LUAU GIVEN TO
PRESIDENT SMITH
VISITOR ENTERTAINED BY REOR-
CHRIST OF LATTER DAY SAINTS

One of the largest luaus that have
been given in Honolulu for many
years was given by Mr.. and Mrs. Hen
ry Paoa on Saturday afternoon at their
home at Waikiki in honor of President
Smith and Elder Sheehy of the Reor-
ganized Church of Jesus Christ of Lat
ter Day Saints. The band was on
hand and during the luau rendered.
Hawaiian as well as other up-to-date
music which the guests enjoyed very
much, The luau was served in a large
tent on the grounds, the guests sitting
down at six low tables. The moor OF
the tent was covered with mats and
the guests enjoyed a real Hawaiian
luau. The table decorations were very
pretty indeed. Two tables were decor
ated with yellow crepe paper and
chrysanthemums, two with red paper
and red carnations, and two with pur-
pie paper and purple asters.
President Smith, in spite of his
years, sat Hawaiian style at the luau
and seemed to enjoy it very much.
County Clerk David Kalauokalanl, Jr.,
acted as master of ceremonies, in a
commendable manner, and after the
luau was over he introduced the speak
ers to the guests present
President Smith spoke on the pleas
ure he had received on his trip here,
and the KIndness he had received ev-
eTywhere. One of the most interest
ing incidents of the luau was the meet
ing of Mrs. J. NJ. Whitney and Presi-
dent Smith Mrs Whitney's father,
L. L. Rice, was the one who found the
long lost Spalding manuscript among
a number of old papers which were
found by him at the time he bought
out printing Office in gainesville,
Ohio, many years ago. The Spalding
manuscript was the one that the Nor
mons claim to have contained theI
ideas of the Book of Mormon. In 9TH
er words that Joseph Smith had trans
cribed the romance into the Book OF
Mormon. The MormOns did not be-
lieve this, and the long lost paper was
sought for everywhere by them, and
when it was found it did not contain
anything in common with MormonTsm.
Among the guests, besides the guests
of honor, were the following Mr.. and
Mrs E. Ingham, G. j. Waller, Mr.. and
Mrs. w. d. Willard of Los Angeles, Mr..
and Mrs. Campbell of New York, Mr.

United States Has a Clean Title to
Isle RoyaIe.

Washington. Aug 5.--The state de-
partment officials are not in the least
concerned about the reported intention
of Capt Young and his party Of Cana
dams To raise the British flag over Isl"
Royale in Lake Superior. They point
out that the treaty of 1912 expressly
names the channel between Isle Roy
ale and the Canadian mainland as
marking the International boundary at
that point in Lake Superior. 50 that
there could be no question as to the
American title Of the island. Moreover
the state department has mover heard
that the Canadian government ever
challenged that title.
The island is a game preserve and in
cludcs many rich vineyards. and is a
favoritc summer resort for pcopl"
from Chicago. Milwaukee and st.
Paul in the United States and from the
larger towns of Manitoba in Canada.
If Captain Young trespasscs On any
privately owned property he will. Of
course. be dealt with according to the
law of Michigan. which exercises jul
risdiction over the island.
