came to town and crept into the Portu- guese positions. The latter are now leaving Hawaii in large numbers, de- parting for Mexico, Canada and the United States, lessening the white pop ulation very considerably.
 There is a clashing of interest notice able in the territory; the planters ask ing for more Aslatics, the Labor Trades council and the Merchants association of Honolulu raising their voices against any further importation. The Mer- chants association gives testimony that there have been introduced twice as many Asiatics as have been necessary for the working of the plantations; and that this has resulted in competition disastrous to all but immediate sugar in- terests; and that the surplus labor, numbering something like 50,O0O, has engaged in mechanical, professional and mercantile pursuits.
 The native, too, who, poor fellow, has been going to the wall some time past white peril. yellow peril. the peril of the other fellows industry-has lately been frightened of what work he did cling to, and the Jap. of course, is the person that has got his job from him. The writer in the Times thus speaks of the matter: AS stevedores. fishermen, taro-growers and hack drivers the natives of the soil were earning the wherewithal necessary for a good and substantial living. To- day the Hawaiians are prominent along the wharves, in the fishing boats, upon the taro fields, or the drivers seat only by their absence. The little brown men have taken their places everywhere at a much lower wage"
 The Japs have proven rather danger ous fellows on the plantation; they ap- pear to hold loyalty only to fellow-coun- trymen. Out on this lonely plantation there is enacted deed of violence, on that one an unpopular manager sudden ly dies a mysterious death: but 1t is im- possible to bring anybody to account. the offender is protected by his army of fellow workers.
 It may be the opening up to the Japs of accessible new territory will invite cOlonists in other directions than Ha- vail Far distant be the day when Ha. wal shall be wholly Jspanned.

The Japanese Are Taking
 Possession of Hawaii
The Little Brown Men of Nippon Are Overunnmg the Islands
 Place Becoming OnentaEzed Instead of Amercanized

! Honolulu: Tn 1900, according to the official census, there were 5000 native l born Asiatics in Hawaii, all of whom, within a few years, will have voice iu the elections and political power that It will be impossible to ignore. No fault could be found with this, of course, if it were possible to Americanize the Jap anese in the same way the Irish, Ger
 man, and others are Americanized. But it is impossible. The Japanese are will ing to acquire all the learning that the occident can impart, but they refuse stubbornly to be assimilated in the body | polite, with the result that it has be- come notorious among well-informed people that the islands are becoming orientalized instead of Americanized
 American missionaries of every sect and denomination have made earnest and expensive efforts to convert the Japan csc to Christian and Caucasian ways of thinking, but in vain" resided in Hawaii from 1S61e7, and even then the problem was beginning to make itself felt. Wherever there were Jap laborers there was sure to be more or less trouble; strikes common no lit tie rioting about home of manager and at quarters where the laborers dwelt, as whole the Japs pretty cantaker- GUS. Their ability, however, when they wanted to exercise it, could not be- questioned. They seemed able to put their hand to anything. AS soon as the coolie's contract had expired, off he would trudge with his bundle and search for pastures new, as a rule each new venture leading him little higher com mercially. Jap stores multiplied on the islands; white workmen found their skilled labor undersold; from Kauai on the north to Hawaii down in the south, the Jap swarmed, town and country talk en possession of.
 And what has been the result; what happened to the busted ones? First we upon in Hawaii with much favor as in- dustrious, thrifty, religious, law-abiding citizens. Twenty years ago they came over to Hawaii from Madeira and the Cape Verde islands, began as contract laborers. Gradually they drifted away from the plantations, and in the towns found work that enabled them to build homes of their own; the Portuguese col ony became valuable feature of town
 life, the members good citizens. But the Jap, too, got tired of the country,

A WARNING SHOT.
How Yankee Sharpshooter Brought the Reckless Confederate to
 His Senses.

One of the strange incidents of war, especially during a state of siege, is the friendly relations which exist be- tween enemies when off duty. At one moment the soldiers of the opposing armies will be chatting socially and exchanging favors, the next-shooting each other down as deadly foes. A little incident told by MT. Ripley in his Story of Company F." gives a glimpse of a genial interlude in the grim civil war.
 During the siege of Petersburg, 1t was the custom for the opposing pick cts to grant temporary truces for the purpose of preparing food. Half an hour, perhaps, would be agreed upon, and its limit would be scrupulously ob- served when time" was called. Then every man would hurry under cover.
 On one occasion a confederate was slow to respond to the warning. He, to all appearances, did not realize that he was in sight. While the others hur- ried to their posts, he sat quietly blow ing his coffee and munching, his hard tack. Fortunately for him he was in plain sight of a sentinel less blood thirsty than some. This man thought 1t only fair to give him farther warn ing.
 q say, Johnny, The shouted, times up. Get into your hole!"
 "All right" replied Johnny" still blowing his coffee.
 Just hold that cup still minute and I'll show you whether it's all right or noti" shouted the sharpshooter.
 The confederate began to suspect that he was in fact visible, and he held his cup still for an instant as he looked up and around. This afforded the de- sired opportunity for the sharpshoot- CT. With a well-sent bullet he knocked the cup clean out of the owners hand. With sudden agility the surprised con- federate made haste to disappear, amid the ieers and laughter of both lines of piekets.

the way in speaking of the orientaliza- tion of this territory of Uncle Sam's.
 We'll, what of it; has not it been shown that the Japs are a wonderfully pro- gressive, a very superior people? K-es; but just exactly what is meant by iheir "civilization?" It is very eastern affair, their code of morality anything but high. The Jap quarters in Homo lulu are notorious, most of the poor lit- tie doll-wives there painted ladies. The men are as conceited and aggressive as they are fickle; the Jap character is snot held in highest esteem by the whites in Hawaii. Sad experience has lessened enthusiasm for this coolie importation. And regarding our civilization, the Japanese feel they know very well how much they wish to adopt, how much leave alone. A Japanese paper pub lished in the islands, the Hawaii Shim- DO, a short time ago had an editorial which may be interpreted after this fashion: "Yes, we are very willing to go humbly ot your honorable churches, end even become members of your hon. orable congregations, because thereby we obtain free education in our schools. But accept your religion? Never! Ours is older and better, and there is no req son why you should not embrace itI" The missionaries who brought Ameri- can civilization to the Hawaiian were New England Protestants, and when there entered their field Christians of the Roman Catholic faith the former felt the greatest harm had befagen con- verted Hawaii. What now must the de- scendants of those early New England missionaries think when they find the country overrun by people that make {. bold protest against the faith implanted in the Hawaiians? Surely problem in this way, too.
 The Japs from the first, believe, brought their women along to help in

SHOTGUN" SMITH.
His Own Story of a Terrific Fight with a Band of Arizona
 Apaches.

Throughout Arizona, which in early days was veritable land of carnage, no name was better known than that of William A. Smith, who is just nov enjoying rest in the National home al Santa Monica, and is better known by the appellation of Shotgun" Smith says Allie Alger, in the National Tribune.
 Smith, who is native of Ohio, served during the civil war as lieutenant in the Sixty-frst Ohio. He afterward saw active service with the First United States cavalry in pursuit of the Indians The expiration of his term of service found him still in Arizona. It was in the stirring times when Cochise, at the head of the cruel Apaches, was dealing out death, devastation and destruction throughout Arizona, New Mexico and southern California, that he earned the sobriquet of Shotgun" Smith.
 When seen in his quarters at the beautiful home provided by Uncle Sam for the heroes of the greatest civil war that history has ever recorded, he was, he said, just resting up bit" from his years of strenuous life.
 When asked to relate some of the in. cidents of his career in Cochise's for mer domain, he, with the modesty in. herent in every man of sterling courage. was inclined to demur; but after lit tie persuasion committed himself to the following story, which is told in his own words:
 "It was along in the latter part of the sos. had been mustered out of the First United States cavalry, at this

The yellow peril looms more than a myth over in Hawaii. It looks as though pretty soon there would be no place for, no need of, white men there.
 Once the Jap seemed very tractable, satisfactory element in the land, a fair ly hard-working, peaceable creature, wilhng to labor the day long at stipend of $14 month and keep" himself. But he has increased in numbers at an as- founding rate, he has elbowed workers, both skilled and unskilled, from their foothold, sent them to seek fortune somewheres else. Already the Jap pretty nearly owns Hawaii.
 There are some 10000 of him in pop plation of only 54,0O0, and add to these R8,000 Chinese and we find almost 100,- 900 orientals, as opposed to about 13,- 900 whites. And this sum of whites in cludes, besides Americans, English, Ger man, French and a few other Europeans; NO we may not seem so very far out of

less, have attacked at all points until several had found positions within the inclosure, which would easily have placed us at their mercy; but our Hen. ry repeating rifles did effective work and kept them guessing.
 Knowing they would be still for at least five minutes, got Young to keep peppering at the entrance to the corral, while crossed the open shed at our roundhouse to the office, about 20 feet away, and fetched an additional quantity of cartridges for our Henrys.
 We had been compelled for awhile to resort to the use of couple of shot guns during the latter part of the at tack. q accomplished the matter just in time, and had returned to my post, when Young called my attention to head just peeping over the west side onto the roof, and he was about to fire when caught him and said Wait In few minutes the head was followed by three others. They had found plank and were scaling the roof in hope of drop ping into the corral and obtaining a lodgment from which to have us at their mercy.
 Just as the fourth one arose to his feet I told Young to take the two to the left while attended to the others. One who had almost reached the inner side of the roof took fairly in the head, and he dived in death almost on top of poor Bob. Two more stumbled but wriggled back off the roof to the outside, and one jumped and escaped uninjured.
 Again we had a breathing spell.
 I wonder what next, said Scott.
 "I expect they will tackle the open ing now,' replied.
 But little while Git seemed hours to us) elapsed, when fusillade from the east and south distracted our atten- tion for an instant, when yelp from the dog advised us that something was moving in the front corral, and at that minute Scott Young toppled over, shot through the heart. They had at last discovered our weak point, and as I looked toward the entrance several of the hostiles were coming in.
 we had had time to refill the maga- zines of our rifles, and let go with light ming rapidity, and dropped them in one, two, three order, and still they came, until those inside reached the dead h. dian who had fallen from the roof and rushed him out, while picked off one more before they got out of my line of fire.
 ' ''No one, unless he has been in like situation, can realize the sensation of being alone in battle against these odds; but all thought of was to kill as many as could get before they got me, as I expected they eventually would.
 Again there was a lull, and I was strung to the highest tension of expect ancy, trying to keep sight in all direc- tions at once, when a loud rumble of wagons announced the approach of train and escort, belonging to 8 trader named Lezynesky, on its way to Tucson. The Apaches had scented their com- ing, and had made the final dash for the purpose of rescuing their dead and wounded before retreating, and I was saved. My gratitude for the relief may be imagined.
 We buried poor Bob and Scott Young; then, as soon as possible, Miller and wound up our affairs and left the place.
 Tt had proved tighter corner than I had ever known, and I preferred my scalp to the accumulation of wealth."
