Observation-Disclosures
At her pretty home among the trop-
Iical plants on King street, yesterday
afternoon, Mrs. ]. B. Atherton gave a
most attractive reception to meet her
aunt, Mrs Fanny Stockbriage OF Bal
timore Mrs. stockbridge is an enthu-
siast and a connoisseur on all matters
4 pertaining TO art. and it is perhaps on
this account that she has become so
much attached to the Islands and their
natural beauty during her short stay
. here. To show that her opinion is most
valuable the fact of her having been
one Of the judges at the Worlds Fair
might be mentioned.
The afternoon was delightful one
/ for the reception. The house was beau
/ tffully decorated for the occasion.
Leading from the entrance posts to the
door opening into the hallway, and
extending into the hall itself, were
/ long festoons of the bougainviella bios
SONS crossing here and there. Under
the stairway was a bunch of palm
I blossoms set about in the large draw
ing room and out upon the lanai be-
yond were masses of flowers in advan-
! tageous positions. The artistic prevail
\ ed on every side.
