HIS LORDSHIP >IN, MANILA [SPECIAL CORARSPONDANT OF "' PUNCH.""}

Misiri October 13th- Lord Tunnet's visit to the Philippines, though brit in duration, has proved one of the most momentous incidents in his great Imperial pilgrimage. The situation on his arrival was somewhat delicate, but it is universally admitted that the atmosphere has largely cleared, thanks to his happy blending of frankners and bonhomie. The twelve active volcanoes in the Archipelago remained in a state of complete quiescence during his stay, and there was a notable cessation of the arthquakes which are so distressing a feature of these islands. The domestri catd water-buffalo, universally used as a draught animal and beast of burden. has hitherto given a good deal of trouble by its sluggishness and disinclination to work through the heat of the day, but since Lord Thanet's arrival has turned over a new leaf and displayed unwonted energy and industry,

The fact that the Philippines suffer from a scarcity of mammals and a total absence of marsupials was naturally a source of disappointment to Lord Thanet, after his experiences in Australia and Ismanin; but this deficiency is already ja'a fair way to bo remedied by the un- expected emergence of a number of new and recular mammalian fauna in the district of North Luzon. The increased activity of the flying frog is regarded as of hopeful angury, while the ravagen "of the parasitic jungle-tick are concurrently on the decline.

Though poor in mammals, the Philip pines are extraordinarily rich in birds. Lord Thanet has approached this subject from two sides as the scientific natur alist and as a practical student of the burning question of food supply. The list of edible birds which he has sampled during his stay includes 5fteen out of the thirty-five species of pigeons and doves, tailor birds, orioles, cocka-toos, larks shrikes, fruit thrashes, etc., to say nothing of a number of edible neste. He has also partaken freely of the eggs of the iguana, Jand and sea turtles, the bango or milk-fish, the pompano, the bonito, the giant, clam and the Philippine shrimp, and in every instance with com plete impunity. The triumphant way in which he has emerged from this daring gustatory ordeal speaks volumes for bi splendide fincas and has endeared him greatly to the natives,

No better proof of his humanizing in- Buence can be found than in the complete abandonment of the practice of head hunting among the wilder tribes of Noth "Luzon. Not only has the cliniste shown a-greater stability since Lord Thanet's arrival, but the ethical standard of the natives has been alevated to a higher- plane by contact with his magnetic personality.

Da

The perch which he delivered to a great assembly of Igorots, the most in tractable of the native tribes, welcoming them to the comity of nations and im pressing on them the advantages of the American administration, created a pro- found impression. It was a perilous ex cursion, as the roads leave much to be desired in the hilly-Luzon district. All the chauffers are natives and, in his own phrase, intolerably reckless." Arhe said to me on his return, Some of the sharp curves I shall never forget." When one recalls the pair pin turns negot

ated by his Lordship at different stages of his career the comment is indeed eloquent.

But perhaps the most epoch-making incident of his visit was the remarkable game of golf which he played with Aguinaldo, once the fations guerrilla leader of the Philipines in the late nine- tics. The links chosen for this Homeric contest are on the slopes of the volcano of Taul and are of an extremely sport ing character. The fairway is exception- aly narrow and the hazards consist of gigantic masses of trachytio tuffs inter- stratified with nummulitic limestone. On the day of the match there was no erup- tion and consequently no necessity to evade the streams of lava,which render. the approach to the thirteenth green 60 formidable. The match was, nilo square, on the eighteenth green, when Lord Thanet putted too strongly, his ball dis Appearing in an adjacent ghasm, and Aguinaldo's adhesion to: Anglo-American solidarity in the Far East was secured by a characteristic act of magninimity. Lord Thanet is load in his praise of Aguinaldo's niblick play, which he said. was, worthy of his heroic ancestry. As his opponent's maternal grandfather was a Celestial, the effect of this tribute on our relations with China cannot easily be over-estimated,-
