Mr.. OLE OLSON TONIGHT
a CLEVER COMEDY DRAMA is TO
BE PRESENTED.
Robert l.. Scott in the Leading Role
\ Capable Home Company Support
Commended

This is the night for the presenta-
ton of "Olc Olson" by Bob Scott and
his company of amateur thespians.
Much has been said of the play and
players. "Ole Olson" is new to Homo
lulu. 1t is "a new style of drama. in
vading an uneXplored field. BY many
critics il is pronounced novel, though
it reflects most strongly human in
where the Norwegian character is so
familiar, Ole himself cannot but
please.
Mrs. Wilson. Mr. Morris and Mr..
Ramsey are well known. All have
leading parts. Mrs. Wilson will be
strong support and, as on previous oc-
casons. will win many of the laurels
of the performance. 1t will be worth
about a dollar to hear Ramsey's well
coming address, clad in Prince Al
bert suit imported direct from Lon
don-not the address but Ramsey.
Mrs. Lawrence, Mr.. Bickerton and
others will appear in the support.
When Bob Scott was touring the
West a few years ago with "Ole Olson"
he received many complimentary no.
tices from the newspapers. At that
time the Utah Standard said:
"A large and fashionable audience
greeted that great Swedish dialect
actor, Il. l.. Scott, in the latest and
at the Grand last night. Ripple after
ripple of merriment and fun swept
over the house as "Ole" did something
out of the ordinary or get off some
quaint saying. And it is only a won
der that long before this some other
company has not taken up a similar
play. The field is large, and at pres
ent almost unoccupied, although it is
understood that hearing of the re-
markable success which has attended
this play, all comedians are studying
up the quaint Swedish dialect And
surely if they meet as great a success
of it as has Mr.. Scott, they may well
feel proud. From rise to fall of cur
tain the audience was kept in con-
tinual roar Il. l.. Scott is certainly a
genius, and kept the audience in a
hearty laugh. His presentation of the
green, but noble hearted Swede was
perfect"

CARRYING LEPERS.

In an evening paper, or so-called
paper, the statement appears that
among the Halls passengers this
morning from Hawaii was crazy
Chinaman consigned to the Insane
Asylum, and five lepers for the Receiv-
ing Station at Kalihi." This state
ment is entirely Incorrect According
to the laws of the Hawaiian Republic
vessels over certain tonnage are not
allowed to carry lepers, and are sub
iect to heavy fine for an infringe
ment of that law. The Hall and Mi
named in the act and the company
has never at any time allowed lepers
to be carried on those steamers.

idea is that the beneficial effects of the
water lie in the heat and the acid
property, together with the frequency
of the baths, which are taken by
strong patients four or five times
day. If the water can be successfully
reproduced experiments will be made
with skin diseases and the baths may
be introduced at Kalihi.

.A PIONEER JUDGE DEAD
SUDDEN DEMISE OF AN AGED AND
ESTEEMED JURIST.
Judge S. L. Austin Passes Away "in
Harness"-Was Travelling Life
and Services

Circuit Judge S. l.. Austin of Hawaii
died suddenly at the residence of
Frank Spencer at Waimea, Hawaii,
about II o'clock Friday morning, cf
a stroke of apopleNy.
He was travelling leisurely to the
Kau term of the Circuit Court, of
which he was the presiding judge,
which opens next Wednesday morn
ing. Four days had been spent at
Waimea. Thursday night the jurist
was feeling quite unwell and retired
early. He succumbed to the fatal
stroke next morning. His daughter,
Miss Hattie Austin, who had accom-
panied him from Hilo, was the only
member of the family present at the
time.
The sad news was telephoned all
over the island. Tax Assessor II. c.
Austin, a son, Immediately set ont for
Waimea and doubtless arrived there
yesterday afternoon. Sheriff Hitch
cock commissioned Deputy Sheriff
Yates of Kau by telephone to proceed
at once to Honolulu with the informa-
ton. The latter caught the Ke Au
Hou and arrived this morning. He at
once communicated the intelligence to
the Chief Justice and the Attorney
General. One of the judges of the
Circuit Court here will proceed next
Tuesday to Kohala to sit at the term
at that place. Judge Carter will prob
ably go.
Arrangements for the funeral had
not been completed when the Ke Au
Hou left Hawaii. 1t was settled, how
ever, that it should take place at Hilo
this afternoon. The Kinau had been
communicated with and was to call
for the remains this morning.
Judge Austin was native. of Buff
falo, New York. He was II years of
age and had been in this country for
ty-four years. In 1852 he arrived in
Hilo and lived there ever since. Dur
ing his long residence he was most
useful figure in the upbuilding of his
community, in business, political and
social life.
Upon his arrival in Hilo he first as
sociated himself with the business
house of Benjamin Ditman, then the
largest on Hawaii, in the capacity of
clerk. While there he pursued his
study of law. In the early sixties he
was appointed district magistrate
and a few years later became Circuit
judge. This Office he has held ever
since. Several times of late it has
been rumored that he would retire on
account of advanced age, but, being a
man of wonderful energy and perse-
verance he held on to die in harness.
Judge Austin leaves wife, six
children and several grandchildren to
mourn his loss. Frank, Wallace, John
and Ephraim are residing in Califor-
MIA; Herbert C. is tax assessor of Ha-
wall anu llNtS at IlllO, MISS I1dIIle. Ile
only daughter, was with her father,
as before stated, at the time of his
demise. Mrs. Austin is at present Wis
iting her sons in California. She was
expected to arrive by the Australia,
but did not. 1t is likely she will
reach Honolulu by the steamer next
Tuesday; if not she will receive the
first sad news by the mail which goes
forward today. Judge Austin was an
uncle of Mrs. f. o. White, being a
brother of Jonathan Austin, formerly
of Honolulu.
