It has been decided upon the appear.
ance of Clara Morris at the Grand Opera
House on Thursday, March 23d, that
she appears in her magnificent portrayal
of Cam lille. Among English speaking
actresses Miss Morris has never had an
equal in this character. Her portrayal Of
the role is quite differe Mt from the gen
eral conception of the character, max
ing Camille an object of sympathy and
reverence ana teaching a lesson that is
both forcible and instructive. The
armond of j. M. Colville is a manly
impersonation and the minor roles are
all capably given at the hands Of the
excellent surrounding company. Miss
Morris is in superb health and is said

FFTO raise the Doom tiW

10 7'UtSe me DOOM tttt
crack of doom " is not exactly
our plan of electoral campaign,
but it is the plan we elect to avail
ourselves of for keeping Johann
Hoff's Malt Extract before the
public eye. The public, like the
law, has only one eye (and JUS
tice is blind), but it is sufficiently
large to comprehend within its
range what is best for its own
well-being. The public eye is
discriminating eye, and the pub
lie ear is a receptive ear, but the
public mind in the almost frantic
appeal nowadays for its suflrages
is apt to fly from one specially
10 another, like the bee from
flower to flower, and is lost in the
bewilderment Of variety. The
only way to keep the public well
informed as to its best advan-
tages is to keep those advantages
well before them, and Johann
Hoh's Malt Extract is reminder,
which we wish to be as perpetual
as time, that it is a boon which
the highest may welcome with
alacrity in all cases of faulty nu-
triton, dyspepsia, general de-
bility, etc. Insist upon the genu-
inc, which has the signature of
" "Johann Hoff " on the neck of
every bottle. Eisner & Mendel-

Whom the Great Tragedian Posted His
Own Play Bills Here.
The November Century contains some
"reminiscences of Edwin Booth, of which
the following are of local interest;
At these times he was in his very best
mood, and would tell story after story
of his life and adventures, and of his
meeting with famous men and women
all of the deepest interest and told in
the most fervid manner One story OF
his trip to the Sandwich Islands remains
with me. He had gone there in 1854 in
company with his comrade, MIR. David
=. Anderson, en- route to Australia. anu
they were to play in the Royal Hawaiian
Theater. They had hired native t.
paste up the bills announcing the per-
Torrance; this had TO be done with
preparation named "poe-poe,' made
from vegetable called "tara.tara -
which is n favorile food in Honolulu;
but the poor man was so hungry that
yielding to temptation he incontinently
ate up the paste, and to their surprise
no bills appeared. When the reason
was ascertained they feared to trust All
other native, and it was therefore agreen
that as Booth was the younger he
should act as bill-pOster, and it came to
pass that every night after the per-
Torrance Edwin went about the city
with his play-bils and bucket of paste,
and put up with his own hands the
posters announcing what the company
would play on the following night. And
he assured me that he did this honestly,
and did not eat any of the paste.

THE JAPANESE RESIDENTS

Have Not Formed a Mounted Guard or
Any other Military Company.
The following appeared in this morn
ing's Advertiser:
The japanese residents IN this city are
said to be so prepared that in the event
of any trouble arising, hundreds of
them will present themselves at the
Japanese Legation TO assist the forces
from the Naniwa in protecting the in
terests of japanese subjects here. A
mounted guard has been organized
among the resident Japanese.
The STAR has investigated the above
and states positively that there is an
error. The Japanese have not formed
any military company whatever, and do
not intend to, knowing that such pro-
cedure is unnecessary, their interests
being ably looked after and protected
by the japanese officials and the Ma
niWa.

AND GOT PROMISES FROM SAM

Some Faithful Police Omcers and some
That Are Not So FaithfuI-The
Latter Out in the Cold.

On Monday morning, when twenty
two native members of the police force
were summary dismissed because they
would not promise implicit obedience
to the orders of the Marshal, a number
of them stated that they would be back
on the force in a day or two, when Lii
uokalani was restored Whether any
promises to that effect had been pre-.
viously made them by the ex.Queen's
supporters is hard to say, but it is fact
that ten of them afterwards went to
her ex.ma jesty and endeavored TO lay
their claims before her, Their namps
are Lieutenant kealakai, officers Keklpl
Uanuano. LeialUha, Kanahi, kahima
lini, Eleneke, Kalikane, Kaulukou anu
Pomaikai. They did not succeed in
interviewing Mrs. Dominis, however,
and had to content themselves with
sam Nowlein. The latter made them
abundant promises Of reinstation ana
reward after the restoration, which, he
said, was only matter of a few day 3 AT
most, and the treacherous officials with
drew in jubilant frame of mind, but h
yet they are out of a job and their pros
poets are certainly not as good as San
Nowlein led them to believe.
AS the STAR published the list oil
