COMPLAINTS AGAINST SOL
DIERS.

1t is to be deeply regretted that
the cordial relations which in be
ginning of the war existed betw
this community and the American
soldiers have been severed through
the actions OF the men who wear
the uniform of the Great Republic.
We treated them with the greatest
hospitality although the great ma
jority of our people objected to the
annexation OF these islands and de-
plored the day when the Hawaiian
flag was lowered for good and for
ever. Honolulu did not ask for any
thanks for favors past, but we had
hoped that the soldiers who go to
Manila in the name OF humanity
would have treated the community
here with consideration or at least
with decency.

All must come to the scratch when
soever this noisy patch OF ting-a-
lipg-a.ling says, and repeats, lift the
latch and look at the morning. The
proprietor hears the tramp OF feet
in the hall aud says, / must be off

out OF the window orders all the

mikado (his) takes his "plent time,

But, finally the nag grinds along
out Of the yard and goes to seek not
clover, alas! but that tiresome, un
failing banana! We wish we could
get used to seeing those two bananas
always on the table, ever since our
Island life began, and treat them
half politely or more; but, instead
we seem to harbor a grudge against
the old friends and give them a sly
dig to the far edge OF the table, be-
hind the castor when ever we can.

cooks all ready, the housekeeper's

back and looking if we're all on the
right track. Hurry up all hands

And 40 on goes that hurry, hurry,

you think Of being, simply, an alarm
clock for whole house, and then,
instead of being presented with
your board, having that honor thrust

to be told quietly you know, that
you must be making heaps, piles,

morning, and forever at it. And

vandalism can only create hostile
aud bitter feeling against the sold

feeling which can never be to the
benefit OF the relations between the

Yesterday large number of men
from the transports were marched
to Waikiki under command of their
officers. In Kapiolani Park a rest
was taken and on an empty lot ad-
joining the Castle Premises the men
stripped and went into the sea per-
factly nude. Considering the close pro
ximity of the road to the beach such
an action was indecent and unlawful
and should have been prevented by
the officers in command. But some
OF the men, who evidently think
they are in conquered savage
country, strolled along the beach
in ptsris ,sat,lralibus, entered the pri-
vate residence OF we'll known husi-
ness man, in which the lady OF the
house was alone at home, took
possession OF hammocks and lounges
and acted in a manner unbecoming
a soldier and man. The lady tele-
phoned to the Marshal and left her
house to the mercy of the nude
gang Can nothing be done to stop
such conduct or are the military
authorities here helplessly at the
mercy Of the hordes who are called
the flower of the American army9
We understand that Marshal Brown
has addressed letter to Colonel
Mills in regard to this matter, but
will it have any effect7 Colonel
Mills has heretofore assisted the
civil authorities in their efforts to
uphold the law and order OF the
city, and he certainly should have
sufficient power to control the sol
diers who owe obedience to him and
his rank while they sojourning here.
