The Roanoke times. (Roanoke, Va.) 1897-1977, 1897-05-26

Mckinley will be generally justified. In
view Of the fact that Captain Romeyn
would retire on the first Of June by the
operation of the law, the President be-
lieves that the ends of justice will be Sc
cured by giving the captain Il evere rep
rimanG. The parties were stationed at
Atlanta, Ga, and Captain Romeyn had
been talking too freely about Mrs.
O'Brien. When her husband one even.
ing otter dress parade protested against
the treatment his wife and himself had
received from Captain Romeyn the latter
struck him in the face This was fol.
lowed by very sensational trial, in
which it was developed that u gay young
lieutenant who was engaged to be mar
ried to Captain Romcyn's daughter had
been taking long bicycle rides with Mrs
O'Brien. This led to the young mans
dismissal from the Romeyn headquarters
and to entirely too much talk on the part
of the young lady's papa. The devotion
of father and daughter furnished AFFECT
ing incidents to the trial, but it was plain
to all appropriated observers that the
grizzly old captaic was a better comman-
der of men than his own temper. The
case, however, excited much sympathy
for Captain Romeyn and, as the sentence
of the court martial under the circum-
stances seemed unnecessarily harsh, the
action Of the President cannot but be re.
garded as a fitting finale to this much
written up and much talked n bout case.

woman and child can find something
which they need, and 81 now will

FINE LUAU.
To Be Given at the Maternity

To Be Given at the Maternity
Home June ;.
The trustees of the Kapiolani Ma
ternity Home, on Beretania street,
will give a Iuau on Saturday, June 5,
1897. for the purpose of raising funds
for the carrying on of that institution
and the hearty support of the public
should be given, as the cause is GER
tainly a most worthy one.
A meeting of the trustees was held
yesterday for the purpose of making
arrangements for the proposed luau,
and of talking over matters in connec-
ton Herewith. 1t was decided that the
Iuau should be given on the Maternity
Home grounds; that Mrs. F. w. Mac
farlane. the treasurer, should have the
immediate supervision of the whole
thing; that the other ladies of the
Board of Trustees should preside over
the various tables.
The grounds will be prettily decorat-
ed for the occasion, and suitable music
will be provided. There will be six
native Hawaiian tables and one for
eign, as we'll as a candy, an ice cream,
a coffee, a soda-water and lemonade,
and flower table. Tickets have been
placed in the hands of the various trus-
tees.
At the meeting yesterday, an effort
was made to postpone the date Of the
luau, on account of various attractions,
but this was found impossible, on ac-
count Of the fact that much of the ma
terial for the luau has already arrived
from the other Islands
Other engagements on Saturday,
June 5th, viii hardly interfere with
people who wish to attend the Ma
ternity Home luau, as it will begin
soon after u m. and will last until
sunset. The ladies intend to make
great success of the affair, and for

strangers in the city who wish to see
a genuine native Hawaiian feast, the
opportunity Will be a most excellent
one
AS stated above, there will be six
Hawaiian tables, presided over by the
Queen Dowager Kapiolani, Mrs. a.
DreieT, Mrs. c. A. Brown, Mrs Noonan,
Miss Lucy Peabody and Mrs. Junius
kaae. Mrs. S. c. Allen and Mrs. A.

1.-THE BELLE or NEW-YORK."

The lively tunes and incidents Of THE Belle OF
New-York" kept the audience at the Casino amused
last night for nearly four hours THE Belle OF
New-York" is the latest Of the local stage pieces
In the series brought forward at this house I'M
classified as to It's character. The programme calls
II musical comedy. II Is musical. but 1t Is not
a comedy Neither is It farce nor burlesque nor
an EXTRAVAGANZA Least Of all is 1t an operetta
But the audience enjoyed It, and did not trouble
itself about designations.
This sort of entertainment does not invite crit!.
cism. and the less criticism has 70 do with IT, as
a general thing, the better criticism will preserve
its dignity. The book certainly does not inspire
warm enthusiasm. and that leaves something IA
be wished But It is not unbearably stupid. and
that Is a comfort. The music, composed by Gus
tave Kerker has the vigorous movement, accom-
plished by much brass. which Is TO be depended
upon in his compositions 1t has a full. clear ring
and II carries the piece swingingly along. Aside
from the music the enjoyment OF the piece de-
ponds largely on individual effort among the act
ors Several Of these are familiar and IA
vori;es. Miss Edna May made a prompt and good
impression Sho had the title part. that OF Sal
