Apropos of the Walking Delegate who
sailed for Hawaii nei with hope rising
high in his breast as to what ne could
do in the Islands, the wish has been
expressed that he won't get Honolulu
to the stage of kick" that has been
reached in Chicago where the BARRIERS
insist as their right 1.-The last shave"
that has hitherto been undisputed!y
the undertaker's.
IF we can shave in life we will
shave in DEATH" they cry, "And we
belong to the union!'' No doubt the
weeping relatives are expected to pay
for the last shave and the Chi ago
barber isn't all sentimental

A rather curious little coincidence is
the renting of the residence, in San
Francisco, of Mr.. and Mrs. Willard
Drown by Mr.. and Mrs. Willard Brown,
nee Miss Hopper. The complications
that could arise might easily fill book

Miss Jessie Kaufman left a party of
friends waving good bye to her
from the dock when she sailed on the
Sierra to visit Mrs. datch of Honolulu,
and they did not hesitate to declare
that each and every one of them was
envious of her trip to the Paradise.

Mr.. and Mrs. Joe Cooke have been
enjoying their visit thoroughly and Mr..
Cooke is in very much better health
than when he left the Islands. His
mother, Mrs. H. E. Cooke, gave very
charming luncheon in August at her
pretty home in Oakland complimentary
to her daughter-in-law. Mrs. Laura
Wight was among the guests present
and looked particularly well in be-
coming light tinted gown.

Miss Lily Lawlor is on the verge of a
career" with a voice "as it," and a
stage presence besides, has decided to
forsake tickle fame for still more tickle
society. Miss Lawlor has secured
apartments in New York for the win
ter, leaving Paris early in the season.
A society life always had a strong at
traction for the fair Lily and she has
many rich and influential friends to
see that she doesn't waste her time
climbing" while in a professional ca
reer she would of course have to work
hard and perhaps not reach the top
of the ladder for many weary years, if
ever. 1t was alluring to think of her
self as an operate star and to picture
the Hawaiian Islands and California
lighting to claim her as a daughter,
but the fight seemed too far in the fu-
ture. Miss Lawlor does love to tell
people that her golden voice came
from the balmy, tropical air of the
Islands that she breathed through her
childhood, so she too has the aloha
for Hawaii nei that once felt is always
the same.
Norris Davis is to be married to
Therese Morgan early in October and
his mother, Mrs. Horace Davis, is GO
ing to give couple of large receptions
for the young couple shortly after.
Norris is known to many Honolulu peo-
pie and Theodore Wores has made his
fiancee also known by exhibiting her
portrait in his studio on Fort street.

Mrs. Robert Louis Stevenson is pre-
pairing to go East and evidently she in
tends to convince the public that her
royalties from her husbands books are
in proportion to his genius for the ex-
qusfte gowns and wraps she has coll
lected could not fail to attract admir-
alone Mrs. Stevenson has bought a
four hundred and fifty dollar fur lined
cape and a white silk opera coat to her
feet with gorgeous, heavy. broad lace
let in everywhere. Something of a con-
trast to the days when Mrs. Robert
Louis Stevenson astonished the natives
both in Samoa and Hawaii by appear
ing in holoku with her feet bare and
her golden hair a-hanging down her
back"
Mrs. Sidney Smith and her daughters
are at Carlsbad where Mrs. Smith is
taking the cure. Helen Smith writes
that Europe is not to be disputed, but
neither is Honolulu.

Henry Miller and Margaret Anglin
are enjoying their usual San Francis
co success and the public at large is
INDUCING in the usual speculation as
TO whether the stage lovers are not
likely to carry their simulated loves
into private life and reality.
