DAMAGING FIRE IN WAIMEA
Special to The Garden IilanJ.
Waimea, March 27. Fire which
originated in the dropping of a
lamp, destroyed the residents and
contents belonging to Mr.Theveuin
at 3 o'clock yesterday morning.
Mrs. Thevenin had gotten out of
bed and taken the lamp in her
hand which in some manner she
let fall. The bedding instantly be
came ignited and Mrs. Thevenin
rushed into the yard screaming for
help. But no one was suffi
ciently near to be of any assistance
in saving anything.
Mr. Thevenin is in Honolulu but
will not return owing to a wireless
to the effect that Mrs. Thevenin
intends leaving for Honolulu by
the next steamer. An unfortunate
feature of the fire, is the fact that
Mr. and Mrs. Thevenin had all
their household goods packed, pre
paratory to moving to Honolulu,
Mr. Thevenin preceding the family
to prepare for them. The building
and its contents were a total loss.

NEW CLUB IS ORGANIZED
On the afternoon of the 25th. of
March there was an informal meet
ing of the promoters of a new
social club at the home of Mr. and
Mrs. J. M. Lydgate. The club is
to be known as the Grove Farm
Neighborhood Club, to meet once a
month in rotation at the homes of
the members. The purpose of the
organization is to promote a spirit
of sociability and good fellowship
and. prevent the development of
lines of clearage or class feeling.
So far as we have learned there is
little or jio organization, no officers,
uo duesi no constitution and by
laws, and by one condition of
racjibp'rship, viz. "Do your share 1
and take your turn!" T""
The hosts on any particular !
occasion may write a limited mini-1
ber of guests outside the member-1
ship of the club. The membership
of the club is as follows: Mr. G.
N. Wilcox, Patron; Mr. and Mrs.
I. M. Lydgate, Mr. and Mrs. E.
W. Broadbent, Mr. and Mr. F.
Carter, Mr. and Mr. R. L. Wilcox,
Mr. and Mrs. A. D. Hills, Mr.
and Mrs. A. de Brettevllle, Mr. de
Lacy, the Misses Mumford, Ayre,
Jordan, Wells, Roscoe and Al
bright. This is a most commendable new
departure, the influence of which
cannot fail to be beneficial. Long
may the Grove Farm Neighbor
hood Club prosper and may be
their festive gatherings.

NOVEL EVENING OF FUN
One of the most novel and
original entertainments ever given
in Lihue was that provided by Mr.
and Mrs. J. M. Lydgate on Friday
evening by way of Launching the
new Neighboihood Club which has
been organized by the Grove Farm
Vicinage.
Part 1 of the program which
follows below consisted of a varied
presentation of vocal and violin
music recitations a n d tableau
with quick transitions from grave
to gay all sprightley and enter
taining, culminating in "The Bad
Night," in which two popular but
inexperienced bachelors man and
maiden blessed for the time being
with twins, showed' very" com
clusively that they knew how to
handle them when they suddenly
developed colic in the middle of the
nignt. Prom tne pained look on
the father's face, some maintained
that it was he who had the colic
and not the baby.
The young ladies of the School
Cottage shed a halo of glory about
themselves bv their impersonations
of the Lost Bride in the Magic
Mirror tableau. Henceforth some
of our young men will do well to
"sit up" and take notice of tlcm.
The "Mill -Pond Maidens" also
took their parts very charmingly
and won much favor.
Mrs. Ptitman and Mrs. Hills, as
always, were demurely sweet, and
were listened to with rapt attention.
The second part o f the pro
gram consisted of about a dozen
presentations of popular" Ads" in
tableau form to be guessed by the
audience with a prize for the best
answers.
Some of these were simple and
easy to guess, such as "Jello" and
"Bakers Chocolate" and less
familiar.
In "Cream of Wheat" twodainty
young ladies impersoi ated little
girls in short dresses and bibs seat
ed on the floor, lost ' i a big bowl
of mush. "Rexall Hair Tonic"

The Climax of the Series was
"Onvx Silk Stockings," half n

on a screened couch. These were
happily styled "the 12 Tempta

of wild guesses as to the wearers of
tins' stockings, but one pair i n
particular, a prettv brown, are said
to be authoritatively located.

added much to the beauty of the
scenes.
