The grounds at the residence of Mr..
Tom May Lunalilo and Kinau streets,
were brilliant yesterday afternoon
with gaily decorated booths wherein
Christmas goods We're displayed and
sold by a number of ladies connected
with St. Clements church for whose
benefit a fair was given. The beauti-
full grounds, teeming with tropical
plants and foliage, were made even
more picturesque with tents and ladies
in bright costumes. The flower tent,
with its array of bloom was center
of interest. The candy, lemonade,
fancy work, doll and other
booths were equally attractive and
dollars flowed into the general Golfer
through these mediums.
Owing to the downpour of rain the
night before and yesterday morning
almost the entire plan of the fair was
smiling again and all but a few of the
tents appeared on the lawn as pre-
arranged The fancywork and candy
booths were arranged on the large
dancing lanai connected with the
handsome residence, and there also
many dainty refreshments were sold
and served by bevy of pretty young
ladies.
In one corner was the fishing pond,
a place infested the afternoon long by
the wee folks, who found ample fun
in fishing for toys and other children's
trophies. A gypsy camp, where for
tunes were told by ladies in gypsy at
tire. assisted by number of young
ladies similarly CARRIED, formed an
other attractive corner.
The Hawaiian Government band IN
der Captain Berger played on the lawn
In the center of a circle of
booths and aided much in making the
fair go.
The evening was devoted largely to
the living pictures given in the small
theatorium on the veranda, in which
number of society ladies participant
ed The tabIeaus We're meritorious
and reflected credit upon the origina-
tors Dancing was INDUCED in until a
late hour, the Ellis Quintette Club fur
nishing excellent music. The fair took
in about thousand dollars.
