AS we are on the steamship ques-
ton l would like to go on record as
saying that | am not at all in favor OF
the suspension of the coastwise ship
ping laws, the only good feature of It
being that the President of the United
States has the power to withdraw the
suspension whenever he sees fit.

FINE LIST Of
MOVING PICTURES
BONINE'S SHOW AT THE OPERA
HOUSE SATURDAY TO BE VERY
ATTRACTIVE.

The moving picture show which viii
be given Saturday night at the Opera
House promises to be very well attend
ed, as the sale of seats so far have
been very large and there is still a
few days remaining in which to buy
them.
BONNIE promises to give the best OF
his collection for the benefit of the
yacht Hawaii Among the films that
will be shown on Saturday night is a
view of the last Inaugural parade in
Washington at the time of President
ROosevelt's Inauguration, showing the
Army and Navy marching down Penn
sylvania avenue. In this picture can
be seen Lieut.. Albert Lyman of Hilo
mounted on a coal black charger at
the front of the procession.
Another film that will interest a
number of people, no doubt, will be
the launching from the yards of the
Fore River Shipbuilding Company OF
the new United States scout ship Sa-
lem, which is the first of her kind ever
built for the United States.
| A view of the National Cash Regis
ter Works at Dayton, Ohio, will alst
be shown, showing over four thousan
employees leaving the works at tn
noon hour.
The Pasadena Floral Parade is al
other film that will probably be yer
interesting to the owners of automo
biles, as they can get a number o
very valuable suggestions regarding
the recent styles in decorating cars.
With the other numbers on the pro
gram the audience ought to be abb
to spend a very enjoyable evening.

BROWN GETS
A LARGE FINE
FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS AND
COSTS FOR SELLING LIQUOR
WITHOUT LICENSE.

j. w. Brown, convicted at I o'clock
last evening by the jury in the Circuit
Court of selling liquor illegally was
this morning arraigned for sentence
before Judge Lindsay, who imposed a
fine of $500 and costs amounting to
SIS. In default of the fine the prison
err was sent to Jail to serve out the
amount at the rate of 81 per day.
Brown put up naTd fight. He ap-
pealed his case from the District Court
where he was fined 500 and costs, and
on first trial in the higher court got
off on a mistrial. Now, however. he
gets five times the fine of the District
Court, and Judge Lindsay threw in a
scorching lecture in the bargain. There
seemed to be no doubt from the evil
dence that the prisoner was tiagrantly
guilty, and Judge Lindsay didn't hest
tate to say so, Notwithstanding that
Brown has managed to get some
friends on the jury each time who
could not see the evidence against him
as clearly as others have.
When the sentence was pronounced
Joe Clark. an erstwhile partner of the
accused, burst into tears in the cour
room and left the building still sob
bling He was the only one besides the
prisoner who seemed to take the mat
ter very seriously. It was in Clark''
old place that Brown was convicted o
carrying on his Illicit business.

"THE MASCOT. f"

The first rehearsal Of "The Mascot
which was held last night, was prob
ably the most successful start that
any Of the amateur performances Civ
en- in Honolulu have ever had and If
the beginning can foretell the end, the
finished production promises to be q
mascot indeed. The chorus, which is
large one, soon took hold" of the
very catchy and pretty airs with which
the opera abounds and enthusiasm was
shown throughout, all from sopranos
to BASES attacking with a vim.

MOANA HOTEL
LICENSE CASE
BAR, WHICH HAS KEPT OPEN
so FAR, MAY ALSO BE CLOSED
NOW.

The Board of License Commission
ers will meet this afternoon at which
time the matter Of the Moana Hotel
liquor license will be taken up. It is
understood that the Inspector has been
called on for a report on the mat
ter, and some action will probably be
taken towards annulling the license
on the grounds that the hotel having
been closed, the bar has no right to be
maintained under an hotel license as
has been done. Whether or not the
Board viii permit the taking out of a
plain saloon license is also a matter
which will be discussed.

At THE ORPHEUM


Tonight's performance will be the
last one of The Squaw Man" at the
Orpheum Theater The play has prov
the entire season, and general opin-
ion is that it has been better fitted to
the company now playing here than
almost any play so far presented All
who have not yet seen this great dra-
ma should not fail to do so tonight.
Tomorrow night the famous farce
comedy, The Man from Mexico" is
to be presented This play relates the
adventures of Benjamin Fitzhugh,
who, sentenced to thirty days in jail
for participation in a harum-scarum
escapade, makes his wife believe he is
in Mexico. No funnier scene was ever
conceived than the second act, when
Fitzhugh is in Jail THE Man from
Mexico" is to be played on three sue
cessive nights.
For the matinee Saturday a bill OF
special interest to the children will be
presented, a new version of "Peck's
Bad Boy" Adults, however, will find
the play fully as interesting as will
the children, as unlike the old version
of the same play it combines with the
funny comedy scenes an interesting
dramatic story.
Friday nights performance of "The
Man from Mexico" will be given as a
benefit to the yacht club, and should
therefore be literally patronized, ev-
eryone in Honolulu being interested in
| the Yacht Clubs welfare.

PLEASANT RECREATION

There has been just enough moisture
on the road to Haleiwa to make driving
or motoring a pleasure. There is plenty
to see along the road; at intervals
bit OF old Hawaii and always the
sea and occasional views of the Waia-
nae mountains. At the end you have
the finest hotel in the territory with an
unequalled cuisine. A phone to Man
ager Bidgood will be sufficient to qua
rantee you special attention.

Home Made Treatment to Overcome
Rheumatism.

When ali eminent authority an
nounced in the Scranton pa
Times that he had found a new
way to treat that dread American
disease. Rheumatism, with just
common, everyday drugs found in
any drug store, the physicians
were slow indeed to attach much
Importance to his claims. This
was only a few months ago. To-
day nearly every newspaper in the
country, even the metropolitan
dailies, is announcing it and the
splendid results achieved. 1t is so
simple that any one car prepare it
at home at small cost. 1t is made
up as follows: Get from any good
prescription pharmacy Fluid Ex-
tract Dandelion, one-half ounce:
Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, 3
ounces. Mix by shaking in a bot
tie and take in teaspoonful doses
after each meal and at bedtime,
These are all simple ingredients,
making an absolutely harmless
home remedy at little cost.
Rheumatism. as every one knows,
is a symptom Of dcranged kidneys.
1t is a condition produced by the
failure of the kidneys to properly
filter or strain from the blood the

remains in the blood. decomposes
and forms about the joints and
muscles, causing the untold suffer-
ing and deformity Of rheumatism.
This prescription is said to be a
splendid healing, cleansing and
invigorating tonic to the kidneys,
and gives almost immediate relief
in all forms Of bladder and urinary
troubles and backnche. He also
warns people in a leading New
York paper against the discrim-
mate use of many patent medi-
icines.

The Spanish Peanut.

The Spanish peanut is a plant that
can follow either early crops of beard
less barley or Dwarf Essex rape, and
by this plan the soil can be kept busy
the year around, and at the same time
the productive capacity will be gradu-
ally increased, says a writer in South
ern Cultivator.
1t matters not how attractive the
price of cotton may be later on, the
farmer who is lured into neglecting
planting crops needed at home will be
sure to come out a loser. and diversifi-
cation ought to be the motto Of every
Individual. no matter IL some folk are
going around crying out that the south
cannot make too much cotton. 1t Is
best to take no chances.

RESTING tho Land,

Where an area Of land has been very
severely o%vergrazed in the past 1t will
he absolutely necessary that 1t be very
carefully pastured for the first two or
three years. The native grasses and
forage plants must have a chance to
regain their former vigor and to go to
seed. A very large number of stock
men advocate resting the land-that Is.
keeping all stock off for a period of
three or four years. That this remedy
will bring about the desired results
has been definitely proved in numer-
Gus i~nstances.-J. S. Cotton.

Forcing of Tomatoes.

In eastern Virginia the forcing of
tomatoes in greenhouses can be done
more cheaply than in the north, owing
to the Astounding sunshine in winter
and the absence Of the long, dark
spells common on the northern At
lantic coast. Fol-. this reason less fue.
will be needed. But the man who I'M
dertakes tomato forcing in any make
shift house will find that his expert
ence has cost him a good deal. In
fact, forcing under glass calls for a
high degree of skill on the part of the
gardener, remarks a writer In the
Southern Planter. But in the south
Atlantic coast country the tendency Is
in that direction. The use of steam in
the cloth covered lettuce frames III
North Carolina is one step toward real
winter work.
