~ HE concert 10 ne given at tne
Hawaiian Opera House on next
Tuesday evening is attracting
great deal of attention. part
~ on account of the program,
- which has been selected with
great deal Of care. and part
~ on account of the fact that the
local lodge of Elks have taken the
concert in charge and are going TO
donate their share to the Palama Set
Element, and thus keep up their repu-
tation for benevolcnce, which is one
OF the leading features of the order.
Among the numbers on the pro-
gram, and standing forth most promi-
nently unsteady, Ia the "inilamma-
tus" from Stabat Mater, In which
Mrs. Harrison will be assisted by the
full chorus which she has been re-
hearsing. and which is most am
bilious effort Two of her solos will
have violin obligato by Mr. w A.
Love. whose work has added so much
TO the enjoyment of our local con
