Dance Al the PIeasanton.

Dance at the PIeasanton.
The dance given last Saturday
night al the Pleasanton by Mrs. Mary
Gum and Miss White was delight
full and very interesting affair. Many
Honolulu people had not seen the
Tango or any OF the new dances be-
fore and were particularly anxious 10
witness the exhibition given before
the dance by the two hos5esses. Gen
eral surprise was expressed by most
of the uninitiated over the Tango,
most of them having expected a rag
sJep of ssme kind. In reality the
Tango is a South American folk
dance and is as graceful as the old
fashioned minuet without the least
suggestion of a rag. Mrs. Gum and
Miss White also gave exhibitions OF
the Hesitation waltz, Manhattan
glide, the one-step, the College Bos-
ton. the Tango two-step and the Pa
mama Rose, the last named being
the only dance that limited of rag
time. After this enjoyable perform
ance the guests joined in the dane
ing. most of them patterning their
steps after the graceful dances that
had gone before. Among those pres
ent at the affair were Mr.. and Mrs.
Walter Dillingham;, Mr.. and Mrs. A.

Stewart is a prominent figure of the
Los Angeles smart set. Her hus-
band is the vice-president of the Far
