If the comedy Sweet Dallas of
Texas" is any better than the one
presented at the theatre last night

be a winner. Mr.. SpOoner as Seth
Swap, the Yankee in Cuba gave the
best piece of character-comedy acting
that has been Witnessed on the local

roar at all times. Miss Spooner and
Mr.. Wallock were both cast in con
genial roles and made the best of
! their opportunities The dance by
Miss Spooner, assisted by Miss Hail
and Miss Hutson was very fine indeed.
Mr.. Wallock is physically suited 10 the
part of Almonte, the villain, and he
| played it to a finish and style seldom
seen outside OF high priced produc-
| zion. The specialties were all good
and from the number OF encores given
to each performer the audience was
more than satisfied. Tonight this com
pany will present Sweet Dallas of
Texas a play founded upon facts, the
incidents OF it which is made up hav-
ing actually occurred on Grey Eagle
ranch near Del Rio, Texas, Val Verde
county. This should make il doubly
interesting to Texas people The
play is consistent and interesting
from start to finish The Palestine
Herald says: Sweet Dallas of Tex
as is unique title for a unique play.
IL is a play which commands a high
royalty from it's author The Spooner.
Wallock Stock Co. have secured the
exclusive rights to this play for the
South. for the next two seasons, so
If you want to see it at popular pri.
ces. now is your chance. The play

tention to detail in the matter of act
ing and costuming which has charac.
terized their other productions, and
the stage settings will be all that
could be desired by the most critical
observer"
A compelte change of specialties
will be given tonight, comprising I'D.

Here is where Peterson has his chance
for go at that fellow Kyle Whitney.
If lie can make good against Sullivan
tonight, he is in direct line for re
turn with the colored marvel, and not
only that, but he can go back to the
Coast and actually demand it.
That is one thing that is going to
make the go tonight hummer. Both
men have everything to gain by win
ming and everything to lose if things
go against them.
1t will, without doubt, be the clever
es5 and fastest bout in the heavier
weights that has ever been seen in Ho-
nolulu. 1t should, in fact, be an en-
larged edition of the ReiliySmith go
that made such hit with the fans here
two weeks ago. 1t may not, perhaps,
be quise so open, but the long range
work of both men will give the specta-
tors something to wonder at when they
get started.

clar point of view, certainly upholds
the reputation of his country.
Nelson is also very powerfully built,
but is much taller than his opponent.
They are both tyros ard viii rely on
the boring in and getting at the other
fellow tactics that always make good
go. Neither one is clever, although
Nelson has a trife more experience
than his opponent. One thing is GER
tain and that is that neither one of
them has the slightest shade of yellow
in his makeup and would thrive on a
diet of solar plexus punches for break
fast and right uppercuts for dinner.
viii Set Another Mark.
1t is said that the last show was the
best ever seen in Honolulu, but this one
looks as though it would set another
mark. If the fans want 60 see hard
hitting and rough and tumble work,
they have the two preliminaries, and if
they want to see cleverness, ring-gen-
eralship aud two men with a. punch in
either hand, looking for the opening,
they will surely see that in the main
event.
AS already stated in these columns,
Mike Patton will referee the bout. and
may be depended on to give the right
decision should the go last to the limit
Of fifteen rounds. Mike may also be
third man. in the second preliminary,
while some. sporting authority, agree
axle to both men, will act for the first
event.
Having learned lesson from the last
time most of the ringsiders have got in
early with their orders for seats. The
advance sale has been unusually large,
and those who want to choose their
places would do well to get round early
today. The left ringside seats bave
been raised on tiers, and these will pro
vide an excellent view of the ring from
every row. Outside of the ringside
there is little choice of location, as
there is a good view from all parts OF
the house.

lists are already getting busy. The ris-

good effects and, if you want to find
somebody who is going into the race,
look for some youth with rudy sun
burned cuntenance and step as
springy and light as-well, anything
that has light and springy step. Deer
would be pretty good, so let it go at
