The Wreath is Still Victorious in the
Dance.

The Lei lima dance was a decid-
ed success in every respect, and
great credit is due the lady members
in their artistic decorating Of the
hall, which is about the prettiest
that has yet adorn Independence
Hall. BY o'clock the spacious hail
was crowded, and Judging from the
record of previous balls 1t was the
largest that has graced the spacious
floor, and there were fully over one
hundred couples on the floor to the
strains OF the music by the Quintet
Club. The officers and committees
were assiduous in their duty to
please all; they wore very neat
badges of white silk ribbon and
large yellow bows with gold tassels
and trimmings and lei lima, aud
the majority Of the members with
their ladies were in full dress. Those
that were unable to respond missed
an evenings enjoyment long to be
chrished by those that had the
happiness To be- present. The APP
proach of the New Year was hailed
with cheers OF congratulations
amidst the footing of horns, which
for space Of ten minutes kept every
body in laughter and merriment,
and the merry dancers repaired
into the spacious dining hall, where
an elaborate supper was laid, to APP
pease the cravings OF the inner man
and to which everybody did ample
justice. Supper consisted Of chicken,
hrIf nj n GAl "a al .l..as
cakes, biscuits, cookies, ice cream,
coffee, lemonade, etc, etc, and one
unique feature was the cracking OF
bon. bons. The merry dancers once
more entered the ballroom to dance
the Bon-bon iancers, each lady and
gentleman wearing paper cap.
Taking everything in all the affair
was a grand success, and it was one
OF the most orderly conducted al
fairs ever seen in Honolulu. The
