n With the arrival OF the Mexican cor
vette Zaragoza in port Honolulu society
may be said to have taken new lease
of life, which it is to be hoped will not
die an ignominious death when the gay
cavaliers from Mexico are out on the
ocean blue, speeding away toward Jap
an, the beginning of which event has
been postponed from today until some
time Sunday. The past week has been
devoted almost entirely to the enter
tainment of the Mexican guests, and
below will be found some of the prin-
cipal events given in honor of Admiral
Monasterio and others of the Zaragoza.
Bright and early Friday a party to
the Pail was given by Mr.. and Mrs.
Renjes, with Mrs. Neumann, Mrs. Suhr,
Misses Finckler, Grau, Agnes Walker,

Monasterio, Captain Miguel Pozo, Lieu
tenants Baez and Gonzales and F. A.
Schaefer present. Upon returning
luncheon was served at the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. Renjes, Nuuanu. ~
On Saturday number OF the Mexican
and Austrian officers took in the Lucas
luau at Niu, in company with some
of their friends. They appreciated to
the full the novelty of the feast, and did
not hesitate to dip their fingers into
the poi bowl.
Mr.. and Mrs. Suhr gave party to the
Pail on Sunday, to which were invited
some twenty-four of the officers of the
S. M S. Saida Luncheon was served

goza, and Mr.. H. Focke.
The most successful reception that
has ever been given aboard the U. S. S.
Adams was held Yesterday afternoon,
when the ship was one mass of beauti-
full decorations in flags and bunting
The officers made each and every one
of their guests feel perfectly at home,
and by their actions brought to them
the fact that they were present for the
purpose of having a good time. This
spirit was communicated to every one,
and hence the most successful after
noon spent aboard. The Hawaiian
Club was present and furnished the
music for the dance. Among those pres
ent were Captain Miguel Pozo and Of
f1cers of the Mexican corvette Zaragoza,
officers of the S. NJ. S. Saba, Mr.. and
