SPORTS SOCIETY

The social circle has been unusually
quiet during the last week of Lent,
and such diversions as there were were
of the lesser order-small dinners and
the like. Next week may be looked to
to bring quite marked contrast.
Several dinners have been announced
for the week and a number Of infor-
NAL dances. The only one of the lat
ter which has been definitely announc-
ed is the one which will take place at
the Royal Hawaiian Hotel on next
Friday evening.
/ Although some distance in the flu
ture, society is already looking for
ward with much expectancy to the
coming of the congressional delega-
ton which is expected to arrive here
| during the first week in May. 1t is
understood that elaborate entertain
ment will be tabooed, with the excep-
| ton of probably a large formal ban
quet at the close of the eighteen days
visit after the members of the party
! have become acquainted with our
people, but there will no doubt be a
number of formal dances and en-
tertaining while the distinguished
guests remain. 1t is expected that
there will be about fifty members of
| Congress in the party, and as many
of these will be accompanied by their
wives, the party will number about IS
or 80. with the exception of possibly
week spent in visiting the other ISL
ands of the time will be spent in Ho-
nolulu and the vicinity.

acter At last evenings service the
church was crowded to suffocation,
many persons standing during the en-
tire service.

Tongues have been set wagging.
though with bated breath in confiden-
tial recital of the details of a very
small and select party which was held
one night this week on the German
training ship in the harbor. The ladies
who We're present were but two in
number and thir attendants were gaf-
liant officers OF the Kaiser They do
say that the number of champagne
corks that popped was greater than
the number In the party, and that one

assist her homeward after the supper
broke up. The husband Of the lady in
question was not Of the party.
