New York Post, Sept. 81
HONOLULU, August 21.-In the
10000 inhabitants of the Hawaiian
Islands are found about $1,000 children
enrolled in the schools. OF this num-
Der about 5000 are of Asiatic origin
1000 being japanese, and 1000 Chinese
5000 pure Hawaiian, 5000 part Ha-
waiian, 1000 Portuguese, 1000 of Amer
lean parentage, the remaining 1000 be-
ing divided between the British, the
German, the Scandinavian, the Korean,
so small a number it is probably the
most mixed school population on the
face of the globe.
In the instructing of these boys and
girls both the public school and the
private, the national and the church
school are used The ecclesiastical
schools were of early origin, Oahu Col
lege being opened by the American
Board missionaries in 1S41. Catholic
as well as Protestant were and are
these schools of secondary instruction.
The Buddhists have also recently es-
tablished their schools In the same
year of 1S41 public schools were estab-
lished. Since the Japanese and Chi
nese have come in large numbers,
schools for these children, and for these
Il.
Their sessions are usually so arranged
as not to interfere with the sessions
of the public schools. They are, in
deed, national schools; their chief pur-
pose seems to be to promote knowl-
edge of their own language and liter
ature.
The mixed character of both the
private and the public schools is also
seen in the nationality of the teachers.
Although out of a total of some 700 in
structors about one-half are of Amer
lean origin, the other half are divided
among Hawaiian and part Hawaiian,
British, German, Portuguese, French,
scandinavian, chinese, japanese, and
other peoples. 1t is, furthermore, not
to be forgotten that of the some dozen
different races found on the islands,
the children represent mixtures of al
most every variety of blood. A pic
ture lies before me, containing nine
teen boys and girls-students of pure
blood, one sees students part Hawai-
ian, and part Filipino, part French and /
part Portuguese, part Norwegian and
part Hawaiian, part Chinese and part
part japanese and part Ha-
waiian, part American and part Ha-
waiian. 1t is, indeed, microcosm of
all school children and teachers of the
South and the North, of the East and
IF the West.

ENROLLED TOGETHER.

III all the puDllc ScllOOlS, anu III HloS'
of the private ones (these being some
specially endowed schools for the ma
tive Hawaiian boys and girls) the chill
dren of each and of all these races are
enrolled The enrolment begins with
the kindergarten and ends only with
the end Of the public school system in
the High School and the Normal. In
all these grades and orders these pupils
study in the same room, sit at neigh
boring desks, recite together, play to-
gether, and finally graduate on the
same day, and from the same plat
form.
The. essential and significant thing
and it is, I believe, very significant
to be said about this mixture or in
termixture is that this cooperation and
communion seem to work in perfect
harmony and unto efficiency. The
methods are simple and natural, and
the results seem to be satisfactory to
every one. The only note of criticism
and perhaps it should not be called
criticisms a remark made to me by
the principal of the high school, Mr..
NJ. M. Scott, who was one of the or
ganizers of the public-school system
of Japan, to the effect that the Amer
lean boys are not so good students as
the Asiatic. In mastering the Latin
grammar, for instance, the Asiatic ones
are better than the Anglo-Saxon. Mr..
Scott has borne public testimony to
the excellence of the Chinese, saying:
81 AS students / find the Chinese young
men truthful, persistent, courteous to
their companions, and deferential to
their teachers. / believe that their
average capacity is equal to that of
their white brethren. Their power of
application far exceeds that of Amer
lean youth. This power, coupled with
their good conduct, makes them favor
ties with all teachers.''
The japanese mind is more alert than
the Chinese, and both seem to excel the
American in patience, in learning, in !
continuous industry, and in eagerness |
n getting an education. "Why do you |
allow these japanese and Chinese to |
beat you?" was asked of a body of |
American boys by their teacher in the
Honolulu High School. ooh! we can t |
lelp it; they just study all the time;
hey take no recess.''

ENGLAND'S GRBAT REcEP-
TON TO GERMAN EMPEROR

Every possible nerve is being strain
ed. says London cable to the New
York Herald. to give the German
emperor and empress reception the
like of which they have never exper-
fenced outsi de of their own country
when they come to England in No
vember. The court officials are CO.
operating with the civic, naval and
military authorities to insure a cor
dial reception, and the result will
probably be such as even to impress
the imperial visitor and his consort.
Not very much can be done to i'm
press the emperor in military way,
but lie is to be honored with naval
welcome Of imposing dimensions.
The whole channel feet, under Lord
Charles Beresford, will go out to sea
to meet him. aud more tlan hun
dred pennants will fly at Spithead to
salute their majesties ON their arrival.
There is no doubt this royal visit
is intended to mark in dramatic and
picturesque way the better understand
ing between England and Germany,
on which this country is now congra-
tulating itself Since the kaiser last
made state entry into the city Of
London many things have happened,
including the notable limitation Of
his own influence in that field of Eu-
ropean diplomacy. The kaiser has
kept the peace through everything,
but so long as he remained domi-
nant figure in European politics the
world had an uneasy feeling that it
was too much at his mercy When
he comes back to London few weeks
hence the popular welcome will be all
the more enthusiastic because by
force of circumstances this feeling
has passed away.
The city is going to exceed itself
in the cordiality and splendor of his
hospitality. The main reception to
the emperor and empress at the Guild
hall will be on familiar lines, hut
the details will be filled in with
quite exceptional solicitude and Law
ishness.

firing the second shot Webb fell and White fired two more shots, all the bullets taking effect in the victim's body.
 The cause of the tragedy, it is said, is due to the attentions re- gently paid by the deceased to the divorced wife of White, from whom he had been legally seper- ated about six months ago. It is said that Webb and the former wife of White were to be married in a short time, which so incensed White as to cause him to take the life of the farmer, as there had been no other trouble or misunder- standing between the two as far as known.

He asked the support, assistance and coop eration of the marshal, the aldeY- men and all good citizens in the matter, and said that he wanted tO serve notice on the aldermen that. if there were any laws on the or dinance book which they did not want enforced, they had better re- peal them at once.
 No business was taken up by the new council except to approve the bond of the new treasurer.
 The report of the retiring treas- urer shows the total receipts from all sources for the past year to be $2, ,344 32. The total expenditures for all purposes were $1,509.W leaving a cash balance of $536.25 on hand.
 The report of the retiring mayor showed that he had assessed q total of GA fines during the year, the total amount of which was SIS.
