YELLOW JACKET
ISPLAY GIVEN
BY MILLS BOYS
Juniors Of Manoa School In
Sketch BY Hazelton and
Benrimo

On Saturday evening the junior
class Of Mills school will present The
Yellow Jacket" Chinese play written
by two Americans, Ha1eiton and Ben
rimo. The play was first given In New
York three years ago and at once com
manded the attention OF theatergoerS
both for its novelty and for the charm
of its poetic romance. Since then il has
been enacted in the leading cities OF
Europe as well as America, and has
everywhere won q permanent place
in the regard of lovers Of the drama.
. The authors studied thoroughly the
ideas and conventions Of the Chinese
drama and have combined themes of
universal interest with the unique
method Of presentation common on
the Chinese stage. There Is almost
no scenery, changes Of scenes being
announced by the chorus. .
While the property man and his as
sistants, who are said to be quite in
visible, make mountains. raging rivers
or snow storms at, will out OF the
meager materials at hand before the
eyes of the audience. Thus the great
est appeal Is made to the imagination
of the audience.
The story is the familiar theme Of
the disinherited prince. A wicked
Mandarin who has two wives, plots
for the murder of the first wife and
her child that he may enjoy undisturb-
ed the love of the second wife.
But the farmer to whom the deed
is given to carry out, is devoted to
Chez Moo, the first wife. He kills in
stead the second wife's maid and
passes her of fer Chez Moo, Mean
while. Chez Moo fees to /the noun
tains with her child But spirit
from heaven requires that she give
her life for the child: for II found
together both will perish.
So she writes on his baby jacket
with blood from her finger and dies.
The farmer and his wife discover the
child and bring him up as their own.
Grown to manhood he demands the
true story OF his birth and contends
for his rights againstth his halfsbrother,
the second wife's son now In posses
sion of the Mandarin's throne. He y
aided in his conflict by the devoted
love of Plum Blossom. the maiden sof
his choice and the wise advice Of q
loyal philosopher friend. At length
triumphing over spiritual and physi
cal obstacles he wins his throne, dons
the yellow jacket of Office and places
Plum Blossom beside him. The play
is shot through with the wise ethics
of Confucius.
The play begins at. 1880 O'Clock.
Those who wish may attend.
Miss Harriet Congdon,s English in
structor at Mills who has coached the
boys in the play, gives them the re-
suit Of careful study of 1t and of
much experience with the amateur
drama among college students on the
mainland.

WOULD CONTINUE
LOCAL OFFICE Of
SECOND DEPUTY
Reported Recommendations
Urge Employment of Three
u. S. Court Clerks

Recommendations have been made
to the apartment OF justice in Wash
| ington, ID. G., that the office of sec
ond deputy clerk Of the local federal
court be made permanent, according 10
a well authenticated report which has
reached the Star-Bulletin.
The argument has been made, it is
understood. that the business of the
court Is rapidly growing and that three
men. a clerk and two deputies, are
really needed TO handle the work.
This increase has been especially no.
ticeable during the last two or three
years.
II Is now known that the position of
second deputy clerk is to continue
only until the next emolument returns
are made up, at which time the clerks
office VIII be In a position to show
just how much II is earning and the
amount of work II is doing. These
returns are to be made June 80, this
year.
The Star Bulletin has been informed
that on June 80, if it is shown by the
office that it, business has increased
to an extent which would justify the
addition the position of second deputy
clerk will be made permanent
II is reported that the recommends
tons which have been made to the
department of justice regarding the
permaneney of the office we're based
solely on the earnings of the office
and the business done since the first
Of the present year and that they do
not relate to the efficiency or quail.
fications of the present second deputy.
These requisites are not questioned,
says the report, as far as the depart.
ment Of justice is concerned.
The second deputy clerkship was
created first as typewriting position
under Walter Mailing. former clerk
here, but gradually became a position
offering steady employment. A. E.
Murphy. late clerk, was instructed to
discontinue the office about the time.
be was taken i'll, but the office con.
tinued during his Illness and is still
in effect. ~
tits reported that the department at
first disapproved of the appointment
Of Ray B. Rietow, present second dep.
uty,rsbut that ne Was constituted IN
Office at the request Of one of the
iederaI Judges. Upon the removal Of
Clerk Foster Davis a telegram was
sent 20 the department asking that the
second deputy clerkship remain in ef-
feet until June 80 of this year, the re-
port further states.

PARIS PAPER DlSLlKES
! IDEA OF WILSON IN
! ROLE OF MEDIATOR


PARIS. France, May 26.-The
Temps, one Of the most Influential
newspapers In France, In an editorial
leader printed this morning views
with disfavor the reports that Presi-
dent Wilson is considering offering
the services OF the United States to
bring the war to an end.
The editoi.-.s takes the position that
the United States and the present ad-
ministration has done nothing that
would give II q claim to interfere in
the war. In closing the writer says:
1t would seem, to Judge by what
we have heard in this country, that
President Wilson thinks his refusal to
pass judgment on the really vital
questions that have affected both neu-
trails and the belligerents in the war
has given him the right to intervene.
He should remember that to have toll
Grated the violation of the neutrality
Of Belgium does not create for him
the right to participate in the restor-
alton of that country"

kauai SUPPORTS
KAMEHAMEHA DAY
EXCURSION HERE
Garden Island Calls Upon Resi-
dents to liam Steamers
to Limit"

The visit OF Secretary Brown ito
Kauai resulted IN the rousiag OF much
interest In the Ramehameha Day pro-
gram In Honolulu. The Garden Island
says editorially:
AS we understand the matter the
idea behind the program TO be put
on at Honolulu June 1912 Is to revive
in q measure the past glory of Kane
hameha Day.
There are doubtless those among
us who feel that we have enough hol-
idays as IL is. But as matter OF
fact,-haYe we? Do we give enough
time TO Iairs and programs that are
essentially for the amusement and en-.
tertainment OF the public? Perhaps
we do not, and il We did we would
add much 10 our own pleasure In Nv
ing and enhance the enjoyment ex-
perienced by the visitor to our shores.
IF we are correctly informed. there
is nothing In this move to revive the
sports and festivities OF the former
June IL" that would detract from the
February carnival which has been SO
successfully built up at Honolulu. II
such there was we would hesitate with
our kokua; but We can plainly see
that there is room and occasion and
opportunity for both.
"All old residents will remember
the time distinctly when June H. as
II was called, was the greatest holiday
occasion OF the year. At Honolulu il
was given over largely to horse racing
the sport Of kings-which throngs
OF people from the islands attended
Sand enjoyed. II was the experience Of
years that the weather at that period
was ideal for outdoor sports, and fAy-
orable circumstances generally seem.
ed TO surround the day.
Restore Tune III Why. surely
For many decades II has been the one
distinctly Hawaiian holiday. and we
want to see its inst glory returned to
1t.
we hope that Kauai people will
bear in mind this effort to resuscitate
the interest that Formerly chung to
Kamehameha Day, and will jam to the
limit the two excursion steamers that
win leave our ports for the June 1912
program in the city"

STAND ON uNMovED PRINCIPLE.
tFrom the Hawaii Hochi.)

(FTOm the HAWAII E1Ocil.J
Before Germanism there Is no hu.
mainly nor treaty nor international
law. Necessity is the only life, justice
and liberty, and the great divine influ-
ence is included in this doctrine. This
is the sentiment of the German nation
of present day. This policy was re-
garded with great disapprobation by
the English and French before the
commencement of present war, and
now they are compelled to surrender
this sentiment.
When Germans trampled on Belgian
rights of neutrality at the beginning
of war the English government mobil.
ICED a great army and navy to protect
the right and liberty of Belgium, and
declared war, on Germany. But the
English themselves were compelled
