"a Divorce Cure" which will be seen
at the Grand Opera House on next
Tuesday and Wednesday evenings is the
work OF Harry st. Maur, who drama
tized IL from his own adoption from a
story Of the original French of Sardou,
called "An Averted Divorce" =" The New
York critics pronounce it one Of the
most pungently humorous productions
given to the comedy stage in many
years. The new play is a charmingly
written and ingeniously constructed so
ciety comedy, possessing a number OF
delightful qualities. The lines abound
in wit and spontaneous repartee. The
situations are invariably fel.citous
while the climaxes are developed in a
manner so natural shat one is actually
startled by the strength of the scene
from which each succeeding curtain
falls until the denOuement. No play
goer who has proper appreciation ol
the good things Of the drama can af
ford to miss seeing "A Divorce Cure.
Margaret May. talented and beautiful
actress. who has won a lavish shower
of new laurels from the intelligent crit
les, will play the leading role, and he

GREAT SCENIC PRODUCTION.

Moller & Fcss.er's great scenic pro-
duction, THE City OF New York" p"
which comes to the Grand Opera House
Monday night, is full OF startling and
dramatic situations which have rarely, if
ever, been equaled. The play is in four
acts, the interest beginning at the open
ing act and continuing without cessa-
ton to the fall of the curtain in the last
act. Mr. Fessler, the author, has sur
rounded himself with one OF the most
competent companies now on the road
among others Porter J. White who has
been seen during the past five years as
Mephisto in Morrison's great produc-
tion of Faust" will be seen in one of
the leading roles. Miss olga Verne,
who will he remembered as the Mar
guerite with Mr. Morrison. and Miss
Pauline Train, principal soubrette in
"Little Christopher" Company, and
Miss Grace Taylor, for many years with
Clara Morris and Richard Mansfield,
are members of this superb company.
The scenery for this clever production
has been especially painted at great
cost. The mechanical effects are new
and novel. and the very best that
money and brains can procure. The
play abounds in thrilling situations
and intense heart interest. The wreck
OF the Mogul engine, which will be seen
crashing through a trestle, and the
slide for life of the hero down the old
wood fiume in the mountains are so in
tensely realistic and thrilling that once
seen are not likely ever to be forgotten.
Everything pertaining to this produc-
tion is first-class in every respect, re-
curing carload OF scenery and me-
chanical effects for its proper presenta-
ton.

SOME LOCAL MEN EXPECTED TO
TAKE PART IN THE CAMPAIGN.
Justice, the local organ of the Single
Takers, has this to say about the death
of Henry George:
"A number of Single Takers of thi
city had arranged to leave for New Yorl
Friday afternoon, to take part in the
campaign Friday and Saturday even
ings. Among others who were going
were A. r. Saylor publisher, and A. c
Pleydell. editor of Justice; Henry Sar
ing, Willard S. Meredith and John Nc
Cullough.
"The death of Henry George was a
great shock to local Single Takers, and
was a topic of general conversation
throughout the city, where Henry
George was known not only through
the Single Tax work, but by his two
visits and speeches here some eighteen
months ago.
Among the first who went to Nj
Georges apartments, in New York, was
W. II. Booz of Harrington, one OF the
leaders of the Single Tax party in this
state. He was an intimate friend OF
Mr.. George, and had gone to New Yorl
to aid him in his political work.
John s. Crosby, who presented to hin
the nomination of the Manhattan Sin
gle Tax Club, said after that meeting
which was one of the largest and mos
enthusiastic ever held in that city:
II wonder what Mr. George coul,
have meant when he said he would ac
cept the nomination even if he died TO
it? There was such a sadness in hi
tones when he said IT, l felt just a
though he thought he could not liv'
through the campaign"

STORY OF AN OLD BURGLARY
REVIVED.
Safe That Was Once Robbed of $500
in Gold Coin-At Custom House Sale
Yesterday Pick Up a Curio.

The Portuguese Mutual Benefit So
citey of Honolulu had carried to its
meeting hall today a large iron safe
which has n romance connected with
il that is very interesting indeed. The
safe was purchased by the President
of the society at an auction sale at
Morgan's for the small sum of $35.
There was no demand for the safe and
the auctioneer congratulated himself
upon securing the sum he did.
The safe was in the government SER
vice in the fifties during the reign of
Kamehameha the Fourth. 1t was
used to store the Custom House reve-
uues and has held many thousands of
dollars within it's doors. On the eve
ming of March 2s, 1858, burglars en-
tered the old Custom House, where
the safe was stationed, and took from
the drawers some SS573, nearly all of
which was offered for any informa-
ton that would lead to the detection
of the guilty persons. They have
never been discovered.
Warren w. Goodale, who died re-
Gently in Honolulu, while on his way
from p. c. Jones' residence to board
a Nuuanu street car, was Collector
General of Customs at the time. He
was obliged to make good the loss to
the Kingdom.
A good many of the old-timers re-
member the incident quite distictly,
but they have forgotten the details.
Professor Alexander's history gives
very little information regarding the
robbery. One pioneer said today that
the thief had taken the key from Mr..
Goodale's trousers while he was
sleeping, stolen the. money, and then
returned the key.
The safe is large, bulky affair of
the plainest design. When it was in
the service of the Kingdom combi-
nation key was all that was required
to open it. After the robbery bar
and bolt was added, which improve
ment is on the safe to this day.
n safe of somewhat similar con-
struction is in use at the Board of Ed
ucation, but money is not kept in it.

MAUNA LOA ARRIVES.
Pleasant and Speedy Round Trip.

The Mauna Loa arrived from Ha-
waii and Maui ports soon after noon,
after the smoothest and pleasantest
voyage of the year. The new thrust
bearing, designed and adjusted by
Chief Engineer Keech when she was
last in port, has proved success in
every way. The engines can now be
opened out to their best speed, and
on the voyage just completed the big
steamer made many record runs be-
tween ports. Had It not been for an
additional call or two, the prospects
are that the Mauna Loa would have
reached the home port this morning
in record time.
The cargo of the Mauna Loa was:
5,s71 bags of sugar, n bags of ava,
S3 bags of coffee, 2s head of cattle and
0 bundles of hides. Following is list
of her passengers:
A. NJ. Erskine, DR.. A. McWayne, c.

OUTCOME OF MUTINY on THE
MOKOLII.
Five of the Crew Steadfastly Refuse
to Return to Work Under Mate
Kapala.

Six of the native sailors on the
steamer Mokolii, who refused duty
yesterday morning, were arrested last
night on charges of violating the la
Dor contract law. This morning five
of them, who refused to return to the
vessel, were committed to Jail at hard
labor by Police Judge De Ia Vergnc
until they are willing to resume their
work on the steamer and fulfill their
contract. The sixth admitted that he
was in the wrong and was permitted
to return to the vessel.
When placed on the witness stand
this morning, the sailors, each in
turn, complained that they did not
like the mate of the Mokolii, Kapala.
Some of them refused to give any
reason, while others said they had
been ill-treated by Kapala. When
when they were ill-treated the sail
ors refused to talk. They admitted to
the president of the company they
had said nothing of ill-treatment.
Judge De la Vergne found no merit
in the complaint of the sailors. He
found them all guilty of having vio-
lated the contract labor law, and gave
each the alternative of returning to
the vessel or remaining in Jail. at
hard labor, until they were willing to
return to their position. One after an
other, five of the burly fellows. re-
piled that they would never return to
the Mokolii while Mate Kapala was in
her. All were then committed.
So far as the Investigations of the
steamship company go, the grievance
of the sailors seems to have been
purely imaginary, as there has never
been any trouble aboard between the
mate and the men. Those who read
between the lines believe that there
was merely conspiracy. between the
sailors to GUST the mate and secure
his place for one of their own number
that they might have an easier time.
