This is q fast age. People no longer

speed OF twenty or even thirty miles
an hour with . machine that is capa-

Umpire Alexander. Both teams

bell was on the mound for Hope
and pitched good ball from the
start. The circus boys went. out
in one-two.three style, and when
Hope came to bat they were pre-
pared to win the game from the
first inning, and made three
scores. This ended the scoring
until the eighth, when two hits
and two pass balls gave Hope two
more tallies. Tarbell had the
visitors at his mercy all the time
and would not allow them any.

MUSICAL COMEDY
At BIJOU SHOWS
IMPROVEMENT
But Small Audience Turns Out
to Best Offering of the ].
Magee Company

That the Jack Magee Musical Com
edy Company is gradually getting out
of the "slap-stick" rut, and has come
to the conclusion that Honolulu the
atergoers are as anxious for some
thing new and different" as are main
land audiences, may be seen from the
brand OF comedy which THE Gentle
man From Japan brought to- the BIZ
iou theater last night. Notwithstand-
ing the few minor flaws which were
in evidence owing to its being an ini-
tial performance, the Gentleman from
Japan can safely be branded as the
best thing that the company has had
to offer since coming to Honolulu.
The play is a breezy little farce,
with many snappy lines which got
over in good style, and some fairly
good music. The Gentleman from
Japan" however, did not please a
large audience. The audience wasn't
large The small attendance was due,
perhaps, to the rain. which not only
kept people away, but which drummed
necessarily on the sheet-iron roof of
the theater and made the lines of the
players inaudibie at times.
Jolly Jack" Magee, whom it must
be taken for granted is jolly, refused
last night to be funny Jolly Jack"
should annex some Of the life and wit
displayed by Frank Vack, and then
things would get along much better.
Vack was back in his old role Of
Dutch comedian last night, and re-
ceived generous applause when he
made his first appearance.
The Gentleman from Japan" while
not of the same style as Madame
Butterfly" is full of amusing coplpli-
cations, brought about when Hiney
Schultz returns suddenly from Japan
in search of the beautiful girl whose
photograph he has fallen in love with.
His nephew, however, has married
the girl and the fun commences when
the nephew endeaFers.. to-. keep his
uncle from learnf1gs the. identity of
his niece-by marriage. Clarence Lyd-
ston as Bob Racket, the nephew; Dor.
othy Raymond as his wife; Lillyan
Mason as Mrs. Ryan, and Make
Mitchell at Katy, the maid, handled
their parts in unusually good shape. {
There were several good musical num-
bers, coupled with some attractive
dancing specialties by the chorus.
Whether the Biiou's 'one-show-a-
night plan is good one remains to
be seen. The several reels of motion
pictures which are shown prior to the
comedy company's taking the stage
at $3.50 o'clock, may come to detract
from the interest in the company s.
part of the performance. Although no
complaints have been heard as yet,
the Bijou may find it advisable to go
back to the old plan of running two
shows a night and cutting down on
the motion pictures. i
