SOCIAL SET SEES
''MIKADO" GIVEN

cred herself with honors that pro-
fessional might well envy. Mrs. Alice
Hayward as PittiSing was most
charming and clever actress, she pos
sesSes the sease and grace on the
stage, that one rarely in anna
teur; in fact Mrs Hayward is one of
the cleyerest amateurs ever seen in
Honolulu. Her work with Pooh-Bah
was indeed good she has a keen sense
of humor and uses it. Mrs. Samuel
Wright Tay as Peep-Boo had the
small part of the three maids, but the
little she had to do was SO well done,
that one cannot say too much in her
favor Mrs Tay took the part less
than week ago owing to Miss Rob-
ertsons inability to continue rehear-
sails. She was more or less familiar
with the part having done it before in
Los Angeles. Mrs Chester Hume was
a great surprise to Honolulu, she has
exceptional talent was in excellent
voice and was very vivid, her make
up was huge scream, we can hardly
comprehend the change that grease
paint accomplishes. her work with
Ko-Ko was finished and she well de-
served the rounds of applause that
she received Mr.. George A. Brown
as the Mikado was splendid, his bear
ing was dgnified and stately, his act
ing was superb--it is part that could
easily be overdone, but in Mr. Browns
hands it was as clean and clever as
a professionals. Mr.. Browns voice
is rich and full, and from the applause
he received, it is evident that he will
be called On many times in the future
for its is plain that he rs a mighty
clever amateur. Mr.. Dougherty as
Nanld-Poo needs no Introduction to
Honolulu audience. for he has always
been accommodating in taking part
in everything given from grand opera
down to minstrel shows and every
time has covered himself with glory
His solo "a Wandering Minstrel" was
splendidly done and would do credit
to any professional, his work with
Yum-Yum and also with Katsha was
indeed excellent, and brought him the
rounds of applause that he justly de-
served his wonderful tenor has never
been heard to better advantage Mr.
David Anderson as the bride taking
Pooh-Bah was great he is naturally
diSnified and possesses a fine carriaga,
so ii was no trick at all 70" him to
impersonate Pooh-Bah. His facial en-
preston is enough to keep one in
spasms of laughter, the manner mi
which he addresses the three little
maids as young persons is a, laugh

where Nanki-Poo thanks him. hoping
it will end his la. la, is among the
funniest things in the opera. Mr. TED
Vaughan's part as Ko-Ko that's him to
perfection, his acting is that of an old
hand at the business, with perfect
care he keeps the audience intensely
amused, his local song Eve Got Him
On My List" simply brought down the
house. Mr.. Vaughan is especially
clever and while this is his first pub
lie appearance in Honolulu, he has
