Columbian Naval Review Refused.
WAsHINGToN, Feb. S.-The House nava
committee at its meeting yesterday com
pleted the naval appropriation bill. A
strong appeal was made by some OF the
members OF the committee to recommenc
the construction of one additional battlt
snip, but this was voted down. The com
mittee also refused to appropriate $500 Ol0
recommended by Secretary Tracy for Ia,
columbian naval review at Hampton
hoads ana New York. An effort will be-
MADE TO secure this appropriation when
the Dill comes up for consideration, but
as the Democrats are opposed to il there
Is very little chance OF its being carried.
Alter the naval appropriation bill had
been completed by the COMMITTEES the
chairman moved that n battleship of
twelve hundred tons, to be used on the

ELLIS SCHOOL HISTORY.

From an examination OF Ellis school
history OF the United States, it becomes
clearly evident that i. is not the proper
book for use in the public schools. In
noting the events OF the rebellion, the
intent Of the author to ayoid the use of
language that might prove objectionable
to the south, seems to have been studied.
The war is not referred to as a rebellion !;
but in every instance it is mentioned as
the civil war. The picture is so mildly
drawn that the lesson, tina. rebellion is
a great crime, is lost upon the pupil. In
mentioning the battle of Gettysburg.
the Confederate officers and men, their
movements, ability and courage are
landed in the most eloquent language,
while the ''Federals,' as Ellis calls the
union troops, are passed without evea
favorable mention. Lincoln's biography
is brief and does not represent the true
character OF that noble patriot. The
book gives the portraits OF JEFF. Davis
and Gen. Lee, with copious foot notes in
which the latter is mentioned as the
greatest military leader OF his time,
while Grant is not spoken OF, except in
casual way. This discrimination is not
able in many other instances where the
leading officers OF the two armies are
mentioned together. IL is the same
through the whole history OF the re-
Lellion, and aside from this discriuina-
ton, which units the history for use in
the public schools, there are other gla--
ing errors. In the battle OF Lexington
Ellis claims there were 65 British sol.
diers killed, while all other historians
place the number ut from $50 TO 275.
He also makes several blunders in men.
tioning Braddock defeat, and especially
in the skirmishes prior 20 il. The por-
traits OF Benedict Arnold and Major An
DIRE are given, together with TWO pages
OF history covering their crime, while
such prominent men as Webster, Sew
ard and Blaine are not mentioned. The
history OF the American Indian covers
but two pages. We might 90 on through
the whole history, showing inaccuracy,
missta.ements and emissions; bat the
above should be sufficient 10 cause the
banishment OF the .Ii1tory from the pub
lie schools. We regard the book as
wholly unfit for use in the schools.

FALSE ALARM.
Prompt Response of Forces Only a
Gun that Wouldn't Shoot.


Between and o'clock yesterday
afternoon unusual excitement was
noticed among the National Guards
stationed at the Government build
ing, and presently DeputyMarshal
Marlin, Captain Schlemmer and two
police officers we're seen driving
frantically in that direction. On en-
quiry it was learned that a telephone
message had been received at the
Station that gang of Hawaiian
sharpshooters were congregating i'll
the Opera House. When the police
arrived at the Government building
the guards were found all armed
and ready for an attack. The gat-
ling gun was run out in front of the
building. Deputy Marshal Marlin
entered the Opera House and found
the Hawaii Ponoi Dramatic Com
pany making preparations for the
evening entertainment. An old rice
bird gun without barrel or trigger
was found among their properties.
The gun was to be used by the ma
rine parading the deck in the second
scene of Captain Cook.
Thus the matter was explained.
The guard on patrol at the Govern
ment building had seen the native
taking the gun into the Opera
House and, suspecting a counter
revolution, had raised am alarm and
the guards under Captain Ziegler
were called out. 1t was some time
before matters quieted down, and
the guards realized there was nc
fear of any trouble from the natives
The gun was borrowed from Mr.
Muller, gunsmith, yesterday. In the
former presentation of Captain Cook
no gun was used.
