Organizing OF Evening Classes to
Begin on Monday Next.

Begin on Monday Next.
The evening classes of the Y. NJ. c.
A which open next Monday are no
new feature of the works of the Y. NJ
c. A. here. Their past record has
been one of great helpfulness to
during the school year soon to open,
it is hoped to so enlarge the work as
to hold the interest of all classes.
The entrance fee of 81 is ridiculously
low for the feast of good things to be
spread before the young people of
Honolulu 1t will not only pay for
195 hours of instruction, but makes

mittee feel that they have secured not
only a practical book-keeper, but one
who will be an enthusiast in impart-
ing to others the knowledge of bust
ness that he himself has acquired
| This class has always been a popular
one, and justly so; for by few weeks
of hard application, one may fit him
self for a good position.
The Shorthand and Typewriting
classes are as worthy of notice as the
Bookkeeping Skill in Photography

ply a matter of well-directed energy
and persistence. Messrs. Petrie anC
Bluxom who have charge of this worl

end
The three classes just mentionet
comprise the Business Department o
the school, and only those who NEAR

Prof Cooks name is a guarante,
that the work in Vocal Music will b

world can you get twenty-six must

both ladies and gentlemen, and viii
be one of the most popular.
The Elementary class is a boon t
those boys and young men who worl
in stores and offices during the day
The class meets three evenings in tn
week, and will teach you almost any
LnlnS from cat TO Calculus.
A new feature of the school is tn
class in Hawaiian Language Their
have been inquiries regarding thi
class, and it bids fair to be a 1arg
one. If you want to learn to reaC
write or speak Hawaiian, Mr.. Poepo
} will teach you.
The Orchestra needs no introductio
as it is already fixture, and we ma
say necessity in Honolulu. All car
didates should apply to Mr.. Heitmal
the director.
Other new features are the Pre-
posed Historical talks and "The Ser

are more appeals to the eye and ca
than to the reason, and anything thu

GEORGIA MINSTRELS
To be at the Grand Opera House Fri
day Evening.

The Georgia minstrels will appear at
the Grand Opera House in this city
Friday evening, the 21st. The Indian
apolis Journal is quoted as saying
about it:
There was a good sized audience at
English's last night, and fun reigned
fast and furious for well on to three
hours. The attraction was the Georgia
MINISTRIES, and these cOlOred performers
certainly furnished sweet music and en-
tertainment in plenty. Their singing,
dancing and comic features are excep-
tionally clever, and they give a bright
performance all through.
BILLY Kersands and James White
furnish much of the fun in the first
part. They are aided by James Moore
and Billy Reynolds. Kersands, of
course, is well known to eVerybOdy as
the most famous of all cOlOred min
strels. He is inimitable. There are
which more pretentiOus minstrel or
CARNATIONS would do well to copy,
though it would be hard to get as much
out Of them as these Georgias do.
In the oliO is JaVlan, the juggler,
who introduces several entirely new
feats in that line, and who is much bet
ter than the usual run of jugglers. The
female representations of Gauze are
among the best ever seen here. The
four old spOrts-MOore, Hillman, Yer
non and White-dO a clever act and the
Crescent City quartette is an excellent
one Billy Kersands is, of course, en-
PERTAINING in his speciality. The entire
show is good. The aim of the GeOrgias
is to give an old time minstrel perform
ance, and they give it WE'LL
