BREED THEATER.
Boots and Saddles" Stirring West
ern Military Moving Picture.

This great western moving picture
has for its basis a strong story of mil
itary life in the west, wherein a SOL
der insults an officer, and sentenced
to the guard house the spirit of re-
venge is allow to develop and by the
time his sentence is served he has
many fiendish plans concocted which
he proceeds TO carry out. Being in
easy riding distance of the Indian res
ervation he enlists the service of an
Indian, who, for the price of a little
fireWater. is willing to do anything.
The soldier secreted himself in the In
dams tepee, but no sooner does he do
so than the reservation is surrounded
by the officers cavalry friends, but the
Indians, believing that firewater is
stronger than friendship, attack the
them prisoners. An Indian maiden,
seeing the true predicament steals
away to the remainder of the cavalry
and tells them where their brother
caValrymen are, and a long and hot
cross country chase takes place, ar
irving at the Indian camp just as the
Indians are having a war dance
around the soldiers preparatory to
burning them at the stake
To say that this picture is thrilling
expresses it mildly, for it abounds with
are. no less sensational than pictur-
esque.
Other splendid pictures that are a
success this week are: The Piano
Teacher, dramatic; The Test, dramat-
ic; Grandfather. dramatic;f and the
comedy portion is supplied with the
very timely picture, The Suffragettes
Dream, and The Strong Draught.

mirers OF Madame Morelle will be

many trills. cadenzas and high notes
compel the audience to give her
small ovation at the conclusion Of each
performance. At no time has her
splendid musical training shown to
better advantage than In this number

THE TRUE MARTYR.

So he died for his faith That Is fine
More than most OF us do.
But, say. can YOU add TO that line
That he lived for g. too2
In his death he bore witness at last
As a martyr to truth,
Did his life do the same in the past
From the days OF his youth2
It Is easy to die Men have died
For g. wish or a whim-
From bravado or passion or pride.
Was it harder for him?
But to live-everv dav 70 live out
All the truth that ne drcamt
While his friends met his contempt
with doubt
And the world with contempt.
Was Il thus he nlod1ed ahead,
Never turning aside2
Then wen talk Of the life that he les.
Never mind how he died

MUCH ADULT ITERATION
OF POI REPORTED

All is not poi that thickens and this
fact has been borne in upon a great
many users of that Hawaiian staff of
life on the other islands. In Honolulu,
where there is a more or less close tab
kept upon the pol-pounders, the blue
mass reaches the consumer in all its
natural purity, but according to well
authenticated reports, outside manufac-
turers have been gradually adding to
and substituting in their materials I'M
til the national dish has grown to be
poster paste in reality as well as in ap-
pearance and taste. The principal adul-
terant up until the last few weeks has
been -four, with which has been COM
pounded yeast mixture that adds bulk
to the whole.
In most places in the country, paiai
is sold by the bag, not by weight and
this has afforded a great opportunity
for the ones who want to add little
to the profits by filling the paiai bags
partly and letting the yeast do the rest.
When the bag leaves the poi shop it
has a tabbiness most noticeable. After
it has been allowed to lie around for
some hours it acquires corpulency that
threatens the sack seams. A shipper
who loaded few bags on the Claudine
| the other day rather overdid the yeast
ing. The bags lay for an hour in the
sun at Hama, the contents straining the
| jute almost to the bursting point. A
boat boy jabbed one of the sacks ex-
| perimentally with a stick and supplied
the necessary force to tear small hole,
out of which, much to the alarm of all
beholders, oozed blue snakelike stream
of near-poi, which coiled itself in yard
wide loops upon the wharf, the sack
shrinking back to normal with an audi
BILE sigh.
This gas-tilled poi can hardly fail OF
being injurious, but probably less so
than the substitute poi made of -four
used by many Hawaiians on Maui and
! Hawaii. This is cheap wheat -four
stirred into a batter with cold water
and yeast added. When ready for the
table it is sour paste pure and simple
The increased cost of pure poi and
the consequent necessity for a substi
tute being used by many of the Hawai-
ians is regarded by many of the country
physicians as one of the principal rea
sons for the physical deterioration OF
the Hawaiian race. According to the
report of a goveTnmnt physician, in one
of the largest Hawaiian settlements or
| Maui there is not one house in which
there is not one or more cases of con
sumption, while the vital statistics Of
The Territory weekly record the terri
BILE proponderance of Hawaiians among
the deaths OF the week.
