SAM
ENLISTED

Now the grounds and approaches of
the Immigrant Station are to be made
beautiful F. NJ. Bechtel, Inspector-in-
chief of immigration, has just received
authority from Washington to pur-
chase cocoanut trees for that purpose
Mr.. BeChtel said last night that the
trees would be planted SO as to sur
round the station and line all the
streets leading to it. Situated as it is
at the entrance of Honolulu harbor,
the station with its immediate en-
virons, when the trees have grown,
will give the arriving stranger one OF
his first agreeable impressions of Ho
nolulu. The waving piumes, also, Will
make the impression a tropical one.
They will recall instantly, to all who
have read it, the delectable prose poem
of Marx Twain. in which he voices his
soul warnings to be again in Hawaii.
Certainly, this planned improvement
of the immigration Station shows that
there is no tagging behind of the Fed
eral authorities here in the movement
for Identification of the city. Indeed,
the work that was begun Immediately
after annexation, in beautifying the
military parade grounds and the naval
station premises, may be credited as
the initiation of recent park improve
ment in Honolulu.

OREGON GIRLS At
The YOUNG hotel

The ball at the Alexander Young
Hotel last evening in honor of the
Oregon girls was very pretty affair
and well attended by local society folk
and visitors to Hawaii The evening
was perfect, save for a shower earlier
in the evening, and even this was re-
frcshing. The Roof Garden was bril-
liantly Illuminated and with the
numerous potted plants with which it
is garnished, it was delightful
promenade between dances. The Ka-
al Quintet Club furnished delightful
Hawaiian music for the dances and
all the features were a source of de-
light to the young ladies from Oregon.
The young women were prettiIy
gowned and as all are excellent dancers
they danced every number on the pro-
gram In fact, although the guests
of honor, they Were the bellies of the

THE KROOSTCHEfF
CONCERT TONIGHT

A most satisfactory sale of tickets is
announced for the concert to be given
at Punahou Hall this evening and it
looks as if Honolulu s entire musical
world will be there. The program car
ries its own certificate of merit That
it will be most capably rendered is GER
tain
Honolulu is not often favored by the
visit of a pianist so accomplished as
Mile. Kroostcheff Her study of the in
strument has been with her task in
which her heart entered, and the in
tricacies of technique, under her manip-
ulation, become quite subordinate to the
spirit that pervades the compositions
which she essays.
So admirable an exponent of the
school of modern classics deserves every
possible encouragement and although
her engagements permit her to give
only one concert here, there is no doubt
that her engaging presence and excel
lent artistic poise, will compel the gen
eral admiration and support of those
who lean to the best in music. To-
night s program is as follows:

stilt-Racinr in winter.

Silt races are just the thing for q
group of healthy young people who
must do something new all the time
on their holidays. Stout poles about
eight feet long, with blocks of wood
either nailed or dashed firmly to the
poles about two feet from the ground,
furnish the equipment. The "stilters"
rest the foot on these blocks, little
forward of the heel, and the poles are
passed under the arms and held firmly.
Mark out a course Of hundred yards
or so, and offer prize to the one
who first crosses the line. The awk-
ward stalking and stumbling Of the
competitors, unused to such strange
footgear, will be ludicrous to all who
see it. If there is danger Of walking
ON ice hidden by the snow, it will be
wise to put sharp-pointed iron fer
rules on the bottoms Of the stills, as
otherwise some bad tumbles may re-
suit. Country Life in America.
