Stuck to the Ship.

Norfolk, Va, April 5.-The steamer
Seaboard, of Philadelphia, which sailed
from New York for Mobile Monday
last, put in here in distress shortly af-
ter noon roday. A great hole was stove
in her above the water line. She was
towing astern a swamped llfeboat, and
everything aboard gave evidence of the
storm and stress which she passed
through. The storm was so threaten
ing at one time that the crew deter
mined to abandon her, but the lifeboat
which was launched soon filled and
sank. The crew feared to attempt to
escape in the other boats, and then
decided to stick to the steamer, and
managed finally to bring her into port.

The weather tonight IS cold, but
damps to a degree that there is nc
danger of frost. That being the case,
fruit and truck are comparatively
safe. The cold snap, however, had
added to the. troubles of the farmers
who are already weeks behind in theil
work. ~

humidity of the soft fieecy flakes re-
suited in the rapid disappearance OF
the post easter ermine.

Discomfort of Porto Ricans.

San Juan de Porto Rico, April 81
Although there is not at present an,
danger of serious disturbance, there il
considerable dissatisfaction among tb'
lower class natives Throughout the isl
and, and there has been a good dea
of violent talk by the ignorant agains
the new regime. The chief cause o
this ant-American feeling is the in
crease in the cost of living since tht
American occupation began, and the
ill-treatment that many of the natives
in the country districts have received
at the hands of rough soldiers.
Dissatisfaction is also expressed al
the delay in making the island part
or territory of the United States
with privileges and advantages that
would accrue to the island from such
a relation, especially in the matter Of
trade. This the Porto Ricans were IN
doubtedly led to believe would be the
result Of the acquisition of Porto Rico
by the United States. But, as things
have turned out, the prices of all kinds
of commodities have advanced con-
siderably, and the cost of living is very
much higher now than it was in the
days of Spanish dominion. The mer-
chant, moreover, is uncertain as to what
customs duties he will have to pay, and
he does not care to order more than is
actually necessary. Nor is the agrlcul.
turist in a mood to extend his cutiva-
ton until he can be assured of a safe
market for his products
Everybody is getting along with the
least possible expenditure, and there is
undoubtedly much misery and discom.
fort. Many who are without employ.
ment are lying hungry aboutth towns
and they constitute the material which
mischief-makers use in working up ir-
ritation against the Americans.
The conduct Of the United States
troops in fonce, Caguas and other
places has aroused many Of the natives
to defend themselves, and in some en-
counters the soldiers have come off sec.
ond best. These collisions are probably
the basis of statements made i'm the
United States which represent the
Porto Ricans as strongly inclined to
start revolution. The fact is that
little more courtesy in dealing with
them would not only have wonder.
fully quieting influence, but would
greatly facilitate the settlement of
other questions pressing for solution.

when leave was granted, and the city
would not be overrun with troops.
That the scheme is feasible is plain
enough. 1t will be a good thing for
troops which are required for tropical
duty to get somewhat enured to eli
matte conditions by staying for a peri
cd i'm our sub-tropical climate. The
amount of sickness which has arisen
among the troops has been largely
caused by bringing men from the brac-
ing air of the temperate highlands into
the steam bath atmosphere of the full
tropics at sea Lowell But a gradual ac-
climating of the troops willsworS much
for their advantage.
As the scheme has been told to The
Star the soldiers brought to the camp
will be under very rigid discipline. The
plan being not only to acclimate the
men, but to drill them into a perfect
fighting machine, and it is for carrying
out complicated evolutions that so
large an extent of land will be requir-
ed. So the Leilehua Plains may yet
echo with the notes of the bugle and
the tramp of armed thousands. and the
words of command may ring back
from the eastern slopes of the Waia-
nae mountains.
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1899-01-13

That the fund for repairing school
houses in the district of Honolulu is
about exhausted argues two things,
either the Commissioners of Education
were remiss i'm not asking for sufficient
funds for this particular purpose, or
there has been far too lavish an eXpen-
diture which they have not properly
checked. In the matter of the Board
of Education the Legislature was liber-
al and gave all that was asked. There
was never any cavil about the amounts,
indeed there We're members who were
willing to increase some of the sums
asked for, but it was pointed out that
the Minister and his colleagues must
know their business and the amount
was enough.
