The CaaInO-Vaudeville
Every act on this weeks Casino Thea

II is the Casinos first 1900 show. It
cost more than that, in reality, but as
the house will feature in future only bills

show is called the 81 200 attraction In
round numbers.
The act that is given the leading place
on the programme OF all-headline merit.
is Jimmy Pinkerton's First Case" VIII
NJ. Cressy's masterpiece. For this play
Ed. Heron and Madge Douglass paid Mr..
Cressy 81. 500. The author Is we'll known
In Washington for his own work and for
his sketches. Jimmy Pinkerton's First
Case commanded the largest price that
Mr.. Cressy ever received for a single
play. Mr.. Heron and Miss Douglass are
well known in the show world as artists
OF talent and rare versatility, and the
claim Is made that they will put on one
Of the best vaudeville sketches that has
been brought to Washington.
The Monarch Dancing Four Is another
big card. 1t Is made UP OF two girls and
two men. Their dancing is of the whirl-
wind type. The finish is said to have the
most riotous dancing offering that has
been seen on any stage since the famous

The BeInsco-Dante's "Inferno."

Beginning with performance tonight.
the motion picture presentation of
Dante's Inferno" will remain another
week at the Belasco Theater, beginning
daily matinees tomorrow.
The artistic nature and educational val
ue of these realistic films met with a
steadily increasing patronage last week.
To depict the extraordinary scenes Of
Dante's imaginative Inferno" or hell,
required two years work by a distin-
guished company of over 200 Italian
artists
Nothing was left to chance in the prep
aration of this work, and the slightest
detail was given the most careful atten-
tion. The numerous scenes depicting
eternal punishment were taken amid nat
ural scenic back grounds, such as the
crater and chaotic surroundings of ma
ture in her most terrible aspect at Mount
Vesuvius, about which the company
spent many months.

Gayety-Robie,s "KnickerbocIxers

Hot Stuff is the name Of a new
burlesque which Louis Robie has added
10 the bill Of fare for his Knickerbocker
Burlesquers to be presented at the Gay
city this week.
II current reports can be depended
upon, Hot Stuff'' has every indication
of being extremely airy and laughy. Fun
Is said to be compounded on fun, like
the interest in a get-rch-quick scheme,
till the whole eXplodes in one burst Of
merriment and the curtain comes down,
leaving the audience wondering what
they have been laughing over.
The scene is laid in a fashionable
ladies' gambling establishment in Fifth
svenue, New York. Although the place
is run exclusively for women Of betting
proclivities, complications are started by
an intriguing married woman making a
date to meet her lover at the roulette
wheel, while her millionaire husband,
who is somewhat of a boob" makes a
similar arrangement with two other wo-
men. A detective and a crook. who
have sworn TO kill each other, are
only deferred from cracking each others
skulls by the unreasonable arrival OF the
boob husband.
Among the musical numbers that are
rlaced SO as to add suspense to the
plot are The Daffy Dill Bugs" said to
be a rare hit OF nonsense, and one OF
the burlesque hits OF the season, And
the Elevator Went Up
The Love kiss and The Joy Bath"
will also be features of the entertain
ment, and besides such burlesquers as
Zella De Mar. Carol Schroeder. James
Lake, and Charles Blake. Lewis and
Green, Kip and Kippy. and the New
mans there will be the usual Robiesdue
chorus.

The Cosmos-vaudeviIIe.

The fail opening week or the Cosmos
Fheater will be one exceptionally ar
tistic and entertaining. Something new
in the way OF statue posing will be that
of La Refine Glorieuse, representing
ancient and modern works of art. The
many accessories that accompany this
act serve to make the groupings exact
counterparts Of the originals. A feature
that will be thoroughly enjoyed by those
who love music for music's sake will
be Ye Olde Country Choir, a quartet
of voices .excellently blended and SYM
pathetic. They will give home songs OF
other days. such as Annie Laurie "Old
Kentucky Home" and Good Night" A
surprise will come in the form of
Leona, a Siberian songbird with Won
derful range comprising the soprano as
well as the basso. She will give selec-
tions Of the classic and ballad order.
Comedy will be furnished by McShane,
Troy and Baker, a minstrel trio, COM
prising the end men and the interlocu-
tor. - ..-
Perhaps the greatest laugh during the
entire programme will be heard during
the act of Roach and McCurdy, rube
comedians, who have way OF their
own of telling their experiences. Still
another musical act will be offered by
May and Lily Burns, who. with vocal
and instrumental numbers, VIII De FOUND
exceptionally entertaining.
With such an exceptional bill for the
Cosmos, the fall opening next week
promises to be record breaker In at

ABOUT The SUGAR TARIFF.

What will be done to the sugar tar
in? is one Of the questions constantly
In the minds of Honolulu people.
To answer 1t positively is as i'm
possible as reading the mind of the
United States Congress at a time
when 1t is more thoroughly mixed
than at any time in the recent history
of the country
In forming an estimate of the situa-
ton. however, 1t should be remem-
bercd that the attacks made on the
sugar schedule from day to day and
appearing in the cable messages of
the Bulletin and other papers of
the city are statements made before
the special Congressional committee
appointed for the investigation of the
| sugar Trust. Reference to the sugar
tariff is an incidental feature, of the
investigation of Il Trust that has vio-
lated the law OF the country, and of
the claim that the tariff is the mother
| If all Trusts.
| Up to the present moment no at
tack has been made on the sugar tar
IN from source that has not always
been among the ancient enemies nee
essary to consider at a Congressional
session. 1t is difficult for the aver
age reader to discriminate. Senator
Bristow for instance has always made
a feature of attacking the Dutch
standard tariff rate. He is always as
saulting the sugar tariff. According

Recomme ndatiOBs.
81 would respectfully make the fol-
lowing recommendations.
/. That the superintendent himself
should be stationed at Honolulu, not
only to receive and distribute pro-,
duce shipped in, but also to inspect
and stamp, and, II necessary, re-grade
and re-pack before delivery produce
passing through the Honolulu depot.
The inspection stamp should show the
district from which the produce orig
mated and the name of the producer,
where known.
2. In order to regulate supply and
prices the department should, in. local
business, deal only with jobbers, Civ
ing each the same protection.
3. The department should, like the
private shipper on the mainland, pro-
vide seed for planting, not only to
encourage the production of particlar
crops, but also to maintain standard
grades and secure proper varieties. A
field man will be needed to instruct
growers In planting. raising and
grading and packing
4. As the export trade market de-
| velops II will ultimately be found
necessary to have sales agent per-
manently stationed on the coast, to
advise what to ship and at what times.
to divert shipments en- route to the
best markets, to distribute 10 the best
advantage to buyers. avoiding unnec-
essary commissions to middlemen and
to make collections. The same man
could procure seed and advise as to
new varieties.
| There should be a small fixed COM
mission charged growers for the SER
vices of the department, not intended
to cover expenses of the department
at first but placing II on business
basis and on the way to ultimate self
support.
81 have found no sentiment adverse
TO such a department and especially
| In outside districts have found much
desire to have It organized and put to
work" ii.

MIR. Bristow's amendment IL passed
would not endanger the Hawaiian
sugar industry. Ii has to do with a
lower grade sugar than Is manufac-
tured here, so that under his scheme
as at. present understood the tariff
on ninety-six degree contrifugals
would remain about the same.
Information obtained from those
specially occupied with watching the
interests of this Territory at WASH
ington is that there is no present dan
ger of a revision of the sugar tariff.
This conclusion is based on a sizing
up of the Congressional situation, in
dependently of the sugar investigating
commission that is furnishing food
for the dispatches. In other words
the sugar tariff AS broad question
calling for action Is not now before
Congress and is not likely to be dur
ing the extra session.
There are possibilities that Con
gress will start off on rampage and
slash tariff rates right and left with
out long and thorough discussion.
But 1t would be the first time in the
history of the country, and there is no
reasonable probability of its being
done now. Congress is not gone mad,
and no political party has ever yet
secured a majority for policy Of re-
ducing the revenues of the country
from one source without making pro-
vision from another source. At the
present time tariff reducing is rev.
enue reducing.
The Blu letin would therefore
suggest that the people of Hawaii
need have no fear of immediate
sugar tariff reduction.
What will be done during the reg
ular session is another matter But
we doubt whether there will be gen
eral slashing during that session,
though there will be constant threats.

fore Congress. The contest will be
bitter. And the chances are as good
for blockade with no general legis-
lation ms they are for tariff changes.
One Of the significant factors of the
present day is the increasing inquiry
for Ilonolulu's sugar stock offerings
from San Francisco, which indicates
that the BUYERS on the mainland are
not seriously worried over the sugar
tariff changes.
McBryde plantation for instance
would be most seriously affected by
sugar tariff reduction. Orders for
purchases Of that stock have recently
come from San Francisco.
