BRITISH GUNNERY.
Our Navy Has Opened the Eyes of the
 English to Their Deficiencies.

London, Sept 13.-The American navy having opened the eyes of British experts to ,he paramount importance of gunnery; to which insufficient at tertion has been given in the Britisfl navy, alarm has now spread to the efficiency O. rife shooting in the army. Ill 1892 the percentage of men classet. as marksmen was 6.74; 1893, 11.51 ;; 1894, 329. In 1896 and 1897 ,he sec and third class shots amounted to so and G4 per cent. Such men cannot be reckoned upon to hit an advancing en- emy at any range. The superiority Of the Afridis SS marksmen in the recent frontier campaign in India was a bitter pill. and the thought of Mayuba hill is now being held up as warning to the War office 10 desiS. from the cheese paring policy.
 The British soldier has an allowance of only 119 rounds of ammunition for his annual course of training, which is regarded as absurdly inadequate.

CLOSED GATES.
No Avenues to 3 Livelihood Open in

Honolulu, Aug, 30.-tSpecial core apondence Of The Republican. Ut Is not necessary to spend an entire week Lele to obtain complete information e. business conditions Sufficient may i be learned :n two days, after which all that one sees and hears is corrobora- tive
 Briefly. then, Honolulu controls the Hawaiian islands. Every business nec- e:-si'ry 10 population Of 30000 is here and numerously duplicated. The prin- cipal stores are owned by circle of relationship, each enc created into a stock company, and the stock limited f doubt if similar condition of family compact can De found anywhere in the W orld. Nearly all the merchants are related in some way, and the steam lship and sailing vsesel companies also being ill the combination enables the merchants to sell goods brought in at i lower figures than one not within the circle could nope to compete with. As against the white and native business r.en enters the competition of Japa- rose, Chinese and Portuguese small
 rgerchants. 1t is almost astonishing ;to learn the prices of clothing, boots, shoes, and all kinds of wearing apparel in these latter stores. As an illustra- itiCn one may go into one of these Japa- nese stores. select very fine grade of rClSee, submit to measurement, and in three or four days have coat and ves>, 8 splendid fit. at cost of from
 S4 to $6. Duck and crash suits, made t, order. from $4 to S7.50, and cloths Of all grades for from S5 to $35. the lat ter of fine imported goods The Japa- nese and Chinese work in these stores just as they do ill cur laundries, at all hours, day and night, un'oil one won ders if they ever sleep. They have in- vaded every business and every trade from blacksmithing to ladies dress making; from lumber dealing to hack
 driving.
 Between the close corporation of the family relationship and the cheap la 1 Dor system of the Jap and Chinese it
 is my opinion that a white stranger
 would be open to a charge O. near 1 sightedness who attempted to break
 through the long existing barriers. l Tie labor conditions are the same.
 The Japs, Chinese and Portuguese,
 working by contract or per diem, living
 as ,hey do On poi, rice and fish, almost entirely close the doors of the field ot
 labor to the white man. Since the pas
 sage Of the Newlands resolution hun
 dl eds of laboring and tradesmen have come here from the states, and after a brief stay, long enough to learn the conditions, return as they came. Many
 unfOrtunates are still here unable to
 get back. and how they manage to live : is one of the mysteries. It is a cer-
 tainty that laborer or mechanic makes
 g mistake to come here unless sent fer.

Among the latter l hear of neither a Choate, Webster, UCcnnor or anything ap- preaching any of our heavyweights be- fore the bar The methods of secur- ing business Tn this line would be called unique (to say the least of i) with us. As far as 1 can learn every law office has In employ Jap. a China man and a native. The lawyers call tkem interpreters, but I take it that their principal duty is 10 drum up and bring in clients.

and Q numbef of capitalists and it is expected that contracts for several new American steamships will be signed.
 On the Pacific coast the Union Iron works have recently launched q num- Der of craft and now have on the stocks four steel steamships, which are to fly the American flag. They are of 12,O40 tons. There is also building at the yards one steel steamship of 4,7OG tons for foreign account. A large inquiry is reported by this company by pros. pective builders
 It is seen from the reports of the eight leading shipbuilders that they have, all told, thirty-six American steamships HOW building, six for for eign account, while the government has twelve vessels under construction in their yards. The figures show that when the vessels are completed the American merchant marine will have over 100000 tons added to it's credit And this is only from eight yards.
 The rush apparently is to build only steam vessels, fer not enc of these companies has q sail craft on the stc cks.-New York Commercial.

A MISSOURI BAND.
It Had the Distinction of Being the Best of Twenty-Five at Camp Alger.

Kansas City, Sept. 13.-The Third regiment band comes home loaded with honors. Colonel Gross said this morn ing that the band was acknowledged by all to be the best at Camp Alger, and thero were twenty-five bapds there from all over the country. In Camp Alger General Butler, major general of the First division, used to send to the Second division headquarters and bor- row the Third regiment band when he had distinguished visitors or was en- tertaining friends. President McKin- ley heard about the music made by the Third regiment band and sent for it
Arizona republican., 1898-09-14

to hear it play. The band went to the White House and played on the lawn. President Mckinley, his wife and niece listened to the music and applauded it and asked for more. When the band was through playing the president in vited Colonel Gross and his staff and the members of the band into the White House. He complimented the musi- clans highly and gave the leader a bouquet and introduced each Of them to Mrs. Mckinley and his niece. When the regiment was in camp near liar risburg, Pa., Governor Hastings invited the band to play at the executive man. sion and it did so and was compli- mented by the governor and his staff.

Accident to John Williams.

Thursday morning John Williams of
saltwater, was in town. He is here yet
and alive. Many people think he has
no excuse for living after running into
the engine of a passenger train moving
at some miles per hour. John does not
do just what other people do. He didn't
swear off on January one. And he had
read somewhere that Uncle Coils runs
slow trains. Thursday morning John
saw No. 2 coming into the Wadsworth
yard. He thought it was slow and went
to cross in front of it. He didn't. When
he came to, the decision was in favor of
the engine. The missions were all
Johns. When John realized he was in
for it, he couldn't 20 forward or back
ward and he went upward. When he
came down he landed on the engine
pilot and the airhose pipe caught the
seat of his trousers and saved Johns
life. The train was stopped within
three car-lengths and John, bruised and
battered and punctured and bloody, was
taken from the pilot. DIR. Kistler took
hira in for repairs and now John is a
little sore but much wiser. He has a
better idea about the speed of trains
than he had before.

In regard to the jumping OF mining
claims upon which assessment work has

Supreme Court of Colorado decided some
years ago that if a claimant was on the
ground at a reasonable hour on New
Year morning, prepared to perform his
annual assessment work for the previous
year, and continued such work until
properly completed, he can hold the
claim no matter how many location no.
