MUCH INTEREST IN
HAWAII ON MAINLAND
NEWSPAPER AND MAGAZINE
EAGERLY USE PHOTOGRAPHS
AND DESCRIPTIVE MATTER.

The amount of attention which the
Floral Parade has attracted on the
mainland is exceedingly fattering to
everybody in any way connected with
the enterprise. Much Of the credit for
this advertisement of Honolulu has
been due to the Promotion Committee
which through its secretary, H. p.
wood. has sent out hundreds of photo
graphs and descriptions of the event.
In the current numbers Of the Auto
mobile Magazine and the Auto Era,
the Floral Parade formed the leading
feature. Bach journal had numerous
fine illustrations from photographs.
The Automobile Magazine illustrations
includes a half cut of H. NJ. Ballou's
car with its decorations and party,
while the Auto Era made handsome
reproduction of H. F. Wichman's par
ty a cover design.
Besides these journals which have
made features of the Foral Parade,
Frank Leslie's, has recently devoted
srace in two numbers to illustrations
of the event, while in a recent issue OF
Golfers four characteristic pictures
formed an unusually handsome page
feature.
In speaking of the matter Secretary
Wood stated that the advertising
which Hawaii is getting on the main
land is much greater than last year
and could be made more were tn,
Promotion Committee in position t,
look after it. After the floral parade
the committee sent out many photo
graphs and descriptions of the even
taken from the local papers, most o
which were used or formed basis 70
extensive notices. OF this one even
over 800 marked copies of papers wer
sent to newspapers in all parts of tn
United States, and from the interes
0NNNNNNNNNNNN%NNNNN%NNNNSG
A number of applications for liquo
licenses, wholesale and retail, wer
taken up. The commission voted t
advertise them for four weeks, a
required by law.

THE ELLEFORDS


Fun. fast and furious, pure, un-
adulterated fun was served by the
Eleeford at the Orpheum last evening
i'm Hello, Bill" The play calculated
to move every sense of humor stored
in an audience and calculations were
lived up to in last nights presentation
of the merry piece. Those who failed
to get rejuvenated and recharged with
jollity will have an opportunity this
evening to get full measure, for Hello
Bill" is to be played again tonight.
The story is that of a jovial bachelor
about to give up single blessedness or
single cussedness, as you like, and he
celebrates the last night of liberty by
getting arrested in gambling house
He fears that he must go to Jail and,
that his bride may discover his
shame, he ard his friends turn out
lfabsehoods to such an extent that
everybody gets mixed and mistaken
Identities produce the most laughable
results.
Hernandez is splendid as the bogus

Cutting who makes things worse by

Boardman is a good round officer
Ferguson as the real general and Ed

FIX THE LIMITS
FOR CITY LICENSES
LIC-NSE COMMISSION DECIDES
TO CUT OUT FORT sTREET-DIs,
CUssION OVER SURETY.

The meeting of the Liquor License
Commission yesterday afternoon was
marked by considerable important ac-'
tion. 1t was decided to establish the
saloon district as follows: Punchbowl,
Beretania street to King. and along
King to Liliha, southwesterly from the
foot of Liliha street to the gas works.
The district in which licenses are to
be issued embroces the Waikiki side
of Punchbowl street and mauka side
of Beretania and King streets. No IL
censes win be issued on Fort street,
and no licenses will be issued in TIo-
nolulu, outside of this district.
1t was furthermore decided that
there must be a strict compliance with
the law, two good suretles or one quail
fed, by unincumbered real estate, in
double the amount of the license.
Lucas stated that the Commission
ought to use common sense in the adj
ministration of the liquor law but it
was unwise to stick at too many tech
nicalities. If they persisted in sticking

the Board was illegal The law pro-
vides that nobody could serve on the
Commission who was directly or indi-
rectly interested in the liquor bust
ness, yet Mr.. Campbell, Mr.. Gilman
and Lucas were members of club
that sold liquor. Lucas thought that
the provision of the law that required
| two sureties on the bond need not be
enforced strictly, for a good surety
company could serve as well as any
private bondsmen.
| Treasurer Campbell raised the poin
that unless the bond were executed a!
the law provided, it might be WORTHLESS!
if occasion rose to sue on it. Camp
bell said that he did not think Their,

monarchy or since, on a liquor dealer

Lucas said there had been one abou
twenty-five years ago when a deale
hod violated the law by selling liCLC
to an Hawaiian.
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1907-05-21

in things generally in all parts Of the
mainland, Mr.. Wood has evidence that
in a majority of the cases the descrip-
tions were much appreciated, and used
literally.
This form of advertising Hawaii is
one of the cheapest, and at the same
time one of the most effective, and
only limited facilities prevents it from
being much more largely so employed.

Prophecy About "Bcn Hur."

Twenty-siX years ago President Gar
field ventured the prediction that Gen.
Lew Wallace's "Ben-Hur" would take
a permanent and high place in litera-
ture." His prophecy, extravagant as
1t then seemed, has already been JUS
titled. 1t Is true that General Wal
lace's novel has won a popular rather
than a critical success: but novel
that can grip the hearts of whole
people becomes, by that very fact, a
literary portent OF the first order.
With the single exception OF Uncle
Toms Cabin" no American book has
equalled "Ben-Hur" in popularity. 1t
has been published in IA editions, ag-
gregating 1 100000 copies. 1t has been
translated into German. French, Swe-
dish, Bohemian, Turkish, Italian,
Spanish, Portuguese and Arabic, and
has been printed in raised characters
for the blind In its dramatic version
1t has been witnessed by tens of thous-
ands of people in all our great cities.

ADELINA PATTI 81 YEARS OLD.
Has Become Public Singer for Nearly
Fifty Years.

Adelina Patti the celebrated oper-
attic singer, whose final retirement
from public performances was recent
ly announced, was born in Madrid,
February 19, lS43, her parents being
Italians. After course of profess
sional training under her brother-in-
law, Maurice Strakosh, the youthful
singer made her debut in New York
November "a 1859. Her first Lon
don appearance was made at the
Italian opera house, Covent Garden,
May IA, 1861, and so favorable was
the impression created that she be-
came at once the leading favorite of
the day. For many years she was
heard in various grand opera roles,
each Of which sustained her high rep
utation.
Nine. Patti has appeared In almost
every civilized country and an idea
of her enormous earnings may be had
from the statement that she received
a total of nearly 100000 for "a con-
certs in which she appeared in the
Argentine Republic in 1883. Baron
Rolf Cederstrom, to whom Nine. Pat
ii was married in 1899. is her third
husband. In 1868 she was married
to the Marques de Caux. from whom
she was afterward divorced. Her Sec
ond husband was Signor Ernesto Nj
colini, who died in 1898.

ADVANCE IN PRICE OF LAND.
Oregon Farms Rise IL Per Cent in

Western land has increased in value

greatest rate in history, says Ranch

only is this true in the well-tested

in realty values reached uncxampled
depths a few years ago.
The economic effect on the middle
west from this "hoom" in land values
is attracting attention from the finan-

decrles the word "boom." He de-
clares that 1t is merely "a healthy
growth" But when the value cf a
farm doubles in "a months and is
readily SOLD m the market at the new
