her attendants are the same women
who attended her in the brilliant days
Of the monarchy. In the drawing-room
are seen the old, silken royal stand
ards of Hawaii. In the trains of
guests are the highest federal, terri
torial and city officials; there are
jurists, generals and admirals, states
men and writer's. Social life in old
Hawaii still centers in Washington
place and all delight in honoring the
beloved queen. The people of Hawaii
who overturned the monarchy still
give sincere homage to this woman.
Impress Of the Monarchy.
That is one side of the social activi-
ties in Hawaii. The monarchy made its
impress upon the people and their GUS
toms in the past, and many of these
customs of habit and precedence have
not yet been overcome, for the Ell
quette of the court of st. James pre-
vailed at the palace during the reign
of King Kalakaua and Queen Liliuo-
kalani. The levees, at which presenta-
tons were made, were based in form
and style upon those given in Buck
ingham palace.
With the change in the government
and the setting up of republic, the
president of the republic, Sanford Bal
lard Dole, former United States judge,
and Mrs. Dole became the arbiters of
official social life in Hawaii. Mrs. Dole
was the social hostess of Hawaii );
around them were the descendants of
the early missionaries, New England
ers mainly, whose culture, educational
and religious training have brought
Hawaii to its high state of civilization
in the last 100 years.
There are as many beautiful gowns
seen in Hawaii as in the cities of the
mainland. In former days, when Ha-
wall was an Independent country,
silks and satins and the finer fabrics
were easier to obtain than now. In
the old days the opera house would
be filled with beautifully gowned wom-
en-, and men always wore conven-
tional evening clothes. The formal
affairs were and are characterized by

such toilets as are seen in London
Paris and Berlin.
The army now forms a large part
of the population of Honolulu. Its
uniforms are seen at all formal af-
fairs; in fact, the companies that as
semble in Honolulu are often far more
brilliant than are to be met in main.
land cities. The social code of Homo
lulu is strict, and formality demands
a regard for the rules that have been
found necessary for the common good
of society everywhere. The city of
Honolulu is divided into social dis
tricts, all of the women of the same
neighborhood receiving on the same
day.
Stranger Not Held AIoof.
The stranger must needs yield ref
erence to entitle him to entry into the
conservative circle of social Honolulu.
The stranger, however, is not held
aloof. Every opportunity is afforded,
whenever possible, for the stranger to
mingle on equal terms with the resi-
dents. The outdoor life favors such
mingling-the life around the hotels,
the sea beaches, the homes with their
wide-open porches or 'lanais," as the
inslanders term them; the town clubs
and country clubs, the army posts the
varied forms of public amusement. All
these tend to bring the stranger into
the midst of the social life of the
capital.
There is the "smart set; ;" there is
the conservative set; there is the
royalty set; there are many social
circles in Honolulu. Among the most
active entertainers are the Princess
Kawananakoa, a beautiful part-Ha-
waiian woman of culture and brilliant
accomplishments, and Prince and
Princess Kalanianaole prince Cupid,
for short, they say), whose delightful
old villa at Waikiki is the scene of
many and wonderful parties. Prince

! destiny in 1893, when the
reigning queen was deposed and re-
public set up, and five years later
when the republic became a territory
of the United States of America, the
romance of the Old-time government
disappeared with the furling of the
beautiful Hawaiian flag But the old,
moonlit nights still remain; the same
Incompatible climate still enthralls,
and the tinllle and the strum of the
ukulele and guitar are heard beneath
the coconut palms as the native Ha-
waiians sob their ear-haunting melo-
dies, writes a special correspondent of
the Christian Science Monitor from
Honolulu.
No longer is the old palace filled
with diplomatists of foreign stations
distinguished generals, admirals, writ
ers and playfolk are no longer re-
ceived in the old throne room by a
Hawaiian king and queen. OF all the
old regime, there still remains only
the deposed queen, Liliuokalani, liv-
ing still eventful life in Washington
place, the home of her husband, the
prince consort; a home filled with rel
les of the days of royalty; reminders
of the days when King Kalakaua was
the monarch, and she queen herself,
during brief reign of two years.
Today, however, the queen is hon.
ored in Washington place and else
where as if she sat upon the throne of
old Hawaii. On Hawaiian holidays, on

Ybab loves to lead her little Orches-

"It's a Party continued Effie Elf,
where we all Dance with the Golden
Rods-and we dress up just like Col

doesn't know us from the Flowers.
Or, at least she pretends she can't tell
us apart and that makes such funn
"'All right, let's get started. Who
is going to tell the Golden Rod Family
about it?'
81 WILL said Fairy Silver Bell.
"She went with her Silver Wand
over to the big Field which was full
of beautiful Golden Rods all Dancing
about in the Breeze, and she whis-
pered to them:
"'Come, we're going to have a
Party
"'Have you asked Mr.. Sum- said
the Golden Rods.

will right away And she whispered
in the soft Breeze once more:
"'Mr. Sun, come join the Fun,
And Dance with us today.
For We have the Golden Rods,
Who are 50 bright and gay
And Mr.. Sun whispered back in the
Breeze:
You know that Mr. Sun,
Is always out for Fun,
It's only on Rainy day
That | haven't heart to play
''Fairy Silver Bell laughed in her
lovely silvery voiced way, and the
Party began.
1.-THE Golden Rods all stood up very
fine and straight and looked brighter
and more golden than ever, and the
Elves and Fairies quickly changed in
to costumes that looked very much
like Golden Rods too.
"They Danced in and out of the
Golden Rods in the field, and of course,
soon came along the Fairy Queen.
'"Dear me-, she said, 4 wonder
where all the Elves and Fairies are to-
day. Here's the most gorgeous Field
of Golden Rods. / wouldn't be sur
prised to find them here
She flew over the Field several
times, and then she alighted very gent
ly on top of one of the Golden Rods.
"'Well, you're not Fairy she
said.
