What's in a Kiss.

A laughable story is told on an
uptown society girl, who is as sweet
as she is innocent and unsophisticat-
ed may be judged from the story it
self. A few nights ago she attended
reception in company with young
man to whom, rumor says, she is en-
gagged to be married. Conversation,
during one of the pleasant hours of
the evening, turned upon a discus
sion OF songs, from the popular airs
of the day to compositions of CLASH
cal nature. The young lady in
question, who happened to be sit
ting besides her fancee, listened with
interest to the praises Of different
songs. Finally, in an earnestness
Of voice which attracted attention,
she blurted out, "Well, l don't think
any of them are as sweet as What's
in Kiss do you, John" turning
her unaffected and deeply interested
gaze on her future liege lord. Poor
John saw the break made in the use
of the title OF very pretty song,
even if the young lady did not, and
he blushed q crimson red as he
heard general litter in the room.
The conversation turned on some
thing else.-The People.

THE LEGISLATURE.

Our reporter was not present yes
terday, owing to financial obliga-

from the other papers, to whom our
thanks are due: The Honolulu
Library and Reading Room Associa-
ton petitioned for exemption from
$4,000 assessed taxes for 1894. Re-
ferred to Finance Committee. Com
mittee on Commerce rep 7rted favor
ably on the low-grade Kerosene
Withdrawal Act and on the Cur
rency Act. The latter was made to
have gold and silver deposits against
notes inconvertible. The cable en-
abling Act passed third reading
Senator McCandless asked of the
Minister of Foreign Affairs il any
demand had been made on the Gov
eminent arising out of arrests made
during the January uprising Sena-
tor Brown thought information of
that nature ought to be kept secret.
1t was impolitic to make it public.
The Minister did not reply. Several
bills we're reported as having been
handed to the President for sigma
ture. The Senate then adjourned.

Sans SOuCi.

The most lovely spot on Oahu is
Sans Souci. This favorite seaside
resort, which has been immortalized
by the pen of Robert l.. Stevenson,
who resided there for months, is
only four miles from Honolulu and
within easy reach of the tramcars.
The surroundings and bathing at
this famous resort are superior to
anything found in the Hawaiian
Islands. Cottages and board can
be obtained on easy terms. The
table set by the manager is better
than any offered here at other no.
tells. For picnics, bathing parties
and outings the best accommodation
can be secured by giving notice to
the manager.
