place on Thursday night when Miss

of Nelson Baker Lansing, the cere-
mony taking place at st. Luke's church

has resided with her aunt, Mrs.
Timothy Guy Phelps.
The attendants were Miss Ethel
Mclean, Miss Bernice Harrell Of
Bakersfield, Miss Margaret Witter of
Berkeley, Miss Marion Lally and Miss
Edna Hayward. Melville Bowman
was best man and the guests were
shown to their places by Messrs.
/ Cleighton s. Shriner, James G. Dell,
! George Gum and Derwent Kennedy.
/ William A. Chip, an uncle of the bride,
gave her away.
The bride loked girlishly pretty as
she walked up the aisle, her snowy
robes of silk and lace enhancing her
| blonde beauty One of the pretty fea-
lures of the wedding was the manner
in which the girls in the bridal pro-
cession marched up the aisle, all of
blossoms from Honolulu, this being a
compliment to the bridegroom, who
is from the islands. Miss Ethel Nc
Lean wore a gown of light green satin,,
yelled with chiffon of the same color
and embroidered in gold, while the
bridesmaids were robed similarly,
their gowns being in pink.
Mr.. and Mrs. Lansing will sail on
the 18th of March for Honolulu to re-

great heiress. She is, indeed, a treas
ure among the bellies of San Francisco,
being clever and daintily feminine,
with a flowerllke type of beauty that
sets her apart as a distinct type in
any company. When Miss Irwin posed
as the famous French beauty, Madame
Recamier, last season at the tableaux
vivants it was remarked by her friends
that there was fine appropriateness
in Miss Twins impersonation of the
young woman whose angelic face ana
tactful kindness ruled over the naugh-
ty court at that time.
Miss Irwin was educated in the con-
vents here and spent some time
abroad completing her education. She
has been much sought after, but when
her engagement to Mr.. Crocker was
announced this was no surprise, for
the two had been playmates since
their girl and boy years, and it was
a love match that delighted their
friends immensely.
The wedding will be followed by a
large reception. Ambassador and

afternoon from four to six o'clock,
when they were At Home to their
many friends and those visitors to
the islands who had desired to call.
Arcadia's beauty is one of the spots
of interest in Honolulu, and the
charming and artistic simplicity with
which the decorations are always car
ried out was augmented yesterday af-
ternoon on the occasion of Lent.
There was no music, and the quiet
est atmosphere possible prevailed.
Blossoming grape fruit sprays filled
the corners Of the reception room,
smaller boughs gracing the windows
and door arches.
On the tea table sprays of these
fragrant blossoms issued from a cut
glass column.
Receiving with Governor and Mrs.
Frear were Mrs. Benjamin F. Dilling-
ham, and Mrs. Adams, mother of Mrs.
Walter Francis Dillingham;.
Mrs. E. A. Mott-Smith and Mrs.
John Waterhouse presided at the tea
table, assisted by Mrs. John Erdman,
Miss Eloise Wichman, and Miss Ruth
Anderson.
The majority of the guests were Wis
itors to the islands, although great
many residents called during the
hours Of receiving.
The next society event of import
ance in Honolulu will be the local pro
duction of the "Mikado," which will
be seen and heard at the Opera House
on Friday and Saturday evenings.
The cast promises many rare speci
