THEY TRUSTED HIM

Leaving them without any one to
get their breakfast, and worse still,
running away to Chicago with nearly
5000 of his patrons money. was the
trick Monday evening of George
Smaritch, Austrian proprietor of
bunk and boarding house on the canal
near the bending works.
Last night Smaritch told all of his
boarders to settle up with him for
their months board and lodging. After
he had been paid, some time later the
foreign boarding house keeper took
train for the east and the Chicago
police are today looking for him.
Smaritch owed several local retail
merchants, large bills for supplies he
purchased
To make long story brief, half
dozen or more Bulgarians who have
been eating and sleeping at Smaritch's
| boarding house near the quarry where
they are employed, had entrusted the
runaway Austrian with some of their
money, to keep for them until they
could send their earnings to the CID
country.
Smaritch when he left the city, had
money from six or seven of the Bull
garians, some giving him five, ten,
twenty and one man, forty dollars.
The latter contributor to Smaritch' 8
trust money is John X. Parvanoff,
who today filed information in the SUI
perior court against Smaritch, charg-
ing him with willful and felonious en-
bezzlement. Parvanoff recited the
troubles of his countrymen who waited
patiently at breakfast time today for
Smaritch to appear and give them
their meal but the Austrian had taken
flight in the night. Nagel, foreman OF

The Right Way to Celebrate.

There has been much work along
the line of education, that has proven
effective, and it Is to be doubted that
boys, for instance who have become
members of the Boy Scouts would
engage in or permit pranks that will
injure innocent people or result in
losses to property owners. And then
the cement walk has gone far toward
stopping the old-time destruction ct
walks and crossings.
But, how much real, innocent fun
the night can bring. The pumpkin
that has been followed out and the
lad with the bed sheet AMI the long
pole, who plays ghost and the hundred
and one games and tests that were
in this country, and that haze been
preserved everywhere in the lard and
that are guarded most faithfully in
the old southland, all of these afford
real amusement that all can enjoy and
that will harm none And, no doubt,
the twentieth century and the ingen-
uity of Keokuk boys and girls can
add many new ones to the old games
that have SO long been held in high
esteem and preserved as precious heir
looms, as some of the best things,
that have been brought across the big
water. 1t is to be hoped that all the
young folks and many, very many OF
the older folks may enjoy Halloween
in Keokuk this year, and that there
may be nothing to mar the pleasure
of all. and that there may be none so
foolish, as to engage in amusement,
that will result in an introduction to
Judge Mcnamara. While there are
whole books full Of innocent entertain
ment and amusement, and while all
| bright boys and girls ought to be able
to devise new games, interesting and
harmless. If the old ones do not suf.
fee, surely there is no reason for
having any other kind. Let us have
very happy Halloween. Let all
celebrate. But let it be safe and
sane celebration.

Norton Comedy Company Benefit.
The benefit rendered to the men,
bers of the late Norton Comedy Com
pany last night in the New Orpheum
Theater was a success in every way.
The program was a good one, and
there was a large audience.
Nearly all the artists appearing at
the theaters of the Honolulu Amuse-
ment Company submitted turns, and
in addition the members of the late
company played a sketch. They were
successful in this.
During an interval, Robert McKim
stepped forward, and in a rather long
speech thanked the people who had
so materially assisted in making the
benefit a success, the Honolulu Amuse-
ment Company for the way it had
come to their aid, the press for their
advertising space, and lastly the PEG,
pie who had attended in such large
numbers in order to assist the mem
bers of the late company to get out
of Honolulu. In a sarcastic manner
he thanked Mr.. Norton for his kind
ness for having brought the company
here, and having left it in the manner
that he had. The proceeds of the en-
tertainment, McKim said, would en-
able them to leave the city respect

THE THEATERS
Biiou Has Star Act.

1t is doubtful whether so much en-
thusiasm has even been seen at the
Bijou as was the case last night, when
the Eldids made their first appear
ance. This is undoubtedly the finest
act that has ever been seen here and
it is no wonder that their reputation
had preceded them, and that the seat
ing and standing capacity of the thea
ter was taxed. For a long time many
found it impossible to gain even ad-
mission to the large house, and those
who did had served to them a vaude-
Vile turn that would find a prominent
position on any bill in any large city.
The act submitted by the Eldids is
varied, and it is just one round of
.cleverness interlarded with funny
business that has the audience in
screams of laughter. The little niger
was the chief funmaker, and was ably
assisted by the Eldid junior. The
hula dance by the niger who is ar
rayed in grass skirt with a plentiful
supply of leis, furnished a great trav-
esty on the famous dance He was
Irecalled a number of times, and the
audience did not want to let him 60

membered that it is eight or ten feet
above the boards on a platform not
more than twelve inches wide, the
feats seem incredible 1t looks as
though it were impossible to remain
on the board during the intricate
tricks that he goes through. Needless
to say, the Eldids received a welcome
that showed that they will be great
favorites during their season in this
city.
Madam Leonora Harrison made her
first appearance. She was well-gown-
ed, and the audience seemed pleased
with her songs, for they encored her
