Another Triumphal Night for Maggie
Mitchell.

The Maggie Mitchell company presented
James B. Ruuion's drama of "Mignon' at
the Grand last night, to an audience fully as
large and fashionable as any that has marked
the present successful engagement. As the
name implies, the drama of Mignon, so far
as the element of plot is concerned,
is based on the charming and
familiar opera of that name
but in working out his idea the playwright has
drawn literally ON his fancy, the result be-
ing well rounded and interesting play As
in the opera Mignon is taken into captivity
by gypsy band, and as the incidents are
evolved one is constantly reminded OF the
lyric representation. The second
act finds her in the employ
of Wilhelm Meister, a noblemen, who
in paying his respects to Pallna, an actress.
The latter becomes jealous of Mignon on
on account of the iavors bestowed upon her
by her master, and further enemy to her
happiness appears in the person of Romaine,
a gypsy chief, who possesses the secret of
royal birth and endeavors to take her into
captivity again. In the third act she is ac-
cused of stealing the jewels of Philina and
as matters are about to become
complicated her identity is made known to
Spiratti, her father, who is disguised as an old
pilgrim. AT this juncture scheme is con
cocted by the gypsies to palm Philina off as
the daughter of Spiratti and Mignon is again
disinherted. In the final act Wilhelm un-
masks the perfdy of Philina, claims
Mignon as his bride and she
made happy by the double
JOY of regaining both her father aud her
lover. The play is replete with incidents, it
being perhaps the most pretentious drama,
considered te' sc, given by Miss Mitchell.
She enacted the title role in a charming man
ner, enduing it with the esprit and bubbl-
ing vivacity for which she is so justly cele-
brated, her impersonation being artistic and
very enjoyable.
The role of Philina, the actress, by Miss
Andrews, displayed this lady in her best
mood, and her acting was about the best
seen thus far of the engagement. Mr. Alb
bolt was strong as Wilhelm, and Mr.. Nc
Clannin appeared to good advantage as the
old Pilgrim. The gypsy chief was well taken
by Mr.. Parkhurst, and Miss Eberle was good
as Zoffi. The role of the fop by Mr.. Queen
was quite cleverly done.
The play of ''Lorle'' is billed for tonight
and an enjoyable performance is expected.

meeting, wherein Mr.. Tilden says the cleo
ton OF these two men is necessary. For the
same reason he also read from letter writ
ten by the Hon. Horatio Seymour. He closed
by an earnest appeal to his hearers to sup
port the whole local Democratic ticket.
GEN. JOHNSON
was called for and said he would occupy
only few moments. He remarked that he
saw in the papers that number of mills
had shut down in the east and great many
thousand men were thrown out OF employ
ment, and this, too, right in the time when
Blaine argues in favor Of protection. What
is the use of protection when all are thrown
out of employment! He then spoke OF local
affairs, and urged all to support Merrman,
James O'Brien and every man on the
Democratic ticket Cleveland, he said, was
sure to be elected, and if the Democracy
docs its duty we will lay the foundation for
building up the Democratic party in this
state.
DIR. STACKEMANN
then addressed the audience in German for
few moments, and was followed by Mr..
ANsEL oPPENHEDL,
who spoke in favor of low
taxation. He said that ST. Paul was
favored with very low taxes. Few cities in
the Union had as low taxes as st. Paul.
This had been accomplished by economical,
frugal, careful management by the Demo.
cratic party, which had the full and complete
management of our city affairs. Mr.. Open
helm made very short speech, but it was
full of good, sensible things. He closed by
an earnest appeal to support the Democratic
county ticket.
Mr.. George Mitsch, candidate for sheriff,
an Mr.. JAS. O'Bricn, candidate for auditor,
were brought upon the platform and intro
duced to the audience. Both were received
with great cheering
The meeting was brought to a close by Mr.
j. j. Egan who addressed a few words to
the great audience upon the Importance of
supporting the county ticket.
1t was one of the most enthusiastic meet
ings ever held in the city and cannot fail to
have its effect upon the election.

DEATH OF Mr.. B. F. BoLLEs.

The death of Mr.. Benjamin +.
Bolles has taken from our midst one
of Honolulu's respected citizens.
For nearly forty years he has been q
prominent merchant at these Islands.
He was born at New London, Con-
necticut. March p, 1914, and ut
the time of his death was in his
seventy-tirst year. On his arrival
here in 1916 he went 10 Lahaina.
Maui, where he carried on mercantile
business for sixteen years. From
Lahaina he moved to Honolulu in
1862 and established the we'll known
house OF Bolles & Co. Until the
last year or two he has been Il most
active merchant. attending with
promptness and diligence TO the
demands OF business. His habits of
early and regular attendance at his
counting room ware all example 10
others. Perhaps no one quality will
be longer remembered by his busi-
ness associates than his genial tenn
permanent and good nature.
1t has only been within the past
year or two that in6rnity and i'm
paired health gave evidence of his
age, for with his buoyant spirits,
active habits and comely person, he
appeared much younger than he
really was. He will be missed in
our business and social circles.
Many warm hearts sympathise with
the bere;.yed family.
