Many receptions, dinners and dances
are being planned for the entertain
ment of the officers of the fleet when
they arrive, and the days will hardly
be long enough to get everything in.
Honolulu except in the days of the
monarchy has never been as gay as it
will be when the ships are here.
The dance that will be given at the
Seaside and Moana Hotels the night
after the fleet arrives promises to be
the greatest event that has ever been
given in Honolulu.
The list of patronesses will include
the leading matrons in society, and no
expense will be spared to make it
glorious and brilliant success.
The Mascot will be presented tonight
for the third and last time at the Opera
House, commencing at Sis. The seats
have nearly all been taken, and the
smart set is expected to be present in
large numbers.
eight girls in the Ma Cherie" song
will probably repeat the success they
have made on the otner two nights,
and it is well worth paying admission
to see them.
Society is looking forward to the
Congress of Song which will be given
next Friday night at the Opera House.
Three hundred voices will be in the
different choruses, and Mrs. Bruce
Mackall and Mrs Dr. O'Day will be
among the soloists.

of the club house was also tastefully
decorated with lights, ferns and other
ported plants At the back of the plat
form the flag of Brazil entwined with
the flags of Portugal and America,
made a very pretty picture.
A committee of ladies met each Wis
iting officer at the entrance to the
hall, and placed a ribbon on his left
arm, After the officers had met those
present, the strains of the quintet club
were heard and the grand march was
started, which was led by Major Ca
