We have told of the carelessness

coming to the curve on the corner
of B%ordentown avenu and Broadway,
several times in these columns. There
are other curves, II on the corner
of Broadway and Main street. for in

less. They seldom blow a horn at
either place. Yesterday, as "A young
man was alighting from a trolley ear
on B~ordentown venue just us it
reached broadway, a handsome auto
mobile belonging to a party residing
in %Sayreyille, turned the curve from
Roradway and Just graZed the coat

EIGHT ON RROADWAY.

A terrible fight occurred in Broad

il is said. about an unpaid bill. the
story goes that George Preston
knocked down Dennis Ryan, on
Broadway. and shortly afterwards
Dennis Ryan, who keeps a hotel in
the Smith building, John Ryan and
Charles Thompson started in TO do
Preston up. They succeeded in cut
ting Preston's face pretty badly. At
one time he was on the trolley tracks
and they pulled him off by his legs.
The policemen arrived on the spot
inst as the fight was over. Some say
that Preston is going to have the
others arrested. This is how some
little school children described the
fight: ooh. it was terrible. They
dug at each others faces with their
hands just like dogs, and n little
girl got sick when she saw ii and
went home instead of to school, but
she came to school later. Z

THE CHINESE OF HAWAII.
Are Fond of Athletics and Are I'm.
portant Factors in Amateur
Sports.

A striking example of the adoption
of American ways by the Chinese of
Hawaii was given in the field meet
sports of the Chinese Athletic club Of
Honolulu on the Chinese New Year.
The Chinese Athletic club itself is an
example of the same thing. In fact,
Chinese abilities. Chinese in athletics
and Chinese athletic organizations are
factors of considerable Importance in
amateur sports in Hawaii, and form
some of the strongest bonds of mutual
good will and the most active means
of mutual understanding between the
races.
II is a frequent, almost a universal,
observation of visitors to the Iia-
Wai!an islands that the Chinese Of Ha-
wall seem different from those of Cali
fornia and other parts of the main
land Of the United States. Tboy seem
less separated from the white race, and
their oriental characteristics seem less
r%epugnant.
1t is d favorite belief of those il
Hawaii intero sted in such things that
the difference is not in the Chinaman,
but in his environment. Coming here,
he net with no unfriendliness, no
physical violence because he was a
Chinaman, no discriminating laws.
Though there has never been a single
case of a Chinaman marrying a white
woman of pure blood. intermarriage
with Hawaiian women has been fire.
quent. and the results are said to be
almost invariably beneficial. The
children of such Unions usually have
the best qualities of their parents,
and these intermarriages gave perma
hence to Chinese residence here. They
gave the feeling of a common inter
est in the country, and no doubt did
much to break down the barriers That
in America have prevented the Chi
nese from feeling the effect of environ
ment as other aliens have, or from
adopting our customs and our life.
1t first manifested itself in tie
schools, where Cninese youths felt
the emulation which prompted compe.
titiOn with companions of other races,
Then, as there were schools estab'
lished especially for the education OF
the Chinese youth, these schools emu
lated distinction in athletics, and
sought the laurel in competition. For
many years Mills institute, a school
primarily for Chinese, has annually
sent representatives and teams IL
compete with plpils of similar age
from Kamehameha school. an insti-
tuition for Hawaiian youths and with
st. Louis college, the high school and
the Punahou preparatory school, in
which there were pupils of many
races In these contests the Chinese,
while by NJ can the leaders, main.
tanned a creditable record.
