FATHER ULRICHs is DOING
WELL WITH HIS BAINTllNG

Father Ulrich, priest, organist and
singer of the Catholic cathedral, he of
the rotund form and the smile that
never comes off, would hardly be known
by his hosts of friends should he return
to Honolulu from, Germany. ! When the
good father left the Islands for treat
ment of his eyes, he looked like an
alderman in frock coat, and weighed
about 260 pounds.
''The Father has lost forty seven
pounds, but he still has 2lO pounds, {"
remarked Bishop Libert yesterday.
"But it is pilikia with him, continued
the Bishop; "he can only eat few
grammes of dry bread with a little tea
each morning, and has had to eliminate
custards, buildings, steaks and sugary

things and lager beer. But the worst
came when the physician said he would
have to give up smoking. Oh, he went
right up in the air then, but he had to
do it."
:. Father Ulrich certainly was smoker.
He smoked all day. Tobacco was
really his one choice luxury, but he has
given up all the creature comforts and
is leading about as simple and rigid a
life as possible. Furthermore, his eye
sight is improving, but he will not re-
tnrn here until his eyes are really
strong Bishop Libert believes it bet
ter for him to remain abroad for a
long time and then come back well,
rather than hurry back and stand the
chance of making another trip to

Rostand's New Play.

Edmond Rostand is writing a dramal
which will be put on the stage early
next season in which moving pictures
will play prominent part. The name
of the play has not been determined
upon, but it will be an admixture of
mythology ana up.to-date mechanics.
In the first scene Diana and large
following are disturbed at play by the
arrival of a large touring car. They
scamper into the woods and see O
young man and young woman alight-
Morpheus comes and puts them to
sleep, so that Vulcan may examine the
machine. He takes it apart, but cam
not restore the dismembered adtomo-
bile. The Morpheus spell is removed
and the man quickly repairs the ma
chine, and with Eros as chauffeur
speeds away toward the horizon. While
all this is represented in moving pic
lures the poem is being recited byAthe
various characters. Gabrielle 'Anllun-
zio is engaged on a similar work.
