WHITE AND BLACK
Battle Royal Between United States Troops
10 settle the Queation of Equality.


A revolt occurred at the United States
barracks at st. Louis, Mo-, between white
and colored United States soldiers that
resulted in the injury Of many men, and
probably will cost three lives. AT this
time there ore many recruits at that sta.
ton, and they drew their fret pay, and
made an onslaught on the sutler. Nu-s
merous brawls resulted, and crowd from
New York resented the familiarity OF the
colored troops, and fight followed.
The guardhouse was filled with the dis
orderly ones, and still the rows kept up.
Late In the day drunken colored trooper
was seen pursuing fourteen-year-old
white girl, and party Of white troopers
were seen after him, and in due time
handed him over to the officer of the
day. This seemed to enrsge number of
his comrades, and they forthwith left the
barracks, starting for Carondelet. On
their way they fell in with squad Of
white troopers and proceeded to take
vengeance. The white soldiers made
their escape with few bruises and made
their way to the barracks, where they
soon made up party to handle the men.
Armed with rev0lvers and carbincs, they
started in good order for carondelet, but
before they had gone far they were Or
dered to return and disarm, by the officer
of the day. They refused to return to
their quarters, but laid down their arms
at once and then proceeded after the zen
emy." At the river Des Peres bridge they
met the colored troopers returning. An
encounter Immediately followed, and
knives, clubs and rocks were used. Tho
fight was one of desperation, and the
white mems superior force was offset by
the discipline Of the colored troops who
had entered a second term of service. In.
the mean line, word of the battle had
reached the barracks, and four troops OF
cavalry were ordered out and arrived in
Carondelet in time to save the police from
attack. The .mutineers dispersed, and
they were arrested in detachments on a
general order to arrest all troopers. The
barracks, Carondelet and intervening
country assumed military aspect and
all night the soldiers tread and demand
of shalt" rang out.

more suggestive than pleasant to his
Imagination.
For instance, L would call John
Ying's thoughtful attention to Mum
bers Chapter, XXXIII:
Said the Almighty, "Speak unto
the Children of Israel and say unto
them, When ye are passed over
Jordan into the land of Canaan,
there ye shall drive out all the in
habitants of the land before you ="
and We shall dispossess the inhabi-
tants of the land and dwell therein I;
for have given you the land TO
possess it " = but if We will not
drive out the inhabitants of the land
from before you, then it shall come
to pass, that those which ye let re.
main of them shall be pricks in your
eyes and thorns in your sides, and
shall vex you in the land wherein ye
dwell"
Mark you, l do not cite the above
as possible plan of campaign in
these islands, but to demonstrate to
John Ying the danger of relying toe
much on an isolated pretense of that
wonderful old book.

large majority--of them depend /.
even for the foreign news upon the .
local papers. The great newspapers
of London, of New York, of our
nearest neighbor, San Francisco,
which reach millions, come but
sparsely to the little Kingdom of
Hawaii, and cannot begin to reach
its limited population like our own
insignificant little sheets.
Neither do occasional pamphlets,
handbills, or any other spasmodic
effort of the press reach the people
like the established and regular
newspaper. The latter which has
gradually worked its way, and in-
creased its circulation by degrees,
until its name has become familiar
in nearly every home, is regularly
carried to hooks and corners and to
out-of-the-way places where the
spasmodic emanation never reaches.
And let it be remembered also that
nothing is so hard to root out and
and kill as an established newspaper
which has become regular visitor
and is regarded as household
friend.
The conclusion of the matter is
this: There is no means of reaching
the people equal to the Press:
local daily and weekly newspapers
are the best and most powerful
agents of the Press for reaching the
people of any given community:
the people of our own community
are most thoroughly and effectually
reached by our own regular news
paper publications. Therefore,
those who desire to reach the peo-
pie with their business capabilities,
their ideas, their opinions. etc.,
are wise to avail themselves of the
newspapers, and foolish in attempt
ing to ignore them.

BARBERiNG IN GERMANY.

The German barber on his native
heath differs radically from the Ger
man barber with American improve
ments. In the ordinary provincial
town of Germany man is seated in
a cane-bottomed chair, without head
rest or foot rest. His head is tip
ped back in such manner that the
chair back cuts his neck just above
the collar. The barber turns out q
small soup plate full of water, in
which floats piece of soap. A
small semi-circular gouge in the
rim of the plate is fitted to the GUS
TONER'S Adams apple, and his face
is rubbed vigorously with the stick
of soap till q sufficient lather has
been produced.
The shaving proper is performed
with more of the proverbial Teutonic
deliberation. A few hasty strokes
on either cheek, few more on the
throat and chin, and the man has
been shaved. A little alum is ap-
piled where the blood has started,
the soup plate is again used to aid
in superficial wash, the customer
pays his 2 cents and leaves. There
is no bay rum, no brushing the hair
without extra charge, and no brush
ing the coat, Foreigners, however.
often receive these comforts by pay
ing cent or two.
Shaving at shop rarely costs
more than 3 cents, often only / } cts
BARRIERS are to be found in every
provincial town who are willing tC
go to customers house and shave
him four times week for 25 cents

OUR STREET RAILWAY.

The construction of the street
railway is proceeding, and we are
glad of it. From the point of be-
ginning onKing street, near Richard
street crossing, q portion of the
road is completed as far towards
Fort street as Alakea street, or as
near completed as it can be until
the fishplates arrive, which are ex-
pected by the next Australian
steamer. From Alakea to Fort
street has been skipped for the pre-
sent, while the Government is grad
ing and macadamizing that portion
of the street. In the meantime the
railroad men are placing rails from
Fort street along King street, to-
wards Palama. The men are now
at work in the neighborhood of Cas-
tie & Cookies.
There is not particle Of wood in
this railroad: the material is all
steel. Stout steel rails are laid on
steel sleepers, and the sleepers are
laid on concrete beds. The mate
rial is strong and durable, and it is
being strongly laid. The railroad
is evidently intended to remain and
to last.
The principal objection heard
from spectators is, that the concrete
is wholly unnecessary, as the iron
sleepers laid on the bare ground
would be sufficiently firm. To prac-
tical men, who understand railroad
construction, it is quite superfluous
to say that the objection is based
upon ignorance, for as a matter of
fact, experiment has. demonstrated
that firmness and evenness cannot
be maintained where these sleepers
are laid on the bare earth. and par
ticularly earth of the kind which
underlies our streets.
1t is extremely pleasing to us to
see this work commenced and pro-
crossing; for we believe the street
railway will be great boon to the
public, and will prove here what it
has proved wherever adopted, the
means of building up the city.
Cheap, comfortable and safe con-
veyance from business to home and
from home to business will be accep'
table to nine-tenths and more of the
community. A few may consideritin
furious to their interests, but the
many will be benefited, and thu
good of the many must always take
precedence of the interests of tn
few.

THE CHINESE INTERPRETER.

EDITOR BULLETIN:-I have read
the communication from Mr.. John
Ying, containing q list of young
Chinese who are seeking for the
position of Government interpreter.
According to my opinion what MIR,
John Ying says is perfectly right.
We might expect the officials to
learn what the qualifications of each
one are.
The best plan by which to dis
cover what their attainments are,
would be to have an examination,
and thereby test their capabilities.
The position OF interpreter and
translator is very important, for a
mans punishment or acquital de-
pends largely on the interpreter s
rendering.
The position should be filed by q
man of good character and agree
able manner.

quotes the Christians Bible to
Christian detractors of the Chinese.
He cites us the commandment to
love our neighbor as ourselves,
speaks Of the "mote and beam busi-
ness" and says that the Christians
God is in short no respecter of per-
sons or races, all of which is un-
doubtedly true. But the Christian $
bible is many-sided book and con-
tains many things that puzzle the
Christian himself.
For instance, if John Wing will

treatment of alien races, while he
will find many liberal provisions for
the stranger he will also run across
many direct commands from the

HOW TO REACH" THE PEOPLE.

The principal expedients in vogue
for "reaching" the people are the
three P's-the Pulpit, the Platform,
and the Press; the greatest of these
is the Press.
The Pulpit and the Platform can
only reach those in their vicinity,
and that vicinity is small. The
Press is restricted to no such mar
row limitation; its vicinity is the
world. The Pulpit and the Platform
have first to attract the people to
them, before they can ''reach"
them. The Press reaches the
people in their habitations and at
their avocations-the rich man in
his counting house and the poor man
in a hovel. The Pulpit and the
Platform speak to their hundreds:
the Press speaks to its thousands.
Our respected clergymen address
the congregations which assemble in
their churches: we address the
masses, large percentage of whom
never enter church. Their audi
ence is gathered within the range Of
their vision; ours extends to the
five divisions of the globe. When /;
preacher in the pulpit or lecturer
on the platform utters his voice
though it be the voice of White
field or Spurgeon, its strongest
accent dies in moment and withir

''silent voice" of the Press travels

A correspondent says: ANY one who runs
on the railroad long can understand what
saving it would be To the stock dealer and the
railroads if tho tracks were fenced in. 1t
would prevent cattle straying on the track.
Tho slaughter Of the cattle along the roads is
something terrible, especially in the Indian
territory. To see an engine dash into herd
OF cattle is enough to sioken any one. I've
Known as many as thirty cows and horses to
be killed az ore swoop. The engineer can't
stop, and the only thing be can do is to PIT
On steam and BIT the animals as hard as pos
si5le TO knock them from the track, for if he
do2t he'll darail his engine and probably kill
his passengers. When the engine strikes the
cattle they are knocked ND into tie air and to
one side. and often they burst and festoon the
engine with their ent-aiIS. Sheep are often
killed. II one sheep happens to cross a track
in front Of EN- engine every other one viii fol-
low. and they'll try to go through right under
i1e moving cars. In tho territory coyotes
and deer gro otpcn killed, end there are any
number CT snakes ground up When the
engine is going rapidly birds often fl against
the headlight and SET killed, and the train
men often get lots Of game that way."-Mis-
