BEST OF SEASON
Romeo and Juliet the Ja

Theater Crowded and Audience Enthusiastic
Excellence of Cast Memters-Catnile.
tluel scene was applauded to the echo. , leagues southwet of the city of Mexico
Mr. Hernan.iez' Peter was very
funny and brought down the hout?e
every time he yawned.
Miss Dover's Lady Capulet was dig
nified and well sustained.
Mr. Bong's made a capital Friar Law
rence. F. II. A.
WEARS A MEDAL.
The Janet Waldorf company at a
matinee on Saturday afternoon played
Camille to a reasonably good audience.
Miss Waldorf, although not up to her
usual mark, nevertheless gave a very
pleasing performance of Camille. The
scene with Geo. Duval where Camille
renounces his son, was strong and
tonchingly rendered. The death scene
was very realistic and pathetic, but her
face lacked the pallor of a dying con
sumptive and the hacking cough and
hoarse voice which have made Mod
jeska famous, are wanting.
Mr. McXay's Geo. Duval and Mr. Mc
Greggor's Armand Duval were excel
lent. The critical people of Honolulu were
evidently awaiting Romeo and Juliet,
which was performed on Saturday
evening, as the crucial test of Miss
Waldorf's genius. The opera house
was packed to standing room only in
both floor and gallery by the flower of
Honolulu.
Miss Janet Waldorf's Juliet was in
all respects equal, excepting, perhaps,
the balcony scene, to Julia Marlowe's
rendering of the role. The flirting
scene, at the dance, where she first sees
Romeo, and the potion scene were rem
iniscent of the divine Neilson. No
greater praise could be given.
The potion scene, where Juliet im
agines w hat terrors might come should
she awake before the time allotted,
while in the tomb of her ancestors, is
the most realistic thing she does. Ap
plause greeted Miss Waldorf through
out and she was three times called to
the curtain during the performance.
So excellent was her performance of
Juliet that on every hand Was heard
the comment that had Romeo and
Juliet been the first performance, the
success of the Waldorf company would
have been the most brilliant in the
annals of the opera house.
Mr. McVay's Mercutio is beyond
criticism. The part of Mercutio" re
quires good reading and this Mr. Mc
Vay did in the most finished style,
keeping the audience in .roars of laugh
ter. His death scene (joking to the :
last) was applauded.
Mr. McGregor's Romeo was played
with feeling and spirit and shows that
the young man has great talent. The
.Musician Who Volunteered to
Nurse Yellow Fever.
Frank Martinez, a member of the
Thirteenth Infantry band, now on
board the Senator, wears on his breast
a handsome Tiffany medal. Martinez,
although not an immune, volunteered
as a nurse in the yellow fever hospital
-at Siboney during the Santiago cam
paign. He was placed in charge of a
ward occupied by officers of the army
and newspaper men who were at the
front. A'bout twenty-five of his pa
tients who survived decided to reward
the brave fellow. All contributed to
the purchase of the pretty medal,
which has been wrought out of solid
gold. It is fashioned in a Maltese
cross pendant from an engraved bar
bearing the word "Santiago" in red
enamel. A hospital red cross on the
medal is wreathed with green leaves.
The four arms of the cross are lettered
with the following': "Siboney, Cuba,
July, 1S9S."

and as Professor Xivin's rich field is
also thit distance southwest of Mexi
co's capital, and as ruined villages are
numerous there, it is not improbable
that the famous treasure has been
found.

GOLD IN MEXICO.
CHILPANCIXGO, Mex., April 27.

ness. The vein is three feet wide and
assays $200 to $5,000 to the ton. The
region in. which this discovery was
made is covered with prehistoric ruins.
According to tradition Montezuma's
