the SWEETEST that Maui County can
bring forth on such an august occa-
sion.
There were free trains from Paia, Ki.
mel, and Waikiki carrying guests 10
the Masonic hall. A grand reception
to the Master and Wardens was given
In the lodge rooms soon after 8 o'clock
and lasted until . p. m, when the
guests repaired to the new KahuluI
Railroad Co.'S warehouse on the op.
posite side Of the street. This Is
beautiful building l5Ox43 feet and the
guests were most comfortably seated
within its stately walls.
Music for the dance was furnished by
the Puunene orchestra. composed OF
six stringed instruments, and the play.
Ing was Of such quality that 1t is now
conceded to be not necessary to import
talent from Honolulu. While there may
be better musicians on Maui for dances
the Puunene boys can take the palm
for their gentlemanly behavior and
kindly demeanOr, that will make their
services In great demand. The dance
commenced shortly after y o'clock with
the grand march and lancers. There
were nearly one hundred couples In
the march. The ladies looked most
charming In their beautiful gowns. and
there was but one who sh0ne above all
the rest but It would not be safe to
mention her name for other judges
may differ In their selection. Refresh.
ments were served In the banquet hall
at the Masonic temple. +. A. Mayfeld
OF Maui Hotel was caterer Of the even
Ing and he attended to his duties with
such satisfaction to all concerned.
The dance was kept up until after
o'clock, but the first train for Wailuku
left at midnight. This train got of
the track near the old depot. but for
tunately no one was hurt. The occu.
pants were obliged, however. to wade
In the mud ON the pitchdark night In
making their way to Wailuku. The
last Of the Wailukuans to leave the
dancing hall arrived here In u stage
about $3.50 Il, N. but Notwithstanding
the lateness OF the hour. their minds
still fingered On the happy moments
spent on the floor few hours before.
