AT THE THEATERS i
Ilondod by William Farnum, in "The
Hrokon Law" the Ornhrum and
Lycpum promises programs for Uip
niiuiiiK Ytri-ii, wrii up io tnoir usual
lUsh standard, the followfriK is
synopsis of lending attractions.
William Farnum In "The Broken Law"
In "The broken Law" William Farn
urn Is cast as Daniel Esmond, an Enel
isli litterateur, who, loving the free
dom of the open way, joins a gypsy
mne ana nerause or personal worth is
chosen as their chief. Esmond has
received from his dying father a
strange request. Years before, the
rather had betrayed a young gypsy
maid, and than cruelly deserled her
and her baby girl. This wronged
woman and child, the father command,
ed Daniel to find. The only clue to
lh Ir Identity is a ring with the Es
mond signet given to the women by
her lover. Strangely enough this un
known half-sister is a member of Es
mond's tribe. Her mother, dying
when 1he girl I'rsula was it baby, con
fided her. together with the r'ng, to
a wild, uncouth creature named Cork
Iko. One day in the camp I'niula tells
he fortune of Lord Punran, a profl
igate and roue of the worst type.
I ; s,;li. tak"s his fancy and, without
Frru'de, he brings about the ruin of
the wayside beauty, liy the oontriv
Ings of Craspar, the crime is laid to
Esmond and he is branded and cast
out ot the tribe. Ursula is beaten
nigh unto death by her people and
driven to the fores:! to perish. Here,
just be) ore the end, she is found bv
Corkixo and Esmond, who at last has
learned (he truth. With her expiring
breath, the names her betrayer and
the new-found brother and Gorkiko
swear vengeance agr.'nst him. How
the oath was kept, ami what amends
Fate made to Esmond for the cruel
blows dealt him, makes one of the
most thrilling and absorbing film
dramas ever produced.
The Sower"
The captivating and sent'jiiental
Itlanehe Sweat is seen at the Maui
theaters during the first half of the
next week as Karin Da'.oklas in "The
Sower," and, incidentally, is seen in
a role that is entirely different to any
thing in whicli she has previously ap
peared. Miss Sweet, in this offering,
wears some exquisite gowns and regal
plumage and wears them "to the
manner born." It is seldom that this
star appears in a role calling for elab
orate costuming and her many ad
mirers will be delighted to see her as
a Russian girl of the court set. The
other female artist, Mabel Van Duren,
ft' so wears a number of gowns that
are best described as gorgeous.
"The Sowers" is a story of intrigue
and plot for the overthrow of existing
conditions in. Russia. A prince of the
royal house (Thomas Meighan), his
chancellor (Theodore Roberts) and
the daughter of the latter (Rlanche
Sweet), are working with the League
of Freedom. The prince loves the
daughter of his chancellor, but is
forced to marry a princess for politi
cal reasons. The princess, in love
with a member of the secret po'lee,
works for the destruction of her hus
band and his friends. It Is a story of
deepest interest, ably acted and pro
duced.
"The Crown Prince's Double"
Oslrau, a mythical principality In
tlie shadow of the l'yrenees, and A-
merlca furnish the scene of "The
Crown Prince's Doublo," a five-part
drama of mystery just undertaken for
production of the Vltagraph Company
under the direction of Van Dyke
Urooke. "The Crown Prince's Double"
was pieturlzed by Anna Mehring from
"The Riddle and the Ring," a popular
magazine story by Gilbert Patten, and
will present Maurice Costello iri the
dual role of Barry Lawrence, an im
petuous American and Prince Oscar,
the son of King Gustave of Ostrau,
Norma Talmadge as Shirley Rives.
and Anders Randolt as Karon Ilager.
Chief of the Ostrau Secret Service.
The remarkable resemblance of two
men furnishes the mystery elements
in the story, whose action fluctuates
the little European principality and
America.
"The Saleslady"
The Saleslady," by W'lliard Mack,
one of the most novel screen subjects
in wiiicli Hazel Dawn has ever been
starred by the Famous Players Film
Company, differs radically from any-!
thing in which this captivatin favor
ite has ever appeared, and embodies
real pathos hs well as genuinely de
lightful comedy. It is the fact of a
country girl whom poverty forces to
try her fortune in. New York. Upon
her arrival in the city her beauty at
tracts the attention of a band of vil
lains, who become instrumental in
subiectin her to a series of viclssit
udes that are strange, stirring and
dramatic in the extreme. A unique
fact connected with this unusual Para
mount Picture is the reproduction on
the screen of one of New York City's
greatest department stores, in which
many of the more important scenes of
the play occur.
"The Iron Claw"
Pearl White and her associates are
do ng some strong work in "The Iron
Claw" and it is probable that a voting
contest would declare this to be th
most popular serial thus far brought
to Maui.
"The Master Key"
"The Master Key" is a serial that
has the fans guessing and keeps them
in that state. The mysterious trunk
is opened in the present episode, and
these who have followed the story are
genuinely surprised.

What Will You Do
Lahainakia To Have
Commercial Course
There is room for 25 or SO more
boys at the Lahainaluna agricultural
school which is to open on September
25th. The school can accommodate
about a hundred and thirty-five pupils.
At present about a hundred and ten
have applied for entrance, making the
enrolment ten per cent larger than
last year.
Applications already received in
clude o::'? fi m i Kauai, five from Oahu,
four from Kol.ala and one from Kona.
The remainder are from Maui, Molokai
and Lanai.
Aa a ninth grade, a commercial de
partment is to be introduced there
this year, under the direction of O. II.
Sahr, w ho lain lit in the agricultural
' departnici't at term. The new de
partment will teach subjects related
to agriculture, making an effort to
train the boys as competent timekeep
ers and general assistants around the
sugar plantations and mills.
C. A. Mac-Donald, the principal, who
has been in the states on a six months'
leave of absence for his health, will
return in time to assume charge on
the date of tlie opening. The late
start of Lahaiualuna's i iiii is made
possible because the boys are given
very little if any Christmas vacation,
the institution seeking as little inter
ruption us possible in its year's agri
cultural instruction.
Go To Honolulu To
Fight Freight Rate
(Continued from page 3.)
the Inter-Island carrying business it
totally disregards the convenience of
the public and in this connection we
would ask that a comparison be made
between that company and the Hawaii
an Electric Company which has a
monopoly of the electric supply busi
ness in Honolulu and which has in
the face of increased costs of material
and labor materially reduced their
rates and improved thir service.
This committee wou'd be pleased
to furnish evidence bearing out the
statements made above and we would
respectfully request your commission,
to consider such matters and make
Buch revision of the tariff and such
regulations as to service as will rem
edy the matters complained of. ,
