The arrival of Mackenzie Gordon,
the celebrated tenor, has stirred the
interest Of Honolulu musicians to a
greater extent than any other one.
thing for some time. 1t is not often
that artists of as high talent as Mr..
Gordon come here, and consequently
the most must be made of one when
he does arrive. AS a social affair Cor
dons rectials to be given in the Opera
House will probably rank in first order
Gordon is not unknown ito many of
Honolulu's musicians, some of whom
have heard him in years past on the
Coast. His voice is exceptional

The pleasant home of Mr.. and Mrs.
Theodore Richards, on Kinau street was
crowded on Thursday evening with
the members and friends of the Music
Club of Honolulu, attending the last
of the weekly meetings of the club for
the season. The affair was a most
pleasant one and the program render
ed was one of the very best of the
many excellent ones which the ladies
of the organization have given in the
past several months.
There are few musical clubs anywhere
that have been more in earnest in their
work or attained a higher standard OF
excellence than has the Music Club OF
Honolulu. Unlike many, the ladies
who compose the membership are all
true musicians, and the name of the
organization is in no sense mis-
homer. Their success has been earn
ed by hard and conscientious work.

was rendered in a most praiseworthy
