ORPHEUM THEATER

The Orpheum had packed house
Saturday night. In fact there was
an overflow of perhaps half hundred
people.
The new program proved a "taker."
From about the middle on to the end
it was roaring funny. Miss Rosa was
recalled four times in her program of
vocal specialties. Among the selec-
tions was "My Honolulu Belle" and a
native air. The closing sketch, the
Sullivan fight, was simply immense
and brought down the house.
There was quite a good sized audi
ence for the matinee performance i'm
the afternoon. At the usual hour this
evening the program of Saturday ev-
ening will be repeated.

OLD WOMAN DISAPPEARS.
Mrs. McFarlane Lost in the Forests OF
Kaumanu.

\ distressing tale comes from Hilo
of the loss of an aged woman in the
forests of Kaumanu. She is Mrs. Nc
Farlane, mother of the two men by
that name who took up lots there two
years ago. 1t appears that on Monday
morning last she left the house OF one
of her sons to visit the other. and has
not been seen since. She was not miss
ed until the next day, it being a con-
siderable distance between the two
places. OF the strange disappearance
there is much interest and comment
in Hilo, and Saturdays Tribune has
this to say of the efforts to find the
woman
When her loss was dicovered the po-
lice department was informed, and
several policemen and some citizens
were sent in search of her, a search
which resulted fruitlessly except that
hat and shawl were found. which
were identified by her daughter as be-
longing to her. The following day Il
still larger number of men. eighty or
more altogether, searched the forest
in the vicinity of the trail but with
out result. On Thursday afternoon
Sheriff Andrews organized a still lar
ger and more systematic search, be-
lieving that she should be found if
possible, though no hope existed of
finding her alive.
The McFarlanes came about two
two years ago from British Columbia
and took up Kaumana homesteads.
The woman who was lost is very old
probably from so to 90 years, though
her sons, two of whom by the way are
twins, do not know, and are uncertain
even of their own ages. All are gray
bearded men; the twins give their age
as 81 years, but have probably re-
versed the figures.

ed only in the gown in which she had
gone to sleep last night, the dead

and Mrs. Currence was gone. A
e"~ch was Instituted and her body
was found in an eddy in the river

be the Biggest COMBINATION In the
World.
Chicago, August 31.-The American
Steel and Wire Company, organized last
April by the consolidation Of compa-
MES controlling Is per cent Of the
production of wire rods and barbed
wire in the United States, has over
lures to become a party to the great
iron and steel combination now being
consummated in New York.
President John Lambert, of the
American Steel and Wire Company
with four directors and principal stock
holders ARE at the conference.
The American Steel and Wire Off
Gals stated that their acceptance OF
the proposition to become party to
the Federal Steel Company would be
contingent on the stock of that COM
pany being allowed to come in on
basis by which it could share fully and
fairly in the prospective benefits.
The participation of the American
Steel and Wire Company in the COM
bnation with the other companies that
mine and transport iron ore and con-
vert it into steel will add enormously
to the scope of the new corporation
and it will give it almost complete com
mand of all the diversified branches CT

United States.
