MR.GHASEASHOST
Farewell Dinner By a Citizen
Now Leaving Hawaii.
FOURTEEN AT THE BOARD
Some Notable Guests A Number
of Addresses Made Toasts and
Responses.
Fourteen guests sat at the round
table in the large private supper room
of the Hawaiian hotel on Saturday ev
ening for the farewell dinner given by
Charles D. Chase. It has been men
tioned that Mr. Chase, on account of
the illness of his wife, leaves for the
Coast this week to be away from the
Islands at least a year. Mr. Chase has
disposed pf his business and consider
able of his property here and it is pos
sible that for the reason indicated he
will establish himself in the land of his
birth. For about four years Mr. Chase
has been one of the active business
men and citizens of this place. He
came to .Honolulu an entire stranger.
It may fairly and without flattery be
said that by his own efforts alone he
has attained an enviable position in
the community, gaining the confidence
and esteem of those with who he did
business and winning many genuine
friends. Mr. Chase is a young man yet
and those who know him predict and
wish sincerely for him a thorough suc
cess in life. Were Mr. Chase not so
.well balanced a man there would be
fear of perhaps bad effect from the
compliments showered upon him at the
dinner. Those at the board were:
President Dole, Minister Cooper, De
puty Attorney General E. P. Dole, W.
N. Armstrong, E. R. Adams, John
Phillips, A. V. Gear, W. G. Ashley, Dr.
C. B. Wood, G. A. Davis, J. II. Fisher,
li. t . Diinngnam, t ranK l,. Jtioogs, ma.
Towse.
" The dinner was the best that the
hotel could provide under- the experi
enced direction of the host. The first
course was at 7 p. m. and the last two
hours later. Then came the cigars and
a number of impromptu addresses. The
table decorations included red carna
tions and ferns, with shaded candles.
E. P. Dole, between whom and Mr:
Chase there has grown a strong attach
ment, spoke of the genuine wealth in
real friendship and paid a feeling per
sonal tribute to the host. Mr. Dole
was strongly eloquent and intensely
earnest. Mr. Chase was deeply touch
ed and could respond in only a few
words acknowledging the many kind
nesses extended to him during his life
in the Islands.
The next toast was to the President
of the Republic and was offered by Mr.
Armstrong. The reply was from Min
ister Cooper, who alluded pleasantly to
Mr. Chase and gracefully dwelt upon
the beauty of real regard springing up
between men in the rush of life..
Sisters, Sweethearts and Wives Mr.
Adams. I
The American Army and Navy Dr.
C. B. Wood.
Mr. Phillips in a happy vein touched
upon "State secrets," past and present,
and spoke of the Hawaiian careers of
Mr. Chase and a number of others at
the table. Mr. Phillips had at the be
ginning given the "Bobby Burns Bless
ing" and again later, with Mr. Chase,
paid respects to the unorthodox mis
sionary at the table.
The "unorthodox missionary," Mr.
Armstrong, was fully imbued with the
sentiments of the evening and gave
amongst other revelations, the reason
of the host's failure to get the 33d de
gree in the original missionary lodge.
This was because Mr. Chase, even
wrhen given many lessons by the
speaker, was still unable to sing cor
rectnly "From Greenlands Icy Moun
tains." Mr. Armstrong, commenting
on the difficulty sometimes experienced
by strangers in obtaining a foothold
in a new country, told of the experi
ence of his parents and others as Gos
pel pioneers in the Gilbert Islands.
"Blest be the Tie that Binds" was
suggested as a proper sentiment for a
response by Mr. Dillingham. That
gentleman said he would refrain from
talking railroad. He wished to offer
commendation to Mr. Chase, after
watching the comings and going of
men here for many years. He had
found Mr. Chase a worthy man in ev- !
ery way and believed him to be a true !
one of capacity. j
Mr. Davis, being called upon, had i
the originality to perpetrate a new i
plumber joke. He said that the first I
queer country was when he had heard I
a local plumber referred to as "Honest
John." Mr. Davis spoke in choice sen
tences of friendships and its high
value.
Col. J. H. Fisher, commander of the
First Regiment, answered for the Na-
i tional Guard of Hawaii. His state
i nif-nt that it would le ready to enter
; the services of Uncle Sam if needed,
I was applauded.
Dr. C. B. Wood was neat in apropos
; remarks, telling of the hospitality of
j these shores and toasting "Old Ha
j waii." W. Ci. Ashley gave some amus
! ing anecdotes and there was response
; for "The Press."
! President Dole was the last speaker
j and was graceful and impressive in his
' expressions, offering to Mr. Chase the
warmest aloha on behalf of all. Then
followed the hand shakings.
There was music throughout the
dinner from a quintette club.
More Lectures.
Miss McDonald has been requested
to give a short course of lectures on
literature for teachers and others who
cannot attend the regular Friday
morning course. This class will be or
ganized this afternoon at 3:30 o'clock
at Mrs. Philip Dodge's. All interested
are urged to be present today to hear
the first of two lectures on the poet
Wordsworth.
A YEARS WORK.
Stranger's Friend Society Holds
Its Annual Meeting.
The 4Gth annual business meeting of
teh Stranger's Friend Society was held
Thursday, May 12th. The reports
given of the work of the society and
its progress during the year showec:
unusual and numerous benefits be
stowed.
Looking back over the records of
past years not since the foundation of
this society had there been in a single
year, so large and efficient a work ac
complished.
At the beginning of the year in the
early part of May, the outlook for
continuing the work seemed paved
with discouragements. With a treas
ury so low the hospital bill of $75 must
lie over; new cases applying could not
all receive assistance, and the meager
allowances already bestowed on regu
lar beneficiaries must, it was thought
in some way be retrenched.
Thus the year began, but only
short time had elapsed when kindly
disposed individuals came to the res
cue, and baseball games, minstrel
shows, musical and reading entertain
ment were arranged, and the results
from these, together with generous
private donations, set the machinery to
moving, facilitating all its works.
As shown in the treasurer's account,
receipts during the year have been as
follows: Membership fees $54, quar
terly amounts from the Queen's Hos
pital $416. ' interest on Government
bonds $480, donations $1,846.40.
Disbursements for benefit of bene
ficiaries as follows: Passage moneys
$90, for patients in the Queen's Hos
pital $519, funeral expenses $34, milk
bills $142.90, rents $237.25, to numerous
calls, weekly rations, medicines, etc.,
$523.15. Sum total of expenditures for
the year $2,011.13.
Gratefully the Stranger's Friend So
ciety acknowledges the generosity of
its kind benefactors. For by their gifts
has the society been enabled to do an
extensive work, of rendering aid ana
comfort to the poor, sick and suffering.
Many old soldiers now feel the ef
fects of the hard service they endured
during the war. Mr. Geo. S. Anderson,
of Rossville, York county, Penn., who
saw the hardest kind of service at the
front, is now frequently troubled with
rheumatism. "I had a severe attack
lately," he says, "and procured a bottle
of Chamberlain's Pain Balm. It did
so much good that I would like to
know what you would charge me for
one dozen bottles." Mr. Anderson
wanted it both for his own use and to
supply it to his friends and neighbors,
as every family should have a bottle
of it in their home, not only for rheu
matism, but lame back, spains, swell
ings, cuts, bruises and burns, for
which it is unequaled. For sale by all
Druggests and Dealers. Benson, Smith
