Madame PATHS farewell to American
audiences was made final by the def
icits in the box office. Had the tour
been successful she might have kept
on bidding her iold public farewell In
definitely but the losses incurred by
her manager which includes $4,000
guarantee for herself, have stopped all
chance Of that When Patti leaves the
lyric stage this time she will leave it
for good and all.
One of the most melancholy of hui
man exhibitions is the aged singer
answering where she once sang and be-
slowing a weakened smirk upon audi
tors whose fathers and grandfathers
summed themselves in her smiles. At
the same time 1t is a most common
one. Albani sang until the critics call
ed her Allbony; Jennie Lind Goldsmith,
Minnie Hauk. Clara Louise kellogg, and
among men vocalists Brignor sang on
and on until their voices became crack

SIPS.

Why not? For $50 one can go from
Chicago to Boston, thence to Jamaica
and return via New Orleans. For 500
a Chicago man can go to Europe and
back. AT s125 our transportation lines
could make good money.

never sure of anything; yet every
mothers son of US knows that If thirty
representative exporters and importers
of Hawaii got together and demanded
fair excursion rates from the mainland,
as the price of their business, they
would get them. Then our tourist prob
lem would be so well and quickly settled
that the Promotion Committee would
need do no more than to keep the low
rate advertisement running and the
local information bureau open.

THE ONE WAY OUT.

Amid all the talk about help from
railroads and steamship lines in carry
ing out our tourist plans, there is not
a word said about lower rates. And yet
a rate such as IS given to competing
points is essential to the success of the
crusade. Some few people will come
to Hawaii without them; but these.
judging from recent experience, will
cost Hawaii in advertising and salaries
about as much as they come to in re-
turn outlay To be successful the To-
cal propaganda must lay down a hum
bred tourists where it now does ten;
and that it can do so with cheap rail
and ocean fares admits of no doubt
whatever. There are multitudes who
want to come here. but so long as they
can go to the West Indies. to Florida,
the city of Mexico, California and even
to Europe for less money, they viii
yield us only straggIers.
Transportation facilities are getting
better fast. so that steamship COM
panfes win not be able to say that they
have all the business they can do at
top-notch prices. The Manchuria and
Mongolia are coming. The Globe
Steamship line is considering the wis
dom of calling here with 5000 ton
steamers. When business crowds, the
Oceanic lire would naturally run two
ferry boats between here and San
Francisco instead of one. More steam-
ers are seeking trade in this sea all |
the time. There are plenty of steam |
ship owners who would be glad to con-
slider low passenger rates in return for !.
a guarantee of trade. Is it not. time |
to do something with them?
The Promotion Committee is doing
good advertising. People are attracted
by it so that they write hundreds if not
thousands of letters of inquiry-and
then come here in blocks of five. But
there is one advertisement, simple in
form, requiring no literary skill and no
which would bring as
many people here as the hotels and
boarding houses could accommodate.
It is this:

BERTHA PARKER HALL.
Daughter of the Democratic Candi-
date For President.

The domestic life of the Democratic
candidate for president, Judge Alton
B. Parker, has appealed strongly to
the interest of the public in the few
weeks since the nomination was made
The life Of the Parker family at Rose
mount is typical Of American home
life at its best. 1t is a happy family.
The venerable mother of the Demo-
cratic candidate, Mrs. Harriet STRAIT
ton Parker, is living and is a frequent
visitor at Esopus. The wife of the
judge is a we'll preserved woman Of
middle age whose kindness and grace
have made her the center of an admir-
ing circle. The daughter, Bertha Par
ker Hall, her husband and two chill
dren complete the family group. The
two grandchildren of Judge Parker are
the joy of the household. Mrs. Halls
husband, the Rev. Charles Mercer Hall,
is an Episcopal clergyman and rector
of the mission church of the Holy
Cross at Kingston. This is where
the judge attends divine worship and
he holds the position of vestryman.
His son-in-law is a Republican. Dur
ing the summer months the Hall fami-
~ is much at Esopus. Usually on
Sunday mornings the entire family
goes from Rosemount to Kingston to
church, making the trip on the pic
turesque Hudson in a little launch.
Mrs. Hall resembles her father, but is
more vivacious in manner. She is an
accomplished musician and used to
play the organ in the church at Kings
ton. She is tall and 1.-THE, with an
abundance of gold red hair-a little less
red and a little more gold than the
judges and that Of her son, Alton
Parker Hall, a lively and precocious

There was a striking scene at the st.
Louis convention when Judge Parker
was nominated. Mrs. Hall attended all
the sessions of the convention, and on
the night when the nominating speeches
were made waited until as dawn was
breaking the nomination of her father
took place. Many crowded forward to
congratulate her, but she turned to her
husband, Father. Hall. Charles"
she said, "a pencil and paper, please.

her and she wrote:
