NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

Editor Evening Bulletins:
On behalf of the Honolulu Cricket
Club permit me-. TO compliment the
Rul ct n upon the excellent write
up of last Thursdays cricket match.
The scorer, II he is to keep his bowl
ing analysis cOnscientiously, has his
hands full enough as 1t is. Hereto
fore, in Honolulu, 1t has generally
devolved upon me to write the press
l reports of the matches also, but the
advent Of your able representative,
Mr.. Stevenson, has relieved me of
this added duty. He has forgotten
more about cricket than ever knew.
A large bundle of today's b Il g.
tin, which apprehend will contain
an account of Saturdays return
match, will be mailed to the officers
of the departing warships, who great
ly appreciate this courtesy and enter

man DRINKS
POISON and EXPIRES

J. Riedel ended his life by taking
dose of carbolic acid last night. lie
had been suffering from nervous pros
tration for some time and at last put
an end to his worries. Riedel arrived
from the mainland some time ago and
endeavored to interest local capital
in a traction company to be carried
on in Oakland, California.
The unfortunate man started to
write several letters to his wife, but
never got beyond the introduction
Finally he wrote his wife's name and
address and left 1t on table.
Sheriff Jarrett this morning cabled
Mrs. Riedel at Los Palms" Milwau-
kee. TO the effect that her husband
was dead. Deputy SherIif Rose has
empaneled jury and the inquest
will be held today. The following
are the Jurors: Manuel Leal, Manuel
Phillips. William McShane, John
Gouyeia. l.. Heine, and Murphy Ar
villa. U....r....
The bottle from which Riedel

THE LADY SLAVEY"
The PLAY TONIGHT

Tonight, the bill at the Opera
House will be the famous musical
comedy success, The Lady Slavey,"
which will be shown here for the
first time by the Lilliputians. This
play Is peculiarly adapted to the
talents of the youngsters, and they
may be expected to give a very SUI
perior performance.
But no one is very particular now
adays Just what the play may be.
The main thing is to get good seats
and hear the clever little actors, for
whatever they show is staged In u
way that would do credit to many an
adult professional company. The lit
tie people are artists. They do not
mimic or initiate; they create. Any
one who has followed the plays
shown here so far will be convinced
of the truth Of this statement. Who
will say that the Heintz Kids are
not "natural-born" funny men? And
how many professionals have been
seen that were better than they are
at their business?
When 1t comes to funny men. how
ever, there is one Teddie Mcnamara,
whose talents 'clamor for recogni-
tion. Teddie has not had the lead
ing funny roles this year, for he is
soon to graduate into the adult Pol
lard troupe, and the Heintz boys
were being trained to take his place.
But he will have a good comedian
part tonight in The Lady Slavey''
and his friends are anxious to see
him. He is the original Funny Man
Of the Pollard company, and made
n big sensation last year.
THE Lady Slayey" will be shown
tonight. tomorrow night, and We'd
resday matinee and evening. to be
followed by the old favorite, THE
Toymaker," which will run for the
rest OF the week.

WASHINGTON. oct. A--The great fight

ing to Chief statistican Cressy l.. Wilbur

1T is probable that the great attention
that has been given 10 this disease through
the congress on tuberculosis held az Wash
ington in I90s and the organization Of many
states and local societies has already begun
to have its effect upon mortality from this
disease, and a continued decline in the
death rate from IL from year TO year
may be expected
The total number OF deaths from all
forms OF tuberculosis returned In 1905 was
