An Enjoyable Evening.

A large audience hailed Miss Adair
and her company at the drill shed
last Thursday evening. Every man,
woman and child present went home
feeling delighted and satisfied over
the performance.
Miss Adair is OF course the Star Of
the Stars.
Yesterday morning, prominent
gentleman who hardly ever goes out
of an evening telephoned to us and
asked at what time he could see Adair
dancing. His time forbade him to
spend whole evening at the drill
shed but he wanted at all hazards to
see Adair
We don't blame our friend
"See Adair and die may be suit
able motto. AT the same time we
prefer to see the graceful dancer and
very muchly to live.
The exquisite dancing seen the
first night was repeated Thursday
evening and the audience was simply
frantic. As soubrette Miss Adair
showed not alone great talent but
refinement combined NTH chic, rare.
ly seen.
Miss Adair was ably sustained by
the other members of her company.
Mr.. Vanderlip is an all-round
clever artist and gets in touch with
his audience as soon as he appears
on the stage.
Hugh Emmett is one of the clever
est artists we have seen and he
made a decided hit among his
Honolulu audience. His playing of
the viola deserves special mention.
1t showed that the artist is not
alone star in the funny" business
but also possesses sterling and ad-
mirable talents in the musical line.
Miss Jardyne sang very clever
medley Of German cafe chantant
songs and tickled our Dutch friends
immensely. They haven't heard
"Ach Du lisber Augustin, allies list
Dein" for some years and the little
Miss made them homesick.
If we may suggest change to
the management of the perform
ances, and to Miss Adair, we would
advise them to eliminate the poll
tical pictures and references in Miss
Adair's dancing. Honolulu at pre-
sent wants to forget politics and
eventual divisions in the audience
caused by the rolling-forth Of Cleve
land, Mckinley, Dole's and other
pictures are, to say the least, bad
form.
Roses, pansies, fire and serpents
are we'll enough. Political display
will only antagonize the majority.
If the pictures must be produced,
we suggest that the collection be
supplemented by pictures of Kaiu-
lani and Bryan.
The next performance will be
given tonight when Miss Adair will
meet crowded house. Tickets are
now being rapidly sold at Wall,
Nichols & Co.'s store.

waived an examination Judge Miller, how

Charles w. Bubb, the police think, was
well planned and executed, but being nov

did not know how to cover their tracks.
In the first place the cane belonging to
Monroe D. Shanks, or Shenk, alias Good

one who wore the false beard and whiskers
in his effort to present the appearance of

which was so easily idaatified, was fatal

rage and has ordered the unfeeling officer
who made the arrest to be brought before
him.
Havanas financial circles are agitated
over the intima:ion that Spain will again
flood the country with paper money. A To-
cal paper says: Spain never redeemed in
gold or silver, as she agreed to, the paper
currency issued during the last war, and
we have no reason to believe that she
would carry out her pledges on another
occasion. We all remember how the gov
eminent and people agreed to burn all the
paper money (which became worth three
cents on the dollar), and that in future
Spain would send nothing but gold or silver
