Wedding Bells,

The marriage of n. K Smythe and
Miss Sarah Kaoo, was celebrated at the
residence of the bridegroom at Kappa
lama on Saturday night last by the
Rev. Waiamau. The bride was beau
tifully dressed in pure white with the
usual veil and orange blossoms, and
looked charming. After the ceremony
the happy couple received the congra-
tulations of their numerous friends
and then all sat down to bountiful
repast. The remainder of the evening
was spent in music and dancing till a
late hour.

clubs now exist where clubs would be
of great value. A new organization is
at the present time in process of for
nation.
Another interest which has taken
the time of your secretary to a small
extent, is that of country libraries and
reading rooms. A movement in this
direction had been started long since,
and some rooms were already occupied
for this purpose. 1t was found, after
considerable correspondence, that what
was most needed besides periodicals
and general reading matter, was hints
as to the running of the proposed
rooms. After a presentation of this
subject at the Hawaiian Mission Chill
dren'S Society several books and $25
in money was contributed. Nearly all
this money has been spent in supply
ing periodicals (annual subscriptions
to the four rooms now in successful OPP
eration-Wailuku, Waikane, Hookena,
Kaumakapili. There is little doubt
money, for in many country places
there is absolutely no place for the
young to spend their evenings or I'M
occupied time, which otherwise would
be likely to be passed in vicious
amusement
1T has been the wish of your secre-
tary to undertake some such work on
Oahu as is successfully carried on at
Kauai under the efficient management
of Rev. John Lydgate, in the way of
a pastors aid and church repair socie-
ty. On Oahu the conditions might
warrant the combining of the two
Iideas-withOut the REIMBURSEMENT of
the idea of self-support. Hon. w. o.
Smith and Hon. II. Waterhouse have
been for long time carrying this work
on their shoulders and would be glad
to relinquish it in view of their pres
ent heavy responsibilities.
Your secretary anticipates consid-
cradle work in connection with the
Craftsmanship of the committee on the
Palama Mission in behalf of the Cen
trail Union Church-to the addition of
which work sanction was given by the
Hawaiian BOard-he feels, however,
that whether or not the name field sec
rotary is continued, a greater amount
of his time in the future should be ded-
icated to the distinctively Hawaiian
work. To this end the work of the
Sunday schools offers an inviting

bones were broken, and death was prob
ably instantaneous.
Col Simonds was one of the most widely
known hotel men in the country. He was
