THE MAN Of THE HOUR
WELL WORTH SEEING

| There We're not many present at the
first presentation of The Man of the
Hour last night at the Opera House.
There should be a crowded house for
| the second presentation on Thursday
evening. The work of the PLAYERS de-
serve this, the performance being one
Of the best amateur shows of its kind
ever given in the city and better by
ali odds than a good many of the
productions of some of the professional
companies which appear here. There
was not much applause either through
any of the four acts nor follow ing
them, but the attention of the audience
was tense at all times and during the
best scenes, when the climax had been
reached, the audience was too inter
ested in the movement of the story to
remember to applaud. This was ap-
parent from the front but less SO to
those on the stage who thought the
audience a cold one. This was far
from the case, however.
With so many clever amateurs in the
cast it would be difficult to select any
one for especial mention. A. E. Muir
ply, as Richard Horrigan, the political
boss, had part difficult enough to
bring out the best that was in him.
while w. D. Adams, as His Honor"
was as strong and we'll sustained a
character as has been presented here
The scene at the close of the second
act, with the Boss and the Mayor in
an open declaration of war, was partic-
ularly well acted. the second strongest
scene of the play being also shared by
Mr.. Adams, with him on the stage
being Mrs McLennan, who played the
part of Mrs. Bennett, the Mayors
mother, with sympathy and feeling
G. c. Potter also had a big share
in the acting, his playing of this Irish
alderman bringing that part up TO one
of the principals.
Miss Nellie McLain, who took the
lead among the ladies of the cast,
looked decided we'll and carried
through her part with a dash that won
recognition. Mrs. NJ. H. Webb was I'M
able to do justice to herself, a severe
cold preventing her from speaking
clearly. This it is hoped will have
passed off by Thursday, when she can
appear to better advantage.
Others in the play were good. w. L.
Warren always is and it has never
been found necessary to praise ] A.
Wilder, whose work has always spok
en- for itself Mr.. Wilder appeared en-
barrassed last night, if such a thing can
be possible, due to the fact that he
was at liberty through sufferance and
under charge and escort of a bailiff
of the court, who lurked behind the
scenes and who started towards his
ward every time the word bribery
was whispered on the stage, which was
frequently. Mr.. Wilder is juror and
had been locked up for the night with
the rest of the good men and true,
being released for the play only after
much hard work on his behalf and
considerable wire pulling.
L. S. CONFESS doubled and did well in
two minor roles.

MARINE

The fine American schooner Geo Z.

day after good run of A days with a
large cargo of coal for T. H. Davies &
Co. for Eleele. Captain Birkholm re-
ports an uneventful voyage with fine
weather nearly all the way. The Bill
| lings is one Of the largest fve-masted
schooners ever at this port, her tonnage
being a little over eleven hundred She
sailed for Eleele last evening about
shutdown, after entering at the custom
house here.
The departure OF Colonel Sam john
son for Hilo yesterday was quite the
event on the waterfront, and there
must have been several hundred people
at the Mauna kea to see the popular
citizen off for his new sphere of useful
ness in the forests of Puma and Olaa.
Sam was certainly loaded down with the
leis and alohas OF his army of admirers,
and had to make several trips up the
gangway to deposit his wreaths and re-
turn for more. The local "pollies
were all in evidence, seemingly to make
sure that Sam had gone. Some looked
glad to think of the good luck that had
fallen to the old Road Supervisor;
others looked sorry, as if they would
miss the genial smile and CHEEKY way
of their good boss.
The Mauna Kea and the Mauna Loa,
the two big passenger boats leaving at
noon yesterday, were both wen filed
with passengers. Formerly, when it was
nip and tuck between the old kinau
and the Mauna Loa, the balance of the
trade IN the passenger business was al
ways in FAVOR OF the Mauna Loa when
the two boats left together. Now it is
different, and the old boat played sec
ond fiddle to her larger and faster rival
The Mauna Loa still has her stanch ad-
herents, but they are of the kind who
are blind and deaf to everything said
or done that does not boom their old
favorite.
Captain Thompson, of the steamer
Hall, was in command of the Mauna
Loa yesterday when she left port. 1t
is Captain Simerson 3 turn for a watch
below, and he will enjoy a well-earned
two weeks vacation, remaining in this
city for the time.
