thoroughfares, especially Bishop street,
where the Hawaiian band attracted n
great crowd.
Festal Bishop Square.
In fact the spirit of the carnival cen.
tered around Bishop street and the
square in front of the Young Hotel.
During the early part of the evening
it was hardly possible to go up or down
either side of the street, the crowd con
costing on both sides The Hawaiian
band played under canopy and the
colored lights strung across the side.
walks, coupled with the music, created
festival scene that has seldom been
equaled in Honolulu before.
To those who are spending their first
Christmas in tropical country the
celebration last night appealed to them
as one filed with a quaintness and
orientalism one rarely finds in any
other parts of the world at this season
of the year. Side by side under the
blue and red and green lights of Bishop
street walked the American, the Slavi
the Filipino, the Japanese, the Chinese
the Spanish, the Portuguese, the Rus
sian, the German and the Englishman
with his cane and tweed walking suit
In fact nearly every race IN the world
was present and participated in the
confetti and horn-blowing iollification
Reserve and dignity were lost in that
cosmopolitan crowd For one evening
in all the year, the classes and masses
mingled in one spirit of merriment and
forgot the conventions which bind then
J to caste and social position. There was
ia prevailing camaraderie of brother
hood and sisterhood that swept the
throngs into a whirlpool of exultation
Hour after hour the crowd surget
back and forth, first down one side o.
Bishop street then the other, then owe
to Fort street and back, scattering con
fetti, cheering the musicians as the.
played the favorite airs, tickling thu
passersby with feathers and then wind
ing up with gay informal dance oil
the smooth cement walks.

CHARMING ANNOUNCING
OF AN ENGAGEMENT
Delightful Pre-Christmas Party
Surprised by Cards of

HILo, December ga pretty bit of
romance, dating back to the summer OF
1911, was cleverly told at Wainaku
Lawns on Thursday evening, December
10. The occasion was a Christmas
dance given by Mr.. and Mrs. John Ali
son Scott for their daughter, Miss
Margaret Scott.
Found concealed in gorgeous Ameri-
can Beauty roses, which were presented
to the guests as they assembled for the
first figure of the cotilion, was tiny
envelope enclosing card on which
were two arrow pierced hearts, and in
scribed Margaret Scott, Richard L..
Hughes"
AS it was generally understood to be
a Christmas dance, the announcement
came as surprise TO Miss Scott s
friends, who did not anticipate that this
was to be so momentous an occasion,
not only to the young lady herself, but
to Hilo and the Islands, for owing to
the prominence of the family in Hilo 8
doings, their wide circle of friends both
here and away, the affair is notable and
far-reaching in its pleasurable interest
After the happy young people were
congratulated and showered with good
wishes, cotllliOns followed plain
dances to the music of an excellent
quintet orchestra. The cotillion favors
were exquisite, both in color and orig
inality. and will long be treasured as
souvenirs of Hilo IS most brilliant
function.
At midnight a delicious supper was
served in the lanai dining room where
the decorations were red carnations and
maidenhair fern, a large band OF
poinsettias giving the Christmas touch

IN ROMANCE CASE

(Mail Special to The Advertiser.)
HILO, December 23-The romance of
a pretty japanese geisha, hajimi, came
up like bit Of sunshine among the
dreary matters # divorce, equity and
probate before Judge Parsons last
week, Kajimi, who is said to be but
thirteen years old, is alleged to have
eloped recently with Chujiro Ishii, a
bright young Japanese who works for
p. c. Beamer.

had married without the consent of her
parents.
The lovers took refuge with Attor-
ney Irwin, who appeared to advantage
as Cupid IS champion, succeeding in get

Arrangement in POstoffice for
Registering Packages
Causes PiIikia.
POSTMASTER DOESN'T CARE
Lack of System Believed to Be
ResponsibIe-Clerks Work
Overtime.
(From wcndncsday Advertiscr)

Lack of system at the Honolulu post
office has never been more aptly Illus
trated than for the past two weeks
when busy men and women, after wait
ing in various lines to reach delivery
or receiving windows, are told to go to
another window.
Patrons have stood for twenty to
thirty minutes in n line and upon reach
ing the window are CURLY told to 90
to another window. The registry di-
vision yesterday was an example of in
difference in letting the public know
where they should get parcels. Peo-
pie stood in line for twenty minutes
to half an hour waiting to reach the
window over which is n board labeled,
+" Registry Division, Delivery Window"
Upon reaching it and showing the
'tafd for package the holder is told
to go to another window. No plneard
is displayed by which patrons of the
postoffice can be directed, but each one
falls into the line and finds after spend
ing half an hour that another window is
the one through which the package will
be delivered.
The clerks and Postmaster Pratt
were unobligiug in this matter and
when asked why they did not place
cards which would direct patrons, were
told that they could kick if they
wanted to and they didn't care. Post
master Pratt was particularly explosive
on this point and said to one kicker to
keep on kicking, that would be all there
was to it.
A few nights ago man stood in line
to get to the stamp window, had his
package weighed and was then told to
go to another window to have n receipt
made out. The second clerk weighed
the package and said there was not
enough postage. The patron was told
to go back to the first window and had
to fall into line for n ten minute wait.
When he reached the window and told
of the second clerk IS demand for more
postage, the two clerks engaged in n
heated discussion across the postoffice
as to which one was correct. The
patron, meanwhile, had to buy addi-
tional postage and go to the second
window again, falling into the line and
ten minutes later reached the window
where he was finally given the receipt.
In many instances the patron has to
buy at one window on the Honolulu
Hale side and then do marathon
around the building to the Bethel street
side to finish up the matter

MOTHER LOSES SON
BY COURTS AWARD
Habeas Corpus Proceedings End
in Little Sammy Going
to Relative.
(Mall Special to The Advertiser.l


HILO, December 23. Forced by
habeas corpus proceedings, brought by
a relative of her deceased husband,
Mary Kaua, a Hawaiian woman from
Waiakea, was forced last Friday to
bring into court her en-year-old son,
Samuel Kaua, and to deliver him to
the relative, Samuel Kaleo Hama.
Mary Kaua's husband, from whom
she had at the time been divorced, died
less than a year ago from injuries
which he had received while employed
by the Hilo Railroad Company. The
company settled $4,000 on the children
of the deceased, thirteenyear
girl, an eight-year-old boy and Samuel,
named above.
The girl had by virtue of her age
the right to nominate her own guard
ian. She selected her mother. The
youngest son had, when he was an in
FAINT. been given to Samuel Kaleo
Hama, and had remained with him ever
since, so about him there was no dis
pute. About young Sam, however,
there was some trouble, possibly some.
what aggravated by the fact that of
the money paid over by the railroad
company certain monthly sum was
paid for his maintenance.
Finally the court awarded s. X. Ha-
ma the custody of Sam but the end
was not yet, for the mother refused
to give up the boy. IT was then that
habeas corpus proceedings were insti'
tnted. with the result that she was COM
PEELED TO turn the boy over to Hama.

Honolulu remembered Christmas Eve
in something like the usual way and
gave simply foretaste of what the
celebration of New Year s Eve will be
next Tuesday night. Of course, the ma
ioritv of the merchants, who are the
souls of such festivals, had decided to
move the night celebration to date ac-
claimed the world over as holiday,
but tins did not prevent the people
from packing the streets.
China for the first time will celebrate
it's New Year with the other nations
this wear, and consequently the New
Years Eve celebration here will par
take of features never seen before,
There were crowds on the streets last
night, but the question was, whether
the crowds which were seeking entrance
to the stores to buy belated Christmas
gifts were equal to the crowds jamming
the sidewalks intent upon having a
good times
Throngs of Merrymakers.
Nevertheless, the spirit of carnival
was in The air, and as soon after dinner
as the people could get out they threw
all care to the winds and Joined in the
qualifications which made the evening
IN the downtown streets, and especially
around Bishop square, gay with the
happy and picturesque throngs of mer'
rymakors.
Naturally there was bedlam of noise
with the footing of horns and rafting
of rattles, the ringing of bells and the
call of the wild, but gentle policemen
to "keep on your side of the street
Altogether, the crowd and every en-
tity deserved credit for the orderly
manner in which it, and they. conduct
ed the affairs of the carnival. There
was very little hoodlumism, but there
was plenty of the harmless sort o.
horse play and everybody laughed ant
the spirit of cheerfulness pervaded thu
