The band concert and ball at the

prettiest affairs ever given there.

were present including many notable
people, and some very pretty women
and beautiful gowns we're in evidence.
The makai hall of the hotel is favo-
rite pavilion for dancing and towns
people always take advantage of the
excellent floor, good music and out
of-door gardens. Between the dances
the guests strolled out among the
palms and ferns and scattered about in

breeze and the perfect musical selec-
tions rendered by the Goth Infantry
band. Among those present were
noted Prince and Princess Kalania-
naole, Judge and Mrs. Woodruff, Gov

men and ladies of the Congressional
party.
Major and Mrs. Ray entertained at
dinner at the Young hotel Thursday
evening A large overhanging cen-
teTpiece of American Beauties and the
reflection of the soft light from pink

charming effect. The place cards in
the form of a single red carnation and
stem, were very artistic. The guests
included Governor and Mrs. F'rear,

Arcadia the beautiful home OF
Governor and Mrs. Frear, was a scene
of gaiety on Tuesday where a recep-
ton in honor of the Congressional
visitors was held from four to six.
The shady lawn was festive with ele-
CANT gowns, beautiful women and pres
ty girls who stood in groups laughing
and chatting, or strolled about, ad-
miring the decorations Flags OF all
nations were festooned overhead be-
tween the trees, and music was rem
dered by the Hawaiian band. Here
and there the striking colors of black
and gold of the Kaahumanu Woman's
Society and the white with yellow leis
of the Owls, added a characteristic
of the truly Hawaiian.
Upon the arrival of Her Majesty
Queen Liliuokalani, the band played
Hawaii Ponoi the old national anthem
and all rose to receive her with honor.
Two informal courts were held be-

thing and especially the sweet singing
of Mrs. Alapai.
