One of the prettiest dances of the
season was the informal hop given last
night by the members of the Kunalu
Boat Club. The decorations were in
the artistic hands of Miss Ella Wight,
and the pretty ballroom was much ad-
mired in it's gala attire of flags, bunting
and greens. The guests were received
by the chaperones, Captain and Mrs.
Fay, Mr.. and Mrs. Fred Angus, and a
coterie of pretty girls. The dancing
began at $3.50 to the music of the Ha-
waiian Quintet Club.
Among those present were Capt. and
Mrs. Fay, Mr.. and Mrs. Fred Angus,
Miss Beatrice Castle. Miss Alice Cooke,
Miss Center, Miss Miner, Miss Cooper,
Miss Charlotte Hall, Miss Hopper, Miss
Sara Lucas, Miss Genevieve Langton,
Miss Madge McCandless, Miss Resta-
rick, Miss Margaret Peterson, Miss
Katherine Hopper, Maud de Bretteville,
the Misses Murphy of Helena, Mont;
Isabel Cooper, Kenny Cation, Messrs.

horn, Lowrey, Harry Lucas, Harry
Cobb, John Cation, Page, Robert Cat
ton. Edwards, Roscoe Perkins, Will War

others.
One of the prettiest women that has
ever visited in Honolulu is Mrs. Charles
Green of San Francisco. Mrs. Green is
a petite blonde with distinctly the Irish
type of beauty, possessing large blue
eyes, blonde hair and rich coloring. Mrs
Green IS frocks have been the admira-
ton of all that have seen them. most
of them being Paris creations. Mr.. and
Mrs. Green have travelled extensively
but are most enthusiastic over the beau

New York. July 16.-One of the
most remarkable breaks in the his
tory of the New York cotton market
occurred today as a result of a spe-
cial report on tn boil weeyil situ-

decline. cotton for new crop delivery
was selling at 50 bale less than the
closing price Of Thursday.
The break was marked by panicky
liquidation, and excitement seldom
aqualed except in times of complete
emoralization. Within half an hour
prices declined fully 35 points and
while the market recovered a few

closed for some time past, was re-
opened to the public Saturday undor
the management of its new proprietor
+. S. Dorsey, late of Pressure Isle, and
will without doubt be accorded it's
share of patronage. During the few
weeks which have elapsed since Mr..
Dorsey took possession of the house a
great deal Of work has been done in
the way OF cleaning up and painting,
adding new linen, bedding, etc, so that
the entire place is. now in first class
condition.
A noticeable feature is found in the
hotel office. which has been newly
painted in white. which brghtens up
that department to a marked degree.

and each table bears drop light from
the chandelier above, Prominent
among the furnishings of the office al
SO is a large wall clock which WAS
presented to Mr.. Dorsey by the COM
mercial travellers in 1903. and Of which
he thinks a great deal. Everything
around the office is arranged with a
view to making it comfortable and
homelike.
In the dining hall also many changes
have been made. The ceiling has been
frightened up with fresh paint. the
walls have been adorned with mounted
game pieces and the tables furnished
with complete set of new linen.
More work in the way of Improvement
will! be done here later. The kitchen
also has undergone a transformation
and is now as clean as lot of work
could make it.
The same evidences of Improvement
are seen throughout the upper part OF
the house The bcdsteads in every
room have been ncwly enamelled. the
bedding thoroughly cleaned and much
new linen added. new carpets laid in
many rooms and will be in all later,
dition and ready for occupancy. In fact
nothing has been left undone that IS
desired in a first class hotel.
Mr. Dorsey will have the personal
supervision Of the hotel during day

corps of assistants in the way Of help,
For a night clerk he has Harry roster
