A BACHELOR MAID.

Once there lived bachelor maiden,
Years and years ago ~,
And her mind witll truth was laden,
But her heart was cold az snow.
For she thought, with good old Plato,
She could live alone,
So she smiled on many suitor,
But her heart was hard as stone.
Came a bachelor man a-Suing
For her friendship true.
This, alas, was her undoing,
As it might have been with you.
For her friendship still he sued her
Such simple thing
Till before she knew he wooed her,
Wooed her with friendship ring.
Now, although she's fond Of Plato,
Her cold hearts grown warm,
And her theories of living
Have imbibed a wondrous charm,
For she says: '''Tis human nature,
Spite of Plato's pen.
Men were made for loving women,
Women made for loving men,"

When the Music Hall was an
nounced as completed, the pleasure
loving public of this city was very
much pleased at the thought that the
old tumble-doWn theatre which used
to stand on the ground now occupied
by the Masonic Temple, was to be
succeeded by such substantial build
ing.
The first performance given in the
new theatre was play called ttMarble
Heart" melodrama of the Adelphi
type, presented by the California
Theatre Company under the manage
ment of G.. B. Wells.
This company scored great success
and played to good houses until the
smallpox struck the city. From that
time the audiences dwindled, and in
short period the Government gave the
order to have the theatre closed.
1t will be remembered by those that
were here at the time, that the Wells
Company gave the first performance
for the benefit of the building fund of
the new theatre and gave the gross
receipts of $S12 to those in charge,
paying their own expenses.
The first performance after the
smallpox epidemic was the opera
"Pinafore," given by the Amateur
Musical Society of this city; A. T. At
kinson being the principal worker in
the getting up of the play.
When the Music Hall was conduct
ed as a stock company Judge r. F.
Bickerton, Godfrey Brown, J. F.
Brown and DR.. McWayne had charge
of its affairs and took great interest In
providing amusements. The father
of the Wall boys was architect of the
building.
Honolulu people regret very much
that the only theatre in the city is no
more. Much more do they regret it
on account of the fact that iII-luck be-
fell the first owners of the Music Hall,
and further on account of the fact that
w. G.. Irwin says, ''I have had enough
of opera houses"
The origin of the fire is unknown.

from his home to the police station
for the purpose of reporting for duty,
noticed cloud of smoke issuing from
the tower of the Music Hall as he was
nearing that building. He put spurs
to his horse and made for the engine
house of Company No. 1. Finding
that this company had gone out for
practice with the engine, he tele-
phoned to No. 2, which responded inn
mediately to the call, arriving on the
scene about 7:25 o'clock. The other
companies arrived soon after.
Before the building was entered by
the firemen, smoke was issuing from
every door and window, showing that
the fire had started long time before
the discovery by Wichart. AS soon
as the windows and doors were brok-
en- open, great tongues of fire leaped
forth, and for moment drove the
men back. Rallying, the gallant
firemen rushed into the auditorium
and played a stream of water upon
the rows of seats and the stage.
Everything seemed to take fire at
once. The front, back and sides of the
building were in flames at one time,
necessitating streams of water from
all sides.
The brightest blaze was seen when
the drop curtain and the scenery took
fire. Five minutes seemed all that
was necessary to consume the whole
stage with its effects.
In short time it was evident to
every one that nothing could be done
to save the building. Had the force
of the streams directed on the fire
at the start been good, there might
have been some chance; but even
then it is doubtful, for the fire had
gained such good headway, and the
draught was stubborn enemy TO cope
with in such all open building.
The attention of the firemen was
directed to the prevention of any
spreading of the fire, to buildings in
the vicinity. The only house that
seemed in immediate danger of catch
ing fire was the old Gibson residence.
Several sparks fell Oh the roof and be-
gan to burn the shingles, but broom
brigade, headed by Will Chamberlain,
of the ADVERTISER office, climbed up
and removed the dsnger.
While the men in the front hall
were playing a stream Of water into
the auditorium large patch of plaster
fell from the roof, nearly striking one
or two of them.
Rumors were abroad Of q gasoline
tank in the front part of the tu;lding.
Guards were placed at the corners TO
warn the crowd away. 1t wa| soon
learned that there was no danger from
the tank, and the crowd proceeded to
get nearer.
At about S o'clock the roof fell in
completely, and little while after
that there was nothing to be seen OF
the woodwork.

the fire that they had the best streams

In little over an hour the fire was
under control, and one engine was left
to look after the smouldering remains.

burning building were lined with
spectators anxious to catch glimpse

The Music Hall, completed in 1881,
with E. B. Thomas In charge OF both
the stone and wood work, was owned
by q stock company called the Music
Hall Association, of which the late S.
G. Wilder, Of this city, was president.
It soon became well-known fact
that the owners Of the building were
getting deeper and deeper into debt
every day, and soon it was learned
that the Music Hall was mortgaged to
c. r. Bishop & Co; Later, the mort
gage was assigned to III. A. Wide
mann, who, on July %, 1888, had it
foreclosed and the building sold at
public auction to VIM. @. Irwin and
John D. Spreckels for the sum Of
$21, 500.

A VERY FREAKISH VOL cANO
Like a Chimney Lifted From the
Bottom of the Sea
How Old Bogosiof Has Astonishad the
FARMERS and the Inhabitants Of
the Aleutlan Islands

Bogoslof Island in the Aleutian chain
is out of the wa~ of vessels cruising in
northwestern waters. Few ships think
it worth while to visit the neighborhood,
and only an occasional revenue cutter
goes out of its way to observe the latest
doings of this freak among volcanoes.
1t was long known only as a little rock
in the Aleutian chain about one hundred
miles west of Unalaska. 1t appears to
be a chimney which volcanic vent at
the bottom of the sea has lifted above
the waters, and 1T has chiefly been noted
for gentle and persistent smoking. Then
great submarine eruption thrust new
Bogoslof 600 feet into the air. 1t was
over half mile from the old one, and,
during the weeks it was building above
the sea, ashes from its fiery crater were
sifted for hundreds of square miles
around. The following year there was
fresh news to report. Across the stretch
of water between New and Old Bogoslof
a narrow isthmus connecting them came
into view, and clouds of steam and smoke
were pouring from numerous assures in
the sides of the new volcano; while Old
Bogoslof, astonished by the strange hap
penings in its neighborhood, had lapsed
into inactivity.
Every succeeding visit to the new volca-
no has revealed fresh changes. The
latest report by Captain Tanner, just pub
lished at Washington, says the volcano
has lost a hundred feet in height. Very
likely the upper part of the rock has been
knocked off in some unusual outburst.
The sthmus has entirely disappeared,
but a split from the mountain now juts
into the sea several hundred feet to the
east and west. Vessels can sail between the
volcanoes, where year ago land bridge
barred the way. The outline of the new
volcano has also changed, and smoke and
DUST are still issuing from the sides and
best to change the topography Of our Pa
citic domain. 1t is interesting to hear OF
the changes that occur but it is not
nice place to linger at. Nobody knows
when the unexpected may happen, and
it is better to be out of range when it
comes.
