TIE CARTER FRACAS.

Captain John +. Carter did not put
the Iroquois ashore on the occasion
when the Iroquois was assisting the
cruiser st. Louis OUT of the harbor.
In his anxiety Les, the b u | et l n
should not state this fact, Mr.. Car
ter, overcome with anger, made an
unwarranted assault on a reporter of
the B ulletin at the Naval Sta
tion when the reporter was on his
rounds Of duty.
The reporter. who was taken COM
pletely OFF his guard in the brute at
tack, promptly swore out warrant
for Carter to answer to the charge
Of assault and battery. He had no
other redress, as naval orderlies stood
guard to prevent him trying to break
even with an officer Of greater size
and weight.
The editor of the B u ! ct 1 n i'm
mediately called upon Captain Rees,
commandant of the Naval Station,
and laid the case before him.
No demand was made on Captain
Rees that Captain Carter be court
martialed. AS the reporter was leav-
ing town on a special assignment, 1t
was impossible to put the complete
details before the commander of the
Station.
So far as Carter Is concerned. he
is entitled to an ample apology for
ha hau Int
tionally and maliciously misrepre-
sented Nj the Bulletin. On not
one single occasion has this occurred.
II the statement In this paper that
the IroQuois went ashore was re-
Election on Captain Carter. who II
appears was In command at the time
or hurt his feelings. he is entitled to
retraction. entitled to have any
statement he wishes published. And
the fact that Reporter Moore told
him SO and that the Bulletin Is
the one paper from. which he admit
ted he could be reasonably sure of a
fair deal on this or any other matter,
makes his assault on Mr.. Moore,
whom he has also admitted was cour-
teous and well-meaning, the more
brutal and cowardly.
As a matter Of fact, and based up
on Carter's own statement, his real
grievance is against another evening
3 paper and another reporter. whom
he promises to attend to when he
first sets eyes on him.
II the other reporter is hollow
chested and wind-broken, weighs less
than Carter. or is less prepared for
a fistic encounter, or is taken entire.
ly on his guard, or orderlies are pres
emit to prevent more than the first
blows being struck. we have no
doubt that Carter will do him and
do him good"

TO IMPROVE 4ANGOES.

The public Is indeed interested In
the progress Of Hon. S. NJ. Damon's
effort to bring high-grade mango
from the Philippines to Hawaii.

think of 1t. they are also very ap-
preciative Of the time and money ex-
pended to promote higher grade Of
fruit In the Islands.
This work of Mr.. Damon's means
much to. the Territory. His purpose
is not to secure few special varie-
ties for his own amusement or to sat-
isfy the demands Of his own table. A
better mango and one that may be
marketed at profit is his objective
and. when once secured, the commu-
nifty is welcome to reproduce as many
trees as possible and reap the benefit
of his experience obtained at no small
cost.

Dear Sir:-The beautiful yacht
Hawaii arrived in good time Sunday
evening. the 21st, and we are proud
OF her. All who have seen her say
she Is the finest craft of her kind
that has come to this coast, and
there seems to be a general desire
that she win the race, as II would
stimulate the desire for better class
of yachts on this coast, and con-
tinuance of racing In these waters.
am pleased with the prospect of
our winning the Cup" Capt. Har-
ris wished me to inclose few lines
from him. He says there will be no
liquor on board when the Hawaii
leaves port, and he will win the race
or sail the sticks out of her, IL that
were possible-"Give me the wind
and we Will win" Everything is
being done as well as possible to
have her In trim for the Fourth.
when she will start on her triumphal
trip across the Pacific to show the
other yachts the way to sail to the
Islands.
The fact of the Hawaii being built
and equipped and entered in this race
by popular subscription has made
the people here appreciate what kind
of people we have at the Islands, and
will advertise the Islands more than
can be estimated. ] am very sorry
that one Of youtcould not have come
up to represent the club; possibly
someone will come on later steam
err SO as to be here by the Fourth. ]
hope SO.
With very kind regards and three
cheers for the winning yacht-it will

The French revolution had It's ef

port, the tendency being greatly TO
simplify costumes, says the English
Illustrated Magazine. Young men in
England adopted the short coat, light
waistcoat and pantaloons inaugurated
in Paris by a certain set who affected
to desire the old court fashions.
The use of powder, made more ex-
pensive by taxation, quite died out and
short hair became universal.
Trousers and Wellington boots, at
first worn only by the military, were
adopted BY civilians about 1914, and

Noise.

Noise, at first cultivated in this land
by the Indians, has reached its climax
in the college yell 1t is used at DO
litical conventions, at christenings and
at women's clubs. No monument was
necessary for the man who first in
vented noise. His work lives after
him.
Noise is used by cities, which have
the first call for it. They split it up
into as many sounds as possible and
divide it among all.
Noise varies in its volume and in.
tensity, from embryonic and immature
