CUTTING FLUME
Use of FIume to, Carry Cane
is Alleged as Moving
~. Cause

! Especial Star Bulletin CQrrespOndence.l
lilo. April 2>.-That the cane
flume which was destroyed last week
Oy being cut down and thrown into
deep sUlch was so treated by Ger
tain nomesteaderS. is tn" o-iniun OF
the police authorities who have been
investigating the outrage.
Certain men have stated very plain
~ 10 Deputy Sheriff Martin thar While
they had no objection to the fUme
crossing their land, and none al all to
water going down the tmme, they had
very decided objections To any cane
being sent TO the Wainaku mill
through the flnme that traHersed their
lots. This admission and declaration
has been made in the presence OF the
deputy sheriff, bur none OF the MEN
could be induced to say that they had
any hand in the cutting Of the flunie.
One man is refforted TO have said that
no cane for the IIilu Sugar Company
should be all@wed TO pass over the
hOmeSteaders, 3land 10 the Wainaku
mll-"even if 3 gun had to be, used.
The police are loekins into this state
ment.
The cutting Of the flUmP was &C
complshed the night before the day
on which the cane belonging to
Japanese was to be flumed to the
Wainaku mill The fact that the cane
was to ne sent down to the mill in the
morning. was known to the ptOtters.
but they did not realize that there
were other ways of getting the cane
to the mill The evident object of
the outrage, say the police, was to
intimidate homeSteaderS who grow
cane. and prevail upon them to send
their cane TO another mill. The Jap
anese is alleged TO have stated that
his cane was ready for grinding, that
the price paid at the mill was salts
factory, and that he intended to flume
his crop to Wainaku. Then the ol-
position homestCaders are SAID to have
got busy and fixed things so that no
cane could be sent over their land.
They claim, it is alleged, that the Hilo
Sugar Company's flume has no real
right-of-way over their land and that,
anyhow they don't intend to allow
cane for Wainaku to cross their home
steadS.

Fresh from a years triumph in the
movies" Miss Maud Gilbert was
given an ovation upon her return to
the Poll Players last night in that de-
lightfully impressive satire on the fol-
bles of the smart set, Clothes" There
was no mistaking the genuineness with
which she was welcomed back. The
audience was insistent in it's demand
for curtain speech at the close of the
third act and finally got it. And as the
curtain rose and fell a score of times
during a melee of applause several
gorgeous armfuIs of roses were passed
over the footlights to Miss Gilbert. The
occasion was conspicuous also for the
appearance of several new faces in the
company. The daughters of two Wash
ington theater managers. Miss 1mogen
Fairchild, whose father is l.. Stoddard
Taylor, manager of the Belasco The
ater, and Miss Elizabeth Berger, the
daughter of Mr. Polls Washington
manager, augmented the cast. Miss
Berger returning to the stage after an
absence of several years.
Aside from the personal interest in
the cast, the audience found much of
interest in the play, which afforded
Grace George starring vehicle for
long New York run. 1t might be said
of view regarding dress and society,
and the applause from the masculine
members of the audience was notice

Film Features.
Loew's Columbia

Lenore Ulrich, whose beauty and
charm have won her high rank in the
films as they did upon the legitimate
stage. is pictured this week at Loew's
Columbia Theater as a Mexican senori-
ia in The Heart of Paula" an inter-
esting photoplay production which has
two climaxes. one a tragedy and the
other where all ends happily, the hap
py ending being shown by vote OF the
audience.
Stephen Panchmann, a young mining
engineer, is about to be sent to turbu-
lent Mexico by a large concern inter-
ested in a big mine. His brother-in-law,
Bruce MacLeau, however. persuades
him to remain with his wife, safe from
harm. and let him undertake the jour
ney. In Mexico he meets and falls IN
love with Paula, who is loved by
bandit chief by whom the young Amer
lean is captured and is about to be put
to death. when Paula saves her lover
by consenting to marry the bandit. She
is rescued herself. however, in time to
save her from that fate. The story
is thrilling and the pictures clear cut
and excellent. Burton Holmes films
and photocomedies make up the re-
mainder Of the program.

danger. On moonlight nights the crew
played foot ball on the ice. although
the games often were interrupted by a

ice was threatening the ship, and that
the launching of the sledge might be
necessary at any moment. -
AS the ship drifted farther north
