Honolulu as missionary. He was not
a minister, but was sent out by Con-
gregationalist Board to establish a
mission After he accomplished this he
went into mercantile life, accumulat-
ing a fortune. He became Prime Min
lister under King Lunalilo. Mr.. Hall
died in 1888, and in 1890 Mrs. Hall
came TO this city. That year she joined
Sorosis. She has served as correspond
ing secretary for three years. -
Mrs. Hall is prominent member of
the Mount Holyoke Alumnae Associa-
ton, and a short time ago she con-
tributed toward the endowment of a
professorship at the seminary. She is
a member of the Madison Square Pres
byterian Church, of which Dr. Charles
H. Parkhurst is pastor, and is active
in church work, being secretary and
treasurer of the Woman's Foreign Mis-
sionary Society.
Mrs. Helmuth has filled her long
term of Office faithfully and well. The
greater part of her time since she be-
came president has been devoted to
Sorosis and its welfare She is presi-
dent of the Guild of Flower Hospital,
and holds prominent positions in many
like institutions.
1t will be difficult to find-hunt the
United States over-a more popular
clubwoman than the retiring president
of Sorosis.

NEW RESIDENCE LOTS.
Trousseau Farm Subdivided and
Sold on Easy Payments.

When A V. Gear purchased the os-
trich farm at Kapiolani Park some
people thought he paid too much for it.
But Mr.. Gear has a keen foresight, and
knew what he was doing. His idea
was to subulvide the tract into lots
suitable for building purposes and sell
them on a plan that would enable peo-
pie of moderate income to purchase.
Yesterday afternoon he finished a
rough plan of the property and found
he had in the neighborhood of 400 lots,
each 80 feet front, and varying in
depth from 100 to 200 feet, the deepest
being on the town and mauka end of
the land. He gave it out to one or
two friends that he would put the lots
on sale next week. and would charge
$50 for each lot. the payment to be
made weekly at 81 each, the purchaser
to be at no expense for deeds. He said,
also. that he believed water mains
would be laid on the property within
six months and the streets running
through would be of uniform width
of 80 feet As a result of this infor-
nation being communicated TO others,
Mr.. Gear was obliged to remain in his
office until nearly midnight marking
off lots selected by persons who want
ed to get into what they consider a
good thing. In all 80 lots were sold
last night, and it is probable that
twice as many will be sold today. The
land is convenient to Kapiolani Park,
and the lower portion of it fronts on
Campbell avenue, which connects with
Moiliili road.
The land is said TO slope gradually
from mauka to makai, and is of good
quality 1t is quite free from rocks and
lantana. An excellent view of the val
leys around Honolulu is obtainable
