The figure prove It and the civilization of the white man' aewne only to hasten the end. In 1853 there were aome 70,000 pure-blood Hawaii an, and at that time the number be gan to dwindle until, neroi-ding to the census flKure of 1&00, the number of pure-Moo'J and mlxf.-d blood Hawaii an bud dropped to Z".fj?,:. Luc Ian C. Warner, an authority, aays In the Out look, that the health if the natives If far from satisfactory. The race seem to be dying out There are few large families, and many children die In In fancy. Vitality has been lowered and tuberculosis Is on the Increase. On the other hand, the number of part Ha waiian la Increasing;, and the mixed bloods are a sturdy race. There are Caucasian Hawaiian and Chinese Ha-, wallans, and they rear large families and are but little troubled by dlease. The Increase of the mixed bloods Is best shown by the school statistics. In 1902 there were 4903 full-blooded Ha waiian children to a population of 29, 787, and 2869 part Hawaiian children to a population of 7848. The propor tion of children Is twice as great among the part Hawaiian as among those of pure blood. Except on the grounds of sentiment there Is nothing to deplore In the situation. Races die because their work Is done, and are supplanted by stronger races. It is the survival of the fittest. Humanity can- Ruling of 8an Francisco Judge in Chi - . net Cass. ' ,t San Fwnclsco, Sept. t'nlted States District Judge Dehaven has de cided that on the hearing of a habeas corpus matter In which the applicant is of the Chinese race and claims to be a native American, the applicant may introduce whatever reference and ma terial evidence he may have to offer without reference to ' the testimony prvlously lntroducd by him bfore the Immigrant commissioner. The case before the court was that of Quan Kok Ulm. United States District Attorney Woodworth objected to the Introduc tion of certain evidence that had not been presented to the Chinese bureau at the time the application of Quan to land was being considered The con tention was made on the part of the government that the United States commissioner was limited to the evi dence taken before the bureau. 1 ENORMOUS BUG FIGURES. Damages Yesrly That Ar Charged to Insects. The extent of damage done by In sects which prey on the agricultural interests of the United States I but little appreciated. Twelve bugs, ac cording to reliable statistics, do an estimated damage to farm product of $363,000,000 per annum. The chinch bug beads the list, with $100,000,000 a year; grasshopper, $90,000,000; Hessian fly (a reminder of the revolution, since 01; - '1 If I. ,. , ' ; ', !" C It- V- .

The civil service commission has fur nished to the house committee on civil service reform a statement ' showing that the total number of ex-soldiers and ex-sailors of the civil war . em ployed In the executive departments at Washington is 2175 and the widows of veterans so employed 888. The Infor mation was asked in view of complaints that there are many superannuate1? clerks on the pay rolls. The largest number of veterans 641 employed in the Interior department. while the treasury department carries 553 and the war department 347. Tiiere are only 23 veterans on the navy de partment pay roll and only ? In the state department. . The ages of the old soldiers and sail ors vary from 60 to 82 years. There are 217 who are 61 years old, while those younger form the next larger class, 19" In number. Nearly two-thirds, or 1388, are from 58 to 65 years, of age. Those over 70 years of age number 226. and of this number 11 are over SO. The veteran with the longest service Is ,77 years old. . He has served 62 years. Nearly two-thirds, or 1332,. of the 2175 veterans, receive salaries ranging from $1200 to $2500 per an num.' Those receiving $840 or less number 476. The veterans and their widows constitute 10 per cent of the number of persons employed In the de partments and government printing of fice In Washington.
