TOURISTS To COME.
Outlook is for a Very
Fair Season.
Mr.. c. D. Chase Speaks of the
Volcano Featuring - Several
Excursions.

c. d. Chase, the Kilauea passenger
agent, said yesterday that he antici-
pated very good tourist season as the
indications were at present He is
certain that if the volcano becomes ac-
tive the number Of visitors will be
greater than in any winter for many
years
While on the Coast recently Mr.
Chase induced the Oceanic company to
invest in the 10000 Hawaiian folders
which have caused a good many let
ters of inquiry to be received here. Of
course this advertising was largely for
the Volcano. 1t was upon the sugges-
ton of the Honolulu man that other
features of the Islands were given
some prominence.
Mr. Chase makes the complaint that
tourists have been trained to come to
Hawaii for the especial purpose of see
ing the largest live volcano in the
world belch forth fire and send streams
of lava in every direction. Very few
of the visitors can be convinced that
the trip to the big Island and to the
crater is worth the while unless Pele
is in anger. They are told of the drive
throua- the forest along a road skirted
with coffee plantations and of the
sights near Peter Lees house, but
they saw pictures of fireworks and
were told of the red lake and the foun
tains and will be satisfied with nothing
else.
The more conservative and thinking
who do make the trip are entirely sat
isfied with it. Every one has said that
it was worth the while, greater than
anything they had seen in travelling
elsewhere.
In Boston Mr.. Chase met the Ray
mond & Whitcomb people and was as
sured that they would as usual send
two excursions to Hawaii in the Win
ter of 1878 They expected that there
would be a larger number of passen-
gers for each trip than ever before.
Mr.. DENLY, who was down here for
Cook & Sons, is no longer with the
firm. 1t is known, however that the
famous travel promoters will send at
least one exclusion to Hawaii during
the winter.
Mr.. c. L. Wight, of the Wilder COM
pany and Captain Godfrey and John
Ena of the Inter-Island said they ex-
pected a good tourist season, but ex-
pressed the wish that the volcano
would flare up. Mr.. Wight remarked
that activity in Kilauea would mean
quite a food of visitors. From private
citizens it is learned that many resi-
dents of Honolulu expect visits from
friends in the United States and even
in Europe during the winter.

the Light Guard Armory last Saturday
evening was very largely attended, fully
500 people turning out to hear the carol
singing. The entire program was thor

rendered and the siging by the little chill.

The Day Universally
Observed at Church
and Social Circles.
Ice Kinks Were PatrOnized
Excellent Music at Eaeh-Other
Holiday Notes.

Christmas has come and gone and ID
now a memory. In Calumet its celebra
ton was almost universal and in the
time-honored manner. Nearly every
family where there were little ones had
its Christmas tree.
As far as the weather goes Christmas
day was anything but pleasant, for a
blizzard OF no small proportions ragged a
greater part OF the day and most people
were inclined to spend the day at their
homes.
Christmas night the two Kinks were the
attractions most literally patronized.
1t was the opening night at the Superior
rink at Laurium and there was a very
encouraging attendance. Everything at
the rink gave evidence OF the endeavors
OF the band boys to make things agree
able for the patrons OF the place. They
furnished delightful music for skating
and dancing during the evening. The
band will be in attendance at the rink
every night this week.
Leader Williams, OF the band. has sent
for a lot OF new dance music suitable for
the rink.
At the Skating Pavilion in Red Jacket
there was good attendance on both
Friday and Saturday evenings and all
present had a good time. The music
furnished by the Fifth Infantry band was
as usual OF the highest order. Manager
Schroeder announces an attraction Tor
Wednesday evening which is something
new at this place. 1t is a game OF hockey
between two teams from Dollar Bay.
who will introduce the game here. The
participants in the game Wednesday
evening are said to be unusually good
players and to be able to put ND a speedy
game.
At the churches Christmas services
were held. Friday night the Roman
Catholic aud the Protestant Episcopal
churches had midnight mass and all the
services were well attended. Special
music was the program at these services
and IN every case il was enjoyed.
At the other churches yesterday Christ
mas was the subject OF most OF the sermons
and the choirs rendered special music for
the occasion.

Very slim Attendance.

The William Owen dramatic company
closed It's engagement in this city with
its last performance on Saturday night,
when they played to small audience
The company left here yesterday after
noon for Iron Mountain where they play
a three night stand aud where it is TO be
hoped they will be better appreciated
than they were here. To say the least,
the company was by far the best that
has visited Calumet for many day and
the class OF entertainment they put on
was most excellent and Of kind that
tended TO elevate the stage. They lost
money here and it is not likely that they
will ever return to the copper country.
The manager stated that they recog.
nized that they were here at bad seas
on OF the year, but still the attendance
was so slim that he did not think
they could eyer get a full house in this
city. The kind OF entertainment is ap.
pareutly not what is wanted here, but it
Is to be regretted that they did not have
better houses.
So many people are in the habit OF be-
moaning the fact that it is seldom that
strictly good entertainment comes here,
but the reason ia clearly evident. for ii
they are never better attended than was
the performances OF ths Owen company,
it is no wonder they do not want to come
here.
There was not a single complaint to be
made with the entertainments put up,
for they were acknowledged by all who
attended to be strictly frst-class. At
the matinee Saturday afternoon there
was not enough people present to give a
performance and the tickets were refund.
ed to those who were there.
The music furnished between the acts
at the three entertainments Is very high
~ spoken OF by all.

The mail service from Chicago is get.
ting worse instead OF improving. Last
week the Chicago mail did not come
through on time on four different days
and the service is getting 80 bad that 1t
is about time something were being done
to rectiiy matters. The contract which
the Chicago & Northwestern road has
with the government for the conveyance
OF the mails expires the first OF the year
and it is probable that the mail will then
be carried by the st. Paul road which
brings the express and which rare Y fails
to connect with South Shore on time.
The missing OF the Chicago mails last
week was particularly annoying on ac-
count OF the large amount OF Christmas
mail enroute.
