SHAKESPEARE DINNER.
Novel Progressive Scheme Fol-
lowed by Local Club.

| The Shakespeare Club, not to be ont
done by the Kilohana Art League Lit
erary Circle, INDUCED last evening in
a composite, or, more properly speak
| ing. progressive dinner. 1t was a
novel scheme, hardly in keeping with
strict rules of health, but it was a
grand success nevertheless, and the
students of Shakespeare feel that the
pleasures of the evening fully repaid
the suggestions of dyspepsia expert
enced this morning.
About O'Clock party made up Of
Mr.. and Mrs. B. F. Dillingham;, Judge
and Mrs. Frear, Mr.. and Mrs. II. Laws,
Mr.. and Mrs. ]. A. Kennedy, Mr.. and
Mrs. H. F. Wichman, Mr.. and Mrs.
w. R. Castle, Mr.. and Mrs. E. A. Jones,
and Mr.. and Mrs. o. p. Emerson, met
at the home of j. A. Kennedy, where
they were treated to the first course
of the dinner, oysters on the half-shell
and soup. This completed, the whole
party took bus and rode to H. F.
Wichman's, where the second course
fish-was served. Then w. r. Castles
home was invaded, and the entries
served. Mr.. Castle, being of the opir-
ion that one course taken en- route
would not be out of the way, had
dishes of Roman Punch passed around
as the bus started on its way to Mr..
Lcwrey's where the roast was served.
At Mr.. Dillingham; ice cream and cake
were served Mr.. and Mrs. Frear fur
nished the nuts and raisins at their
home, and the menu was completed
about 10 o'clock with coffee, served in
the lanai Of the Brown residence, Wal
kiki, where Mr.. and Mrs. Laws are
stopping.
AS a scheme for sharpening the ap-
petite and creating fun galore, the
progressive dinner, with bus accom-
paniment, is pronounced a magnificent
success. DR.. and Mrs. F. R. Day are
the only members of the club who
were unable to be present.

has been the great factor in keeping
back the development of the island
or Hawaii. If that is too long ago for
you, think of the experience of Mr..
Dillingham; and his Oahu railroad
scheme. Every time he was on the
point OF securing capital for an extern
sion of his road his plans were upset
by wars or rumorS of them. If we were
part of the United States the Oahu
railway would make circuit of Oahu
inside of II months. l believe this
Will come. Because the Oahu Sugar
Company has been started within The
past month is no evidence that we
have any greater stability than before;
ii is merely the outcome of a prosper
Gus year in sugar and the prospects of
annexation. People had capital, and
they wanted an outlet. Believing that
annexation would come. they have
flocAed to put their names on the
stocR subscription list. / look at il rs
one Sof the many good things to come
when the country is part of the
United States.
Now, let us look at the political side.
Hawaiians, as a rule, have an aloha
for Hawaiian institutions, and they
are 10th to give them up. The fact that
a majority of them have not taken the
oath to support the existing Govern
ment is proof of this. Practically these
men are without a country, for they
have no vote and no voice in the af-
fairs of the country. AS citizens of the
United States they would stand at the
polls on an equal footing with the mil
there is nothing in the Con-
stitution of any of the States which
provides for property qualification
in voting AS | understand it, all men
arc free and equal. and only education
al qualifications are required The in
telligence of the Hawaiians is recog
nized by every foreigner who comes in
contact with them, and this being he
case they would enjoy the same rights
Of franchise as the citizen of New York
