hRMORY PLAN
FINDS FAVOR
Merchants Association Hears
Report of Special
Committee.

That the National Guard of Hawaii
requires an armory, and requires it I'M
mediately, was the sentiment expressed
yesterday afternoon at the meeting of
the Merchants Association, called for
the purpose of listening to the report
prepared by the special committee ap-
pointed TO look into the matter.
In its report, the committee expressed
the belief that the erection of a suit
able armory building would result in
bringing into the militia service large
number of young men of a class that
at present is not attracted to the Ma
tiOnal Guard.
The committee reported that about
$4,000 will be needed to erect the right
sort of building.
In the discussion which followed, the
gist of the talk was regarding ways
and means. there being no opposition to
the armory plan itself. Finally the
matter was referred to the legislative
committee. with instructions to have
the report of the special committee
printed and brought to the attention
of the people at large. 1t is especially
desired to have the hold-over commit
tee of the Senate look into the matter.
County Government Extravagant.
James Wakefield of Theo. H. Davies
& Co. did not believe that the burden
of providing money for a structure
such as is recommended should fall up
on the merchants. He said that the
Territory is well able to supply the
money, and urged that the extravagant
administration of territorial and coun-
ty governments combined result in the

Silence of Throng Quitting the
Newark a Tribute to Tell
ing Play.

Y Asst night, at the Newark Theatre,
at the close of the performance
of The Servant in the House,
an unusual thing happened. Instead of
beginning to chatter merrily of the play
1t had just witnessed, the audience filed
out slowly and silently. 1t wanted time
to think, n to adjust it's thoughts.
Even the sweet young thing who usual
ly clutches her escorts arm the min
ute the curtain falls and exclaims,
1t was just too lovely" permitted him
to hold her o a without remark.
The Servant in the House" is full of
magnetic power. 1t draws you up over
the footlights right into it's spirit and
meaning. You find yourself straining
every nerve to see and heal all, with an
attention that never waivers 1t is a
play u of significance, whose real
meaning is revealed through suggestion.
The servant Manson is the o of
Man himself. and the other characters
are the people of the earth. The church
of the play is a symbol of the religion
of the modern world. and the cesspool
beneath it represents the seffshness and
hypocrisy it serves to cloak, while the
crumbling foundations signify the fra
gility, unworthiness and lack of strength
of the whole structure. The whole
teaches a strong spiritual lesson with
out preaching. making people realize
their shortcomings without feeling re-
sentiment toward hat which enlight-
ened them, which is the usual effect of
sermons, particularly those hat reach
home.
The entire action of the play occupies
a few hours of a summer morning in
an English country vicarage. The vicar
has been planning and praying and
hoping for a way to restore his church
which is a crumbling ruin, to its for
mel glory. Just when hope had ebbed
away he received a letter from a
brother whom he had not seen OF
heard of in many years. This brother
is now the World-famous Bishop OF
Benares, of India. His letter announced
that he will be at the vicarage this
morning, to help the project of restor-
ing the church in what way he can.
The Wears wife, who, fifteen years be-
fore, has run away from home to
marry the vicar, upon hearing of this
has written to her own brother, the
Lulu blSlIOp u LdItdSllIt, kilOWlIlS
that he will come when he hears that
the Bishop of Benares is expected. The
scene opens upon the morning when
both bishops are expected.
Living with the vicar is his niece,
Mary, whom he has brought up since
her father, another brother and a
scapegrace, CAV her to him many years
before. Manson, the new butler, has
just entered upon his duties. The first
big moment of the play comes when
Mary, after chattering to him of hel
illustrious uncle. suddenly looks up
startled, and exclaims. WHO are you?''
Manson replies. lifting one hand inn
~pressively, Il am the servant in this
house"
Later, while Manson is arranging the
table, Mary's father. bitter cynic, and
one-time drunkard, enters, and in a
loud voice demands to see his daugh-
ter. His brother, the vicar, who in all

SELMA HERMAN ENACTS THE
WRONGED HEROINE AT BLANEY'S.

"A Bad Mans Wife," which opened a
weeks engagement at Blaney's Theatre
yesterday, proved to be a much more
consistent n entertaining melodrama
than the average of it's class. All of
the important roles were well taken
care of.
The story deals with the sufferings of
an honest woman through the treachery
of another. Miss Selma Herman, as
Ruth Stanhope, the heroine, displayed
The abilities which hav made her one
of the rnost popular stars in the melo-
dramatic houses. Miss Jessie Bea11
made much bright comedy as a girl
with stage aspirations.
The principal male role was carefully
and s~atisfyingly played by Robert
Vaughan, whom Newarkers will re-
member as the Governor in the Blaney
production of "The Governor and the
Boss" which played here a season on
two ago.
