HAWAIIAN ENTERTAINMENT. Honolulu at von; dock. To-day Hawaiian music is heard in dance hall, drauine; mom, ami e;ih;imt tin' wide world over, and ,jnst hocauso its nnisi" and its solids are :i natural gift. its melodies, mostly folk-songs are actual echoes of the heart heats of the multitude, and in them are preserved feelings* and hliels and habits of a Juinautie and imaginative people. Another thing the llawaiians have taught us is that jazz is not necessarily a conglomeration of bizarre noises. As played hv the Hawaiians jazz music becomes insinuating and llexible, and the dnnnmer is heard in harmony but never obtrusive.
