WHEN WENT OUT,
The Lei lima Club and Theil
Friends Danced.
Successfur Party At Ind dependence Hall
Artistic Decorations and An EIab-
crate Supper.

The Lei lima boys gave the old
year grand good sendof at their so
cial at Independence Hall New Years
Eve. The event was a success in
every respect.
Great credit is especially due the
lady friends of the club for the decora-
tions, which were artistic and beauti-
ful. Draping the entrance were two
Hawaiian flags. The front of the or
chestra stand was covered with q large
national flag, while above the musi-
clans were the words Lei lima"
arched in yellow letters, with white
background. The colors of bunting
were draped from the center of the
hall to the four corners. The center
piece was q large basket covered with
yellow and white flowers. Over the
door to the dressing room the HaWa-
iian flag, with yellow and white bunt-
ing, were draped, caught up in artistic
arches with punches of ferns and
sprigs of green. Quantities of ferns
| and palms covered the pillars, forming
arches of green all about the hall.
By o'clock the hall was crowded,
and fully 100 couples were on the floor
when the light strains of the Hawa-
| iian Quintette club were heard for the
opening dance. The officers and COM
mittees and the majority of the mem
bers were in full dress. The commit
tees wore very neat badges of white
| and yellow silk ribbons, with gold
tassels and trimmings. At u O'Clock
there were horns footing and happy
congratulations, after which every
body repaired to the spacious dining
room, where sumptuous repast was
laid out for the merry dancers.
The dancing was kept up till long
after o'clock. Taken as a whole, it
| was one of the most successful and or
derby affairs OF the season, and the
members of the club have reason to
| congratulate themselves. The club
was started last May by twenty five
| enthusiastic young men, who desired
to dispel the dry monotony Of He
| nolulu dizziness. Since Independence
Park was built it required more than
twenty-five members to meet the nee
essary expenses at q nominal rate, and
in October the club was reorganized,
and now has over sixty members.
| Although the name may not be con-
| spicuous one, its members comprise
most Of the young society gentlemen
of this city.
Among the guests present were Mr..
and Mrs. J. N. Wright, Mr.. and Mrs.
F. Brown, Mr.. and Mrs. ID. Dayton,
Mr.. and Mrs. Cunha, Mr.. and Mrs. J.

The New Year was given a royal re-
ception by Honolulu residents.
The festivities and merriment be-
gan early Monday evening and did not
cease till a late hour last evening.
There were weddings and New Year
picnic parties galore, while many of
the native families entertained at the
usual elaborate luaus.
During the morning and late after
noon yesterday good many gentle
mon revived the custom Of New Year
calls. There was q general expression
among many Of the ladies Of the city
favoring the revival of this custom,
which has of late years fallen into
a sort of innocuous desuetude.
The principal reception of the after
noon was at President Dole's, from 9
to S. The president marked with
Measure the cosmopolitan character
of those who called, it being a thoro'
ughly representative gathering. AL
Aaembers of the diplomatic and consu.
lar corps were present and wished
the chief magistrate and Mrs. Dole
many happy returns Of the day. The
band was stationed on the lawn, AND
furnished an excellent programme.

TROO THEATRICAL BOARDS,
Play at the Brown Residence New
Years Eve.
a amateurs Who Won Attention -
"sEOwbau' Given = Thoroughly
Successful Presentation.

( Perhaps no more favorable place
Than the residence of Mr. j. X. Brown
Fat Waikiki could have been selected
Eight o'clock found a very large
and decidedly "swell" audience
gathered under the large lanai, in
front of a red curtain that hid from
view the place where a play called
1.-THE SNOWFALL" was to be acted.
An orchestra Of native boys sta
toned back of the audience furnished
delightful music during the evening.
After selection by the orchestra,
the curtains were drawn aside and the
feature Of the evening was soon in
progress.
'The Snowbalp' is very spirited
and decidedly amusing play in three
acts, and affords a great opportunity
for good acting. It is the story of the
family troubles of one of the "boys,'
who tries to get the lest Of his wife
and fails most acknowledgements
once, only to become plunged deeper
and deeper into disgrace by the clever
maneuvers Of his scheming wife.
The parts Of Felix Featherstone,
| who Is in hard luck, and Mrs. Feath-
| erstone, who never for an instant ac-
knowledges herself beaten by her hus-
band, were played respectively by Mr.
]. F. Brown and Mrs. WV. Dimond
Between these two there is q constant
fire OF scathing words, and only in the
| feet of his wife, does the battle cease
Mr.. Brown was exceedingly funny in
his part, causing numerous ripples Of
laughter. His troubles gathered az

Penelope, the maid in Felix's home
was played by Mrs. e. d. Tenney
Her part was a very difficult one, but
she succeeded admirably in the inn

all the money she could, and finally
when she saw things were all coming
her way, she unhesitatingly made
herself mistress of the house. Hel

W-iS BORN HERE.
Rev. John r. LenRhan Dead.

Waterbury, Dec. 1S.-Rev. John F.
 Lerahan, pastor of St. Francis parish in Naugatucll, died this morning at
 S:07. He was born in New Haven June 10, 1851, and was forty-four years old. He received his classical educa-
 ton at St. Charles college, Baltimore,
 and studied theology at St. Mary's sem
 mary, Baltimore. He was ordained a
 priest in December, 1876, at Baltimore
 by Bishop Thomas Becker of Whining
 ton, Del. He celebrated his first mass
 in St. Mary's church in New Haven
 He was a curate of St, Mary's Star of
 the Sea church, New London, Conn.
 fo- seven years. He was then appointed
 to the pastoraN of St. Lawrence
 church in Hartford. He remained there
 appointed pastor of St Francis parish in Naugatuck by Bishop McMahon. He leaves two brothers, Timothy Lenahan of St. Paul. Minn, and Hugh Lenahan of New Haven. His mother, who is seventy-five years old, is also
 living, and was at his bedside when he died. He will be buried in New Fa- ven.
 Last evenings Waterbury American says:
 Father Lenahan was generally liked loy his congregation, some of whom were much attached to him. He was an especial favorite with children, fo9 whom he had a great liking. He had good executive abilities, and was ra- garded as 8, shrewd and skiIlful man.
 ager in every matter appertaining to 1 the financial interests of the church. He had greatly improved the church property since he came here, having laid out the St. James cemetery near | Cotton Hollow, and having fixed up the rectory and the grounds of the church. He bought the house on the south side
 of the church sometime ago for $10, ,000 intending it probably as a new rectory l In all matters of public interest il! which he was called to play any part he endeavored to act for the welfare ol the whole community. During his pas. | torate in Hartford he greatly improved l the church property there and left its affairs in a fourishing condition. l The funeral will take place at ten
 o'clock on Saturday morning next
 when it is expected Bishop Tierney ot
 Hartford, assisted by three priests, will 1 officiate. Father Lenahan's successor l will be appointed by Bishop Tferney

introduced in regular form, were all re- ported unfavorably, l was never told why, and presume we shall all be left to guess, but you can rest assured that the agricultural interests of the state had nothing to do with the unfaVorable reports in 1895 and only as side issue anything to do with the defeat of the bill favorably reported in 1893, Show the business men in New Haven the increase in taxable valuation of the lands of the state from keeping sheep, and you need not tell them about the splendid lamb and mutton that you can put on their tables; nine out of ten of them will enthusiastically favor the protection of sheep and stand ready to bear their share of the cost.
 Allow me to repeat that protection
 for sheep, such protection as will make sheep keeping anything but extra haZ- ardous in any town within half dozen miles of a manufacturing village, will not come until the farmers say it must certainly not until they are willing,
 The opposition to proper laws for the protection of sheep has not come from the dog fanciers, the owners of yalua- ble dogs, nor from the man that makes a friend or pet of his dog. It comes from the owner of the cur that is not cared enough for to be furnished shel- ter, and that sleeps at night on the leeward side of the woodpile or such better shelter as he may be lucky enough to find.
 The owner of such a dog always makes the claim that he wants him loose as g. guard. He would come near er the truth if he said he did not want to go to the trouble of putting him un-
 der cover at night, and so long as you elect such dog owners members of the l general assembly you need not expect any material change in the dog laws. ! While I am not situated so that l can keep sheep, there are farmers in Con necticut located so far from cities, bor-
 oughs and manufacturing villages that sheep can safely feed upon outlying | land and for such there was never a | better time than the present for start | ing a flock. The reports of the depart ment of agriculture show that the val
 ue of the sheep in the United States in l 1888 was $S9 ,279 926. There was little
 over a million dollars increase in the
 next year, but from 1889 to 1893 the in- | crease was nearly nine million dollars
 per year, the total value then being
 $125, 909, 264, A year later this value was
 reduced to $S9, ,186, 110, a little less than
 it was in 1888. No sane man doubts
 that this loss of nearly $40 OO0O, 900 will
 come back, and the man who in the
 meantime has grown up a flock of shesp will profit thereby.
