At THE ORPHEUM

Tonight will witness the first pro-
duction here of The Squaw Man"
which promises to be the big treat
of the dramatic season. Manager
Cooley of the Orpheum has had the
play in his repertoire all season and
it has never failed to please all who
have seen it. Stormy weather should
keep no one away from the Orpheum
tonight.
The Squaw Man is in a prologue
and three acts. The prologue opens
in Boston at the home of Mrs. Ros-
leigh, where society reception is in
progress. The scenes of the play pro-
per are laid in the Texas Panhandle,
and while several of the characters in
the prologue participate, there are a
number OF rough frOntiersmen, typl-
cal of the great West. pleasing
element of comedy runs through the
play, while no drama of recent years
has been stronger in pathos. The
play will be presented for three nights
and at the Wednesday matinee.
Thursday night The Man from Me
Xico," one of the funniest farces ever
written, will be played, continuing FOR
the balance of the week. Saturday
afternoon, however, Manager Cooley
will present a special children's matt
nee, the bill being the universal fav'
orite, "Peck's Bad Boy

against the United States Government.
Captain Kokeritz had not been made
aware of the fact that the front range
light had been shifted to a temporary
position and he stated when asked on
the day of going aground, as to the
cause of striking, that there was no
light on the dismantled base Of the old
lighthouse and he took the new light
for the old, and moved accordingly,
declaring that there should have been
a light on the site of the old light
where there was reef and the still
standing foundations of the old light.

that there was no obligation, on the
part of the L. S. Engineers or the
Lighthouse bureau VI lle JdDdueSt

/ the old light site. to place a light on
the ruins, but that the establishment
of the new light and the publication OF

navigators, and if navigators were not
acquainted with the change no respon-

steps if necessary, under the Liliha
decision, to get the improved service.
A committee Of property owners Of
Kaimulli called on Governor Frear
this morning and asked that he defer
action on the matter of approving the
schedule Of the twenty-minute service
on the Hotel street line, as adopted by
the Rapid Transit Company, and sent
to him for his approval, until after the
meeting of the Kaimuii and Waialae
citizens to be held tonight.
The Governor declines to talk about
the street railway middle, which has
now been thrown into his hands by
the action Of the company in refer
ring the matter of the schedule of the
Hotel street line, claiming that under
a clause of its charter the Governors
approval is necessary, and that the de-
cision of the Supreme Court does not
have to do with the Roadway on which
cars are run on any particular line.
The committee which called on the
Governor was composed of Messrs.
Thayer, Minton and Cox. 1t is believ-
ed by some of the Kaimuki residents
that the Company is planning to have
the matter taken into the United
States courts. by involving the Gov
ernor in It. An appeal may be taken
to Washington from his rulings.

tation bitches
Some years ago the McBryde Sugar
Company constructed a ditch up on the
short cut to bring some of the water
running down one of the gulchos TO its
land. No opposition was encountered
to the work, and the plantation was i'm
the possession Of so much the more
good mountain water
But tempora mutantur, of nos mu-
tamW in illisl Koloa Sugar Company.
few weeks ago remembered the dig
ging of the ditch and felt sure "a mis-
take had been made at the time as it
was convinced the water belonged TO
Koloa few men were therefore
sent up to divert it back into the pro-
per channel. The McBryde people didn't
say a thing, but the first thing Koloa
knew the water was again trirkling
over toward the other fellow
This was rather annoying TO the
Kooa interests, so when the NcBryde
people went home for a nights rest
there was a force at work constructing
dam that would prevent any water
from running towards the Laval side
but would force the stream down over
the Koloa lands. The builders had a
suspicion that their opponents wouldn't
let the structure alone so they sQuatted
down on the dam, fifty men strong to
prevent the other side from putting a
few sticks of dynamite in the dirt and
making it look worse than the Nuuanu
structure and not worth much more.
In time the McBryde5 arrived but
found the enemy in possession Of the
Notifications. They felt very much
like taking the breastwork by storm,
but were restrained from doing so by
the legal aspect of the matter. It was
of course unavoidable that a warm
feeling on the subject should be pre-
valent among the forces on both sides
and that some still hotter expressions
of the feeling should take place in
fact things got to be so sCorching over
in the district that the sheriff thought
it best to take hand in the matter or
rather be ready to do 50. He went
over there personally and investigated
the situation and found it so unpromis-
ing that he telephoned to his deputies
at Lihue and Waimea to send over
three police officers each to Koloa to
be in readiness in case of need.
There the matter stands On the
dam fifty Japanese are earning an easy
| dollar a day by sitting on it to hold it
! down. The weather is cold up in those
attitudes so they keep themselves warm
with an occasional drink of sake, and
generally feel happy and satisfied with
their lot. Hidden in the middle dis
lance is another force of Orientals
watching for the chance that their OPP
ponents are sure to give them some
day, equally patient and equally con-
tented. In the background are the con-
solidated police forces, ready to keep
peace by force, and Willing the time
away with a friendly game of Pedro.

Former Attorney General of Ohio Shows Up Insinceritty of Taft in His Atttack Upon Senator Foraker of Ohio.

STEPPED INTO HOLE
 WHEN RACE WAS WON
So All the Bets Between Two Good Sports Were
 Called Off.

DOUGLAS, Sept. 29.-( Special v
 One of the most exciting sporting events which has occurred in this city for some time took place when Captain Greit and Harry Van Treese covered one hundred yards on the smooth track running along the Country Club grounds in remarkable time Sunday night
 It seems that tue captain became well praeticed during the Boer war and at that time could cover short space in mighty fast time. Van Treese, however, was pretty swift some years ago and believed that he could trim the veteran of the South African war. Several wagers of large denol tina tions were suggested and it was decid- ed to select the ground in foreign ter ritory and Agua Prieta was cnosen, but after maturer consideration it was the American flag.
 An automobile was loaded with en- thusiastie spectators and headed for the Country Club ground. among them being the captain and Van Treese. The automobile was planted right in the middle of the road so that the head. light could give sufficient light for the track.
 When they lined up for the tart lit was hard for the starter to hold them on the mark til the word was given. They got off in good shape and came down the track at tremen- dous speed. In fact, they resembled somewhat charge of cavalry as they both wore heavy boots which had a strange rattle. The captain led beau tifully and he thought for a while that Van Treese was not coming, and as he looked back to see where he lost him. the captain stepped into hole and twisted his leg badly. It was thought for a while that he had met a serious accident, but it was tound on careful examination that he suf- fered only bad sprain. All bets were called of
