KINDERGARTENs.



of Association in Monthly Meeting.
The directors of the Free Kind
ergarteu Association held a very
spirited meeting this morning,
which withal dispatched business
promptly. Each school was pleas.
antly reported and every one had
the same report of smaller attend
ance than usual on account of
measles or whooping cough. All
the schools had little Thanks
giving treat among themselves to
which some of the mothers were
invited. The food was supplied
by the parents or occasionally by
other schools. Mrs. Dodge's pri-
vate school came in a body with
flowers and goodies to the Japan
ese school, who shared their festi-
val with the Hawaiian school.
The Hawaiian children have
been greatly helped to regular
attendance by a light lunch given
them daily at IL o'clock, supplied
by the contributions of two or
three public spirited ladies. This
seemed necessary because the Ha.
weiians are so very irregular in
their meals and many of the chill
dren came without breakfast.
The sanitary work in these
schools is now under supervision
of Miss Rice, one Of the nurses
from the Sanitarium on King
street, aided by DR.. Garvin.
The principal item Of business
was the psss;n! a vote to memo
rialize the Minister of Interior
that work may soon begin on Riv-
erside Park.

KAMEHAMEHA ALUMNI.
Choice OF Officers for the Following
Year.

Year.
The regular annual meeting of
the Kamehameha Alumni Asso
citation was held in the hall of
that organization last evening.
Owing to a misunderstanding on
the part of some of the members,
there was not a very large atten-
dance. The boys were disap,
pointed at not having Attorney
General Smith with them.
The first business of the even
ing was the election of officers to
serve during the ensuing year.
The suit was as follows:
Pr, sident-David Kanewanui.
Wee president-Oscar Cox.
Recording Secretary j. H..
Wise.
Corresponding Secretary-Solo-
mon Koki.
Treasurer-W. o. Crowell.
Another important matter Of
business was the lease of the pre-
misses on Fort street from the Ks-
mehameha trustees for club
house site. A committee consist
ing of S. w. Spencer, j. H. Wise
and James Harbottle was ap-
pointed to confer with the trustees
and toreport at an early date.
Theo Richards, formerly prin-
cipal at Kamehameha, told the
boys he thought the trustees
would give them the land at a
very reasonable figure and advis.
ed them to push ahead their
plans.
The plan for a club house was
there for the boys to consider but
action was deferred until the re-
ceipt of the report of the commit
tee referred to above.
Sam Mahuka was appointed
auditor to 60 over the books oil

dies for saturday Afternoon.

"hes
The Bishop Home piano fund
concert had 80 many people en-
gagged for days in advance, and
there being several other import
ant events last night, it is no
wonder there was but small
house for the opening of the ex-
ira season of Nance O'Neil and
the Mckee Rankin Co. All the
same, a fine performance was
given. Applause was hearty at
the strong situations. The notice
given by this paper to the first
presentation of this drama by the
same players applies to the repe-
tition.
What Honolulu has showed il
wanted will be given on Saturday
afternoon and evening-that is, a
splendid line of comedy. At the
matinee will be presented, "Coun-
sci for the Defense" and "The
Private Secretary" In the even
ing "The Magistrate" in which
Mr.. Stockwell finds a great spe.
cialty. The matinee will give the
children chance, that they have
not had in the regular season, t.
have laugh at the funny folks

Nan, gazing reilectively after the organ
list of St. GATHERINGS and Dodo as they
walked away from her under the trees in
Central park one blessed June Sunday,
said mournfully to herself:
II might have known it. Both young,
both 80 beautiful, both as loving hearted

music welded them together-I guess
Dodo will have something to tell me TO-
night"
Which Dodo did.
"He belongs to rs good a family as
mine, Nan, dear, but his father married
again, and things weren't pleasant for him
at home He has been on trial with the
ST. Catherine people, but now they are
going to pay him lovely salary, and he
won't have to wear such deceiving shoes
We have concluded that we would like to
get married just one year to day from
that lovely little dinner to which you in
vited him. I never could have had the
face to do It,.
"Dodo," said Nan reproaohfully; then,
after solemn pause: II will never trust
man in creaking shoes again. He just
creaked himself into your sympathies.
"I've already asked Charley what made
him walk 80 like sorrowful old man over
our heads, and he says he supposes 1t was
because he felt Thousand years old and
as frichdless az tho Wandering low before
you invited him to that dinner on Christ.
