TOURIST COMES TN
CARNIVAL'S MIDST

Just two days from tonight the
big Carnival, which II is fully ex-
pected win make the fame of Homo
lulu known around the world, will
start with the first of the three pro-
auctions of THE Tourist" at the
opera house, The two other produc-
tons will be on Thursday and Friday
nights.
"The Tourist is the first play or
musical comedy ever produced in Ho-
nilulu of which lines, music and songs
have all been written by local people
and in which the entire cast is com.
posed of Honolulans. With the excep-
ton of four songs that have been in-
terpolated there is not a word OF
"Tha Tourist" that has not been
written by local playwrights, not a
note that has not been written by
Carl Miltner, whose reputation as a
music writer is bound to be greatly
enhanced by the excellent work he has
done on this occasion.
1.-The Tourist" is full of local hits
which it would not be fair to disclose
In advance. Suffice it to say that some
prominent citizens will learn just how
prominent they really are.
A full rehearsal was held yester-
day afternoon at the opera house.
Everything went smoothly The prin-
copals knew their lines almost per.
fectly, while the singing and dancing
of the big chorus proved to be a reyel-
alton
Advance sales Of tickets have
broken al lreeoIus, and II rs safe to
say that three full houses will greet
the production of The Tourist" We'd

THOUSANDS MEET END.
catsrpilIars, Not Human Beings, XIII
ed BY Nitroglycerine.

PETERSBURG, w. Va, June Il
That nitroglycerine may become a
common commodity for the extermi-
nation of fruit orchard insects is the
belief OF the growers of Grant county,
ost of whom have investigated the
methods pursued by jerome ~ An.
drews, accidental discovcrer Of the
new method of exterminating fruit,
destroying insects.
Mr. Andrews had employed some
uitroglycerine in blasting stumps in
the lower end of his orchard. He had
been much troubled by caterpilars
in his orchard and every insect-l;ill-
ing device had failed in its effect
upon them. Sunday. while walking
through his orchard, he was attracted
by peculiar popping sound coming
from the branches OF many of the
peach trees. His attention was at,
tracted to three o four caterplllars
til a itlllbr Nlitil 1NaAlhFAA4Ss AtAlbNitAC
as many short. sharp pops, the cater
pillars disappeared. His curiosity
thoroughly aroused, he investigated
more closely and discovered that in
one section OF the orchard caterpil-
lars were blowing up by the scores.
An examination disclosed the fact
that a can of nitroglycerine had been
carelessly left open nearby, and the
caterpiIlars had been feeding on it.
They are said to1be very fond OF the
taste of the nitro.
A meeting Of the South Branch
Fruit Growers Association has been
called for trlursday evening when
the matter will he thoroughly dis
GUESSED. An effort will be made 10
discover what effect may be had on
insects other than caterpillars
