Tour to California via Pennsylvania
Railroad.

In Southern California is found the
realization of dream of the ancient.
Here are the Golden Apples of the
Hesperides,' ripening beneath sky
more beautiful than that of Rome,
and in a climate more perfect than
that of Athens. Never in the widest
flights OF his imagination did either
Homer or Hesiod ever conceive Of
garden richer in verdant beauty, more
productive of luscious fruit, or set
amid more picturesque and lovely
surroundings. Here the rose entwines
the orange, and the snow-mantled
peaks of the Slerras reflect the gold
en- glow of the evening twilight.

1t il no longer a disputed fact tina,
American composers are coming rapid
ly to the front, not only men, Dut WON
on as well. Miss Marie Won Hammer
though yet only young woman In hef
twentles, has achieved as great sue
cess with her musical compositions as
many OF her older and more expert
enced contemporaries.
An American girl, she always pre-
served the patriotic spirit, received
her musical instruction In America,
and now aspires to take her place in
the foremost ranks Of conscientious
and painstaking American composers.
1t was only few years ago, after the
completion of thorough musical train
ing and travel In musical centres OF
Europe, that she discovered she pos
sessed the marked talents Of musical
composer, and thenceforth devoted nj
her time to this art. She has com
posed music of the higher class, that OF
the classical schools, as nothing liyh
or sensationally popular has ever come
from her pen, and to-day the musicians
of New York, among whom Is the grea
conductor, Anton Seidl, pronounce he
work as that Of genius whose efforts
will live.
