BARRING OUT MEX, Ro PUPILS.
No Co-Education for Two &aces at
Alton, Illin ois-Colored Children
Are Driven Away From the
White Schoolhouse-Their Par
ents Secure Counsel and Will
Fight the Case in the State
Courts.
ALTON, H., Sept. 24.-The city
authorities have taken a hand in the
separate school question. The Chief
of Police was instructed to take his
entire night and day force and keep
the colored children and their par
ents out OF the white school.
For time it seemed that the
policy would precipitate serious
trouble. Policemen were stationed
at each OF the schools, and when the
colored people came with their chill
dren and sought to enter, as they
had the day before, the officers stood
at the door and refused them admit
taDce at the Washington School,
which is in a portion of the city
where the colored people outnum-
Der the whites. The negroes con-
gregated upon a hill back of the
schoolhouse and held consultation
They decided to attempt to put the
children into the school in spite Of
the officers, and marched over to the
schoolyard. For time it seemed
that trouble could only be averted
by permitting the negroes to enter,
but the police held their ground and
threatened to arrest any Of them
who should attempt to enter the
school against orders.
The men and women remained at
a distance and urged the children
to 60 in. Some of them attempted
it, but they we're sent back by the
police, and none were successful
save few boys, who climbed in at
the windows while the officers guard
ed the doors. They were promptly
dislodged, and the colored people
then retired again to the hill back
OF the school house, where they re-
NAMED several hours and theu re-
turned to their homes.
At the Irving and Lincoln schools
the same scenes were presented. A
committee Of three colored men, ac-
companied by their attorney, then
called upon President Fink OF the
school board and asked him if it
we're the intention to persist in the
policy OF excluding the colored
children from the schools attended
by the whites,
Mr.. Fink assured them that such
was the intention OF the board, The
colored people then held another
meeting aud instructed three OF
their number to go to Springfield
aud meet General Palmer, who had
wired them that he would assist
them in an effort to secure in the
Federal court a mandamus compel
ling the city authorities to permit
the negroes to attend school with
the white children.
The negroes insist that the law is
on their side and fatty refuse to
send their children to the schools
built for them. The Supreme Court
decisions in similar cases at Gales
burg, Quincy and Upper Alton en-
courage them in the belief that they
will triumph in the courts,-S. T.

recipients OF the greatest courtesy

The father Of Miss Jones has served

how much his political vinws may

1t is difficult to understand, how
ever, how such fake can have been
published to the world, without
there being some fire under the
smoke. The five young persons
have been brought up, we believe,
to respect age, honor women and, in
a superficial manner, at least, com
ply with the rules which guide the
conduct of decent people. For that
reason we decline to believe that
well-educated kanakas - may we
never have reason to doubt that
they are well-educated-like Ivy and
Matte Richardson aud Arthur Will
der could deliberately have assisted
in insulting Liliuokalani.

HARD 10 Belle gE

The following dispatch from Chi
cago has appeared in several leading
California papers,:
CHICAGO, Septemter 20 - Sorry
will be the plight of five girls aud
boys from the Hawaiian Islands if
ex-Quesn Liliuokalani ever got on
the throne again. Her Majesty was
the subject OF much fun while on
her way to Chicago from San Fran
cisco during the past few days.
Five OF her former subjects, A. L.
G, Atkinson, Ivy Richardson, Alice
Jones, Matte Richardson and
Arthur Wilder, were on the train
bound for schools in the East Such
songs as "She May Have Seen Bet
ter Days." "You're Not the Only
Pebble on the Beach," were sung by
the young students, much to the
anger of the ex.Queen. In fact, she
grew 80 indignant that she called
upon two young men, A. l.. Ahal
(Ahlo) and G.. Carson Kenyon, who
are on their way to Cambridge, Eng
land, and are her faithful adherents,
to chastise the chorus, They failed
after some excitement, and the ex-
Queen left the car and finished her
journey in another, where she was
not bothered by the merry students,
The OK. Queen and her Secretary,
Heleluhi, arrived in Chicago this
morning and left this evening for
New York.
We cannot believe that the truth
has been told in the above para
graph, and we hope, for the sake of
Hawaii's honor, that the item will
turn out to be one of the usual
fakes which disgrace American
journalism.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1897-10-11

That Queen Liliuokalani went
East on the same train with the
young persons mentioned in the dis
patch is possibly correct, but until
we hear directly from members Of
Her Majesty's party, we decline to
believe that the five young Hawai-
ians named in the dispatch could
have deported themselves in man
ner which can only cover themselves
with disgrace, and make those who
brought them up deserving of the
compassion of ladies and gentlemen.

THE D., d. AND b. INSTITUTE.


The report OF the directors and officers
Of the institution for the deaf, dumb and
blind shows the condition of that institu-
ton to be most satisfactory. In the
white institution, there are 1913 blind chill
dren, and in the colored institution, II
blind and 50 deaf children; 122 have been
admitted since the last report, and there
are now present 231 in both institutions
There are 573 blind white children in
the State, less than one-third. of whom
are enjoying the instruction provided by
the State. The board recommends a
compulsory educational law, compelling
the attendance Of all blind and deaf chill
dren, and President Montague makes an
elaborate argument in favor Of such a
law, which was introduced in the last
Legislature, but failed OF passage. Mr.
Montague makes one grave error, assert
ing: North Carolina said to be the most
ignorant State in the Union, the jest,
the butt, the ignorances Of the sister
hood OF States" While lamentally be-
hind in education, North Carolina is
ahead Of FIVE other States in the Union.
The per capita cost OF the students to
the State, counting the 231 now present
as the average number in attendance, is
$173.44 per annum.
The progressive board and the efficient
principal, make strong argument for
increased accommodations, to cost total
of $57, 800, as follows:
For the whites: Assembly, dining room,
ANA boy's dormitory, $4,000; heating
plant and industrial building, $4,000:
pianos, apparatus, machinery, etc, ST.,
500 total, $34,50
For the colored department. For land
So, 900; to complete building and erect
new wing for dormitory, $4,000; indus
trial building and heating plant, $4,000;
furniture and apparatus, $500; total, 3d.
900.
In addition to the recommendations Of
these officers, DR.. Hubert Haywood
physician Of the institution, urges the
pressing necessity of an infrmary at both
institutions, showing that at present
there is no way Of isolating cases Of con-
tagi0n. Drs. Lewis and Battle, who have
given their services free OF charge, make
recommended ton that the General As
acmbly pass an act requiring, If one or
both Of the eyes OF an infant become
inhamed, or swollen, or REDEEMED, at any
time within two weeks attire its birth it
shall be the duty OF the midwife or nurse
to report, in writing to the health officer.
This duty is enforced by penalty of
1 5000 or imprisonment for ak months by
non-perforRanee.
