Since tbe occupation of Cuba,

mirers of tbo Prcaidout holding
commissions in tho army aud

reach tbo Executive Mansion were
from Manila. They wero tbe
familiar lone black dears of tbat
country. Almost every officer of
tbo army returning from Cuba
and Potto Rico Iisb a box or two
of cigars for tbo President. These
cigars are specially mado for pre
sentation to the Chief Execntivo
and aro composed of tho finest to
bacco grown in the islands. As a
result of this remembrance on tbo
part of bis frionds, the President
has a larco supply of the finoU

smoking them. Ho is a believer
in tbe theory that tobacco smoke

Mr. Smith contemplated the

As overylhing at tho last mo
ment before tho event promised,
tbo Victorian Imtl at tbe N. G. II.
Armory lust night proved an oc
casion of great delight and plea
sure. Tbo cumpleto account of tho
decorations givon in this paper
yesterday could not convey tho
full impression made when tho
electric light was on in full glor.
(Jertainly there never was a more
sym metrical aud expressive scheme
of tesUl displty presented to tho
eyes of this oommunity. The
Queen's portrait, tho mottoes and
quotation, the symbolry of tbe
Uuited Kingdom and various com
ponents of tbe Erapiro, the glori
ioub and pathetic chronology in
figures of fire on oithor side of tun
royal monogram in similar blazing
character nil stood out inoro in
harmony than contrast with the
profuse aggregation of tbo ban
ners of Christendom aud the uni
versal codo of the seas in elo
ouencj of heraldry aud warmth of
color. To the constructive talent
of Geo. L. Dill, architect, aud tho
skillful poncil of Vigo Jacobin,
artist, and tbo unwearying uireo
tion of Y. Horace Wrigut secre
tary of general 0111 nittee. toet
her witb the willing hands of
men of tho U. S. Sixth Artillery
and of tho Nitionl Guard of Ha
waii, is due the grand decorative
result achieved.
All of the arrangements for the
comfort and pleasure of tbo guests
were of a sort that in some ros
pects at least, rauif bo taken as thr
iuitiative of improved methods of
conducting entertainments on a
largo bchIo in Honolulu. Mention
is to bo made particularly of the
attoring department, in which
there had been competition for tbe
contract aB to quality as well ns
piece, and, regatdiug tbo'sorvicp,a
followiuc of the best modes of pri
vate garden parties and protracttd
public festivals. Tbo seoarato
cloak and social rooms for gentle
men as wen as lames was an
agreeable feature. All of tbe rules
published in advance wero mo-d
excellent, but, with respoct to tho
approach of carriages for instanco,
woro nocremouiously anu unac
countably ignored to a too great
extont. This, together with some
ub-ence of direction iu tho work
of tbe reception committee, only
served by contraries to show tbe
excellence of the general intention.
Of the progressive Bupper itself,
served bv tho Homo Bakery Com
pany, ordinary roportorial phrase
would bo inadequate. The cuieino
was of a high order, the viands of
choice variety both substantial
anil delioate, and there was no
falling off, either in supply or ex
cellence, to tho&o who sat down
late from wbnt wa served to early
partakers of the good things. No
thine could havo been more com
modious and comfortable than tbo
large round tent whoro the suppor
was given.
Beverages woro provided by tbo
general commiteo iu two of tho
armory morns. This pirt of tbe
plan was clofectivo from thero be
ing an utter laok of temporanoe
drinks for gentlemen who domed
no other not evon ice water be
ing available. There wns lemon,
ado iu tho refreshment tent, but
it was strictly guarded against
gentlemen uuacoompamed by ladies.
Thero was a very largo and ro
frosentativo attendance at tho ball,
t would bo difficult to say how
many different nationalities wore
dancing together on tbe cosmopo
litan tlnor. Hon. Robert Hoare,
H. B. M.'s Consul, held an in
formal reception at tbe head of
tbo hall. He was accompanied by
Miss Hoare. Among tboso pre

Tho adjourned meeting of tho

Bidor tbe matter of H-iWiiii's rep
reaentntioii nt tbo Grenter Ainer

at 11 a m. today. Tuoro were
present:
Josoph B. Athorton, president,

Irwin, Consul Haywood and B.F.
Dillingham. Col. Albert Wbyte
and W. W. Umsted wero visitors.
Tho president announced the
business as being consideration of
tbo accepted report of the commit
tee from last moeting. Commis
sioner Unaided representing the
Exposition intended lotviug in to
morrow's steamer and it was de
sirable that bo should be ndvisod,
before loaviug, of tbe intentions of
the Chamber. Tbe question might
be an important one in viow of ro
ports of tho probability of l Bpeci
h! hostiou of OnngreeB to meot in
October. Wbilo ho did uot take
much stock iu what hnd been stat
ed iu an iuirrview givou by L. T.
Grant of Hilo regnrding tbo nn
timent lint uentlemau found pre
vailing in YHBhiuuinn,still he bad
no d mbt somo effort would be
made to place these islnnda on a
restricted basis. In the event of
such movement succoeding, the
islands would loso more in one
year than many timoi tho expense
proposed for an oxhibtt at Omaha.
Mr Walker expressod a doubt if
a coffoe stand and the quiutet
club would bo ot ureat valuo in
promoting an understanding of
Hawaiian resources.
Mr. Waity thought this country
would in tho near future bo
weigueu in tun balauco as never
beforo. To bring tbo quoition to
a hoid he made i motion that, ns
finally passed, was tbat tho report
be adopted and its recommenda
tions carried out provided tbo ue
cesBary funds could bo obtained
from the public. This was second
ed by Mr. Hackfeld,
Mr. Walker moved, seconded by
0. M. Gook- an amendment tbat
tho itom of $2500 for the quintet
club be eliminated.
Mr. Maofarlauo said membors
might not bo awnro of tho im
portauoe of tho quintet club, and
quoted Mr. Thurston as Bayinu
the nativo musicians attracted
visitors to tho exhibit at Chicago.
So far as tbo band was concerned,
the speaker thought the singing
of tbo native boys was intiuitely
to be preforrcd.
Tbo president doomed it a qnes.
tion of whether tbo exhibit was
intouded for money making mat
ter or for placing the industrial
and educational, conditions of tbe
group boToro tho pooplo of tho
United States.
Mr. Dillingham spoke of the
pleasure often givon to tourists by
the performances of tho quintet
club at private looeptiona horo
While the expense would bo con
siderable he would be willing to
bear a part of it. Mr. Dillingham
namod a good rouod aura ho was
riady to subscribe to tbe fund.
Messrs. Shingle, UniHted and
Cooke joined in tho discussion
Mr. Cooke consideredtbo musical
proposal as liablo to involve lack
of dignity.
Mr. Gear thought it desirable
not only to give information to
pooplo already taking an intorenl
in tbo islands, but by meaus like
tbBt in question to attract other
to inquiro into matters relating lo
Hawaii.
Tbo fast pehnoner Mokulelo,
fotinorly lite Bering Sea of Tnco
m h, is a complete wreck nt Wal
niha, Uaimloi, on tbe Island ot
Knuni. Tint uew was brought
by tbe Mikihala that arrived this
forenoon from Mnlciweli aud
other Knuni ports.
Tbe meRBHge telling of tbo loss
of the Mokulelo whs fent over tho
telephone bv Mr. Deverill from.
Uanalei to Miikitweh. Tho Mo
kulelo wejit ashore Tuo3day night
during very atoriny wealbor. Slir
had been awny from Honolulu
Homethiug over a week and had
taken on freight nt odd times. As
she lay at anchor nt tbe timo
mentinnod, eho drifted inshore,
notwithstanding tho efforts of tbo
enptnin and crew. Tho wind and
the sea were dead against tbo vos
sel nnd tho men wore ut Inst
forced to abandon her in order to
save thomtolves.
Tho weather was extremely
ronub and in n vory short timo tho
Mokulelo was in pieces. Tbo
captain, Joseph Irving, is now ut
Uannlei and will return to Hono
lulu to roport ns Boon ni ho can
get a steamer.
Tbe schoonor Moknlele wis
owned by T. J. King of the Cnlt
fomia Feed Company. She wag
brought down from Tacoraa by O.
E. Stevou about a year ago for
tlio express purpiso of trading
among tbo Islands. J. W. Loo
Jr., intnudod making a trip to tho
South Sen I-lauds. Howivt-r, ho
ha'koJ out and his forfeit boiug
paid, T. J King took bur over and
put her on lhn run between porta
ou tho lolsnd of Hawaii and Ho
nolulu. She mado a plnco for
herself on account of her speed
aud was looked upon as the Quoen
of tbe fleet of Inter - Island
soboonors.
It was ouly recently that Mr.
King decided to put the Mokulelo
on.tho Kauai run, this after seve
ral wo ks of idleness. Her last
was ouly tho second trip to Uana
lei; Captain Irving took her nui
both times, Captain Gorgo Town
seud having resigned command to
accept a position ou Molokai.
Ibu Moknlele was insured In
tho Allitnco Marino & General

was just one thousand dollars
