"A Garden Of Japan" at the IA
mehameha School for Girls

On Saturday evening. April 10,
moonlight brooding and rain absent,
kimona maids will present the
picturesque operetta "A Garden of
Japan" Preceding the operetta Mrs.
Charles L. Hall will be heard in two
solos, and four choruses will be given
Mendelssohn's Spring Song. the
Fairies Revel. Sullivan; Night, Franz;
Sunbeam, Ronald.
The argument OF the little opera is
as follows The idea that, for the
purposes of poetry, flowers are en-
dowed with speech and song Is one
that originated in Japan. It seemed,
therefore, appropriate, that the scene
of the Operetta should be Japan.
The plot of the little piece is ale
gorical, and Is meant to point out
that it is not the snowy people who
are of most use to their fellow
creatures, but those that lie low aSd
are always ready to help when they
are wanted, though they may not be
thought much of by their more world
ly neighbors.

One Of the largest, as well as most
novel affairs OF the week was the Cafe.
terra luncheon given by Mrs. George
r. Carter In honor of Mrs. Quinley and
Mrs. Ward OF Rochester. N. Y. In
stead of sitting down to the conven-
tional tiffin, the ladies helped them
selves to what they wanted from a
gToaning table. The dining room and
parlor we're decorated In typical Ha-
waiian style, with the beautiful green
'iaia," and lilies in two shades of yell
low. In the hallway were great
clumps of Gala lilies and spear ferns.
Mrs. Carter was ably assisted in her
unusual luncheon by Mrs. ]. r. Gait,
Mrs. G. p. Wilder, Mrs Harry Mac

~ and as there are TO be num-
Der OF large affairs of another
type. a few words may be said upon
the answering of invitations. Neglect
ed acceptances or regrets often put a
hostess to great deal of inconveni-
ence, for while q vacancy may be
filled a reasonable time Eefore an en-
tertainment II is almost Impossible
TO secure a substitute at the last mo-
ment unless some friend offers his
services.
There are almost as many informal
invitations issued today as there are
formal ones and because the invita-
lions are sof an informal nature, the
invited guests often neglect to answer
them. The answer to an invitation
should always be worded as nearly
like the invitation as possible.
II the invitation is written in the
first person the acceptance must be
written in that person.
An objectionable oEense and still
one that Is pardoned very often In
Honolulu is the writing OF accepts"
or regrets beneath the name Of
the guests calling card. This Is one
OF the greatest breaches of efiuuette
in the social xorld, stu. through ig-
norance perhaps IL Is practiced to a
large extent.
Invitas.ons to luncheons. dinners,
theater parties and card parties
should be answered Immediately, and
in any OF these cases a proyisionable
answer is not allowable. If there is

place resembled a miniature fairy
land. Great stony pillars and arches
formed the resting place for masses
OF ferns. From the rafters, along the
sides and all around grew wonderful
clumps of diaphanous maidenhair and
gorgeous orchids of all descriptions.
The air was filled with the fragrance
Of these exquisite flowers, mingled
with the dainty perfume from great
bowls of vioiets. Electric lights, con-
cealed in many.hued Japanese Ian
terms, cleaned from behind the ferns
like the light from jswel-tinted stars.
The guests sat at small tables OF
four, and as each different course
came on, the men progressed. Unique
as everything else, the favors were
bright, blinking, fat owls, carrying
packs on their backs in which were
paper caps and balloons. A heavy
card with the name of the hostess
home, "Haleola," in raised gold letters
marked each persons place. Seated at
enc end Of the long room, a quintet
played sweet melodies, giving the las.
touch TO make the occasion ideal.
After supper the guests all adjourn
cd TO the main house. where they
found, to their great surprise, the.
floors cleared for dancing, and the
smiling quintet waiting to strike up
the Robert Il. Lee"
Although the affair was informal,
there were many beautiful gowns. The
hostess, Mrs. Wall, wore a lacy white
dress over yellow satin, with q girdle
and sash Of the yellow. The guest of
honor. Miss MurieI Howatt, was pi-
duante and charming in frock of blue

of blue and old gold.

Chattanooga, Tenn, May 4.-Some
mighty good stories are related by
writer's of books and pamphlets about
the fighting around Chattanooga in
1868. Gen. Gordon, for instance, tells
of a lunged federal soldier
coming up the side of Lookout noun
tain from Wauhatchie with his COM
mand TO the assault on the Confed
crates around the Cravens house.
This fellow had most amazing
voice it could be heard miles away
While the Yanks We're toiling up
the mountain, putting and blowing,
this private soldier with the large
voice sang to a manufactured tune:
big pig, Little pig, Root hog or die"
The Confedarates heard him and
cheered regardless of the fact that
they knew they were soon to engage
in deadly combat.
Gen. William c. Oates tells of an
enterprise of his own to take Will
liams' island away from the Yanks.
That island is just below the point
of Lookout mountain. 1t contains
about 1000 acres of the richest
ground on the Tennessee river. VIII
liams, having been bothered a great
deal by the Yankees, applied to Gen.
Oates Tor protection. The ConfedeT
ates were hard pressed for something
to eat, and grazing was reported
good on Williams island-fine corn
and pumpkins. Williams, accord
ing to Gen. Oates, related that there
we're only a few federal troops Oh
the island and that they could easily
