which will be seen at the Lyceum to-
night: THE company is composed of
artists of high rank. and their work
was greatly appreciated by the large
audience present. The music played
represented almost all the schools of
composition. The shading in their con-
erted efforts was truly marvellous The
ensemble work could hardly be sur
passed"

THEATRICAL.
Sherlock Holmes" Last Night.

William Gillette gave the second per-
formance of his magnificent play,
Sherlock Holmes" before a Scranton
audience last night, which was enthusl.
astic in the extreme. So enthusiastic.
In fact, that at the end of the last act,
instead Of making for the door, as
Scranton play-goers usually do, the
audience remained in their seats, and
called the curtain up for an encore.
This is something unique in Scran-
ton, and speaks higher than any words
could for the merits of the perform
ance.

noon at o'clock.
Both bones were broken and pro-
truded through the flesh. 1t was at
first thought amputation would be nee
essary, but later the doctors thought
there was n possibility of saving the
arm and the wounds were dressed with
that end in view.
The unfortunate man also sustained

HAWAITS POSITION.

The passage through the house of
the bill extending the American ship
ping laws to these Islands does not
necessarily mean that it will pass in
its present shape through the senate.
If it passes in it's present shape a YES
sci that did not fly the Hawaiian flag
prior to July 9TH will not be eligible for
Hawaiian registry Even as it is,
those proceedings which have been re-
Gently taken in our courts will have
to stop, for what earthly good is it FOR
our courts giving decisions in the face
of an act of the house of representa-
tives.
There is no doubt that we are in an
unfortunate position just now. We are
getting piecemeal legislation when we
most ardently desire radical legisla-
ton which will let us know exactly
where we stand. The courts say they
have no jurisdiction in the Chinese
matter; it looks very much as if they
have no jurisdiction over the matter
of granting registers to vessels. What
will be the next perogative Topped off
we shall see later.
1t is to be earnestly hoped that Sen
ator Cullom will be able to push for
ward the Hawaiian bill and that he
will be able to overcome the opposition
to it. But there is so much before the
senate and house that the wants and
desires of only 100000 people or so look
very small indeed when they are COM
passed with the mOmentous events
which are almost daily occurring.
Truly the executive and the legisla-
tive branches of the national govern
ment are pretty well overworked at the
present time, and from the general ap-
pearance of things they are likely TO
be kept with their noses to the grind
stone for some time to come. The set
Ting up after a war is harder, by far,
then merely winning the battles. In
the general furry Hawaii is apt to sink
out of sight for a time.
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1899-02-01

deeper far than any party feeling; 1t
is the corner stone of the republic, and
those who make mistake about it are
very likely to be broken upon it.
Nevertheless the complications in the
Philippines are serious. Aguinaldo is
playing his cards for recognition of his
republic by the Spanish government,
by the Pope, and he hopes sincerely
by Germany. But such recognition
under the present status of affairs is
by no means likely, for it would be
distinctly an unfriendly act towards
the United States, and 1t would be a
violation of good faith to do so.
Whatever the feeling of individual
Spaniards may be, and however much
they may rejoice at any difficulty the
United States may be in with regard
to the insurgents, nothing of a public
character can be done. Germany stout
ly denies that she wants to do any
thing to trouble the relations of the
United States. The Pope in such a
matter will be guided by the opinions
of the archbishop of Manila, and the
latter is strongly in favor of annexa-
ton,
But it does not argue we'll for the
honesty of Aguinaldo to be trying to
make a treaty with the Spaniards to
recognize him. In fact a cash" pat
riot like Aguinaldo is not to be trusted
by any one. If the Americans would
have let him he would have looted Ma
Mia and cut the throat of every Span
lard he could come across. He would
be just as ready to cut the throat of
every American if he only got the
chance. What the Filipinos want is
holocaust of crime, and they foresee
that under American dominion there
must be obedience to law and Austen
ton from many favorite vices. How
ever, President Mckinley will guide
the ship of state wisely in these
troubled waters and will keep the
stars and stripes flying, wherever it
has been raised.

IN THE BRAILS.

The situation in the Philippines is
so large a reinforcement is going over
to Dewey, though it will be some weeks
before it will reach him. The blame
for the condition of affairs rests with
the senators who have blocked for a
time the ratification of the treaty.
The condition of the troops sent to
Iloilo is very precarious on account of
the climate. Cooped up in their trans
ports, if disease once gets a good hold
upon them, they will die like sheep, and
there will be nothing to do but to re-
turn to Manila. The moral effect of
such movement upon the Filipinos
will be tremendous. 1t will of course
be represented by Aguinaldo G. Co. as
a victory, and the natives are too igno-
rant and too little versed in foreign
affairs to understand the real reason
that the Americans did not land. That
is the worst of threatening force, with
out using it, when dealing with semi
civilized people.
On the other hand Aguinaldo himself
IS liable to mis-calculate grievously,
for whatever touches American honor,
at once brings the whole of the Unit
ed States together as one man, and the
divisions of Republican, or Democrat,
EXpansiOnist or -EXpansionist, are
swept away in a moment when it be-
comes a question of supporting the
gallant troops and sailors that have
fought the battles of the republic, and
the national representatives voice at
once the will of a united people.
What the people of the United States
understand, outsiders, and especially
men of the Latin race and Latin affil-
iations, do not understand. The bitter
ness of party feeling and the freedom
of expressing dissatisfaction are con-
sidered by those not familiar with re-
publican institutions as lying far deep
er than they really do The most
acute party feeling may exist, but the
national feeling, the feeling that makes
the dweller in the United States proud

Everything is not smooth in Cuba.
A section of insurgents does not wish
to obey the United States officials or
those of the Cuban officials, and has,
under one of it's generals, taken up
arms against the regime of law and
order. After all upheavals there has
to be a considerable winnowing of the
chaff from the wheat. In Cuba there
seems every chance of this being very
promptly done. 1t is just as well for
the dissatisfied to come boldly out and
be shown who is master and who is
not

The secret of the sea has at length
been revealed, and the wreck on Ha-
wall proves to be the Nomad, which
sailed from Shanghai in ballast ten
months ago. When she was wrecked,
or how long she has been drifting on
the bosom of the Pacific no one can
tell. A current has brought the grim
story to our shores. What we can
learn of it is sad enough. Captain NC
Allep, his son and three daughters,
have found a watery grave together,
and have Joined that great congrega-
ton which waits till the sea gives up
her dead" The unhappy wife, who has
hoped against hope in San Francisco
will, when the Moana arrives, have
that hope crushed forever. 1t is a sad
story but one that will be repeated
again and again as long as men cross
the ever tossing main. OF course the
story strikes us here, but what is it
compared with the wreck strewn coast
of the Atlantic only a few weeks ago,
not one but hundreds of families were
bereaved.
