Decorated.
At the Hawaiian Hotel Thursday even
ing was gathered a large and brilliant
assemblage to ball given by Major w
ii. Cornwell in honor of his daughter
Miss Blanche Adele.
Early in the evening the Royal Ha.
waiian Band enlivened the occasion in
the Hotel park with music that can be
rendered only by these favorites of Ha-
wall. The orchestra of the band also
furnished the music for the dancing
which was kept up and thoroughly en-
loyed by all till late hour, the evening
being cool and inviting.
Electric lights shone among the
branches OF the trees in the park, which
with Japanese lanterns strung from the
flag pole, gave the grounds a beautiful
appearance. Along the front of both the
lower and upper verandas of the hotel
were lastly arranged Japanese lanterns,
| adding splendid effect to the building.
Upon entering the hallway the guests
| passed under an arch OF palm leaves.
while on the lower veranda were placed
numerous small palms, ferns and other
| evergreen plants. The halls were mark
ed oil with the same, while numerous
large punches of flowers added both
fragrance and beauty to the occasion.
The spacious dining rooms were lastly
arranged Tor dancing. The chandeliers
were Wreathed with MALE vines and
ferns, while wreaths OF the same were
stretched from different parts OF the cell
ing. On the mauka side of the larger
dining room were fastened palm leaves
and flowers forIniDg a pretty ever
green effect, with two banks of
ferns and vases of flowers. Hawaiian
flags overhung the entrance to the
dancing hall, while above them were
palm leaves formed into star. 1t has
been long time since the hotel has
been so prettily decorated. The work of
decoration was under the supervision of
Mr.. Paul lsenberg, from whose residence
were taken the many ferns, small palms,
etc. To Mrs. Widdifeld belongs great

ments.
Socially it has been the event of the
season. The costumes OF the ladies would
vie with those of any court of Europe, or
any ball room Of America. The time was
passed as only such an event can be
passed. Refreshments were served by
