The crack italian cruiser Liguria. Iy-
ing in Naval Row with warships of
the American fleet, was the scene yes
terday afternoon of as pretty naval
reception as Honolulu society folk have
been hidden to in many seasons. The
perfect weather added not a little to
the enjoyment of the occasion. The
attractive cruiser in her dull gray paint
was clothed with innumerable flags and
! interminable lengths of bunting, while
every nook and Conversations corner
was garnished with flowers, ribbons
/ and greens The picture of the pref
tiiy decorated decks with its throng of
beautifully gowned society devotees and
naval and army officers in their spick
and span uniforms was one which will
long be remembered by those fortunate
enough to be numbered among the
guests of the royal scion of ItaIy's
reigning house.
The canopy over the deck was mass
of handsome flags of nations. The up
rights and cords were twined with ma
lie, the gun shields and the heavy guns
themselves being peacefully festooned
with MALE and garnished with carna-
tons, roses and ferns The skylights
and matches We're covered with flags
and upon these rested vases and bas-
kets of roses and carnations, the bas-
kets having bows of tule. The fine
band of the cruiser was stationed above
the deck in a fag-enclosed space
Amidships and at either rail We're ta-
bles devoted to delicious array of re-
freshments, including champagne
punch The tables We're prettiIy dec
grated with flowers and the whitest of
napery cleaned beneath the silver

The bulwarks were also prettily dec

music of the band was a pleasurable
invitation to the guests who danced
and danced until the reception came
to a close, almost too soon for ALL The
guests were conveyed from the boat
landing to the warship in the steam
launches of the Liguria and the Amer
lean warships Buffalo, Marblehead and
