THE MOVING
PICTURE FAD
Theater Managers Prefer the
French Films to All
Others.

Stewart TAFT, at one time a proprie-
tor of the Empire moving picture thea,
ter, has successfully launched his NOV
ing picture business in Manila. He has
fine location and the first picture was
to have been the Passion Play This
was expected to prove winner, the
opinion of the promoters being that tie
Filipinos would flock to see the Holy
Land presentations.
Stewart 5 brother, Edwin. who is now
proprietor of the Empire, has arranged
with the Coast moving picture dealers,
to buy films outright and after using
them here. pick out the very best and
forward them on to Manila. Owing
to the distance Manila is from the
Coast and the risks in transportation,
the films have to be bought outright,
and the whole venture viii therefore
be expensive to both the Taits.
Honolulu theaters, as far as films are
concerned, has to depend upon the San
Francisco dealers for the local supply,
and so they come, good and Indifferent.
Edwin Trait, however, has requested
that he be furnished only the best pie
lures, and has expressed a preference
IoF the french pictures WHICH are con-
sidered the best on the market He
also asks for the best comedy pictures.
In order that children as well as adults
may learn something OF the world, he
asks also for pictures that are instrHc-
tive. Among these are pictures of for.
eign countries and others showing vari-
Gus industries. Among those recently
shown was one showing how loaf Of
bread is made, from the time the soil
is titled in France, through the harvest
ing processes to the day the dough is
showed into the old-fashioned oven. a
fine one to be exhibited next week is
fire drill in Madrid, Spain, said to
be very spectacular. Others have shown
scenes in Glasgow, London, Hongkong.
The famous Horse Guards of London
charging post was one of the best.

Mai.-Gen. 90. Towards Life and Ex-
periences Among Our Hostile Indians

white men, but of Indians as well, and
! of his remarkable campaigns against
Chief Joseph, Chief Moses, Chief Lot
and others-all able Indians; he gives
| the true story of the Indian princess
Sarah Winnemucca and the thrilling
part she took in his campaigns; here.
too, may be found in detail the story
of the massacre of DR.. Marcus Whit
man, his bride, and nearly all who com
posed that devoted band Of mission
aries.
1t was only after urgent solicita-
ton of some of the most distinguished
men and women Of our times. that
General Howard finally consented to
write this book. The kindly Christian
spirit of its author pervades it from
the first page to the last. Not one OBJ
jectionable word or suggestion can be
found in it. 1t is a book to be read
aloU4 IN the family circle by old and
young. It contains fine portrait of
the General, engraved from a special
photograph, showing the old warrior IN
pinned across his decorated breast +;
and a large number Of superb full
page engravings, many Of them from
original photographs made by govern
ment officials on scientific expeditions,
showing the Indians in their absolute
~ wild state and amid their native
surroundings. It also contains a mag
nifeent series Of fulI-page Chrome
Lithograph plates printed in ten coiors
showing in fac-simile MANY remarkable
objects of great interest and curios-
ity. One can linger a long time over
these beautiful plates and illustrations,
and though he turns from each with
regret he is pretty sure to find the
next one of still more absorbing in
terest.
General Howard is the last surviv-
ing great Federal commander Of the
Civil War In this book he tells Of
his bovhood and early home. his strug-
giles for an education, his life at West
Point. his marriage. and the breaking
mp Of his household when the call 10
duty came. In the Civil War he was
in forty-six battles. was twice wound
ed at Fair Oaks. where he had two
horses shot under him and lost his
right arm. He neither drank, smoked.
nor swore. and was ever as ready to
lead in prayer meeting as in battle.
General Howard has passed three
score years and ten. The smoke Of
his battles has died away; the gar
