ADJUSTMENTS
Another Big Hit.

There was larger attendance to
greet the Armstrong and Verne COM
ibination at the Opera House last night
than on Tuesday night when they made
their initial bow to a Honolulu audi
ence. The program was change from
the first one and quite as enjoyable.
Armstrong made more friends than ever
by his clever singing and dancing and
Miss Verne made lavish display of
gowns Her acts with Mr.. Armstrong
were loudly applauded. Verne and
Verne in "Just little Vaudeville"
made a good impression on the audi
ence AS dancers they are certainly
wonders and their songs put them up
among the headliners among the vaude-
vile artists of Australia and America.
Honolulu has not seen half enough of
the Armstrong and Verne combination
and it viii not have Seen enough even
after their last appearance which
takes place on Saturday night. There
will be a grand matinee for ladies and
children on Saturday afternoon when
an entirely new bill will be presented
thing quite unusual will be in an act
by Armstrong and Verne. Seats are
on sale at the Bergstrom music store.
Park Theater.
After few days vacation the Mel
notte sisters will return to the Park
theater and sing some very new songs.
There win be a good program tonight
to meet the usual big crowd which at
tends this theater. 1t will be win
ner. One of the films shown is called
"Caught on the Cliffs, - showing beau
tiful scenery and full of dramatic sit
uations. The film is one of the best
and most interesting that has been
seen here in a long time. The Park
is growing in popularity because it is
in the open and the warm weather
makes no difference to the people who
90. The shed is a thorough protection
in inclement weather. 1t is well to
add here that the comedy films as well
as the others shown at the Park are
very funny and they appeal particular
" to the ladies. There will be bunch
of good ones tonight.
The Empire.
Tomorrow night will mark the last
appearance of Wallace and Way, the
clever professionals at this favorite
theater. They have won popularity
! with the Honolulu people and there is
much regret over the announcement of
| their intended departure. The films to-
night will be, as feature, the great
| Marathon race which was pulled off in
| England By way of comparison with
/ the local pictures and races this is ex-
! tremely interesting. There is nothing
| but action in the film which shows the
great Dorando and the rest of the bunch
starting from Windsor Castle. 1t shows
| Dorando being helped over the line and
| HAYES coming in a winner. ga War
| time Sweetheart is another good pic
| ture showing woman s love in the stir
ring days Of the rebellion. There will
| be two comedies.
Waverley Dance.
The attendance at the Waverlev
| dancing sessions seems not TO diminish
in the least. And the people who 90
are from the class that knows what
it is to have good music for dancing.
The Hawaiian Quintet Club, of which
Sam K. Nainoa is leader. furnishes the
music for these dances and there is
none better here. Perfect time is kept
by the musicians and perfect order BY
| those who go to the WaverIey. 1t has
| got TO be a regular thing with some
Of the younger set to form parties Of
eight and ten and 90 there for a dance
| after the motion pictures have tired
| them out. The expense is so small
that many are induced to take part
for an hour before going home.
The Coons in HiIo.
Joe Cohen received letters from Hilc
yesterday telling Of the great successes
met by the Wise and Milton company
in that city. They were greeted BY
a large audience on the first night and
a still larger one on the second. The
third night there was a drop of a few
dollars and on Saturday night the re
ceipts marked new record for theatri
Gals in Hilo. There was more money
in the house that night than on any
night of the company 5 engagement
here. The company win probably re
turn to Honolulu within a week or ter
days.
