In Iba it had been known that the

on the town in force under Genr San

by faithful Chino, who, one evening
brought the information that the enc

all retired to the stone quarters, form.

the alert. About O. m. the enemy
fired q signal gun and the fire opened

waited until they had come within 200
yards and opened up. The effect was
awful. The enemy retired in hasty
disorder, leaving 30 of their dead on
the field, q complete victory for our

Mrs. Fiske who plays Becky Sharp
next week at the Oliver, Is one OF the
most interesting actresses in this
country. She is neither beautiful nor
does she possess the peculiar feminine
charm that has helped Julia Marlowe
and Maud Adams so much. She Is a
slight. fragile woman, with an incom.
prehensible power Of conveying some
Of the emotion that rends her, TO the
audience which listens to her in spite
Of a rapid and unintelligible elocu-
tion, which In 50 gifted woman as
Mrs. FIske Is incomprehensible.
. Becky Sharp is cold-blOoded mink,
born to hardships which she resented
and detied As Mrs. Fiske presents
the character you feel or are made
aware Of Becky's temperamental cold
ness and Of her intellectual mastery
OF every situation. She is interesting
and reminds one, not Of any one wo.
man but Of the characteristics Of first
one and then another. Not until the
supper scene with Lord Steyne and
after the entrance of Rawdon Crawley
Is it suddenly revealed how great and
truly original an actress Mrs. Fiske is.
She is incoherent, and her voice
cracks and breaks with the sudden
consciousness that forever more she is
an Outcast The overwhelming ma
ture Of the accident Is clearer TO her
than to most wOmeu because her Wits
are 50 sharp and she has a stronger
imagination than most women. In
that stroke Of tightening the struc-
ture she has been building all her life
falls down, is utterly wrecked and
frO,.l that moment she Is a wanderer.
The play might end there. IL it were

though Becky performs her benevol-
ence with scOrn for her own weak

Mrs. Fiske's support is excellent.

CHRISTIAN JAPANESE
CELEBRATE THE DAY

The Sunday schools of the local
japanese churches observed Thanks
giving in a fitting style. At the Nuu-

festivities began. At these exercises
Superintendent NaHamnra presided.
Prayer was offered by Mr.. Okumura,
remarks by MIR. kawabara. In the
evening the Methodist. Christian and
Congregational Japanese churches
held a union meeting at which Rev.
Okumura. Rev. w. X. Azbili and Rev.
Kihara participated.
After the services in the morning a
procession was formed at the Nuu-
anu street church and in the charge Of
the Sunday school superintendent
they marched up Beretania street 10

weeks and Conlon and Ryder quite
outdid themselves last night, keeping
the house convulsed with laughter
throughout their turn. The closing
turn OF Hanlon and Singer on the
swinging rings was a clever ut of ac-
ropatic work. Altogether it was a
good entertainment and well worthy
of generous patronage by the people
of Honolulu. The management of the
Orpheum should be encouraged by
good business wnen they present such
a bill as was presented last night.
The Republican would suggest to
the management however that during
the intermission water be passed by
the ushers. Women patrons can not
patronize the bar, even if they wanted
to. and il would be boon to have a
cool drink of water during the even
ing. And if the good patronage only
keeps up for a while do for goodness
sake get some new settings. Those
old ones are not only time worn but
look ''tacky."
