Show THE CITIZEN 16 JIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIHIL phant, the hippopotamus, and the rhin- ing story of the . Hawaiian Islands, might go on forever. Now in its tenth year, it returns to the Salt Lake theatre next week commencing Monday evening, December 27, with matinees on Wednesday and New Years. The theme of the play is that of the folly of marriage between the white and the brown races and the tragedy that grows out of it. Its atmosphere is that of Hawaii in the days before the annexation to the United States and it pictures the life of the Hawaiian people, the simple, child-lik- e Kanakas, with their singing, their dancing, their eating and their sloth, with their generous hospitality, and their superstition beneath the veneer of Christianity. As to the configuration of the country, near and remote from the cities and setlements, the scenery employed is the most atmospheric of its kind. In building a new production for the present tour of the play, Mr. Tully has the picturesque features to which the subject of the play lends itself, by elaborating on the big moments of the play, notably the spectacular finale in which the unhappy Luana casts herself headlong into the fiery crater of Kilauea, which is said to be the most realistic and effective scene ever attempted on any stage. Under the personal direction of Richard Walton Tully, a splendid cast of players have been assembled. Florence Rockwell, who has already endeared herself to the hearts of theatregoers through her interpretation of Hawaiian Luana, the princess, will again be seen in the title role. Robert Brister has the leading male role of "Wilson, Brandon Evans, will again enact Dean, the beachcomber, and Gertrude Walthers is said to make a charming Diana. Others in the cast include Rose Watson, James Applebee, Frank L. Cooley, Gladys Kingsbury, and the native quintette of Hawaiian singers and players, with their music give an atmospheric charm to this more than delightful play. oceros. Dont Follow In the marshes of prehistoric times dwelt a host of reptiles, some large, some small, and of various forms, flesh eaters and herb eaters, but all sharing certain characters in common and known as dinosaurs. Not any were closely related to any living reptile, yet they had some characters common to the lizards, crocodiles, and birds. Of the kinds characteristic of the period one species, a herb eater named Trachodon, was more than thirty feet long and about fifteen feet high when standing erect. Its head, with broadly expanded mouth, resembled that of a duck, but back of the beak there were more than two thousand small teeth, disposed in many vertical rows, each containing several individual teeth, the new ones coming up from below as the old ones wore out. The long hind feet terminated in three large hoofed toes, and the shorter, slender front feet were partially webbed. A long, thin, slender tail acted as a powerful swimming organ, and the body was covered with rough skin. Having no means of defense, it lived chiefly in the water, where it vras free from attacks, of the deep-seate- d ed At Strange Gods jj Bukin I of the Republic i Main and 2nd South Street SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH 5 Paifectiaa -- s s f. lMpactloa" Service it Our Highest call that leads to Extravagance.

It was probably a distinctly aquatic type. Along the shores lived Ornithomi-mus- , the bird mimic, as the name implies, one of the most remarkable of the dinosaurs.
