AL, HALLETT'S GOOD WORK.
He Gives an Excellent Representa-
tion of MephistO.
Perhaps the Best Thing Seen Yet in the
Productions Given by the
DALEY Company.

Al. Hallett did perhaps the best
work on the Opera House stage last
night seen here since the advent of
the Daley Company. Mortimer
Snow has given Honolulu people
some excellent acting, but to Mr..
Hallett must be given the credit of
the best Interpretation of a part so
far this season.
The play was Faust" and there
was a very small audience. Mores
the pity, and the people who re-
manned away are to be condoled
with. The writer, not having a
personal acquaintance with Mr..
Hallett, does not know whether it
is nature for him to play the part
of the Devil or not, but his Me-
phisto was certainly excellent. 1t
was not strained, and nothing that
he did seemed out of place. 1t in
itself was worth the price of ad-
mission and showed more study
than that gained by few days
reading Of the lines.
Miss Dalgleish was the Marguer-
tie. Miss Dalgleish' is a good act
ress, Honolulu knows that, but her
Marguerite was somewhat disap-
pointing. She was a trife too child
ish and kittenish in the first two
acts. A sweet innocent peasant girl
is not represented by Little
Eva, and once or twice last night,
when the calcium was on her, one
almost expected the " Uncle Toms
Cabin transformation scene. But
after the second act Miss Dalgleish
played the woman and did much
better.
AS Faust, Mortimer Snow was
good, and he certainly excelled in
the love scenes.
Miss Belmour made fair Dame
Martha, and Miss Nannary was
perfect as Genevieve.
The play was somewhat marred
by Jean Weiner singing a ballad
when he should have been locked
in room.
The light effects were good, but
there was more noise caused by the
rising of the sun and moon than
absolutely necessary.

When

a man strikes a red
pepper in his soup he receives an
impression. and impressions are
lasting. How can we impress 1t
upon you that it is really your duty
to trade with US, that our prices and
service are better than elsewhere
Perhaps we can impress you In this
way: Money talks, talks cents too.
1t persuades the stubborn and con
vinces the skeptic. We know of no
such pleader as LOW PRICE
and we have tried to make its voice
heard in every nook and corner of
our store. 1t would only tire you if
we gave you a list OF the many
different articles we have just receiv-
ed per "Senta" from England, Amy
Turner" from New York, and the
"Rithet" and Australia" from San
Francisco, but we have the goods,
and if you call on Us you will get an
impression or two. First. they are
FIRST CLASS and second, that our
prices are LOW.
For that tired feeling-not Hoods
Sarsaparilla, but more exercise-a
gun, rifle, or boat if you take it
out Of doors, or dumbbells, chest
weights, etc, if indoors. Our shot
guns range from So to S65 in price,
but we find the $50 gun gives just
about the right amount of exercise
for this climate-that is we Judge so
from the way they sell. After using
one of our Winchester Military
Rifles till you can get inside an s.
inch bulls eye, s out of 10 shots, you
will find not only is the tired feeling
gone, but you have learned to be
cool and careful-things that will
serve you well in other ways than
rifle shooting.
Have you heard of the story of the
Irishman? He bought apples for one
cent and sold them for two and said
he made one per cent. profit. We do
not commit business suicide by try
ing to make the Irishman's one per
cent.
If you prefer boating and yachting
to shooting, you will find we have
most of the material needed to
either build yacht or boat or keep
it in repair when built, and you do
not have to buy any more than you
need, as we have everything handy to
retail as we'll as wholesale
BETTER fence wire is now made
than ever before and as POOR fence
wire is now made as ever has been
before. The BEST can be had right
here in Honolulu, and -yes--the
WORST. We sell the GOOD KIND.
Wait for our remarks about barbed
wire. We have plenty now, but will
soon have lot of the best in the
world and it will pay you to wait
for it.

HE OWNED THE PROPERTY.
A Man Who Thought He Had a Right
to Use His Own Premises.

On the Eva side of the Opera
House, opening into the yard of
the house formerly occupied by
Mr.. Nacayama, is a window. This
window is very convenient for those
who do not wish to pay dollar
for a seat but are content to look at
the drama standing up, where they
save hundred cents.
There is one man who has, dur
ing the last two or three perform
ances, driven Mr.. Levey nearly
wild. He has insisted on looking
through the window, which it is
necessary to keep open in order to
ventilate the house. Levey has
ordered him away several times,
but he always bobs up serenely
again, and takes in the whole show
regardless of the Tuning and fret
ting of the lessee.
Last night the climax came.
Levey was determined to drive the
onlooker away, and the latter was
so interested in the performance
that he didn't want to leave. So
Levey got policeman, and went
outside. Pointing the man out to
the officer, he told him that if he
saw him there again to arrest him
for trespassing. But the man got
even. He turned to Levey and
said, in terrible voice, Get out of
my yard"
He lived on the premises, and
thought he had right to use his
own property as he saw fit. 1t is
war to the knife between him and
Levey.
