IN through the corridors OF the famous
beach hostelry.
BY eight thirty all the guests had ar
rived and the programme was opened
by brilliant plano solo, on the Welte-
Mignon new importation into Homo
lulu, and most wonderful instrument,
whereby the brilliant artists Of the
day are accurately recorded and re-
produced There are but two of these
i'm Honolulu, and by the courtesy Of
Mr.. Adams, the audience we're given
an opportunity of hearing one of them.
The feature of the evening were
the solos composed by Mrs. Walter F..
Frear, wife of our governor, Life" and
Peace sung by Mrs. Bobo, and ac-
companied by Mrs. Frear, who has
never before consented to appear in
public on such occasions and owing to
her sympathetic touch and under
standing, the real beauty of the songs
were revealed. These were easily the
favorites of the evening, though
Roses in June and In the Great
House" composed by Mr.. Edgar A. p.
Newcomb. gained much appreciation.
The cello obligatos as played by DR..
Carl Ramus enhanced the exquisite
shading and phrasing of those two
beautiful songs "Roses in June and
Peace" DR.. Ramus gaining more lau-
rels for his already well recognized
talent.
Mr.. George Brown, who possesses a
rarely beautiful baritone voice sang
wonderfully well, especially in the two
solos of the Persian Garden"

Mrs. Bobo in her solo WORK, and Mrs.
