large number of Makawao people
from honoring by their presence the
September entertainment of the
Makawao Literary Society.
The broad verandas of the pretty
Simpson cottage appeared luminous
with red, vel low and white lanterns,
the interior coy and inviting with
light and life, and the music at inter
walls, by little band of Hawaiians,
all contributed charm and brightness
to the occasion. The opening num-
Der Of the programme was a quar-
tette, "Come where my love lies
dreaming" by Mrs. Loveland,
Messrs. Dickey, Lindsey and Chas.
Baldwin.
The second event was a trio
Sweet Hour of Night" by Rev. MIR.
kapu and two others. Then
charming solo by Miss Mile Beck
with-"Waiting," by Willard, which
was honored, as is the custom when
ever this soloist favors Makawao
audiences, by an encore-when she
rendered that arch little song Sup
posing" Miss Hammond's humor
Gus reading "When / was boy"
caused much laughter.
Mr.. s. n. Bells singing OF "Caris-
sima" was greeted with recall. Then
the sweet and powerful tenor voice
of Rev MIR. Kapu of Waikiki gave
much pleasure in several native
melodies.
The seventh and last happening
was farce in one act entitled "The
Two T. Us" The characters were
Mrs. Tom Jarvis-Miss Hammond,
Mrs. Clapper = Miss Mossman,
Nathaniel Nokes-Mr. q. ii. Dickey,
The Detective-Mr. j. Hair, Tom
Jarvis-Mr. d. Lindsey, Themistoc-
les Judd-Mr. F. w. Hardy. A
brief synopsis of the plot will per-
haps be interesting: Themistocles
Judd, an author of grandiloquent
manner seeks throughout London
Tor quiet lodgings so that he may
complete a great work he has in
hand. Mrs Clapper, landlady
rents him the apartments OF Tom
Jaryis@ho is away for short time.
Ja--. as Judd has settled down for a
long evenings literary labor he is in
turn interrupted by angry Nokes
who Is in search of Jarvis who has
eloped with his daughter; by Tom
Jarvis and bride who return unex-
pectedly and demand the room; and
by a detective who has been sent by
Nokes to arrest T. j. for robbery,
etc. of his daughter. The irate
parent turns up at last-the MYSTERY
of the two T. J's. explained and all
is serenely settled by paternal bles-
sing.
There were many amusing situa-
tions In the play and the audience
seemed to appreciate the fun.
THE sPRECKELsvILLE DANCE.
1t seems and perhaps is some time
since Terpsichore held reception on
Maui, aud so it was when during the
early part of the week neat cards OF
invitation bearing the device-'Mr.
Center requests the pleasure of your
company, etc." f1uttered from post
Office to postoffice. A feeling OF sat
isfaction filed the souls of her many
yotaries, and Thursday evening, the
2Sth inst, witnessed one of the
largest and most successful dancing
parties of the year.
The train which brough
people from Waikiki, Kahului,
and Paia was rather late in arrival
and it was $50 PM. before floor man
ager w. Grother gave the word and
dancing feet beat time to the merry
music. The long veranda of Spreck-
elsyille hall festive with gay tints OF
oriental lights and the interior ella
borately decked with bunting, palm
leaves. and ropes of beautiful fern
gave smiling welcome to the incom-
ing guests. The floor was excellent
in its smoothness and the strlnged
hand behind q bower of green dis
conrsed inspiring music. Miss Ros-
allie Epos and Mr.. Biven also made
the occasion memorable with some
lively selections on the piano. VI
the IS or more present there was the
usual proportion of wall flowers (per-
hans better named on this occasion
veranda-fiowers), but there was also
a brave showing of dancing men and
what is more attractive-falr women
of whom Spreckelville itself contri-
butes an interesting coterle. An,
well.-at midnight fine spread OF
sandwiches and coffee, ice cream and
cake. etc, was laid on long tables IN
the dining room and at A NJ. 1t was
good-by" and goodnight"
