Honolulu Mortality.

There were 112 deaths in March,
which is perhaps not larger percent
age than usual, equal to per cent a
year of the population of the city. or
the deaths AZ per cent were Hawaiians,
81 per cent Asiatics. Five per cent
we're by plague, 10 per cent by con-
sumption, and IL per cent by typhoid
fever. without the strenuous war
against the plague, that pestilence
would have become epidemic, and
doubtless have murdered scores daily.

MEN AND WOMEN
ALL IN TROUBLE
CORNER Had to Sew or Buttons and
Latter Were Forced to
Drive Nails.

The social of the Methodist Episco-
pal church given last evening at the
parsonage of Rev. G.. L. Pearson. was
largely attended by members of the
church and their friends. An excellent
recitative and musical program was
rendered. followed by the serving of
dainty refreshments. A large party of
ladies' and gentlemen from Australia
Just arrived on sailing vessel. were
present.
The entertainment was styled a
Nail and Button Social" All the gen.
tlemen present, young and old, were re-
quired to sew six very small buttons
on very small piece of cloth, the time
for the operation being limited to six
minutes, while the ladies were given
six nails and hammer each, the ~
quirement being to drive the nails into
thick board in the same length OF
time.
The sewing part of the social was at
tanned by the most ludicrous and pain
fully slow attempts of the stronger sex
to sew their buttons on straight. The
chief difficulty at the outset. however,
was In the threading of the needles.
which were not OF the largest kind
generally used by bachelors. but were
small sized and the eyes OF the needles
were found only by the aid of lighted
lamps held close by. Few knew how to
tie the ends OF the thread. and some
forgot to place knot in the thread at
all. Few of the gentlemen finished in
the time specified with the required
number OF buttons set firmly upon the
cloth, and there was naturally a spirit
cd contest for the BOBBY prize. A hand
some cane was presented to the winner.
For driving nails the ladies were
clearly not experts and they managed
to strike their fingers almost as often
as the head of the nail. A pretty bronze
hammer was given the winner of the
nall driving contest and BOBBY prize
was accorded the poorest amateur.
The program was as follows:
