We are not sufficiently Irish, but
nevertheless we are glad to note
that in these fair Islands, the feast
OF st. Patrick is being observed by
Irishmen temperately with q view to
its religious and patriotic sizni-
ficance, rather than as an occasion
for mere merry. making, carnival
of sport and holiday. The custom
ary parade OF the mainland has,
happily, we think, been eliminated
with its attendant features none too
creditable to IEishmen. The bur.
lesque entertainment, a disgust
ing travesty upon Irish manners
and Celtic characteristics, has been
ob,iterated in Honolulu, and will
remain sunk into oblivion.
The celebration began this morn.
ing when special religious ssrvice'
was celebrated at the Roman Catho.
lie Cathedral by the Rev. Father j.
j. Henley, OF Dubuque, Iowa. A
number of Irshmen were present.
This evening cur Irish citizens
will commemorate the day by
banquet at the Moana Hotel, which,
il 1t lacks the pageantry and deliri

The Lady of the Twilight

The Hawaii Ponoi Dramatic Club
presented a melodrama on Hawaii
an history, at the Opera House
Saturday night to large audience,
Hawaians responded patriotically.
The acting of the Hawaians was
perfect aud their pronounciation OF
the English version very good.
The Lady of the Twilight" is re-
miniscence Of ancient Hawaii, with
its odd costumes, rites and super
stitions, full of pathos, bordering on
tragedy.
"The Landing and Death OF Cap
tain Cook" followed and was very
reslistic. Wm. II, Keawe as ships
quar.ermaster, gained the favor OF
the audience and won several rounds
OF applause. The same plays will

TRIBUTE To OUR LATE FRIEND.

All that was once mortal OF our

solemn music aud the fragrance OF
flowers immersed in green foliage
aud evergreens, and with him went
forth the aloha lGuluu a pauneako
(heavy and sorrowful grie) OF the
Hawaiian people, although they
were not numerously represented,
those there present fully represent
ing them and that their aloha went
out to the sorrowing widow aud re-
latives az evidenced by the numer-
Gus condoleces received, their Queen
being am ongst the many and who in
truth represented them. The INDE
PENDENT is fully aware that he had
an unselfsh and unwavaring tenn
permanent whenever and wherever
Hawaii and her people were con-

whether in political life or other
wise. Hs was always found ever
ready with voice and purse to give
his quota and his advice when
sought for, which was always sound
aud safe and highly appreciated. If
the truth was sufficiently known, let
us make it known that on his last
bridal trip, he had his heart full OF
home, and had his life bsen spared
to us longer, we would have known
what was uppsrmost in his mind.
In him was personified the tongue
OF bold and fearless speaker, very
cautious aud scathing, who was ever
ready to weld the pen OF a ready
writer manfully and caustically
against the despoilers and traducsrs
of the little country he only knew
as his home, whose people we're to
him as if they we're OF his own kith
and kim He was ever on the alert
on the political issues of interest or
otherwise az we'll as in The CONNER

the country and its people. This
country aud its people have really
lost a true and tried friend in him,
whose place in its annals would be q
