IT WAS A
TORRID DAY
Honolulu Begins to Get a Taste
of Summer Weather
Now.

Old Sol went on a rampage yesterday
and played havoc with collars and
shirt bosoms and the tempers of every
body who thought it ought to be cool.
When Old Sol beamed down upon the
long glass tubes wherein the mercury
whether it is hot, cold or just medium,
the contents began to steam, the tubes
swelled out and for time during the
middle of the day it was believed that
there would be a greater furry in ther-
mometers than ever occurred during a
sugar or wheat panic. The beams from
Soils single eye started the mercury to
boil and the liquid spurted UP until Sc
was reached-that is, in The thermome-
ters hung out on Makiki door posts.
Everybody said, 'Phew, amt it hot?2
and everybody else agreed that the
expression just about fitted the torrid-
ity of the day. Pajamas. kimonos and
holokus were a la mode, and those who
dressed for church were only too glad
to get back home from their devotions
and slip into something that would

men were .out in force, carrying their
coats under their arms. There was

Just what impelled Sol to beam down
upon suffering humanity so warmly is
difficult to tell, unless it was the lack
of wind from any quarter whatsoever.
In the forenoon Makiki thermometers
registered all the way from 50 to Sc.

toward the top of the Brocken and falls
back at the summit Just as he was
ready to come upon the stage he had
pilikia with his whiskers, the rubber
band which held them in place having
broken. Seeing this difficulty. another
imp beat a hasty retreat from the revel
and secured the hirsute ornament for
him by utilizing strands of the whis
kers in place of the rubber band. Thus
equipped, the old man made his way
across the stage and completed his
hopeless climb without the incident be-
coming known to the audience.
Accident favored the production in
the next happening. In the poverty of
competent assistants, Miss Roberts
manipulated the thunder drum, which
was strung in the air so as TO produce
the proper sound. Miss Roberts was
not satisfied with the tension of the
drum head and called to Machinist
Smell, who in attempting to adjust the
matter unlooSed the hanging and the
big drum tumbled down, striking the
machinist upon the head and producing
an opportune crash just as Mephisto
shouted the third Begin Subsiding
reverberations were caused by the big
drum as it rolled across the floor and
bumped down a couple of stairs; the
emphatic expressions of the gentleman
whose head was so severely used may
have had something to do with the
sulphuric condition of the atmosphere
about that time. Whether the quality
of the terrific crash resulted from the
tension of the drum or the hardness OF
Mr.. Snelrs head, or the two combined,
is a matter for conjecture. At any rate
the thunder passed as realistic with the
audience, and no harm was done other
than the abrasions sustained by Mr..
Smell.

vision of Marguerite in chains to ap-
pear in the Brocken scene, Miss Rob-
erts was posed, the slide was properly

that the missing netting had been util
lied, under the impression that it was
a tablecloth, by the small boy who car
ried away Camille's luncheon in the
afternoon performance.
The pilikia really began, however,
when, in the duel scene the electric
sparks which should have been at the
command of Mephisto failed to mater
ialize, the lights having been turned off
for the purpose Of making the spectacle
effective. The electric plates upon
which Mephisto. Faust aud Valentine
were to place their feet had been in
perfect working order and the sparks
had appeared in abundance just before
the rise of the curtain, but when it
came to the Evil Ones interference
with the duel, the three actors clashed
their swords in vain, the sparks refus-
ing to fly. The trouble was that Mr..

Carlyle -noore, under heavy perspira-

three calcium lights, various red fires
and making signals for the shifting of
scenery. He was in costume, having
intended 10 participate in the revels of
the imps, but had no time to go upon
the stage. The costume, however, stood
him in good stead. He was at one side
of the stage when he heard the cue for
the turning on of the red calcium as
Mephisto and Faust began the ascent
from the Brocken. and as there was
not time to go around, he shot des-
perately across among the other imps
and got to his post in time to follow

that Mr. Gehr has not abandoned the en-

Morrison, however, was there almost
as powerful as of yore, but the lack
of these strange accessories to surround
the role of Mephisto was sadly felt,
and one wondered whether or not

Gered.
What is true of Morrison's interpre-
tation of the role of Satan in the flesh
can be said of Miss Florence Roberts
as Marguerite. Naive and innocent was
this stage Marguerite in her knowledge
of the world before the appearance Of
the arch fiend and his dupe Faust, and
womanly, masterful and forceful was
she as the Marguerite to whom had
come the full knowledge of the world,
the flesh and the devil" Miss Roberts

The climax was capped by the fly

act. They had been instructed what to
do, and in accordance with the instruc-
tions they lowered the baton which
contained the fireworks for the electric
shower; but they had not anticipated
the result when the igniting arrange

In point of fact there were about three
hours of nightmare for the stage man

easier, according to their story, to
enumerate what did not go wrong than
to attempt to say what did go wrong.
Only by the constant hustling and the
determination of the small force of
stage manipulators was the day saved
and the curtain rung down upon only
three perceptible defects.

but Faust with Morrison, clothed

about all that modern theater-goers

which the arch fiend represents. Nor
