But what of President Felix Faure's deathY The
popular president of France had died suddenly and mys
crousy in 1899, when the excitement over the revision

friend of Nine. Stenhe. These facts alone were suf-
ccn when the murders occurred to give rise to all
kinds of wild specuations concerning Nine Stenheils
relations with the President.
When she wrote her Memoirs after the trial she
described very frankly her intimate friendship with
President Faure She said that he consulted her about
grave political questions. She told how generous the
President had been in procuring lucrative commissions
for her poor husband She confessed that she was &C.

that the she visited him the day of his death

necklace still in her possession may have led to the
horrible murders and attempted robbery in her house.
1t may be added that the mystery of the murders in
the Impasse Ronsn remains mystery to this day.

ONOLULU'S introduction this
II morning to the Monte Carter
Musical Co., at the arrival of
the Wilhelmina, would have made a
great hit in Hilo-and it did not fail
ito get over" here.
Supplied with Japanese paper UNI.
brellas, upon which we're the letters
necessary to spell the company's
name, the members of the troupe
were lined up on the main deck of
the Matson steamer, screened for a
few moments from view of the curl
GUS as she locked. But whoever was
responsible for the alignment of the
umbrellas got his letters mixed. The
result was that the combination re-
sembled a mainland attempt to spell
ukulele or "honi kaua wikiwiki."
There are 25 members of the must
cal comedy company and according
to press and verbal reports it pre-
sents some excellent entertainment.
The same old Monte Carter, as &C.
tive and enthusiastic as ever, is at
the head of the troupe, as he was of
the one he brought here four years
ago. The only other members of the
present company who were here be-
fore are George Weiss and Miss
Blanche Gilmore. Fourteen of the
troupe are women. .':
The Carter company has been play
ing for So weeks in Seattle, after a
long run in San Francisco and nearby
California cities. Shortly after he
was here Carter took his company
