The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1901-05-30

1t was only recently that any one
thought of Honolulu as theatrical
town. Now it is very profitable, both
to the play producer and the patron. In
1898, when T. Daniel Frawley was seek
ing dates for his company. the subject
of visiting Honolulu was brought up.
Although Frawley had played long en-
gagements on the Pacific Coast, and
was more or less familiar with the
prosperous condition of the average
resident of the Hawaiian Islands, he
had never dreamed of any dramatic
company visiting the islands except
one of very mediocre caliber, with
correspondingly light expenses. But
there was the Royal Hawaiian Opera
House to be opened, and the public
would not have it dedicated by an in
ferior attraction, and SO, one November
day, Frawley bundled his company on
board a steamer, and away they sailed.
To play an engagement of four weeks
in town Of but 10000 inhabitants, of
which only a few thousand were eau
casins, was a unique undertaking, and
one which would mean great loss finan-
cially in any other city in the world of
the same size, but the conditions there
are sui generis, and the engagement
was both financial and artistic sue
cess Companies had appeared thers
before the Frawley enga gement in the
old theater, but this engagement was
the first played in the present opera
house.
The Royal Hawaiian Opera House
is modern well-equipped theater in
every respect, with auditorium and
stage on the ground floor. There is an
other place of amusement in Honolulu
called the Orpheum, which is given
over to variety entertainments and
of the cheaper class. Neither
of these theaters is open all of the time,
but one or the other is usually engaged
by some attraction most of the time.
Many Thespian notables have trod the
stage of the Hawaiian Opera House. ing
Guiding Nat Goodwin, James Neill of
the NELL company, and Nance O'Neil,
and the older inhabitants will refer
with pride to the time when Edwin
Booth appeared in Honolulu at the old
that served before the present
Hawaiian Opera House was built. That
was in 1853. according to the old-timers
of Honolulu. when Mr.. Booth was on
his way from this country to Australia.
1t was not, however. until last sum-
mer when James NeilI took the entire
Neill company that is at present play
ing an engagement at the California
Theater, together with it's carloads of
special scenery and paraphernalia to
Honolulu for an extended engagement,

objective point for theatrical companies

CHAPTER XI.

Once more, then, was plunged into
all the horrors of suspicion, fear and

At first | argued with myself that
might be mistaken, that the apparent
difference in the bottle OF medicine |
now held in my hand from the appear
ance it had presented when the old
doctor gave it TO NE short time
before. might be an effect of difference
of light, or of the settlement of some
sediment which | had previously no.
ticed near the bottom.
But a careful scrutiny revealed the
fact that not only the draught itself,
but the bottle which held it, had been
changed. There had been slight notch
in the rim of the bottle the doctor
gave me, the rim of that which ! now
held in my hand was without flaw.
AS for the mixture itself | had not.
indeed, looked at it very carefully when

Ny first impulse, when | had made

was to throw 1t away. My second was
to take it for analysis to the ships
doctor.

clons any more seriously than he had
taken the old one: and therefore fin

In Caney Bottoms Katy
Southbound Train is
Held Up.
DYNAMITE EXPLODED
Under Express Car, Wrecks
il and No Booty Being Found
in Safe. Passengers Were
Looted Of Their Personal
Effects.

The southbound Katy passen-
ger, that left this city yesterday
afternoon at 6 o'clock, was held
up abort' midnight at Caney flag
station near Atoka, Choctaw
nation. The express car was
dynamited into splinIers, and ex-
asperaied at their failure to OBJ
tain any loot from the demolished
safe, the robbers went through the
coaches and collected an assort-
mcnt of jewelry and over $500 IN
money from the panicky passen-
gers.
The spot selected by the robbers
for the hold up was perfectly
adapted TO their work. The flag
station, where the signal was set
that stopped the train, is situated
in the wild Caney bottoms, with
Atoka several miles away, the
nearest point from which assist
tance could be received.
The gang Of robbers is supposed
TO have consisted Of five members,
one OF whom mounted the engine
as the rapidly running train slowed
down in answer 70 the danger sig
nal that had been set, and cover
ing the engineer and fireman with
his revolver. forced them to bring
the train to stop. Other MEM
bers OF the band Immediately
attacked the express car. and fall

charge Of dynamite under the
flooring, which reduced the car TO

blown open, but fortunately con-
tanned nothing of value. Disap-
pointed in their efforts TO make
rich haul. the gang discharged a
fusilade OF shots TO further intim-
idate the panic-stricken passengers
who had been aroused by the ter
rife reports Of the exploding dyn-
amite. and then invaded the
coaches. collecting everything
of value the passengers mad
in their possession. About
$500 in money was obtained,
besides a valuable collection of
jeweIry.
After gathering in all the per-
sonal valuabIes Of the passengers,
the gang collected their forces that
had been acting as guards'and dis
appeared ia The darkness.

express car had escaped injury and |

Aioka, where the officers were i'm

train to the scene.
The gang, from the character Of
their work, is supposed by the off,
GERS TO have been composed Of dis
appointed home-seekers from the
newly opened lands.

morning leading off into The Wild
