The following notes Of the Garden
Isle came in a letter on the Mikanala
Saturday:
Lihue has an EGGPLANT. On Saturday
last, the first installment of ice ever
made in Lihue, was distributed among
the prospective buyers, free of charge
The capacity of the machine is 1900
pounds every twenty-four hours. This
is calculated to be more than Lihue
Will consume for many moons to come,
SO, II proper arrangements for trans
portatiOn can be made, Kappa may be
supplied twice a week.
Not to be outdone Waimea has de-
cided to have ice and soda With this
In view, one of the prominent mer-
chants of that place is now in Homo
lulu negotiating for the erection of the
necessary machinery.
The dream of Waimea's Citizens
Guard is about to be realized by the
erection of butts. A very good rife
range has been secured.
The boat clubs of Honolulu would
do we'll to keep their eyes on the Kauai
oarsmen, for they mean business. They
expect to send down to the next re-
gatta, a four-oared shell crew that will
wipe up the water with the people
here.
Two white men have been making
themselves very unpopular of late by
resorting to the Old-time trick of trap
ping the store-keepers who keep liquor.
Thirsty travellers, marked coins, search
warrants and few other things, were
among the objects that went to make
up the unpopularity. A couple Of store
keepers from Eleele were summoned
to appear at Koloa last Wednesday
morning. After hanging around for
several hours, an officer arrived with
been postponed This was sorry con-
ISOLATION for the store-keepers.
True to her old time traditions, XII
lauea "made the welkin ring" on Hal
lowe'en. On the Saturday preceding,
the boys sent out invitations and none
were refused The result was a rare
good time. The floor of the hall was
all that could be desired as dancing
place. It is said that some of the young
ladies INDUCED their superstitious
fancies a bit but it has not yet been
learned how many saw in their dreams,
their future happiness or unhappiness
On Saturday evening last, the ladies
and gentlemen of Makaweli Planta-
ton, as a welcome home to Mr.. and
| Mrs Morrison, who have just returned
from the European trip, entertained
them at dance in the plantation hall
There was even a larger turnout
than usual of the employees, with all
the ladies of the plantation and few
of their lady friends, all anxious to
bid the manager and his good lady
welcome back amongst them. Mrs
Morrison is accompanied by her moth
er, Mrs. Murer of San Francisco who
| was also present.
A prettily decorated hall, a good
floor, lively music and desire on the
part of everybody present to have a
good time all made up most enjoyable
evening, and dancing was kept up until
midnight with only a short interval
| for refreshments.
Mr.. Morrison very thoughtfully
| brought back with him from the land
of the heather fresh supply of real
Highland music which greatly delight
ed the hearts of all the Scotchmen
present and made their own national
dances by no means the least enjoyable
of the evening.
