QUEEN.

The detailed description of the
performance of the Flower Queen"
in Honolulu in the late papers was
of more than passing interest to
many of this burg, as the same can
tata was in preparation here and
was given in the court house on
Saturday night last to a large
and enthusiastic audience. Mrs.
Loebenstein presided at the piano
and the music of the various parts
was we'll rendered. The ladies and
young misses were decorated fit
tingly in the costumes representing
various flowers. The Queen of the
Night, Miss Mary Rose, represent
ed the rose.
This cantata was followed by
another, THE Grasshopper sat on
a sweet potato vine," which pro-
voked much amusement, especially
among the Juveniles. The enter
tainment was on the whole a great
success and the sum of fifty dollars
has been added to the town hall
fund.
A white man by the name of
Henry c. Garter, who has been in
the islands for two months only,
and has held the responsible posi-
ton of luna on one of the planta-
tions out in the country, has i'm
bibed the teachings of the anti
annexationist party most thorough
ly, and parades the streets, voicing
royalist sentiments wherever the
chance offers. He congregated lot
of natives on Wednesday down
nearly opposite the saloon and
harangued them, for quite a while.
His bombastic utterances met with
encouragement from the natives
and he afforded them amusement
rather than assistance in advocat-
ing their cause.
The usual monthly social of
the Foreign church was held
at the residence of Mr.. and Mrs.
Terry, at the Hilo boarding school. |
The entertainment, which was
good one, was enlivened by the
brass band of the school which
played a number of selections. A
pleasant evening was passed.
Mr.. Date has been appointed to
the position of japanese inspector
for the district to fill the office of
Mr.. S. Kimura, resigned. Mr..
Date, during his former occupancy
of the office, created a very favor
able impression upon both the
managers and the laborers, and it
is to be expected his former sue
cesses will be continued. He is an
afable gentleman, and takes an
active interest in church and school
work.
A large riding party was out on
night enjoying the moon
light and the ride through the vol
oano woods. After the excursion the
was at the house of the
Misses Scott, where the rest of the
evening was pleasantly passed.
About twenty constituted the party,
and repetition is talked of for
lext turn of the moon.
Mr.. w. A. Hardy, the new dep
lty sheriff, arrived with his wife
IN the Kinau. He has been in
stalled in his office, and is getting
nto his duties rapidly. t
DR.. Moore, who has been very I
busy here for the past month, left |
or Kau on an urgent call from that t
,lace, and expects to be away two
weeks. He will return here to fin
sh the work he left behind.
Mr.. G. NJ. Walton has been ap- @
'ointed manager of Waihee pIanta- :
ion on Maui, and left on the last t
teamer to take charge. He has "
cen head overseer for Mr.. Goodale Il
Or a number of years on the Ono 7
lea Sugar Co.'s plantation at Pa "
aikou, and his efficiency has
aimed for him merited advance
lent. His many friends here wish
i'm every success in his new posi-
on. II
