John w. Striker of 1901 Louise street,
and William c. Lyon, son of A. C

tion held at the Striker home last eve
ming and was a complete surprise to
the friends of both parties. The wed.
ding will take place next month, as the
young people expect to be in Honolulu
by the 1st of October.
Miss Striker is known among a host
of friends as Bonnie" pet name
which has almost usurped her own
name. She is graduate of the Be1ke-
ley High school, where she met her
prospective husband when the two
were classmates. Her father has been
for sixteen years a prominent figure in
serving in the party organization as
well as in public offices, including that
of Town Marshal and Deputy Sheriff,
and in the Street Department.
William Lyon is a rising young bust
ness man in the Hawaiian islands. The
Lyon family have recently moved to
the islands and they, with the young
people soon to be married, will make
Honolulu their home.
Mrs E. J. Foster was hostess at a
pretty luncheon given on Thursday at
her residence on Jackson street, when
the engagement was announced of
Miss Edna Foster Allen to Mr.. Arthur
Roy Lyon of Honolulu, formerly of the
United Staes navy. Covers were laid
for eighteen, and the table decorations
were of deep red roses. which were also
placed in bowls about the dining-room.
The other rooms were decorated with
green's and yellow jonquils. When the
pleasant announcement was made
three tiny love birds flew from a large
rose in the center of the table with
very charming effect. The place cards
and favors were hearts and Cupids and
the idea of an engagement luncheon
was prettily carried out in every detail.

THIRD JUDGE
HOME AGAIN
Vacation in California
Makes Him Love
Hawaii More.

Judge w. ]. Robinson returned from
his vacation in California by the Ala
media He tells of a lady belonging to
the islands returning home in
the same steamer, who danced
roundelay on deck when Diamond
Head came into view, and comments:
Il would have danced for joy my
self, only that some people might think
it made me ridiculous. Even the sight
of the Molokai headlands made me feel
glad.
After all is said, California is no
place for one who has experienced the
climate of Hawaii. Why. in San Fran
cisco the fog did not lift until IL o'clock
and it came back at $3.50. We had fog
with us on board the Alameda from
the time we left, IL o'clock Saturday
until 4:20 the next day."
Judge Robinson was oppressed by a
severe cold nearly all the time he was
away and comes home with a frog in
the throat Still he looks well and fit
for the arduous work of clearing no
the long-congested calendar of the
First Circuit Court, with which his
two colleagues and himself are cor
fronted but under the favorable con-
ditions made by the amended Judiciary
Act

night announced that he is candidate for
the Democratic nomination for mayor. He
made public a statement i'm which he said:
81 am a candidate for the Democratic NOM

This statement is made with full knowl-

L am willing to stand with those Demo-
Gratis, however small their number, who be-
lieye that the Democratic party of this
city should lead and not follow I'm the for

Speaking OF the municipal campaign Mr..
Nixon says: 1.-The battle will be won or
lost on local issues that are old enough to
have gained permanent hold upon the
public mind. These issues are police black
mail and that mercenary spirit which
breeds dishonesty in the public service. To
them may be charged all the party's re-
cent loss of local prestige. The Democ-
racy has not been beaten on these issues
by Republican votes alone by any means.
1t has been beaten chiefly by Democratic
votes. The Democratic party of the city
has all the issues in its favor except two.
1t is easily within its power to throw of
their dead weight when il makes up its

be no doubt of the result of any campaign
i'm which the party explicitly and without
equivocation commits itself TO the reforms
for which the city has four times voted
in ten years"

his candidacy.
