About twenty times at the Crick-
ct Club smoker they sang all hanis
Giles a Jolly Good Fellow" All

c.s'on, but it was the score specially
honored that earned marked dis
tinction. This was by providing
entertainment for as pleasant and
congenial a company as ever gath
cred in house in Honolulu.
This was the second smoking
concert within six months given by
the Cricket Club and it was
thorough, unqualified success. The
Cricket Club has become a fixed
institution and the organization
and game have been popularized
by the attention given to the social
features. President Brasch was UNI
avoidably absent last evening. Mem
bers active in looking after the
comfort of guests were the Auer-
bach brothers, Capt. Hatfield, Rev.
V. II. Kitcat, A. st. M. Mackin-
tosh, Sam'l Levey, w. l.. Stanley,
Messrs. Sproull, Tom May, Danl
Logan and others.

smoker. As he remarked, he filled
the chair. Further than this he
kept the fun at the proper pitch
and from his station incidentally
directed distribution of the ample
and varied supply Of refreshments.

by Chas. McCarty, and it was pro-
nounced by all the judges superior

trios by Wray Taylor, Geo. Smithies
and d. l.. Marx. Mr. Taylor &C

half hour of legerdemain, clearly
outdoing both Prof. Leonard and
the magnetic woman.
Oscar Herold sustained his high
reputation as a musician by render
ing selection improvised for the
concert.
w. l.. Stanley gave a solo and
afterwards Thos. May and Mr..
Stanley sang "I.arboard Watch"
most effectively.
AS was expected, the hit of the
evening was made by Chester A.
Doyle in the catchy new vocal
craze, "The Band Played On" This
will capture the town. Mr.. Doyle
had very skillfully added a couple
of local verses and these were re-
ceived with great enthusiasm. The
one on cricket and the Honolulu
club was particularly clever. Mr..
Doyle also led in some chorus sing
ing.

ton in fine style.

Haze Wi Wallace Bled" in his usual
unique and pleasing manner.
