KONA COFFEE.
A Meeting Held to Discuss the
Advis,bility of Supplying
..es>. Koua Coffee at the
N ,N Worlds Fair.

Saturday afternoon a meeting
was held at the Hawaiian Hotel to
discuss the question of a Kona
coffee cafe at Chicago during the
Fair. There were present Thomas
Rain Walker, Lewis J. Levey, A.
NJ. Mellis, E. Ellsworth Carey, w.
w. Hall, A. T. Herbert, n. S.
Sachs, Prof. w. D. Alexander, NJ.
Rose, and Curtis J. Lyons.
Upon request, T. R. Walker as
sumed the Craftsmanship of the
meeting, and Mr.. Carey acted as
secretary. Mr.. Walker stated
that a preliminary meeting was
held last March to consider the
advisabili,y of establishing a cafe
at Chicago for the sale of Kona
coffee, and that Mr.. Mellis had, in
the meantime, secured some infor-
nation on the subject which would
be presented to those present.
Mr.. Mellis read letter from
Hon. l.. A. Thurston, who could
not be present, stating that he was
in sympathy with the undertaking,
and hoped it would succeed. Mr..
Mellis then gave an outline of what
| he had done. and read some letters
from officials connected with the
| Exposition. He was offered a
space in the grounds for a coffee
booth upon certain conditions.
Mr.. Mellis then made q state
ment as to the amount which would
be required to carry out the under
taking. He also argued that the
establishment of this cafe would do
more to advertise the country than
a system of newspaper advertising,
and it would also attract the atten-
ton of capitalists to the possible
ties in coffee culture. He thought
$4,000 would be required to erect
a pavilion and place it in readiness
for business.
An. informal discussion followed
and it was thought that an esti-
mate of the probable receipts and
expenditures of the proposed cafe
should be prepared, and the secre-
tary and Mr.. Walker were requested
to make such an estimate.
The Fair grounds are seven miles
from the city, and those visiting
the grounds will be obliged to OBJ
tain refreshments within the Fair
and as the number of daily visitors
may equal 100000, it will be seen
that a multitude must be furnished
with refreshments. On this account
it is quite possible that coffee
cafe will prove payi;g invest
mont
