What is Bryan's Charm
From the Congreationalist.

FloIH ii COnSlcdtlOudilSb
In the meantime it may be well to
Inquire into the causes for the reasons
for this remarkable, in fact, almost I'M
eXampied ascendency Of Mr.. Bryan's
influence among the voters of his own
party. 1t began with an effective bit
of oratory and it has been maintained
in part, every since by public addresses
which have never lost their power of
moving and deIighting the great crowds
that come to hear him.
Mr.. Bryan is a professional lecturer,
and has in his own person revived the
glories of the lyceum platform, which
played so large a part in the education
of America. There are few towns in
America whether in the open, or where
entrance requires a fee. He is an editor
and though his paper has no extraor-
binary circulation, it is a watched voice.
Bryan's approach to the people. They
would have little influence did not only
that he is a good man, but also that he
is their sincere friend and desires to be
their helper.
He has appealed more and more to
the plain people as good christian
and Christian work in
all lands a man of upright life and
simple manners. lie pays the people
the compliment they like next best to
that Of recognized superiority-that of
being one themselves. He attacks that
which they suspect and dislike. He be-
lievesth that he would be able to do much
to make life easier for every one. His
convictions are positive and radical,
With this charm of address, this per-
sonal character above suspicion, this
assurance of conviction along popular
lines of thought this promise of results
to be achieved, we have the outward
marks of a power which must at last be
traced into the hidden places of per-
SOnality. The moment seems to be in
his hands.

want liquor in the counties, towns or
cities. These are Pennsylvania and

politan, and in its halls will be found
the experienced travellers from every
eountry of the world.
The ball room of the Fairmont Hotel
is one of the most beautiful, as well as
one of the largest, in existence. It has
one of the few spring floors to be found
in the country, making dancing pecu-
liarly delightful 1t is decorated in
white and gold, with hangings of blue
satin tapestry. Its walls are covered
with mirrors, between which are decora-
tions by the most famous mural artists
of the world. And the ballroom is not
merely an ornament. San Franciscans
are very sociable people, and the rec.
ords of the ballroom show that it is
occupied an average of three times a
week during the social season. Behind
it is the famous red banquet room,
which has, perhaps, held more distin-
guished company than any other room
of its kind west of Chicago. On the
floor below is the magnificent Norman
Cafe banquet room, a hall of superb
proportions and simple grandeur. 1t is
the best illustration of hall of the
Norman period. Even-#he tesselated
floor is made of special design, a char
acteristic of the Norman times. From
the lofty ceiling hang chandeliers of
quaint design, made of wrought
iron in Paris especially for this room.
The long French windows, which cover
the entire north side of the Norman
Cafe, open on the terrace, broau,
tagged promenade, which overlooks the
Bay of San Francisco and the city.
Upon special occasions of large enter
the terrace is canvassed in,
making another hall, almost as large as
the Norman Cafe itself. On warm days
AAterrace presents an animated scene,
one largely of Paris or the
in London. Here parties
Of convivial spirits gather around the
tables where lunch is served in the open
air, overlooking the most beautiful
of mountain and sea.
Another thing for which the Fair
mont Hotel is noted is the number and
variety of its different dining places.
In them one may find place to dine

Court, which is Immediately behind the
obby, offers a convenient grill for
aides and gentlemen. Further on is

LOCAL GAS COMPANY
INCREASES ITS STOCK

A special meeting of the Honolulu
Gas Company, Limited, was called and
held on Thursday, the 18th inst. The
object of the meeting was consideration
of the affairs of the company, with a
proposed increase of the capital stock.
The report of the manager shows a
most satisfactory and encouraging state
of affairs. The present manufacturing
plant is capable of producing 100000
feet per day. 1t was decided to double
this plant, and it is hoped that by the
first of January a manufacturing plant
capable of producing 100000 feet per
day will be installed.
This required new funds, and it was
decided to increase the capital stock
to $250,000 by the issue of 500 shares
of new stock, the par value being 800.
This will be offered to the present
shareholders in proportion to their pres
ent holdings, as the bylaws require.
Consumers of gas may be interested
to know that they are getting their
lights or fuel at a considerably lower
rate than exists on almost the entire
Pacific coast. A few cities furnish gas
somewhat lower, such as San Francisco,
Los Angeles, Portland and Seattle, al.
though Honolulu gas is furnished about
as low as by any of the three last
named.
The company has an outstanding is
sue of $25O,0O0 bonds, which draw six
per cent, and 100000 of stock, all of
which is paid up excepting a final 1919
per cent. due on the 100000 of pre-
ferred stock.
Neither stock nor bonds have been |
placed upon the market, here or in
San Francisco, for the reason that the
of the company determined |
hat there should be no sacrifice in !
ralue by selling either bonds or stock
It a discount.

room is done in white and gold with
silken tapestries. From its windows,
as one dimes, he may look out over the
bay and the shipping. Then there is
the beautiful grey breakfast room,
which is particularly well adapted for
private dinners, luncheons and BAN
quets. In other parts of the same floor
are found the special tea and card
rooms set aside for the use of guests
who wish to entertain in less formal
way. Then there are private dining
rooms, where organizations may meet
around a friendly board. On floor A
is found the crypt, one of the most
unique cafes in existence. 1t is in the
corner of Mason and Sacramento and
is extremely popular with the business
men of San Francisco. 1t offers a COM
Portable grill and bar for men, where
special attention is paid to the cook
ing of steaks and chops and old coun-
try dishes. The service here is swift
and efficient, and it is immensely pOpu-
lar as luncheon place for business
men.
The Fairmont, as it stands today, is
the epitome of hotel excellence. The
vast experience which the Palace Hotel
Company had in the celebrated Palace
Hotel has been utilized in this house.
To Colonel John c. Kirkpatrick, General
Manager of the Palace Hotel Company,
was given the task of instilling into
brand new house the spirit Of hos
pitality which made the old Palace Ho-
tel celebrated in two hemispheres. How
well he has succeeded in doing this is
evident the moment one enters the
doors of the Fairmont. For the Palace
Hotel spirit of hospitality enfolds one
like a garment, making his visit one
of delight, his leave-taking one of re-
greet, and his memory of the time so
spent one of great pleasure.
The Fairmont Hotel offers to the
traveller all the conveniences and luxu-
ries known 10 the best modern hotel,
together with many exclusive features,
some of which we have spoken of above.
Every room in the entire hotel has a
bath attached For $3.50 one may thus
enjoy a pleasant room, beautifully fur
nished in mahogany, with dainty
white tiled bath; or, for as low as ten
dollars, a suite of rooms. Visitors to
San Francisco may rest assured that &C
the Fairmont Hotel they will find only
Phe best Of accommodations and service.
