1T may be interesting 20 state IN a
general way how marble statues are pro-
duced.
THE first thing the sculptor does Is TO
embody his idea in a small sketch say

clay ect The next step Is to build up in
clay the full size model on which the
sculptor spends all his knowledge artistic
abilities. experience. etc, and the final
success depends entirely on this clay
model which is his artistic and intellec-
tual creation When this model is en-
tirely finished, 1t is reproduced in plas-
ter. as the clay cannot be preserved.

cal reproduction Of the clay model Is set

THE e TONIGHT.
AmOrita'S Great Kun in England
and the United States,

At the Opera house tonight the Ho-
noluIu public will have a chance to
hear Il of the greatest of modern
comic opera productions. "Amorita'
was written about ten years ago by
Czibulki, the greatest Russian compos-
er living, and scored a success from the
very first. 1t has been sung almost
nightly in the big cities of the contin-
emf and it has been produced in Lon
don off and on so often that the sum of
the performances would amount to six
years if given IN succession.
In the United States it was first pro-
duced at the Casino by Pauline Hall,
and SO great was its success that the
opera ran continuously for two years.
Afterwards Pauline Hall took the
opera on the read for another two
years. Very few people in this city
know much OF the music Of "Amorita,'
but it is as full of beautiful airs and
choruses as an egg is with meat.
There are spirited marches aud any
amount Of comedy work for Kunkel
and Henderson. Hiss Stanton will ap-
pear as "AnoTita" and all the lead
ing members Of the company are cast
in the opera, which IS a favorite with
the company, Us it gives them abund-
ant opportunity to show what they
can do. In this opera Miss Stanton has
scored one OF her greatest successes in
the United States.
There IS no doubt that a great mus
lea. treat is N store for Honolulu peo-
pie tonight. At the afternoon per-
Torrance TIE ~ popular "Mascotte'
is the attraction.

THE SAMOAN DEAL
Paymaster Schroeder on
the Situation.
The German War Vessel Cormorar
to Remain at Apia Until After
Settlement.

Over-Paymaster Schroeder of the
German war vessel Cormoran at Apia,
Samoa, was a through passenger on
the Mariposa yesterday. He has serv-
ed two years on the Cormoran and is
now homeward bound to report TO the
German Admiralty oh.ce personally.
Mr.. Schroeder expresses himself we'll
satisfied with the ~tripartite arrange
Congress viii ratify the agreement for
division of the Samoan group. As the
result of the partition Mr.. Schroeder
states that the warning factions are
very we'll satisfied for the reason that
under the new conditions they are not
obliged to report to three different con-
sulates as formerly, and feel that their
status is now more clearly defined. He
states thai the English lawyers and
officials are leaving Apia, only the Am
erican and German merchants remain
ing. IN his opinion, the Americans
have gained possession Of a fine harboI
at Page Pago, and in view of the con-
structive wharf work under way there
will make it as fine a coaling station
as the United States has in its
island possessions.
The Cormoran was ready to leave
for Sydney, but it was later decided to
keep the war vessel IN Samoan waters
until everything is settled, inasmuch
as the English war vessel Torch is still
maintained to prevent any interference
until her affairs with Germany in Fan
Zibar are brought to an amicable set
Element. When this is accomplished
and English supremacy is thoroughly
established in Zanzibar, the English
war vessel will be ordered away from
Samoa.
The Paymaster says ar immense
amount of German capital will at once
develop the Plantations since all doubt
of uncertainty has been removed as to
the stability OF the local government.
