Decentralization OF Bret Harte
Novel for Tonight.


Atlast Honolulu is to see Bret Harte's
play Sue. The play was produced
about a year ago in New York City
by Chas. Frohmans company and
many of the Honoluluites who have
heard of it's successful dramatization,
have wondered if they would ever have
the chance of seeing it. The Frawley
company has chosen it for the bill for
this evening, and Judging from the de-
mand for seats, it is sure to draw out
another big audience.
The plot tells the story of an inge-
NOUS little Western girl, who leads a
weary, dreary life on a ranch of her
selfish and hypocritical old father. He
marries her off to a man whom she
does not love, and her life is drearier
than ever. A circus acrobat who COM
mitted murder, comes to Sues farm
and begs shelter and protection from
the Sheriff, who is on his track She
hides the acrobat in the barn, and
after the Sheriff has departed, on a
false scent he comes out and makes
love to her in all the glory of his cir
Gus spangles. The scenery that will be
used for this production is the same
that was used in the original New
York production Mr.. Frawley having
purchased it.
The matinee Saturday, will be de-
voted to one of the comedy successes
of last season, ''The Great Unknown"
in which the merry pranks of the two
school girls will be heartily enjoyed
by the little ones. The bill for Satur-
day night is ''The Fatal Card
Held by the Enemy" will be the
bill for next Tuesday ewing and a
Social Highwayman" for Thursday
which is just the reverse of the original
booking.

NEW YORK, November ia Sun
correspondent in Havana cables: Since
the landing of General Blanco not a sim
gle day has passed without two OF
more engagement occurring within
sight of the capital. Havana is now in
a worse situation, owing to the repeat
ed attacks upon it's suburbs, than in
the days of General Weyler. No pro-
visions from the country enter the
city. We depend here for victuals
wholly upon the United States. The
milk we use is almost all condensed

York. The meat and vegetables come
from Florida AS a matter of course
all prices are very high, and adequate
nourishment is beyond the reach of thu

Telegraph in an editorial on the In
flammable Condition Of the Dispute
Between the United States and Spain,
says "A rash act might at any mo-
ment bring a war which could mean
only ruin for Spain"
The paper forsees that 1.-The United
States will be bound TO interfere TO
stop the conflict in Cuba" but it re-
fuses to believe that the American peo-
pie will prefer ''sanguinary and bar
rem victory over a gallant and exhaust
ed nation" to "the unfailing laurels OF
a humane mediator and Christian
peace-naker."

Morristown golf links and finally to
take stick in the game.
Here is what the football man told

all right with no more strokes than
most OF the men playing, and looked
around for the next. 1t was farther off
than the first, and the fourth and fifth
were still farther apart. I began TO
grow tired, and by the time that the
sixth hole was reached was putting

for my companions, and they were
