lulu with q liberal smattering OF visit
, ing brethren. sat down to a joint in.
stallation banquet at the Hawaiian
Hotel last evening. 1t was the first
time in the history of Masonry in Ha.
wall that such a function had been
held though Joint banquet was held
In the temple last year in celebration
OF the midsummer st. Johns day.
Hawaii holds a unique position in
Masonry in consequence of the three
Jurisdictions represented by the three
lodges: le Progress OF the French, Ha.
waiian of the California and Pacific
holding its charter from the Grand
Lodge of Scotland. Though they have
held their meetings in the same tenn.
pie for many years their celebrations
have usually been distinct.
Last nights session was presided
over by Dr. G. b. Wood as postmaster.
The attendance filled three long tables
running the whole length of the hotel
dining room and an overflow table was
space In the main building. An in.
cident that gave spice to the introduc.
ton OF the speakers representing the
three jurisdictions was the display of
CariCatures of Towse, Tucker and
Cooper appropriately done by DR.. +. r.
Day. Towse was shown in the garh
of the Frenchman, Tucker as a miner
of 80 and Cooper as Scotchman in
kits. Owing to the absence OF II. h.
Cooper the response to the Grand
Lodge of Scotland was made by Past
Master c. J. Hutchins.
The toasts were all of the strictly
masonic nature and the responses com.
bined to give u review of the estab-
lishment of Masonry In the islands, its
steady growth and harmonious de.
velopment. During the banquet the
Hotel quintet club furnished music.
The service was excellent showing
careful attention of Manager Church
and his assistants for the comfort Of
his guests. The program in detail fol.
