent mistakes In Identity. The hearse Is st ter.ded by functionaries In hemp wigs, fur trimmed coats, knickerbockers and shovel hats. ' If the family Is not rich enough to afford a hearse tha heavy biers are car ried by relays of pallbearers. As for the Manila cemeteries, they sre not what they were before tha American occuputlon. It waa Governor Taft himself who described ths wall vaults ss tha placea where the dead are "plgaonhole.1 for future reference." These wall vaults sre like some of those In New Orleans cemeterlea and were rendered necessary by the same cause, the swampiness of the ground In the old city. Tha principal cemetery used to be that of Paco. It was round and was ornamented with a terrace and balustrade above the vaults. The wall containing tha "pigeon holes" was about eight feet thick. Tha place waa quartered by two alleys crossing In the center and there was also a ehauel where ths sovemnra eenaral and little Flllplnoa aucesed In weathering a slr.yle year of existence there. Their pa thetic little funerals are one of the com mon street sights of the walled city. A writer In the Manila Tlmea tells of one which seemed to be a strictly fam'ly The mother carried on her head the little pasteboard coflln covered with bits of red, white and blue cotton batting. She waa smoking a cigar, and behind her trusted four er flva children, auppoeedly surviving brothers snd sisters of the lit tle life whtch had failed to make good. They were chattering unconcernedly, and aave that the mother's head was topped by a coffin Instead of a basket the affair mlcht have keen a trip to market. The Filipinos sre said to love their children, but with a death rata ef from fifteen to thirty babies a day pt-rhapa custom does somewhat stale their grief. This little procesaslon was rather out of the ordinary, for as a general thing the coffin of pasteboard Is placed on a board tied to two croaa stlcka and Is carried by two, or perhaps four, small boys. A rich man's funeral la a very different eoit of function. high prelates were burled. Children burltd. If ens may use so Inaccurate, a term for the process, by themselves In whst was called the "angelarlum." This cemetery was built In 1410 snd until the typhoon of September 2, Ifr. wss ss sttrsctlvs as such a place could be. The face of the wallls was ornamented wttli a great many columns snd the inner alleys snd circle were beautified with fins old trees. Msny of these were destroyed by the typhoon. There were "pigeonholes" for I.7S2 bodies, aa that evidently rotation In oftice must be followed If tha cemetery waa to serve a perennial use. The rotation was secured by a system of renting the niches instead of selling them outright. Tha feea varied from 1$ shillings for a child to Z4 for an adult, ths rent to be paid in advance every five ycara. These rentals provided the funds which supported tha chaplain, who dwelt acroea the way. and also paid other expenses of the plsce. If at ths end ef any Ova-year period an other 4 was not forthcoming, ths old tensnt wss promptly evicted to make room for s mora profitable occupant. Before the Americana cams these dispos sessed parcels of bones were taken to tha back of tha outer wall and thrown Into a sort of fossa between two walla. This fosse was celled ths depostto, but was promptly designated "the bona pile" by our enldlera. Every visitor In Manila Secures a picture of "ths bone pile" as it was when the rere 1 Americans , event It wss took charge. Boon after tra ordered that the bone covered with earth and that bad paying tananta be provided with soma less shock ins final resting place. Before ths change was made there wera many Amei leans who used rather to tnjoy taking new arrivals to tha cemetery and giving them a shock by suddenly placing them where a good closa view of the bona pile waa unavoidable. AnAmerlcan woman who had done this a number of times went out one time to repeat the experience with a lately arrived friend. I pon climbing tha wall which overlooks the deposits, however, sha caught stunt of the recently evicted remains of a woman whose long hair was blown sbout by tha wind. It was her last visit Tha sight cured her f further curiosity or mischief In that direction. Out st La Loma are resl burying grounds, the dead being Interred in tha filgher ground of that locality. It la a favorite burying place with tha Chinese, who like a sloping hillside and who cover their graves with well laid thicknesses of lement. Very aplcioaa. "Better send an InsDector down tn u. whal e tha n-atter with this man's mater." said the csshler In the gas company of fice to the suT'erlntendent.
