"A NIGHT IN HONOLULU"

The eruptions of the volcano and
the fire scene in "a NIGHT IN HON
OLULU," which comes to the Opera
House for one night only next Wed
resday, March 23rd, is one of the
most spectacular efforts of the pro-
ducer for the stage in many years.
This is the reproduction of the active
volcano of Kilauea, which is located
at the side of Mauna Loa, elevated
about four thousand feet, the sum-
NIT of which is crowned by the mag
nifcent crater called Mokua-weo-weo.
At intervals for many years the lava
has rolled down with tremendous
bursts on one side or the other, to
the sea coast. The eruptions of Kill
auea form great fountains, spoutlng
immense sheets of flame and smoke
The light being plainly visible from
the sea for hundred miles or so. In
the wear of 1859 such a display oc-
Cured burning with terrific fury,
throwing up it's crimson lava and
white hot rocks and destroying miles
of valuable property. This crater, in
the legions, was supposed to be the
home of the goddess Of the volcanoes
and when these eruptions occurred
the natives feared the great wrath OF
this deity. In fact no one ventured
within it's shadow without an offer
ing to appease the anger'of this viii
full goddess. Young women were
sometimes thrown into the crater that
their friends might be, looked upon
favorably by Pele and her family
Numerous and interesting are the
stories that may be told. One OF the
greatest acts of courage ever per-
formed to break the Hawaiian's sup
erstition was that of woman who IN
her youth had been an intemperate
heather and desolate character. She
was known as Kapiolani, who AFTER
wards became model of virtue. Up

to the time of her act it was consid-
cred certain death to ascend Kilauea
and pluck the ohelo berries held sac
red for Pele. This woman convert
wanted the supersitious natives to
worship the true God and before the
awestruck people she made the jour-
ney from whence no other had ever
returned. About a hundred natives
inspired by her bravery, followed her
to the Black Ledge and watched her
descending over five hundred feet
and there in full view she hurled her
defiance at Pele throwing stones into
the burning lake, Kapiolani Knocked
the goddess as she ate the berries con
secrated to the deity. Turning to the
natives she cried: "My God is Jehov-
ah, it is He who has kindled these
fires. I call you to witness that if I
perish by the anger of Pele then she
your goddess, and you may live in
fear of her, but if my God preserves
me while mocking her taboos, then
you must serve him!' From that day
many natives were converted by the
Hawaiians- faith, but most of all
in loving their neighbors as them
selves.-adv.

PALMER OPINION
ESCAPES REVIEW

Washington, March 19.-Definite
announcement that former Attorney
General Palmer's opinion permitting
physicians to prescribe beer for meI-
ical purposes would stand unless
Secretary Mellon should ask for a
review was ma t. today by Attorney
General Daugherty. The attorney
general reiterated that except on re-
quest for review by the real of 4
department the department. IF JUS
:ice could not hand down reviews of
it's aipinions.
In connection with, the possible
transfer of the prohibition enforce
ment bureau from the treasury to the
department of justice as part of a
general department the attorney gen.
eral said he was not seeking any
additional authority but would ac-
cept such responsibility as congress
might place upon him.
Creation of a single intelligence
department to do the investigation
work of the government was advocat-
ed by the attorney general. Such a
force, he said, would give the govern
ment a very efficient set of men
which would be assigned to the va
rious departments as needed.
