The ladies' OF Hilo have been devoting
their time this week TO the manufacture
OF garments new for the Serrao family,
who would otherwise emerge from their
Cocoanut Island quarantine in the

On Thursday of this week. Mrs. Lii
liam r. Baldins, OF Wainaku. gave a
most delightful afternoon tea in honor
OF Miss Willis. Pink was the color
scheme in the decorations and'was most
daintily and gracefully carried out.

Miss Richardson and Miss Sumner.

considerably removed to Cocoanut ISL

we have no occasion to suspect any
other plague centers.
Sunday evening the fire alarm was
sounded at Just about the time the Hilo
worshipper was sinking into his favor
lite pew for rest and recreation. The
charms OF fire proved more seductive
to some than the beauties of holiness
but when they arrived at the supposed
scene of the fire, Quni's store on Bridge
street, they found II was false alarm
and returned to the house of worship
to find the best boxes taken. In spite
of per cent insurance fire is a
hard thing to start in Hilo.
