.MANILA. P. L. July 2- Practice ot*
Polygamy in the Philippine Islands is
Uong reduced through education ot
girls of the leading families of the
outlying provinces, according to I’ rank
\V. Carpenter, retiring governor ot th»
department of Mindanao and Sulu.
Mr. Carpenter is here to turn ovei
administration of his office to the Sec
retary of the Interior who will act
tiirough the Bureau of Non Christian
Tribes in accordance with a new ter
ritorial law. This law leaves in effect
a treaty under which the Sultan of :
Sulu renounced all pretensions to tern

(MiniI sovereignty but gained recogni
tion as ecclesiastical head of the Mo
hammedan church in the Sulu aivhi
(icligo. The treaty guarantees to the
Sultan and his people “the same re
ligious freedom had by all adherents
of all other religious creeds, the prac
tice of which is not in violation of the
basic principles of the laws of the
I nited States.”
“It is important to note.” said Car
penter in one of his messages written
as governor, “that this includes a lim
itation as to religious practice which
necessarily includes the abandonment
of polygamy. There can be no ques
tion that it will disappear as the re
lative number of persons of the two
sexes reach an approximate natural
equality.
“An effort to impose upon the peo
ple of the Sultan at this time the in
validation of polygamous marriages
heretofore contracted, the prohibition
at this time of polygamy or the dis
continuance of divorce, must unavoid
ably result in the active resistance of
a people imbued with fanatic determ
ination to die rather than submit to a
privation of their religious liberty in
matters they believe to he fundament
al and sanctioned by divine authority.**
Mr. Carpenter said that girls of
prominent families in Mindanao and
Sulu are being sent to Manila public
seh«»ols where they a.^sociated with
Christian girls and gradually become
imbued with the monogamous ideas
held by the Christians. The girls are
advised to adhere strictly to their own
Mohammedan religion as their influ
ence, it is said, would he destroyed il
they abandoned it. When they return
to their own people their influence
tends to eliminate plural marriages
according to Carpenter, who predicted
that the practice will he virtually wip
ed out in the course of a few years.

sixty-five per cent were infected;
with the tubercle bacilli.
Great headway could be made in
checking the spread of tubercutosis, |
if employers would realize the value I
of having their employes undergo
examinations, according to l>r. John

great many cases are, in that way,
detected in the incipient stage and
proper attention effects a complete
