We have been sitting on the
ragged edge of damp cloud for
the past two weeks, contemplating
the result in the event of the
non-arrival of the S. G. Wilder,
with our cut glass ware and
other articles which we had
selected for the holiday trade.
Yesterday the tension on our
nervous system relaxed ). the Will
der arrived and twenty-four
hours after this goes into print,
we will have a display of fine
goods on our counters, such as
never was seen here before.
The additional space required
has been obtained by doubling
up on our show counters, making
new ones and changing around
some of the old ones on the
second floor. We're ready for
business and the number of
sales of holiday goods we have
made during the past three
weeks constrains us to believe
that the business is ready for us.
BY the Wilder we have all
kinds of things suitable for
Christmas gifts. Many of them
are in cut glass, and they COM
prise: Saucers, Salad Dishes,
Rose Bowls, Pickle Jars, Butter
Tubs and Plates, Ice Cream
Trays, Decanters, Lemonade
Sets, Individual Oils, Tumblers,
Individual Buffers, Creamers,
Smelling Salts and half a hum
dred other things.
Then there are Chatting Dishes
in more than a dozen styles.
Literary, Hall and Piano Lamps,
Crepe Paper Shades and Silk
Shades and Onyx Tables.

A Challenge for a Race.

1t can now be said, without fear
of contradiction that the Government
has boat and crew that would be
creditable to any country, and are
an honor to boat loving Hawaii.
When Capt, Schaefer took the bar
racks boys out for spin this morn
ing up the Channel while awaiting
the Alert, all admitted that it was
jolly good boat and a jolly good
crew, and one that could hold its
own against any crew in the harbor.
Commodore Dow, it is understood,
is willing to accept challenge from
the Government crew and will en-
deavor to give them a good race,

ALOHA NUI.
The Flush of the Successful Fraw-
lev season.


ley season.
A large audience witnessed the
last appearance OF the Frawley Com.
pany during this season last evening
at the Opera House.
"The Jilt," famous play OF Dion
Boucioault had been selected as the
farewell performance Of the popu
lar company. The characters we're
presented in the usual artistic style,
and the hearty applause Of the audi
enee during the evening was we'll
deserved and rendered homage to
the actors aud actresses who, dur
ing the past weeks, have been the
delight OF large portion of the
community.
Mr.. Frawley has promised to re-
turn next year, and he will find
hearty welcome awaiting him and
his colleagues. AS Myles O'Hara the
genial actor was grand. His slight
Irish brogue showed his careful
study OF the educated Irishman, who
remains in his country as true
Irish gentleman.
The play is too we'll known to
call for comments 1t is lively
comedy aud will always be received
with Intense pleasure by any audi
ence.
Miss Bates sustained her part in
her usual clever manner, and leaves
here with very hattering compli-
ments from Honolulu's theatre
goers.
Space forbids US to eulogize the
individuals of the Frawley Com
pany. We cannot allow the oppor-
tunity 10 pass without giving spe-
cial homage to Miss Hope Ross,
who from the first day became the
favorite OF Honolulu. Miss Ross is
a highly educated young lady, and
as the ingenue she ranks with the
best actresses of Europe and Am
erica. 1t is safe to predict a great
future for this beautiful young ac-
tress outside the parts at present
consigned to her. Miss Ross is not
alone an actress to the manner born;
she is a musician OF great merit, and
the violin, solo played by her last
night created tumultuous APP
planse, necessitating the curtain be-
ing raised five times. We hope that
Hope Ross will not forget Honolulu.
When she returns, and may the day
be near, she will find herself the
darling" of the public, and be re-
ceived will enthusiasm.
The Frawleys leave tomorrow.
Their season has been grand sue
cess, and The management OF the
Opera House and the company de-
serve great credit May the good
work go on and let us all join in
saying Aloha Nui to our departing
friends.
