MANY TROOP TRAINS
PASS THROUGH RICHMOND
Railroads BesicEed by Fricnd. of
Drafted Men Seeking Forbidden
Information.

Twelve troop trains loaded with re-
cruits for the new National Army
passed through Richmond Yesterday on
their way to Camp Lee, at Petersburg.
Ever since this last troop movement
began on September 10 the railroads
have been besieGed by men and wo-
men, who have relatives among tho
conscriDts called from other States,
asking to know when the trains or,
which their kin are travelling will
reach Richmond. that they NAV
greet them at the stations
Owing to the orders issued by the
war Department at Washington. the
railroads are forbidden to give out anv
information as to the time Of arrival
OF troop trains, or the routes over
which they are travelling. Furthermore.
no troop trains except those on which
the men are to be fed here, are run
through the city. For these reasons IT
is impossible for the railroads to give
the information desired.

Tor me iair which opens October to

added office forces busily engaged In
checking the huge number of entries
that swamped Manager w. Conway

for the annual exhibition are progress

OF the arrangements to believe that
all records Will be broken this year in
the number and the character of the

interesting and instructive exhibits and
should present some of the most at
tractive spectacles ever staged there
Unusually beautiful booths are being
constructed by the exhibitors and many
novelties in the way of displays will
be offered when the fair formally
opens. The operation of exhibits,
showing the manner OF manufacture of
various products IN which practically
everyone Is interested. should be most
attractive.
One of the sections that probably
will hold the attention of all fair Wis
itors Will be that in which the va
rious automobiles will be shown Spe-
cial arrangements arc being made by
the exhibits this year of q much high
err standard than ever attempted be-
fore. Co operation is the plan which
is heing followed. and the various ex-
Eibitors have combined their efforts
and displays in an effort to give the
combined exhibits the appearance of a
real automobile show. No ratings will
be used TO enclose any of the displays
and only the NEST advanced models
will be shown. Many exhibitors will
display sectional parts of the machines
while the operation os cars will be
shown convincinEly
In keeping with the many other i'm
provcments to be made this year by
the fair management for the bereflt
of the public is the oillng OF all roads

ton Of the asphalt midway. Work
already IS well under way on these
enterprises, and it is believed that there
will be minimum Of dust to handi-
cap those who visit the annual exhibi-
ton. Not only will the disagrceable
dust be eliminated. hut walking VIII
be made much easier and those who
take In the fair will he enabled to DO

CROWDED HOUSE
CERTAIN TONIGHT

A duet sung in Hawaiian by two
Hawaiian women will be offered as q
new entire act feature at the perform
ance of "Umi.a-Liloa" at the Opera
House tonight. The melody and words
are of the genuine old-time style and
were composed and arranged num-
Der of years ago.
The songs and meles of the play
are all in Hawaiian, but the spoken
words of the dialogue are entirely in
English, so that the story of the play
is easily understandable to tourist and
kamaaina alike. -. s..<.
Those who attended the perform.
ance OF the play last time received so
much more than they expected in the
way of amusement that it is certain a
packed house will again greet the
players of the Royal Dramatic Club
when the curtain rises this evening.
The dramatic interest of the play is
well sustained, rising to climaxes
which contain a real thrill at the end
OF the second and third acts, and the
actors were repeatedly encored at the
first performance.
The costuming, too, is excellent and
wholly faithful to the time repre-
scented, nearly three centuries ago.
Some real kappa is used and the de-
ficiency is made up with clever imi-
tation which looks exactly like the
real from the other side of the foot
lights. Real kappa Is too rare to be
used throughout. The material which
is used to simulate the old-time
feather cloaks and helmets Is also well
chosen. The court regalia of yellow
and red feather eloaks makes a bril-
liant picture on the Opera House
stage. II, III ..@r.
The quaint old customs of that ear
lier day afford many moments of in.
terest throughout the play. The Hai'
waiians had a civilization of their own
for which not even a modern nation
would have cause to blush. 1t is the
aim of the dramatic club to present a
number of plays showing the manner
OF life of old Hawaii, with the avowed
object of correcting the mistaken
minds of those who class the Hawaiian
race of long ago with such sayages
as the Gilbert or Solomon islanders OF
today. "
Seat reservations for 'Umi-a-Liloa"
