GOOD COMEDY
COMPANY ARRIVES

On Tuesday next the Armstrong s.
Verne comedy company will open a
three-days' engagement at the Opera
House. Performances will be given on
Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday
nights. with a Saturday matinee. A
change of program will be made at
each performance and some excellent
entertainment is promised.
The company is said to be a remark
ably strong one. Tom Armstrong, the
comedian, is a song writer and singer
of no mean ability and some of his
original compositions are numbered
among the most popular of present day
songs. One of the most interesting
comedy features which will be offered
is Colonel Ketchup, clever effort from
Armstrong; pen.
Priscilla Verne is remarkably
clever singer, mimic and dancer, if re-
port speaks truly, and will doubtless
make a hit with Honolulu audiences.
Alf. Verne is a baritone sOloist of
marked ability and the song and dance
work of Joe Woodward has won much
favorable comment in times past.
Seats will go on sale at the store of
the Bergstrom Music Company tomor-
row morning.

The man in the consulate advised
me to see Msgr. O'Connell who had
spent much time in Boston and was up
in the ways of American photographers
and historians. This distinguished
gentleman took me under his wing as

[ mentioned my quest and he met me
fairly. Said he would do what he

me an introduction to man who had
charge of the lower library in the
Vatican and as luck had it this man
owned kodak that would not respond
to the push-the- button business. I put
in a whole day fixing that machine and
instructing him how to work it.

as if it were a watch charm and he

roof and through the historic galleries

from the roof of that stately pile he

was his reputation thumbed by the

First Moving Pictures.-''The cine
photograph had been invented by Ed
son and placed on the market, the pic
lures being recorded on a cylinder and
placed on a machine within a closed
box AS Edison had it, but one person
could see motion picture at time
and they were small ones. Of course
the affair was a tremendous success.
Unfortunately the inventor con-
fined himself to that one method and
with no desire to spread out. In time
the cinemetograph reached Paris and
there the ingenious Frenchman saw be-
yond his hat brim. He found way of
charging these same pictures and pro-
ducing them on screen so that instead
of one person at ten confines per peep,
a thousand could see it at the same
time at no more expense to the manage
ment. Under a dozen different names
the same effect has been obtained and
fortunes have been made by the manu-
facturers of the films. ~
Worked and Suggested.-Mr. BONNIE
had an opportunity to work in the
factory of one of the most celebrated
of the film makers in Paris and he has
had several offers since to take similar
positions around the country. He
worked for the Edison company and
gained knowledge, as well as imparting
it, for his ideas were recognized as
good ones.
''While I was with the Edison com
pany,' continued Bonine ga man came
20 the factory with a plan to construct
q camera that would make a picture
about three by four in size. He had
q scheme to take this to Alaska, just

HOLDS MAkINO'S
CLERK To TRIAL
lis BOND is FIXED AT $1,000
1ashiguchi Accused of HAVING
Obscene Postcards in His
Possession.
lis BOND IS FIXED AT $1,000

Hashiguchi, a clerk in Maxine g drug
store, was held yesterday morning by
United States Commissioner George A.
Davis for trial at the April term of
the Federal court on the charge of
having in his possession obscene postal
cards for exhibition or sale.
Hashiguehi s arrest followed some
statements he made Friday before the
grand jury. AT the conclusion of his
testimony and as he walked out of the
grand jury room, he was arrested by
the United States Marshal at the in.
stance of United States District Attor.
ney Breckons.
The arrest is in consequence of the
seizure by Deputy High Sheriff Billy
Woods of bunch of postal cards found
In the safe in Maxine s drug store. 1t
was expected that Maxine would be
indicted by the grand jury for having
IN his possession these postal cards,
but the clerk went before the grand
jury and, according to the testimony
of Editor Sheba, who was acting as
interpreter, swore that he alone was
responsible for the cards. That was the
reason for his arrest.
Attorney Lightfoot appeared to de.
fend the prisoner. A question arose
as to whether the postcards were really
obscene or not. Breckons threw them
down in front of the Commissioner and
asked him to take them to the window
and look at them against the light Mr..
Davis did so, and blnshed. He re-
turned to his seat and announced that
the evidence seemed to him amply suf.
ficient to warrant him holding the pris-
oner to answer, and he accordingly
committed Hashiguchi to the April
term of court, under bonds fixed at
$1,000.
Z At the conclusion of the hearing.
United States District Attorney Breck-
ons produced some other postal cards
and a Spanish illustrated book which
he said had been found in Maxine IS
place of business. The Commissioner
took look at these and gasped. They
were by all odds the most filthy. OBJ
scene pictures that were ever publish
ed. Mr.. Breekons stated that he did
not consider it necessary to introduce
them in evidence. as he thought those
shown during the hearing were bad
enough.

Shot the Big Ditch.-Mr. Bonine was
at that time with the Mutoscope and
Biograph Company and on his return
to the United States he joined forces
with the National Cash Register Co,
and looked after the Photographic end
of the business. Then he went back
to the Edison company any by 1t was
sent to Panama where he made pictures
of the big ditch under directions of
the United States authorities. Some of
these pictures have been shown here
and Others will be in the sweet mahOpe.
They are as interesting as new baby
and Mr. Bonine will throw them on the
screen at his theater so that when the
audience leaves they viii feel as
though they had been to the spot and
filled themselves with enthusiasm over
the tremendous undertaking.
All in the Making.-''T There is lot
in the making of motion pictures" said
Mr.. BONNIE, ga lot more than the pass
ing glance conveys. AS the eonfed-
crates said about General Grant when
he declared he would eat his Fourth
of July dinner in the besieged city,
Catch the rabbit before You eat it.
Incidentally / would remark that he
caught the rabbit and ate his dinner

developing and printing 600 feet of
film is a revelation.
The frst operation is the making of
the exposures in the camera. On every
inch of film sixteen separate and in.
dividual pictures are made. Thus. on
a 4oo-foot strip of film, there are 64o0
pictures, each perfect negative.
In the darkroom this film is taken
from the camera and wound spring
fashion, on frame, SO arranged that
in no part of the spiral can two see,
tions of the film come together This
frame is then placed in the developer
until the trained eve of the workman
tells him that sufficient density has
been secured. Next the film. still on
the frame, is washed aad rinsed, fixed
and washed.
When the washing is complete the
film is unwound from the rack and re-
wound on a great drum, care being
taken that it shall not overlap at any
place.
Must Be Printed.
When the film is dry it is stripped
from the drum and all is in readiness
for the next operation, that of print
ing. The film made in the camera is,
of course, a negative, so print must
be made Just as of any other picture.
But the completed print must be on a
continuous film roll hundreds of feet
in length. Manifestedly it is impossi-
bic to think of printing by ordinary
photographic methods.
The difficulty is solved by the use
of printing machine which, in many
particulars, is replica of the camera
in which the exposure is made and of
the machine in which the picture is
shown.
Negative film and unexposed posi-
tive film are threaded, face to face,
bling the front of projecting lantern.
In the box to which this mechanism
is attached is lamp, and in the front
is tiny window. Over the window is
a little shutter and as negative and
positive film are passed over the win
dow, by the mechanism, the shutter
opens and closes, allowing the light
to pass through at regular intervals.
The machine is so adjusted that the
shutter opens every time that COM
plete picture is in front of the window.
The winding apparatus works with a
slight jerk, with leaves each complete
picture over the window for an in
finitesimal space of time.
After the entire roll has been ex-
posed the same procedure is followed
ont as in the case of the negative and
the film is ready to be wound on a
reel and exposed in the camera.

The picture is intended for BONNIE,
the motion picture man. BONNIE, of
fThe Bonine," the prettiest little
theater in Honolulu and one in which
good pictures of a Photographic nature
are to be shown ever and always. If
YOU have never seen him look nearly
as the picture shows him, ask him to
remove his hat.
In a way he is a genius and the way
points te the camera and his ex-
pRrience was gained in many points of
tie earth Officially and otherwise Mr..
Bonnie has visited the great capitals
of Europe and his "reminiscences are
interesting.
Curiously enough his introduction to
the motion picture side of photogra-
pher came to him while he was chasing
1 subjects in the old world Under en-
gagement to Henry T. Coates, the well
known book publisher, he was dispatch
ed to Europe to secure pictures OF
various sections usually covered by
ministers and teachers during the sum
mer months so that when a wish was
expressed for an illustrated lecture on
any section Of Europe. Coates could be
there with the goods. BONNIE was ex-
peeted to get pictures whether the
country would stand for it or not.
Baedeker was his constant companion
and handy book of instruction which
guaranteed to teach him any old Ian
guage in five weeks was never out of
his reach.
One of the most popular subjects was
the Riviera and in it the trip from
Marseilles 10 Genoa was faithfully
described. BONNIE went through the
country getting the pictures and the
lecturers afterward. it was said, went
though the people.
