The wheel is just now the principal
object OF interest among the society
people Of Honolulu. Il is nothing but
bicycle talk from morning until night.
This OF course is in reference to the
ladies' The men say nothing because
they don't feel that way after the
bills are paid. If any lady desires q
little unpleasantness all she has 10 do
is TO say that her wheel is better than
OF her aeighbor. There is pitched
battle AZ once. OF course it is reeog-
nizsd as being a fad, this hankering
after the dusty roads on a swift run
ming bicycle. but even if it is. NJ
amount OF persuasion can bring the
conviction that bicycling is anything
but the most pleasant OF occupations.
So il goes from day to day until now
the number of people in Honolulu wh5
ride bicycles is becoming so large that
well, it has the effect of putting the
various agents in a good humor.
The following party met at the P.
T. c. courts, Union Square and started
out on a ride to Waikiki shortly after
s o'clock: Mrs. d. Tenney, Miss Law
renee, Miss Pauahi Judd, Miss Ethel
Smith, Miss Juliette King, Messrs.
Samuel q. Wilder, Armstrong Smith,
Harry Waterhouse, Walter Dilling-
ham. Charles Hyde and C. H. w. Nor
ton. AT the Irwin home the party were
met by Mrs. Irwin and Miss Spalding.
After a short time spent in pleasant
converse, the bicyclists were invited
10 the dining room where supper was
served.
The table was decorated in true p.
T. c. style. In the center stood large
bunch of red carnations while at either
end were smaller punches of the same
flower. Running across tie table IN
either side were broad ribbons of scar
let and navy blue, and the shade for
the light above the table was made OF
paper to match. At each plate were
bouquets of red carnations for the
ladies and boutonniers of the same
flowers for the men. They were tied
with ribbons in the P T. c. colors.
Shortly after supper the party re-
turned TO the city, feeling much in
debted to Mrs. Irwin for most de
lightful evening.
