There are some people who cannot be
convinced that white is white and
black is black, because they are deter
mined to have their own wav about IL.
Very good. Such people go through
life missing the great truths and the
greatest happiness as well as comfort.
There are others again who are con-
vinceable. II is to- the men of this class
that we like to talk about the merits
of our clothing.
They are better than nine-tenths of
the made-to-measure clothes turned
out in this city and the equal OF the
other tenth.
Alfred Benjamin & Co.'S clothes cost
about half the price OF made to order
clothes and have every desirable at
tribute of the very best made to- meas
ure garments, besides embodyinG many
unmatchable features strictly their
own. That is why we say investigate
the merits OF the clothes bearing this
label before going TO a tailor. You risk
nothing and stand to win a lot.

Election of Officers Honorary
Members-Music- PIay-So-
ciaI-M!ss Pope Speaks.

The alumni of the Kamehameha
Girls School gave a delightful enter
tainment to friends and students Of the
schools last evening. The assembly
hall had been beautifully decorated
with American and Hawaiian flags,
mingled with banners of crimson and
gold, the alumni colors. This was the
first meeting of the nature yet attempt
ed and the graduates should be well
pleased with their success.
\ business meeting was first held
and the following officers elected:
President, Elizabeth Kahanu; vice
president, Helen Kahaleahu; recording
secretary, Kalei Ewaliko; correspond
ing secretary, Ace Wong Kong; treas
urer, Elizabeth Waiamau.
Reports of the various officers were
read. Miss Pope then spoke few
words in which she commended highly
the precedent which was being estab-
lished. Miss Pope, Miss Anahau and
Capt. r. Bowers were elected honorary
members. The latter enjoys the dis
tinction of being the only male MEM
Der of the Girls Alumni.
After song by the members a
laughable farce entitled Love OF a
Bonnet was given. There were
many amusing situations and all who
took part did well. The characters
were as follows.

left him ignorant OF his country's ntera-
ture and history. When OConnell arose,

versed the process. The tide OF Anglici-

to me as thoroughly honest and sin
cere: not we'll educated. but natural
leader Of men and possessing eonsid-
cradle shrewdness and ability. He
was very popular among the common
people, who had implicit confidence IN
him: but the opinion among the better
classes was that he had not sufficient
education or experience to make
suitable president. He was at one
time governor Of a small town in one
OF the provinces, and it is said that he
was formerly a school teacher. Tue

this time being held open for a promi-

ty. consisting of a mother, father and
three small boys. the youngest of whom
could not have been more than years
old, and who was manifestly wearing
his first pair Of knickerbOckers. says
the New York Tribune. The party be-
came separated. the parents getting on
the rear seat and the small boys on one
four seats ahead. At first the littleSt
one was attracted by the novelty Of his
surroundings, but, this wearing of. he
missed his mother and looked about
for her. When he saw her on the rear
seat a disconsolate yell announced the
discovery. His two brothers tried TO
pacify him, but to his young mind the
four seats that separated them were
an impossible gulf not to be bridged
by human means, and such being the
case he was not to be comforted. The
mother. leaning as far forward as she
could, endeayored TO explain that she
would come to him as soon as the car
stopped. but the child only cried the
more. Every one on the car was by
this time interested and sympathy and
advice were freely offered. An athletic
young man in the seat behind the boy
started to pick him up. with a view ia
passing him over the backs Of the seats
to his mother. The 10y shrank away
from him in deadly fear, sure that he
was the boy-eating ogre OF childish
legend. and his cries raised themselve,
to the pitch Of shrek. The young
man, lobster red. hastily sat down and
pretended preternatural absorption in
an evening paper. Just then the father
and conductor came along the foot
board and between them carried the
child to his mothers arms. Quiet was
restored and the passengers interested
themselves in other things. but the attn
letic young man got OF the car at the
very next corner
