Ignorance Vast
Among BOlSheviks

PARIS, April 19-(By Associated
Press)-Bolshevism, in the ~untutored
mind of the Russian ~proletariat, is a
system under which everybody has
plenty of money and one needs to
work only two or three hours a day,
writes a special correspondent of
LIntransigeant from Russia. The
money they needed, the moujiks were
told, they would find in the factories,
and all they would have to do would
be to go and get it. Disappointment
awaited them in most cases, for the
great majority of the manufacturers
were ruined, and the Office cash, boxes
were general empty. The next course
was to seize the proprietor by the
throat. Where is our money!" they
would demand. THE money that
we've earned by our sweat and
blood?"
One plant owner answered that he
had no money, and offered to prove
by his books that he had not even
enough to keep body and soul to-
gether.
The men fumbled through the
books; but being ignorant of the rule
of three, they could not understand
the entries. Then somebody found an
entry of two million rubles under
MOrtgages the Russian for which
is "Amortizatzia."
What is this?" they demanded
%furiously. "Amoritzatzia must be the
name of a woman. She has gotten
u money. Who is she? Where is
she?"
The unfortunate employer vainly
attempted to explain. The mob gave
him five minutes to Confess" after
which he was shot against his factory
wall.

Big Time Stuff
Enjoyed In Maui
Excellent Vaudeville Comes To Valley
Isle From Joy Zone And Will Play
Until Sunday -Fiye Lions Bring
Thrills
BV TIL FORE

Maui's lucky star was in the as
cendant this week, when her citizens
had an opportunity of enjoying a
three-act vaudeville show which play
ed its initial performance at the Wal
luku Orpheum. Manager Johnny
Carroll who saw it at the Fair,
thought those in Maui who were un.
able to get to the Fair should have
some of the Fair brought to them,
and it was through his good offices
that Maui was enabled to view one
of the best shows that has ever been
seen here.
OF course when the five lions were
advertised to show, every child on
the island was agog, and the animals
were well worth seeing. They are
about the los magnificent animals !
have ever seen and kept their trainer,
Capt. Batty busy watching them at
all times. They did several fine
stunts and Captain Batty showed his
control over them in excellent shape.
One could virtually hear the thrills
chasing up the youngsters spines.
A big time act was staged, to the
delight of hungry the%atregoers of
Maui in the original acrobatic dane
ing speciality of Alec and Dot Lamb.
This couple claim to come direct from
the Orpheum circuit on the mainland,
and after seeing their act, one will
readily yield to them the truth of
their assertions. Mr.. Lamb showed
wonderful muscular control and
strength and surprised his audience
by his feats. The team worked in
perfect accord and with the addition
of beautiful back drops to assist
them put over a pleasing and pic
turesque performance.
Probably the act that pleased the
Riddles most, outside of the lions,
was the Deaves Manikins. The pup
pet show is coming into it's own in
eastern theatres once again, SO that
Mr. Deaves is presenting to his Maui
audiences a feature that is gaining
considerable attention on the main
land. AS advertised, it was a show
in itself and the work was so smooth
ly and excellently done that one for
got at times it was only puppets be-
ing worked by strings.
Altogether we are glad that the
show came to town. 1t will play at
Paia tomorrow and at Puunene on
Sunday. A special exhibition of the
lions will be made on Sunday after
noon, at Puunene.
1t is regrettable that the opening
night at the Orpheum did moi afford
a better house to these artists, who
deserve a full house for their excel
lent work.

INFLUENZA GOT US
BUT SMALLPOX NOT

PARIS, April 2S-(By Associated
Press)-The world war will be held
unique in the fact that it has not
been accompanied by an outbreak of
smallpox. This may be due in past
to the precautions taken in urging all
Paris to be ~vaccinated or ~re-vaccinat-
ed. At any rate more than 1,374,000
persons were v%accinated during the
war, and only Sc cases of smallpox
were recorded, of which 26 were fatal.

Proved to be His Old Tire.

Strange how some persons can
recognize their own, even to an auto
tire. Last winter P. M. Swartz, Ok
ford, then living in East Nottingham,
had his auto parked on South Third
street. On the rear was spare tire
that had been vulcanized by himself.
Somebody wanted spare tire and
relieved Mr.. Swartz's car of the ad-
ditional burden. It was gone sure,
at least no signs proved otherwise.
Last week car pulled up in front
of Mr.. Swartz's home on Addison
street and the tire on the rear looked
like his old friend. On close inspec-
tion it proved the case and Mr.. s..
proved it fully to the owner of the
car. The tire had been sold in Phil
adelphia and was purchased by the
gentleman who had just traded in
his car for new one.-Oxford Press.
