Rumor has it that certain young
lady IN society has for some time past
been engaged in writing a Hawaiian
play. or at least a play, the plot of
which is laid in these Islands. Neith-
er the name of the author nor of
the play has been made public as yet,
but friends who know, are willing to
youch for the success of The piece,
should it be Pr oduced. Through mu-
tual friends, an attempt was made to
bring the play to the notice of Mr..
NeiIl, while he was here with his COM
pany, but being here so short time
he was unfortunately not able to give
the matter serious attention.
