Maxwell Benefit a Success s-EiahOr-
ate Pictures at Wailuku 0rpheum
Together With Some Funny Stunts
Maui Theater Soon to Be No More.

At the benefit performance given
last Monday evening at the Maui
Theater for the George Maxwell fam
lily, who suffered the loss of their
home two weeks ago, very large
audience witnessed an excellent per.
Torrance and between 5000 and $500
was netted. The money was turned
over to II. b. Penhallow and will be
used to help provide the family with
another home.
Love Everlasting" was the title
of well-produced picture play with
tragic ending, produced at the Wal
luku Orpheum this week. The scene
of the plot is in Italy and centers
around the mutual infatuation OF n
young prince and talented stage
favorite. Outside interference brings
the romance to gruesome close.
The setting of the picture is extreme
ly elaborate and beautiful, and the
parts are we'll taken and sustained.
The Orpheum's Roley Policy contest
which started this week, is a funny
stunt in which local boys try to dis
lodge each other from a revolving
pole.
The Jansen and Duncan vaudeville
combination which played in Wailuku
last week, drew a good house at Ka
hului Lyceum on Monday night.
The Maui Theater has had some
good pictures during the past week
and promises a good bill for the com
ing week. AS before reported, this
playhouse closes its doors perma
nently at the end of this month, be
ing absorbed by the new Valley Isle
Theater nearing completion on Mar
ket street.

Millions at
The 0rpheu11
Adventures of the Unfortunate Who
Has the Task of Spending a Mil
lion Dollars in One Year-A Clean
Cut Comedy That Made Great Hit.

Spending a million dollars in year
or to be more correct in 357 days
sounds like an easy task, but with the
restrictions thrown around Brewster
in his job of getting rid of this tidy
sum in the time mentioned it proved
a Herculean task.
Brewster makes good and spends
his million and thereby wins seven
millions and in the spending he pro
duces sufficient comedy to provide 81
delightful evenings en-cr' ainment
In the spending Of his paltry for
tune of million in order to increase
it sevenfold, Brewster causes his
friends frequently to doubt his sanity
and to plan means for safeguarding
his wealth
What would be luck to the average
citizen is misfortune to Brewster dur
ing his 357 days spendfest. He backs
an opera company, figuring ON dis
NAL failure and it proves a gigantic
success which calls for a telegram
from Brewster reading; "Close and
come home. Cannot afford success. D
He backs the smallpriced man in a
fight and wins $4,000, which amount
he credits i'm his account book to
'misjudgment." He speculates in a
lemon" on the stock market and
there is Immediately a boom and he
wins $4,000. It's a case of AL
coming in" with Brewster a large part
of the time. However, he manages tc
be clean broke on the day prescribed
and claims the larger fortune. Incl
dentally, the only" girl, who has hat
confidence in him through thick anC

she learns that he is "broke."

Salaries Get
Boosted By
Supervisors
In Making Up Budget All Salaries Cut
During Year Restored Some More
Than RestOred-WiIl Need More
Money, But Confident Of Getting it.

At special meeting Of the Board of
Supervisors held on Tuesday the reg
ular annual budget estimates of the
county for the coming year 1915, was
passed upon The board figures out
that it will need about S33O0OO for
the coming twelve months, and shows
how this is to be raised based on an
assessment valuation of $25, 100000.
The board really expects to get more
than this, banking on the likelihood
of the valuation being raised after
the assessment in January
One of the most interesting feat
ures of the meeting was the decision
to boost all salaries that had been
cut during the past year. to their
former level, and in not few ms
tances to a figure higher than they
had ever been before. The board
figures out that it will only have to
register warrants for salaries for two
or three months, before the next tax
money comes in. Tho summary OF
the budget as passed is published in
another column of this issue.

About Passed Its Useful Period.

Plans are now being prepared for
a handsome new store and warehouse
building to be bud by the Kahului
Store soon after the first of the year.
The store will hel located on the cor
ner across from lhe Masonic Temple
building, and across the main street
from the Kahului Railroads Merch-
andise Department warehouses.
The new building was definitely de-
cided upon this week and work will
probably be started on it within a
short time. The growth of the stores
business and the fact that the present
quarters are so old as to be practical
ly beyond repair, made the new build
ing a necessity at this time. The
building now in use is about thirty
years old, being one of the first
buildings of any size in Kahului. The
new store will be a frame structure,
one story high.

Although suffering severely from

- Although the activity of the great
fire pit had greatly diminished from
what it had been a week previously,
Mr.. Bowdish describes the scene in
beauty. One veiy large fire fountain
was playing at the time and there
were a number of large lakes of
molten lava visible. The party found
the trip anything but pleasant, and
the last two and a half miles were
made through snow. DR.. Baker did
not reach the summit, being seriously
affected by mountain sickness and re-

New ROseIle
Drink TO Be
Exploited
Plans Made By Nahiku Company
to Exploit Delightful Product
at San Diego ExpOsition-Be-
lieve il Has Big Future.

new Hawaiian product is to be
extensively exploited on the mainland
this summer in the new roselle
drink, which the Nahiku Rubber Com
pany has been perfecting for the past
year or more. A considerable supply
of the new product has already gone
forward TO the coast, where it is to
be featured at the San Diego eXposi-
ton. 1t is understood that a contract
has been made with the southern Cali
fornia fair officials, which ensures
that very large quantity of the deli
cious product will be disposed Of.
Many persons believe that in tue
pure juice of the roselle will be found
the principal future of the new fruit
although it is understood that both
jelly and jam are to be maCt as by
products after the drink has been pre-
pared. The juice as prepared for
drinking is of most delicious flavor,
slightly sub acid, and exceedingly re
freshing. There is nothing fiat or
insipid about it, while at the same
time it has real character" which
so many drinks lack. It's beautiful
color is one of its attractive features.
w. A. Anderson, manager of the
Nahiku Rubber Company, who has
been most prominent in developing
the product, claims that the secret Of
perfectly preserving the juice has
been solved. 1t is reported that the
company is taking in considerable ad-
ditional capital and then an extensive
campaign will soon be launched to
popularize the product. r. L. Turner,
who came here two years or more
ago, and developed the roselle bust
ness, is largely interested in the un'
dertaking. He is expected to arrive
here next week for a stay of some
time.

this season-all except the market
ing end of the undertaking. Although
the fruit is universally liked by those
who have tried it, it is not well
enough known to make it sell readily
in large quantities.
The prison gang and a heavy bull
lock team, which have been at work
on the roads above Haiku, have made
a decided improvement on them, but
they are still far from good. Nothing
but macadam on the main thorough
fares will ever make these roads ser
viceable in wet weather-and judg-
ing from the past nine months, there
isn't any other kind to be expected.
However, there is little heavy hauling
on the roads just at present so they
are passable, which was BOT the case
few months ago.
Prof f. G. Krauss, of the College
of Hawaii, is expected TO arrive today
from Honolulu, to spend Christmas
with his family.
c. C. James, will arrive next Wed
nesday from Honolulu for the Christ

Dainty light refreshments were pro

The Kuiaha Club met last Friday

of the most pleasant meetings this
