Record Was Beaten.

a few OF the kamaainas still insist
that the food Of last Thursday was not
so bad as some visit2uons OF similar
nature many years ago. The fact Of the
matter IS that there is no parallel Of
the rainfall Of the food day or of the
body OF water seen.
Prof ". D. Alexander. in comment
ing on the food, remarked that II was
a good thing improvements had been
made in recent years in the low lying
residence districts. He thought that
otherwise the loss Of life and property
would have been something appalling.

II Is clear that We will have an enor'
nous extension OF trade with Cuba, Porte
Rico and the Philippines as soon as peace
Is made. More than this, the war itselI
has acted as a stimulus to our Industries
Il has led our manufacturers and mer'
chants 10 turn their attention to foreisn
trade to a much greater extent than be-
fore. They begin to realize that there Is
an enormous trade which they can obtain
II they viii take the trouble 10 seek il.
The wide discussion OF colonial policy
Tor the United States. the vast amount
of information. which has been printed
concerning the wes, Indies ana the Is
land empire Of the Paeiae, have been OF
distinct educational value. Our manufae-
turcrs and traders have had their hOri-
1ons enlarged. It is not TOO much to say
that we are at the besining Of an era OF
trade development that will enormously
Increase our foreign market and make US
sveutually the supply depot o. the worid.

REGULARS AND VOLUNTEERS.

From an Opinion by General Wheeler.
In regard to the difference between reg
ulars and volunteers We must Be fair. Jus,
and homes, in this matter Many of the
volunteers LEI, positions with large sala-
ries and comfortable and luxurious homes
10 serve their country. They were self.
saeracins; they We're brave: they we're
chivalrous, Bu, truth eompels me to say
tina, for effectiveness in battle they could
not be expected to equal trained soldiers.
The regular army officers and men had
been trained 10 ss,lmS,e distances by the
eye and to adjust their sights With grea,
precision: consequently. when they went
into action every man was an exper,
marksman. and they used their rifles with
most marvellous accuracy. Il is touching
TO see the regulars get some Of the Amer
lean newspapers, read % how redoubt az
ter redoubt was taken by the volunteers,
and scarcely any mention was made OF
the regular army. How disappointed and
dlsgusted they were! one captain turned

truth will Be told when history Is writ
