After an amusement famine lasting
nearly three months. Virginia Brissac
and ".The Worlds Fair Stock Co. are
a very welcome addition to the amuse-
ment life of the city, and that their
efforts are appreciated is proven very
conclusively by theA large audiences
which CROWD the Onera Horse night
ly, and also by the generous applause
that has greeted the efforts Of the
different players.
A more popular company, or one
playing with more success than the
Brissac company, has never visited
Honolulu. One reason for the success
is the attention paid to small detail
nothing, no matter how seeming tri-
vial that goes toward making a sue,
cess of a production is forgotten. For
instance. the railroad tickets that
Elliot" in the Travelling Salesman
are the real article. and were kindly
given to Wray, in San Francisco by
ticket agent And speaking of tic
ket agents, Miss Brissac makes very
winsome one herself. If there were
more like her in the mainland ticket
Offices, railroad travel would be wish
bly, increased. John Wray is proving
himself real comedian as Bob
Blake" The Travelling Salesman, .
and Is adding another success to his
already long list. The other members
of the company all show to good ad-
vantage including the new members
of the company who have already hes
come exceedingly popular i
Beginning Monday evening, "The
Gamblers" new play by Chas.
Klein, author Of THE Third Degree"
and "The Lion and the Mouse" will
be produced, This is Klein's latest,
and New York critics claim, his best
play. People who have seen his 9TH
er efforts know that THE Gamblers
will have to be very powerful drama
to eclipse his other efforts, but as
presented by Miss Brissac ord her
clever company 1t will no doubt be
mere than success The Gamblers"
will give Miss Brissac opportunity
for some heavy emotional work for
which she Is especially adapted and
will also provide excellent roles for
Wray, James Dillon and the full
strength of the company. Miss Bris-
sac will also display some late Paris
creations in this piece. "The Travel
ing Salesman" will run tonight and
tomorrow night matinee Saturday at
2:30 D. m.

Thin. brittle, colorless and scraggy
hair is mute evidence of neglected
scalp; of dandruff-that awful scurf.
There is nothing so destructive to
the hair as dandruff. 1t robs the hair
of its lustre, its strength and its very
lie; eventually producing a feyerish-
ness and itching of the scalp, which
If not remedied causes the hair roots
to shrink, loosen and die-then the
hair falls out fast
A little Danderine tonight-now-
anytime -will surely save your hair

by Richard Valentine general man

The independents We're informed,
according to the witness. that hun
dreds of millions of dollars were being
lost by competition, and that under
non competitive conditions, the capita.

might be increased.
Mr. Wallis PLAN said the witness,
was that his company should mono
police the business in sections where
they had a present preponderance of
it and that the independents were TO
have a monopoly where they were in
the ascendent.
Mr.. Vail was asked what was to
become of the independents who were

DES MONIES IOWA IS
A DRY TOWN !
EVERY SALOON IS CLOSE As A RESULT
OF A SUPREME COURT DECISION AND
PROHIBlTIORISTS WILL FIGHT ANY
ATTEMPT TO REOPEN.

! Des Moines la, Nov. 24,--With ev
the result of the supreme court deci
sion unanimously handed down Sat
urday, there was little prospect early
! today that an effort to reopen the
saloons would be made before to-
morrow.
Judge A. c. Parker. representing
the liquor interests, said that the ap-
plcation for a re-hearing upon which
which might be expected a stay of eX-
ecuting permitting the saloons to OPP.
crate for thirty or sixty days would
hardly be filed today,
The prohibtionists were busy with
plans for fighting the application for
re-hearng, and it was announced that
even should the saloons be permitted
to temporarily reopen, the demand
for closing made Saturday under
another decision would be renewed
and applications for injunctions
filed.
The other decision referred to was
that the case of TT. Dodge saloons,
where the court held that a saloon
consenting to the petition must be
based on petition. The Des Moines
petition which was knocked out Sat
urday was based on national cleo
ton and the Fort Dodge question was
not brought up. 1t is therefore, an
entirely different issue.

FREIGHT RATE RAISE.
MANY ROADS Join IN
PETITION FOR A RAISE

Washington. ID. c., Nov. 24.-Danic
Willard, president of the Baltimore
and Ohio; Frederick A. Delano. presl
dent of the Wabash. and George Stuar'
Patterson, general solicitor OF the
! PENNSYLVANIA, appeared before the
commerce commission today
to argue for authority to increase rates
on all classes of freight traffic approx
mately five per cent east of the Mlssi-
Issippi and north of the Ohio and Po-
Itomac rivers.
The hearing is of the utmost I'M
poltance to all the railroads u the
United States, for should the commits
sion grant permission for the increase,
it might extend the authority to the
other railroads.
The commission will inquire whether
present rates yield adequate revenues
to the common carriers, and much tes'
timony will be taken.
At the opening of the hearing ap-
pearances were entered by officials
and counsel for the 52 eastern rail-
roads. Approximately 250 representa-
tives of the railroads and of shippers
organizations were present. Louis d.
Brandeis of Boston, and Frank Lyon
of this city, appeared for the commits
sion to develop facts in opposition to
the proposed advance in rates.
A preliminary statement was made
by George Stuart Patterson, solicitor
of the Pennsylvania road. who assert
ed that the proposed rate increases
presented a great economic question,
the outline of which. it was especially
fitting, should be presented by execu-
tive officers of great railroad systems.
George M Shriver. vice president OF
the Baltimore and Ohio, presented
combined financial and operating state
ment of the New York Central, the
and the Baltimore and
Ohio systems for the last eleven
years.
The statement showed that the three
systems have about fifty per cent of
he mileage in the eastern territory.
and that their property investment

greater than it was at the close of
