Evening bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1895-1912, 1910-11-11


one OF the men of this battalion.
clipped from the Kansas City star
ana headed Fo.t Lcayenworth. Kan,
stating that TIE Thirteenth Infantry,
now stationed at Fort Leayenworth,
is scheduled TO leave the states for
TO-, clgn service sometime during the
munth OF April, next year. II has
been rumored that instead of pro-
cecding to the philippines. whore the
! officers and men would have advan-
tage of foreign service, and where
the regiment Is entitled to go after
serving four years in the homeland,
they will be ordered to Hawaii. TAX
ing II from the general thought OF
the arti lie, II is very evident that
the officers and enlisted men are dis
| appointed and do not want to come
to Honolulu.
Nc Dislike for Hawaii.
II Is not that the men now sta
tened at Fort Leavenworth dislike
coming to Honolulu for Hawaii IT.
self, but that foreign service will be
lost for at least four years more. The
increased pay for officers and the
| additional 20 per cent, together
with double time for the enlisted
men, are what the 18th Infantry is
looking to. In the minds of the
members of the Goth Infantry. they
see no reason why the War Depart
ment should show any Partially re-
garding distribution of troops.
Hawaii Home Service.
The second battalion OF the goth
Infantry has served nearly four
years in these Islands, with only
home service to their credit, while
the other two battalions have had
advantage OF foreign service in the
Philippines. II Hawaii Is to remain
in service the same as that in the
States, and each regiment to take
its turn in serving here, the 18th
Infantry should he glad that they
have the first opportunity and that
after four years their tour of SER
vice here will he finished for some
years.
To Exchange With Twentieth.
If the entire Thirteenth comes to
Honolulu in April. no doubt this
will be the exchange of stations
with the Twentieth, one battalion
coming to Fort Shafter and the 9TH
er two to SchoReld Barracks. This
will mean that the entire goth regi-
ment will find Its way to Fort Leav.
onworth. FROM the general remarks
ut this post, IL is no more desired
that the Twentieth go to Fort Leav-
enworth than that the Thirteenth
come here The men of Fort SHAFT
ter are anxious to get back to the
homeland, and most anywhere In
the states will do.
Another Game Of Bowling.
A large crowd of soldiers crowded
into the bowling alley at Fort Shat.
ter last Tuesday night to witness
another exciting game of bowling.
The match was between the non

very popular at this post, for the
alleys are kept constantly busy dur

The scores made are not as large
as have been made on the island,
but the excitement is great, so the
enthusiasm keeps mp.
