The City Improvement Circle S ex-
pertinent in giving it's entertainment in
the market building on Mckinley Is
birthday resulted very satisfactorily
To take a building in the state in
which it at first was, as all places IN
used are, and make it possible for an
entertainment hail was gigantic task,
but with the kind help of friends and
business firms the result, though far
from perfect, was made possible.
Those who helped were:
Healani Boat Club, Davies & Co.,
Haekfeld & Co., Inter-Island Co., Ma
tionaI Guard, Pilot office, Mr.. c. Mac
farIane, Young Bros, Capt Orwell, Mu-
tual Telephone Co., Government electric
department, Board of Health, Col. C.
P. Iaukea, Marston Campbell, Col. Sam
johnson, Rev DIR. Scudder, Bishop
Restariek, Judge Kingsbury, B. F. Dill
lingham, George Castle, Theo. Rich
ards, c. G. Ballentyne, Geo. osborne,
Mr.. Barry, Mr.. Webster, Levers &
Cooke and many others.
The greatest surprise was the large
crowd other than invited guests who
assembled in the side wings, and kept
up constant babble mainly upon their
views of the Kilohana Art League s
plan for the Identification and COM
pleting of the structure. This mate
rally interfered with the acoustic
qualities necessary for the speaking
voice, as illustrated during the por-
tions of the program devoted to the
able addresses by DR.. Seudder, Bishop
Restarick and Judge Kingsbury.
The musical part of the program was
both rendered and heard very well.
When the stage with its walls at the
back and sides are built in and a
sounding board placed in the rafters di-
rectly opposite, Honolulu will be in pos
session of one of the most admirable
concert pavilions, west of Salt Lake
City.
Next Saturday afternoon probably
Capt. Berger will give a concert at the
Market building. Several vocal selec-
tions viii be given in order that the
singing voice especially for solo work
may be heard by the representative of
the Congress of Songs committee.
The most efficient way would be to
have the Mckinley Memorial Com
mittee put into effect the Art League
plan before the Congress of Songs is
given.
Mr.. Everton of the Seamen's In
stitute is authority for saying that if
the indoor park could be completed by
the time the large fleet arrives, con-
certs, sacred and otherwise given for
the sailors would reflect a great deal of
credit upon Honolulu. Tt would GER
tainly be great stroke for the pro-
motion of our city as place where the
representatives of our country in the
navy could be made thoroughly CAT
Home.'
Many fattering and encouraging
messages have been received by the
City Improvement circle in its present
work.

The next entertainment to be given
in the Market building will be the
Mardi Gras on the third of March,
The entire building will be used for
this purpose and already elaborate
are begun. The directors
of the Kilohana Art League are re-
sponsible for the arrangement of every
detail and the chairman will be the
same as last year.
