ADDITIONAL PROFIT ON SUGAR
OF S3,115, 900.
Quite Sack to Fail to the Islands as
the Result of Advance in Price of
Raws i'm the East.

The advance in the price of raw su-
gar on the mainland means a great
deal to the Islands. When stock ad-
vances S5 a day a holder says. IT am
worth s. a share more than l was yes
terday," and if he has 100 shares of
the boom stock he is worth $5,00e more
than he was yesterday. and so on.
Thus, while Hawaii has been putting
vast sums of idle capital into new
plantations and the taxable wealth of
the country has increased enormously
i'm the past few months, the hand of
fortune has been liberal in other ways.
1t is easy to see how the Islands will
clear a large sum of money over last
year on the same output of sugar. Or,
coming straight to the past, present
and future figures, the result would
be something like this, calculating up
on an output of 250,00O tons.
Had the crop been sold in January.
or even February or March, when the
figures were 4 3-S cents a pound. the
receipts would have been $21,S7O,O0O.
On the basis of figures by the last mail
which are spot 9-16, the output would
bring $22, 500. This represents an
additional profit in a few days-like
finding it, as the old proverbs might
have said-Of $93I,50O.
Now, as to the future. Letters state
that the figures are apt to reach with
! in month cents fiat. On that basis
the Hawaiian output would bring the
! handsome sum of S25, ,000,00O-a little
| more than Ed Pollitz's big check. The
second additional profit, over a sale on
! the present basis, would therefore be
| 81, 1877 500, or a total increase of profit
since the advance began of SO, 10000.
The word profit" is here used sy-
anonymously with the word advance.
! But if there was a profit when the
| figures were 4 3-S cents, it would APP
pear that the $S,115,000 was n sort { (

WOMEN KISS A MURDERER

Henry Napuupahee, who is charged
with the murder of his father-in-law
Moemoe near Hookena, April 11th,
was brought to Honolulu on the stea-
mer Upolu this morning. He came in
charge of Policeman Kaimana. He
was committed for trial at the next
term of the circuit court for the third
circuit, by Thomas Wright, district
magistrate for South Kona. He Is
charged with murder in the first de-
gree. He was brought here for deten-
ton in Oahu Jail until court convenes
in July.
1t is believed that he is insane. On
the steamer he was quiet, almost mo-
rose, and seemed to have no apprecia-
tion of the enormity of his crime.
At Kailua, where he was taken on
board the Upolu, a most remarkable
scene was enacted. There were a large
number of natives at the landing, more,
Captain Henningsen says, than he ev-
er saw there before. The crowd includ-
ed nearly fifty native women of all
ages. Just as he was about to be put
in the boat to go to the steamer the
women crowded around him, hugging
and kissing him. Every individual
woman insisted on an opportunity to
hug and kiss him. He was handcuffed
but gave no indications or any emo
tions while these strange tokens OF a
strange sentiment were bestowed on
him, accepting them with stolid indif-
ference,

ORPHEUN LICENSE MATTER
DESKY WOULD MANDAMUS THE
MINISTER OF INTERIOR.
Claims That the Tax is Exorbitant
and Asks for Relef-Minster Says O.
X, but Points to the Law.

The Orpheum license matter has
found it's way into the circuit court.
First, Marshal Brown summoned Mr..
Desky to answer to the charge of run
ming a theater without a license. Prior
to that the manager of the Orpheum
had had something to say to Minister
King about charging $5 a night FOR
every night in the year. T. McCants
Stewart, attorney for Mr.. Desky, ran
up against Marshal Brown and was
put out of that officials office.
This morning Mr. Desky filed in the
circuit court a petition for a writ OF
mandamus to compel the minister of
interior to give him a license for the
Orpheum from the Goth of April to De
cember 3lst. 1t is shown therein that
the Orpheum is open every night and
every Saturday afternoon and that the
license fee of So for each performance
is out of reason and unconstitutional.
Late this afternoon Minister King
VIII file reply. 1t Will admit to be
true all that the complaint alleges, but
at the end will point to the statutes,
leaving the rest to the courts to de
eide. The law provides a license
which shall cost $5 for each perform
ance. 1t is almost certain that the leg
islature did not have in mind continu-
Gus shows when the law was made.
Mr.. Desky tells the court that by
following the letter of the law he will
pay in the year nearly $1,000 for his Ii
cense, which will be more than is as
sessed upon any other business Of
like income. 1t is nearly twice as
much as is required of a saloon, and is
as much as is collected from a mercan-
tile establishment doing a million dol
lar business.
In the matter of James j. Byrne VS..
+. j. VOeller, suit for salary in the sum
of l,120 defendant has filed an answer

ance upon payment and release.

JANET WALDORF'S COMING
DEBUT IN HONOLULU
Sketch of the Talented Young Actress
Who Will Open with Viola on Sat
urday Evening.

Two years ago the name of Janet
Waldorf was hardly known in the the
atrical world, but two years is a long
time when one has talent and is con-
stantly showing the public that the
spark Of genius is bursting into a flame
and it is in just that length of time
that she has become a star. Miss Wal
dorf is of a retiring disposition and
when off the stage looks as little like
an actress as one can imagine, but
when the play is on and her natural
way is laid aside and the character she
is portraying is in her soul, one would
hardly believe that she is the same
quiet, good natured, matter of fact,
woman of every day life.
A woman who can put her whole
life and soul into a Julia, Parthenia,
Beatrice, Juliet, Viola Galatea, Rosa
lind, camille or Pauline, and forget
her own nature, must certainly have
talent and will reach the pinnacle of
fame that is sought by many and
gained by few.
The Introductory performance of the
Waldorf Company on Saturday night
will show Miss Waldorf as one of the
twins Shakespeare's classical come
dies "NRalfth Night" William McVay
a legitimate actor who has won fame
with such stars as Mary Anderson,
Margaret Mather and Julia Marlowe,
will play the character of Sir Toby
Belch, while Norval McGregor will por-
tray Malvolio. The other members OF
the company are all professionals of
experience and the old comedy will be
given in a manner as to acting and
costumng, perfectly satisfactory to al
lovers of the bard's works.
Next Tuesday evening Shakespeare 5
pastoral drama, LAS You Like tt
with Janet Waldorf as the Fair Ros-
alind, will be the play.
Single reserved seats will be on sale
| tomorrow for all performances.

Orders.
SAN FRANCISCO, April l1.-Uncle
Sam wants coal at Samoa and wants
it in a hurry, too. In consequence the
United States collier Brutus sailed at
10 a. m. yesterday with 4,500 tons on
board and the supposition is that she
will go direct to Apia. This is change
from the regular original plans. When
the collier came down from Mare Is
land and began taking on her cargo it
was given out that she was going TO
Guam with a supply of coal for the
warships there. The arrival of the
Mariposa from Samoa last Friday,
with news from Admiral Kautz of the
Philadelphia. changed all these plans,
however. The work of loading the
Brutus was rushed to conclusion and
Yesterday she sailed under sealed or

Captain Cottman, u. S. N, is in
command of the Brutus, and with him
are Lieutenants Tarbox, McCully and
Stafford and DR.. Stone. The suppos-
tion is that the collier will go from
here to Apia, Samoa, and there coal the
Philadelphia. From there she will go
to Honolulu, take on another cargo
of coal and proceed to Guam as origi-
nally intended. The Brutus is a good
nine knot ship and should make the
run to Samoa in fourteen days.

apparently about the destination of
the collier Brutus, which sailed from

their shipping columns the papers give
the destination of the mosquito fleets
flagship as Guam, but publish dispat-
ches from Washington stating that the
vessel will go to Apia, Samoa. If Guam
is correct the Brutus should arrive here
tomorrow or Friday. If Samoa is her
destination the collier will not neces-

CAPTAIN GEORGE ANKERs.
All Hope for the Missing Skipper Now
Given Up.

GlNen Up.
Captain George Ankers of the schoo-
ner Oceania Vance, is still missing and
his relatives and friends at San Fran
CISCO have given him up for dead. The
supposition is that in passing down
the long wharf to Oakland he fell be-
tween the stringers and was drowned.
The long wharf is not boarded and in
order to pass railroad cars one has TO
do some work similar to walking rail
road ties At night the difficulty can
well be imagined.
Private information from relatives
of the captain, received here per the
Nippon Maru, is to the same effect. An
kers carried considerable life insurance
a move to collect ii has already been
made, but the effort is being attended
by the difficulties so usual in disap-
pearanCe cases.
Captain Murchison of the Uncle John
has been appointed to command the
Oceania Vance in place of the missing
man. The latter vessel sailed on the
9th for the Sound.
