DECORATION DAY.

Mr.. Samuel Mott has succeeded in persuad-
ing majority Of the business houses Of Homo
lulu that they ought to shut up shop next We'd
nesday and attend the exercises on Decoration
Day. Those exercises will be interesting to all
who have lost friends in battle anywhere; and
may be made of so beautiful and touching a
character that all who witness them may be
impressed by that "touch Of nature" which
"makes the whole world kim" In order to
make the decorations what is desired, contrib
utions of flowers are asked for; and may be
left at the hall Of George w. De Long Post,
adjoining the library, or at the drug store Of
Palmer < Thatcher. They may also be hand
ed to the driver of conveyance which will ac-
company the post en- route. 1t is hoped that
the advertisement in another column will be
studied and responded to.
The following firms and business and pro-
fessonal men have consented to close their
places Of business next Wednesday. Most Of
them will close for all day, and the others for
the afternoon; c. brewer & Co., A. ]. Cart

THE sEooND BENEFIT.

The second performance for the library
benefit. las, Saturday evening, was attended
by humiliatngly sparse audience. In some
respects the entertainment was more enjoyable
than on the previous evening. Through the
courtesy Of Mr.. III. A. Parmelee, magnesium
light was added to the rather dim radiance OF
the locomotive headlight, and the addition
brough, out the pictures with greatly increased
distinctness, though some in the audience
thought the former effect more pleasing. One
critic suggested that the tableaux and pictures
would have been more enjoyable II shown only
once and for longer time. In announcing
the names OF the portraits, Auctioneer Eli,
made clever hit, as follows "Mephistopho
les-an intimate friend Of some Of our mos
eminent statesmen" The gentleman who re
joices in the selfgiven title Of premier was sit
ting in the audience when Mr.. Ellis made thu
announcement and the palpable hit bsough
down the house. In the account Of Thursday
entertainment. Miss May Richardson VAS men
toned as taking part In the fortune telling por
trait. Miss Phobe Dowsett was the younl
lady who did take part. In the same accoun
Miss Jennie Robertson was mismentioncd q
Miss Clara Robinson. The benefit netted onl
about $3.50.
