the engineer forced to uncouple the
tender and run the engine and tender
a few yards in advance of the train.
The next scene is the holdup of the
passengers, scores of them, by the rob-
bers at the side of the standing cars.
One robber stands in front with drawn
revolvers while the others march down
the line with a satchel and take watch
es and various valuable. A man tries
to escape and is shot and killed. The
robbers run forward with their booty
then there is a rush to the wounded
man by the passengers. The next scene
is the robbers boarding the engine and
escaping, leaving the engine at re-
mote spot and rushing down the side of
a gulley, mounting horses and riding
away.
Then follows the scene of a camp
where the robbers are dancing with the
women, the alarm is given and the
crowd rushes out of the place, to be
seen next riding away with the posse
in pursuit. One of the robbers is shot
and rolls off his horse. This scene is
one of the best of the show.
The final scene is the round up and
battle where the remaining robbers are
shot and killed by the posse.
It is stated that the cost of securing
the holdup was $12 600 Evidently it cost
good sized sum. Everybody is splen-
didly trained. The scenes are dramatic,
the action natural and the work done in
the most systematic manner. There is
also shown the scene in the telegraph
station where the little daughter of the
operator aroused her father and he
! gives the alarm of the robbery.

MADAME SLAPOFFSKI RENAL

Madame Slaponski scored another
success i'm her concert of last night
The nature of the program gave her
far greater opportunities for the dis
play of her superb voice and its dra-
matte qualities and the audience revel-
led i'm a luxury all too seldom heard
in Honolulu, the melodious revelat ton
of one Of the few perfect sopranos of
the present century.
Madame Sapoffsllis voice is of the
quality described by European critics
as golden" From the thrilling, pow
erful notes of her upper register to
her voluptuous lower tones, there is
not a note that is not rounded, strong
forceful and under perfect control. It's
music is essentially fresh. Madame
Slapoffski is only a young woman but
of course years of training stand back
of her wonderful technique, yet the
prime quality that stikes one is the
fresh quality of the voice. The
dramatic sensibility of the singer does
much for this of course but the abb
| sence of effort is markedly enjoyable.
Her enunciation is delightfully."- dis
! tinct and her personal stage presence
| most magnetic. Her audience of last
! night was hard to satisfy and went
home very unwillingly So varied was
! the range of the program that it would
be hard to choose any number as the
best though the most popular seemed
to be a triumphant rendering Of Allet-
sons Song of Thanksgiving" The
Faust selections showed rare dramatic
| inspiration and gave one a glimpse OF
what delightful Marguerite the singer
must make
In simple airs she charmed equally
consummate art and sympathy hiding
all the grand opera" singer in some
sweet voiced woman who sang Robir
Adair with tear in her throat tina
thrilled the audience as Wagner's bril-
liant Tannhauser selection failed to do
A selection from Mariana followed by
a DANGEROUSLY demanded encore, TIT
Flower Song closed the programme
to which Mrs. Gerard Barton as ac
companist contributed in liberal NEE,
of its success.

THE d. At
WATERBURY.

1t had been proposed to hold a
picnic at Stowe, or in some other
way mark the departure of Mrs. @.
H. More, one of the Marquis de
Lafayette Daughters of thessAmerican
Revolution. It had been suggested by
Mrs. Harvey Henry, living some two
miles below Waterbury, in a delight
full locality, that the gathering be
held there. Mrs. More and Mrs.
Henry had been girlhood friends; so
the suggestion was adopted, but un-
fortunately illness deprived the pro-
posed recipient of these honors of the
pleasure of personal participation
her mother, Mrs. Rhinehart, attending
in her stead. The Daughters were
met at the Waterbury station by Mrs.
@. O. Warren with teams and conveyed
to the Henry farm. A choice lunch
was served in the dining room of the
farm house, rain having fallen in the
morning and the skies being overcast.
In the afternoon the company, includ-
ing the Daughters from Waterbury,
assembled under the wide branching
oak neal sunset rock, on the slope
rising from the farm house, and spent
the day In jollity and ''mirth that
wrinkled care derides, The reporter
regrets that the reticence of the
members deprives him of material for
a more detailed story of what was
evidently "a perfectly delightful"
occasion,

AN EDITORS
EXPERIENCE
In the Treatment Of HumOurS
with More Than Magical
Effect with
CUTICURA REMEDIES.
A Remarkable Testimonial from
a Most Intelligent and
Trustworthy Lady.

ga tumor came on my neck and IN a
day or two 1t was as large as half an
orange. 1 was very much alarmed for
fear it was malignant. My friends
tried to persuade me to consult my
physician; but dreading that he would
Insist on using the knife, 1 would not
consent to go. Instead, I got Cuticura
Resolvent and Cuticura Ointment. I
took the former according to dlrec.
tons, and spread a thick layer Of the
Ointment on the swelling. On renew
ing 1t l would battle my neck in very
warm water and Cuticura Soap. In a
few days the Cuticura Ointment had
drawn the swelling to a head, when it
broke. Every morning it was opened
with a large sterilized needle, squeezed
and bathed, and fresh Ointment put
on. Pus and blood, and a yellow,
cheesy, humorous matter came out. In
about three or four weeks time this
treatment completely eliminated the
tumor. The soreness that had ex-
tended down into my chest was all
gone, and my neck nov seems to be
perfectly well.
"About five or six years ago my sis
ter had a similar experience, used the
Cuticura Remedies with magical effect.

monial, with the further privilege of

persons as may wish to substantiate

ERANS.

From all the surrounding towns the
veterans of the civil war gathered at
Dewey Park on Wednesday afternoon
to observe the seventh annual reunion
Association. The hall was profusely
decorated with the emblems of free
dom for which they fought and suf-
fered and, though crippled with age
and rheumatism, their countenarces
were expressive of the spirit which
made them prominent in the field of
strife. About 40 visited the secre-
tary, John Il. Wilson, during the
afternoon and evening, and paid their
dues and respects. About the same
number we're present last year.. Dur
ing the present year eighteen new
members have beer taken into the as
ISOLATION and twelve only have died.
In the evening the names of the twelve
we're read, after which the strains of
''There Will Be One Vacant Chair
echoed through the hall and died
away in the folds of the flag. Fol-
lowing is the list J. 4. Randall of

After the addresses of welcome,
several fine addresses were made.
Among the speakers were Rev. q. j.
Brown of Cabot. Newman Weeks of
Rutland, who assisted Gen. Davis as
quartermaster general at the time Of
the raising of troops in Vermont, and
F. B. Thomas, who talked to the
Spanish war veterans. Mr.. Browns
address vas an eloquent and impress
sive one. He brought out the fact
that Vermont, was not only noted for
the number of The men she sent out,
but the quality. He enumerated her
achievements in the civil wal in order
of happening to illustrate this quail
ity. He spoke of Stannard with the
men of the Ninth regiment at Har-
per's Ferry, stating that he would
have held the Confederates at that
time had he been given the opportun-
ity by Col. Miles; later, the work of
the second brigade at Gettysburg the
effective work of Vermonters in the
protection of Washington, and last of
all told of the battle of Cedar Greek
the achievements of the first Vermont
brigade. In closing he said that u

ity for the enlightenment of the
world. We are a world power and
the stars and stripes are going to
carry the gospel everywhere to pro-
rect the helpless in the cause of lib
