The Washington Times of May 80
gives the following account of a recep.
ton given by the former Queen of Ha.
wall:
EX.Qupen Liliuokalani of Hawaii
gave musicale and reception in the
parlor at the Ebbitt House last night.
when her guests numbered many PEG.
pie prominent in official and resident
society. The rooms were attractively
decorated with large palms and cut
flowers and bevy of assistants were
in attendance upon the hostess.
Queen Liliuokalani received her
guests in striking gown of black jet.
ted net over black satin. She greetel |
each guest with a cordial smile AMI
the charming manner which has made
her so popular here. and evidenced n
wonderful memory of everybody pre-.
scented to her. The presentations were
made by MIR. David Kalauokalanl Jr.
The musical portion of the enter
tainment was furnished principally by
band of Hawaiian musicians who are
on a tour Of this country. The must.
clans formed quite a picturesque group
in their white suits, red sashes, and
wreathes. or leis. as they are called in
laval. The leis worn last night were
only limitations OF those worn in Ha.
wall. being made of yellow paper, thus
carrying out the national color
scheme. In their own country the
leis are woven out of the royal flower,
delicate little blossom which blooms
only from sunrise until noon.
All the native Hawaiians present
last night wore leis. and Queen Liliu0.
kalani wore two, brought together at
the back with a clasp.
The selections offered by the orChes.
ira were for the most part native com.
positions, but were characterized with
a dash and rhythm that made them
seem quite American-like. They intro.
duced several glee numbers, which
proved so popular that they had to b.
repeated. The orchestra was one OF
the attractions at the Buffalo Exposi
uon. and has just returned from
Charleston and a trip to Palm Beach
. Their numbers last night were de
lightfully interpreted and one OF thu
most appreciative listeners was tbs
distinguished hostess.
