! Minneapolis Times: Social science
Is beginning to apply itself in earnest
to the investigation of the causes OF the
epidemics Of crimes and violence-sui-
eide, murder, etc. Sociologists and
psychologists are diligently inquiring
how much our social abuses, our ne
glect Of the poor, our violation Of phys
ical laws, the trifing with human life
which they encourage, as though hu-
man life were too cheap to be hedged
about Il protected by all possible
means; our playing with the passions
which, like wild beasts, are chained in
the brain and blood, have to do in pro-
ducing the suicides we deplore and the
murders that appal. 1t is a vast sub
ject, and one that affords a boundless
field of inquiry for the ~profoundest
scholarship and the most conscientious
study.

Japan MAY SEIZE HAWAI-.
There Are 10000 Adult Japanese ON the
Island to 10000 Native Men.

San Francisco, April 2~0.-Honolulu.
April l3.-Correspondence of the United
Press per steamer Australasia is posi-
lively learned here that public senti-
ment in Japan is strongly turned Ia the
direction Of taking possession or
Hawaii. While the native Hawaiians
still constitute the largest nationality.
"a. 900 to Japanese %, 200, the latter have
the largest number of male adults. be-
ing 20, 600 to the natives 5000. There
can be no doubt that a small japanese
squadron, with 1000 troops, ~co-operat-
ing with resident japanese, could easily
overcome any resistance possible Tor all
the rest of the population of Hawaii 10
make. The safety Of this government
against conquest by Japan must be IN
the protection of the United States.
Failing in that, appeal must be made 10
British protection. The feeling OF this
government is becoming clear that 1t
may at an early day find itself under
the necessity of surrendering these
islands TO England in order to escape
Japanese aggression, unless the United
States adopts a definite and decided
policy Of protection.

a shadow Combat.

People residing in Gay alley neigh.
borhood witnessed a rather unique fight
last night. Ed Cleary, a musician, who
carried about his person a jag Of a
weeks standing. while passing through
the alley happened to look behind him
and saw his shadow, says the Nashville
American. He thought the shadow
was a man and shook his fist at 1t.
and the shadow in return did the same
thing at him. This made Cleary mad,
and he cried: IF you are looking for
trouble I'm your game" Then he lay
down and beat the shadow until blood
trickled from his fists. and when he
saw that his silent foe was i~nvincible
he got several rocks and ran the shadow
for fifty yards or more. As he turned
back he saw that the imaginary man
was still chasing him. He increased
his walk to a run and the shadow did
likewise. Finally he recognized that
the imaginary foe was clean grit and
had got all the best of the fracas, and
he continued n hasty retreat, the
shadow chasing him into the arms OF
a policeman. At the station he wanted
to shake hands with the shadow and
make friends, but the officer hustled
him off TO a cell.
