JESSIE NORTON WITH THE EulEfoRD co.

Monday night will see the closing of
performance of a work new to Honolu-
lu, THE Fencing Master
The season cannot be said TO have
been eminently successful, the compa-
ny not having had fair show by rea-
son Of the virulent criticisms directed
papers published here. It is said that
professional jealousy and suasion on
the part of persons once connected
with the stars of the Stanton company,
have occasioned the hostility, which
has within the last few days changed
ground
Newspaper criticism is a powerful
factor in moulding public opinion, and
such weapon should be placed only
in the hands of those conversant with
its proper use. Judged fairly, the
Stantons have entertained their au-
diences, and should have reaped fair
r-ward for their efforts. AS it Is, a
pl.cky little woman has lost a portion
of her well-earned savings which she
has staked. upon the present trip.
Miss Stanton has many friends in
Honolulu who have been as much cha
grined as she at the poor houses that
have greeted her. 1 understand that
a movement is on foot among promi-
nent society ladies of the city to give
the star a benefit performance, to
show their appreciation of her efforts.

fort to see. If the crowd turns out
or not these last two evenings, the
Stantons will carry with them the
good will of the better part of the
community upon their big undertake
ing, their Australian season
The, Ellefords, who have effectively
papered the town, appear on Thursday,
not Saturday; as announced on the
dated Autographs. The company comes
highly recommended by Seattle and
Portland papers, both for responsible
dramatic work, and effective scenery
and costumes.
At popular prices, should they prove
the value of the notices that have pre-
ceded them, there is a welcome await
ing them from the public of this city.
Melodrama and broad comedy haven't
visited Honolulu for a long time, and
there is an aching void in the breasts
of the public for a hearty laugh, or
the thrill of genuine melodramatic
situation, that will bring money TO the
pockets of the manager who fills 1t.
The dramatization of Quo Vadis,' .
while a hard problem, seems to have
been successfully solved in the version
secured under royalty by the Ellie
fords.
The play is staged in six acts, with
eight scenes, including the scene in the
arena and the burning of Rome. The
costumes are, of course, elaborate, as
well as the scenery. The Ellefords
guarantee not to use a piece of the
Orpheum stock scenery, a fact which,
alone, will endear them to the pub
lie.
The box office opens on Monday, and
the admission has been placed at pop
ular prices. The Ellefords have a fair
field to inaugurate a successful season.

MISS DAWSON
AT SAN FRANCISCO,
Sees Some Marked Contrasts
Between That Place and
Honolulu.

Mrs. Henry Smith, wife of the clerk
of the judiciary, has received the fol-
lowing letter from Miss Rose Davi-
son, Hawaiian Commissioner to the
Pan-American Exposition:
Palace Hotel, San Francisco,
May 81, 1901
My dear Mrs. Smith:
We have arrived safely in San Fran
cleo, and had a very pleasant voyage
the weather was all that could be ex-
pected of this season of the year, and
we enjoyed the trip exceedingly, ana
are very well at the present writing.
We are staying at the Palace Hotel,
and the environments are all that could
be desired, and we are enjoying our
selves immensely. We will not leave
for Buffalo until Monday. the 9Th. on
which date we will be well rested and
quite willing to start on our trip across
the continent, which we anticipate en-
joying greatly.
San Francisco is, indeed, very busy
city; everybody seems to be hurrytng
and without a moment to waste-it Is
so very different from home, and we
find everything intensely interesting.
Will close for the present writing
with aloha nui, believe me,
Very truly yours.

The horse abattoir at Linnton, which
was shut down last fall. has started up
again, says a Portland, Ore, dispatch.
AS conditions are more favorable for
its successful operation. 1t is likely to
be kept running indefinitely. About 800
cayuse ponies have been sent In from
the ranges, and it is probable that TO-
600 will be slaughtered this year 1t
is estimated, that there are more than
500, 900 cayuse ponies ranging over the
country tributary to this market.
Stockmen are very anxious that these
horses should be driven away. to pre-
serve the ranges to cattle and sheep.
Horse meat has found favor in Swe-
den and Norway, and several orders
have been received from there.

The Department of Public Instruction
which controls the schools of the Ha-
waiian Islands. Is sending to the Pam
American Exposition at Buffalo. N. Y,
a display of school children's work. The
Senate at Honolulu voted $500 to de-
fray the expenses. and Miss Rose Davi
son, native of the islands, was chosen
to accompany the exhibit. The steam
ship Sierra brought the exhibit to this
city, and also the young lady, the first
woman ever commissioned by the Ha-
waiian Legislature for work of any
kind. Miss Dawson is assistant secre-
tary and school agent of the Depart
ment of Public Instruction. She has
Hawaiian blood and sturdy Scotch in
her veins.-San Francisco Examiner.

Chicago, Feb. "A siXteen-year-old
boy tried to initiate Pat Grove last
night in an attempt to make John AL
exander Dowie give up $1,000 for the
body of Arthur Barnard, the teller Of
Zion bank, who has been missing since
Saturday. A central station detective
inpersonated Dowie. Another wore the
whiskers which distil guished Barnards
father and together the officers went to
the spot indicated by the boy in a.
threatening letter to Dowie and there
arrested him. The boys heart is full
of repentance and his eyes are full of
tears. He is in a cell at detective head
quarters waiting for Chief Ripley, Capt.
Colleran and Dowie to determine what
shall be done with him. He says: "My
name is Charley Cererblade, and live

Fargo, n. D., Feb. 2. - The business
portion of Fort Abercrombie, thirty
miles south of Fargo, was destroyed
last night by fire. which is reported to
have been started by an overturned
lamp in a machinery house.
Both the telegraph and telephone
wires We're grounded, but messages
from adjoining towns state that the
fire was controlled after eleven BUSH
ness houses had been destroyed. These
included the bank, postoffice. Milwau-
kee depot. elevator, two implement
warehouses. three general stores, drug
store and telephone exchange. All the
business houses on the south side of
the main street were burned. The loss
is placed at from $4,000 to 100000, with
less than $4,000 insurance.
The fire started early in the evening
and burned for five hours. There was
a steady northwest wind, which famed
the flames. There was no fire depart
ment, and zero weather prevented much
work being done by the bucket brig
ade. Many things We're saved from
the flames.
Fort Abercrombie is the earliest set
tied point in this part of the Red river
valley, and was formerly a Hudson
Bay company trading station, being
the midway stopping place from st.
Paul to Winnipeg. More recently it
was a government fort during exciting
period of the Indian wars.

st. Paul, Feb. 2.-President j. j. Hill
and Controller Harrington arrived in

President Hill was seen at his residence
and did not deny the report that the

would not. however, confirm the re-

ment as had been mentioned in the
papers was not an impossibility. When
asked point blank whether the nego-

the st. Paul has been put through, and
that final negotiations were completed
