attention is called to the wound by their

attention is called to the wound by their
comrades.
Accidental wounds in battle resulting
from explosions Premature discharges,
awkwardness of inexperienced soldiers and
from other causes are very numerous. EX-
amples without number might be cited
where soldiers and even officers of high
rank have met their death in this way. 1t
is often said that Stonewali Jackson, the
brilliant confederate leader, was killed by
an accidental shot from his own men. In
the celebrated English night attack at
Tel-el- Kebir, many of the wounds receiV-
ed by Lord Wolseley's soldiers were from
his own rifles
Due to the fact that the first sensation
of pain from a wound is often felt where
the bullet comes out instead of whre it
enters, men are often led to believe that
they have been shot from behind by their
own comrades, whereas in reality the
bullets have come from in front. 1t is
claimed that in the Crimean war fully one
third of the wounds treated were supposed
by the wounded men to have come from
behind, though the surgeons well knew
from the character of the shot holes that
most of the missiles came from the enemy.
At the battle of lnkerman bullet nit an
officer in the neck and came out behind.
He supposed he had been prlcked with
sword from behind, and tuHed in time
to see a soldier just in the rear or him fall
dead from the same bullet. In the same
manner a soldier in one of England's re-
cent foreign wars, while trying to force
a landing under fire, turned around an
grily and demanded who had struck him
with bayonet in the calf OF the leg: IN
point of fact he had really been shot from
in front and the bullet had gone out be-
hind.
Instances in this way might be given
indefinitely to illustrate the queer casu-
alties of battle and the curious pranks
PLAYED by bullets. But those that have
been given suffice to show that though the
carnage of battle is a terrible thing to
behold, vet the actual suffering on the
field IS probably not very great; and that
even so grim visaged monster as war
may oftentimes have his ludicrous side.

The Annexation of Hawaii.
To the Editor of the Press:

New York, June 21st, 1897.
Dear Sir:-Your article advising eau
ton as to Hawaiian annexation strikes
me as just and accurate. "The large
majority of the people in the Hawaiian
Islands do not desire annexation When
the Asiatics are deducted from the 100, 900
people there, only about 10000 are left.
OF these, 10000 are Hawaiians and half
whites, with few South Sea Islanders
The remaining population are largely i'm
migrant Portuguese from the Azores and
elsewhere. Any sea captain can inform
us of the nature of these people. They do
not desire to stay in the Hawaiian Is
lands; they go back to San Francisco
when they can get there. Ignorant of
our language, clannish, utterly foreign to
us, they would not be the sort of stuff of
which to make state
1t is not probable that American settlers
will go to the Hawaiian Islands to live.
All that they could do would be to raise
sugar, rice, or bananas. Tropical fruits
from Hawaii have only restricted mar
ket in California. The coffee culture
does not thrive. The best efforts to
Doom coffee there have not succeeded.
The writer is well acquainted with a
thrifty Scotchman in Kona, on Hawaii.
Years of labor have enabled him to live
with tolerable comfort; but his children
have no future on those islands. A few
men own most of the land. The indus
tries most profitable require plantati on
labor in hot sun. Americans find it too
much for them; cheap Chinese and
Japanese. under a. sort of slave system are
the only men who do the hard work.
1t is not easy to see the advantage to
any Except the office holding classes and
a few planters and merchants) which can
come from annexation. The laborer
from the United States can find little to
do; Chinese and japanese and Portuguese
underbid him. The whole affair is in
iquitous, an attempt to fasten the rule of
a few inscriptions men upon a friendly
and unofending people.
Very respectfully,
HENRY C. CARTER

Hungarian Aperient Water Controversy,
In the suit of the firm Of Andreas
Saxlehner of Buda Pest (Emilie
Saxlehner. proprietary against Charles
Graef & Co., New York, the latter were
only nominal defendants as agents of the
Apollinaris Co., London, the action being
practically against the London company.
This is, it appears, the first suit against
the Apollinaris company in this country,
who, on the other hand, have on occasions
been compelled to institute proceedings
against infringers of their trade mark
rights.
In view of this, as well as the promi-
nence of the Apollinaris company, and
the attention that has been directed to
the Hungarian Aperient Water contro-
versy, the decision just handed down by
Judge Lacombe of the United States Cir
cult court after full hearing on motion
for preliminary injunction is of interest.
Judge Lacombe's decision is to the fol.
lowing effect:
Saxlehner has no right to the Red
Diamond label that was used by the
Apollinaris company on the Hunyadi
Janos label until March, 1896, when ii
discontinued the sale of that water, and
which is now fused by that company on
its "Apenta" Hungarian Aperient water
label.
"Haying handled the original Hunya di
Janos SO long and become well known as
the exclusive importers of it into this
country the Apollinaris company, when.
it took up another variety of water, was
bound, in good faith to the public,5 to
offer the new water in dress so different
as to challenge the attention of the pl1r-
chaser to the fact that it is some Other
mineral water to which the Red Diamond
is now affixed. This has been DONE The
label Of the ''Apenta' water now sold by
the Apollinaris company is totally unlike
the old Hunyadi Janos LABEL
Saxlehner's motion for an injunction is
consequently, in all particulars: denied
and the Apollinaris Co.'s rights to the
Apenta label and the Red Diamond there
on are sustained.
Briesen & Knauth appeared fol-
Saxlehner, and Edmund Wetmore and
Henry Melville for Charles Graef & Co.
