Maui who had turned ont in fall
force in honor OF the event, to the
number Of about 20.
BY the liberality of Mr.. Wilder,

and back, free Of charge. During
the evening excellent refreshments
were provided Ivy the charming hos.
tess, and the social success OF the

her and her able coadjutors, besides
the committee of exercises.
The first number on the pro-
gramme was an instrumental duet,
mandolin aud piano, ably executed
by Messrs. Jno. Anderson, jr., and
c. II. Dickey. The Rev. Mr.. Wes-
teryelt Of Wailuku read an exceed.
ingly interesting essay On the Cave
Dwellings of Colorado which was
intently listened to. The next fea-
ture of the programme was rcci-
tation, "Bregenz," charmingly rcn-
| dcred by Miss Alice Kimball, who

tidious lover OF music.
