tainment: One OF the low comedy
characters Is a pseudo-doctor, possessing
certain pills which are supposed to have
the effect of completely transforming
the persons who swallow them. Most
Of the leading performers take the pills,

or dance.
A remarkable story is now being told
In theatrical circles about Mrs. Patrick
Campbell. The rehearsals of THE Mas
~queraders" were Of a somewhat stormy
character, and many sharp passages at
arms, 1t Is said, occurred between Mrs.
Campbell and George Alexander. Now,
In the first number of the new quarterly
the Yellow Book-there is a fantastic
outline picture by Aubrey Beardsley,
which Is n portrait of Mrs. Campbell in
THE Second Mrs. Tanquery." 1t is rela-
ted that Mrs. Campbell bought as many
copies of the Yellow Book as there were
members of the st. James company,
and after cutting out all the illustrations
but that Of herself. wrote under the por-
trait the words: This is the actress
who won't %rehearse." She then stood

one of the rehearsals, and gave each OF
the actors and actresses n copy of the
mutilated magazine as he or she left
the theatre.
Among the forthcoming matinees
tl'> most interesting Is undoubtedly that
to be given by Miss Olga Brandon. at
the Prince of Wales's. on the 22d inst.
1t is long since Miss Brandon has been
seen In a part worthy of her. The play
she has selected for what Is practically
her temperance on the stage. is by
Henry Hoyt. the Australian dramatist.
The title has not yet been fixed, but
will probably be "Corissande." Miss
Brandon will play Corissande (the
Marquise de Vilefort), and the other
principal parts will be in the hands OF
Messrs. Charles Cheney and Abindon
and Miss Agnes Thomas. The light
comedy Of the play is supplied by Miss
Thomas in the role Of Lady Tawke, an
American widow.
Miss Brandon will probably appear as
the heroine In the Autumn drama at
Drury Lane.

was a girl who knew a priceless Jewel
when she saw 1t. He admired her
taste, and smiled on her ~approvingly.
She smiled back. even more sweetly,
and, in little ways entirely original and
clever, she tried to lead him on. For
instance. she walked up and down her
porch on nice starry nights. and
coughed now and then. a gentle little
cough. She would go to the suffers
for crewels and ribbons at the hour
when Patten was likely to be there for
his mail. Her horse never would stand
still at the mounting-block. the exas-
perating animal! II the young officer
were In sight. All these little tendrils
reaching out are such. W. all know, as
the world has never known before.
But there was n good deal OF the ma
ture OF the Government mule about Pat
ten. The instant he could see that some
one was attempting to lead him he would
refuse to advance a step; and he did see,
despite Bertha's wholly original methods
OF procedure. So he stood still, and the
poor girl tugged and pulled, but Patten
refused to move ever so little. She really
became quite desperate and struck him
In the face, metaphoricallly, with some
remarks that were meant to be scornful
and sarcastic. or course, II she had
known anything about mules she would
have been aware that such treatment
only makes them jump back. But she
was of the infantry, and can be excused
for not knowing anything about live
stock. Experience taught her, though,

experiment worked like a charm. Pat
ten began to fear thai he was losing the
alteration, and advanced n few steps.
Bertha received his o%vertures with de-
light, and Patten was wise enough to
keep her a little delighted all the time.
He did not think. now. that he was
really in love. on the contrary, he was
sure that his first love was yet to come;
but Bertha was a pastime. at any rate,
Things progressed very nicely now.
Patten and Miss Ruggles took frequent
horseback rides, and often did not get
home until after dark, The first time
this happened. Bertha approached her
mammals presence with fear and trem-
bling: she did not know what her
mother would say, but she was sure OF
n good berating from a none too gentle
tongue. Fancy, then, her surprise and
delight at being met with "A sweet go
and eat your dinner, dear; I've had IT
kept warm" Al the monthly hop Pat
ten danced most OF the time with Ber-
tina, and forgot to complain OF the
scratches she made on his beautiful
pumps. Every one was sure they were
engaged; only Miss Ruggles and her
mother were the least bit uneasy.
II II happened, as II sometimes did,
thai a day passed without Bertha's
spending several hours in the lieuten-
ants society, home was made generally
uncomfortable for her, for at such times
Mrs. Ruggles's temper returned TO It's

KAPIOLANIS WIN.
They Best Their MOlOkai Rivals by
Over Five Hundred Feet.

The fve-oared whaleboat race
between the KapioIani and Kauna-
kakai crews was won by the
Honolulu boys. The race took
place at Kaunakakai at 4 o'clock
Saturday afternoon, and the course
was two miles with turn. The
Molokai boat took the lead for six
hundred feet, but after that the
Kapiolanis shot ahead and kept
their lead until arriving at the
winning post, the Molokai crew
being nearly five hundred feet in
the rear. The time was twenty
eight minutes.
The race was witnessed by a
large gathering, many people from
adjoining districts being present.
Great enthusiasm prevailed for
several minutes when the home
boat took the lead. The winning
crew received a purse of 800. j.
Nakaleka, Jr., was starter, and
John Mahuka acted as judge.

WILL HOLD A VOTE.
The New Member Of the Advisory
Council to be Balloted For.

A meeting of the officers of the
Annexation Club was held Satur-
day night, at which some rather
important business was transacted.
The main question before the meet
ing. was the calling of a mass
meeting for the purpose of placing
in nomination a candidate for the
vacancy in the Councils. The
meeting was set for this even
ing, at the drill shed on Hotel
street. The meeting will be solely
for the purpose of appointing men
who shall afterwards be voted
upon by the club. The balloting
will commence Wednesday even
ing, and will be carried on every
evening during the week. The
successful candidate will have the
endorsement of the club. Only
members of the club will be eligi-
BILE for candidacy.
The election, which will open
Wednesday evening, will be con-
Quoted on strict political lines. A
ballot will be prepared with the
names of candidates printed upon
it, and to vote for man, cross
should be placed opposite his
name. 1t is expected that large
vote will be polled.
Every evening except Saturday,
the polls will be open from 5 until
9 o'clock. Saturday, the voting
will end at 7 80, to allow time to
count the votes.
w. G. Smith moved that the
secretary be instructed to write 10
the Executive and Advisory Coun-
ellis, stating that Mr.. Hatch was
the only choice of the club for the
position. Carried.
Mr.. Hatch, who was in the chair,
stated that he had been spoken of
for the position of Minister of For
eign Affairs, and, although the |
duties of the office would interfere |
with his business, yet he would |
accept it, if the club had no other
candidate.

PELE AROUSED.
Prospects of a Lively Time at the
Volcano,

Advices from the island of Ha-
waii indicate that the volcano is
likely to furnish a speedy outbreak.
1t is increasingly active, ard the
outlines of the lake are rapidly
changing. For the past two years
there has been a point from which
the travellers have overlooked the
activities of the lake itself. A
wall was built here which afforded
shelter from the wind, and lately a
hut was put up and even provided
with a telephone connection, so
that travellers might spend the en-
tire night in the crater watching
the play of the fountains if they
felt so disposed. The fires have
now risen and the walls fallen in
SO that this spot is now entirely
effaced.
Advices from Kau state that the
district was lately visited by quite
vigorous earthquake, which
shook things up generally and dis
turbed some fences.
The volcano eruptions on Ha-
waii have taken place pretty regu-
larly at intervals of about eight
wears, and it is now about time to
expect another.

SHE MEANT 1T.
Deeapitation Is What She Was
After.

The adherents of the ex-queen,
no doubt being inspired from the
highest quarter, have attempted
upon divers occasions to make it
appear that she did not mean the
cutting off of heads when she
talked about decapitation. What
she meant was simply punish
ment.
One of the native papers, pub
lished last December, has IN
luckily given this Interpretation
away. 1t discourses on decapita-
ton, recommends it as the best
remedy for political ailments, and
in order to prepare the minds of
its Hawaiian readers for this man.
ner Of disposing of enemies, it gives
a graphic and tempting account of
the various methods by which heads
have been chopped off in the past.
In order to intimidate Hawaiians
who were supporters of the Pro-
visional Government, the ADvER-
TIsER is informed that they were
pursued on the streets and else
where with limitations that their
heads would drop into the basket
