The Recent Visit of MaysUiiIe's Min
3 strels TO Manchester.
Manchester Signal.

Manchester Signal.
GENTLE ROAST.
The people of Manchester are patient
and long suffering people, but they feel
they have arrived at the point where for
bearance has ceased to be virtue so far
as the shows and so-called entertainments
at the Opera-house are concerned.
The taxpayers of the town. with prob
ably few isolated exceptions. are pay
ing for the repairs recently made in and
about the Opera-house without a grunt
or a murmur, and they are proud Of the
building. They expect, however, to be
permitted to go to entertainments there
that are at least respectable.
But so far they have been woefully
disappointed. The class Of troupes that
have been engaged since the house was
reopened have been almost invariably of
very inferior order. To say the people
have been bored does not express it,
They have been humbugged, outraged.
We do not propose TO harrow up I'M
pleasant recollections by naming the diff
ferent fakes that have been perpetrated
upon a suffering people, but will have
something to say about the party of
toughs which was here Monday night un.
der the disguise of an Operate Min
strel Troupe"
This csnglomeration halls from Mays
vile, and seems to have been collected
from the toughest of toughs that could
be raked and scraped from the slums of
that town. II the combination possessed
a single qualification to entitle il to even
the liberation of a decent community, it
was not made manifest here.
Their performance was simply rotten.
Their specialists were especially bad. All
their gags and jokes had hair on them and
were bent with age. Their performance
from begining to ending was lot only
decidedly vulgar but absolutely indecent,
and the writer is about the only one who
has the nerve to acknowledge being there
and remaining through the performance.
To render our humiliation doubly effect
vile, devoid Of even any ideas of decency,
whose especial duty seemed to be to stamp,
whistle, yell, catcall, and make 1t general
ly unpleasant for the respectable part of
the audience, under the pretense of en-.
coring the miserable proceedings OF the
miserable frauds who were showing their
ignorance of common decency on the
stage, were brought along with the other
toughs. and they performed their part
much more successfully than did those on
the stage.
We do not know where the fault in this
matter lies, but 1t is evident that somebody
is TO blame. Somebody has the manage
ment Of this matter, and to whomsoever il
is we would suggest that they sell out to
somebody who can and will do better.
You cannot make it worse, so dispose of
your claim to somebody and retire to the
shades of private life.

certain make. wore out every part two or
three times, renewed them and came back
to his starting place without a break or
hurt to the machine. Now, as to the
knowledge gained from these advertise,
ments, the manufacturers of wheels know
that a succinct, sensible manner of at
tracing the gaze of the reader is the
only way by which they can dispose of
their goods. The same iule applies to
every other line of business. To be in
the push you must get before the public
Printers ink is the best vehicle, the
newspaper the fastest rider, and thus
you go quickest into the homes and
minds of purchasers.
We hope our dilletante bicyclists. es.
pecially those of the female persuasion,
will not meet with the same fate which
befell some girls in New England. They
were very bold riders, had the enduring
powers of any man, and could make a
century run with great ease, but they
grew tired" and the air is let out of their
wheels When one day riding along a
country road, home in sight and hunger
gnawing at their stomschs, they ran smuck
of herd of cattle. AT this sight their
womanly instincts assert themselves, and
the CONSERVATION, doubt, Indifference, l.
toldyou-so expression are amusing to the
extreme. Girls. be careful Of how you
boast, of how you look and where you
ride.
There is no need of anyone buying d
bicycle out of Maysville. Our own mer-
chants have a big stock, and will not only
sell you a good wheel as cheap as you Can
buy one anywhere. but will also teach
you how to ride and give additional vslu-
able information. OF course, you cannot
buy $50 wheel for $685. neither can you
away from here. If you get good artl-
Gle you must pay for ii. but do so at home
and our community will get the advantage
OF the sale.
Now, word of counsel. The ten
dency to use bicycle too much is already
visible. The trouble with any novelty is
to carry II to an extreme. The result is
one wholly deleterious to health. Exer.
else of any nature should be begun with
care and moderation. Any overtaxing
will necessarily draw from the physical
forces, and the future holds us in the
grasp of disease simply because we needed

AFTERNOON SESSION..

First section of law regarding widen
ing certain streets in the town of Hilo.
Hawaii, was read and Rep. Richards
moved for a reconsideration of section
3, for the reason that there was a dis
cussion when the bill was reached the
second time as to the width of Walnut
nui. Since then the Executive has hand
ed in a bill relative to widths of certain
streets in Honolulu. AS the Executive
has specified the width of Honolulu
streets, there is no reason why a spe-
cific width should not be set for Wal
nuinui street. l asked, after a CONVEX
sation with the Executive, that the
width be fifty-four feet, and 1 would
ask that this be so placed in the bill
Vote on reconsideration of section 8
was unanimous in favor.
Joint resolution from Senate regard
ing payment of expenses of Legislature
was read.
On motion of Rep. Kamanoha the
resolution was adopted.
The next bill for consideration was
one relating to importation of kerosene
for fuel.

introducer, is absent, l think consider
alton should be postponed.

Bill No. 9, relating to extension of
streets in Honolulu, reported back from

sion, and on motion of Rep. Kamauoha
it was read by title and referred to

Speaker desk, Rep. Kamauoha moved

tunity to do some work Carried
