EYES TURNED
TOWARD HAWAII
Railroad Officials Inform Mr..
Wood About Many
Inquiries.

Enquiry regarding Honolulu and the
Hawaiian Islands is very heavy at the
present time and we would like to be
stocked with printed matter"
The above is sample of the infer
nation which is reaching the Hawaii
Promotion Committee. particularly from
railroad agents. This statement came
in a letter from S. Larimer, general
agent of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa
Fe railway, at Des Moines, Ia. The
middle States have been worked hard
by Secretary Wood, and large number
of visitors here come from that section
of the country every winter.
j. S. Carter. general agent of the
Canadian Pacific at Spokane, writes
that his Hawaiian advertising matter
has given out and he is in need of more,
for he is receiving many inquiries from
people who are forming plans to go
away for the winter, and he believes
that with Hawaiian literature on hand
he can divert travel here.
General Agent Kerrell of the Pacific
Mail at San Francisco is also receiving
many requests for information concern
ing steamer sailings to Honolulu.
Miss Lena Haas of Alhambra, Cali
fornia, who recently returned home
from a delightful visit in Honolulu,
writes to Secretary Wood: 81 have re-
turned home and wish to tell you that
I found Honolulu all that Mrs. Frances
King Headlee painted it. There is no
place so rich in color, so marvellous
in growth, so picturesque in form, so
bountiful in yield and SO hospitable and
sincere in people as your emerald isles
in their setting of opal seas and won
derful skies. IF I could I would send
the whole world to you"

BEAUMONT PREPARES
FOR BIG EXCURSION
ANNIVERSARY OUTING WILL BE
WELL ATTENDED
Picnic Under Giant Oak Trees of
Edgar Canyon Is to Celebrate
Second Years Growth
and Prosperity

Elaborate preparations are being
made by the Beaumont Land and
Water company for its homeseekers'
day at Beaumont next Monday in COM
memoration of the second anniversary
of the company. Cheap rates have
been provided and train will probably
be chartered to take visitors from Los
Angeles and nearby points to the pretty
little foothill city of Riverside county.
A movement is now being furthered
to accommodate 1875 passengers or more
on a special train to leave at o'clock
Monday morning, reaching Beaumont
at 10 o'clock, in time for the celebration.
Applications for tickets are being re-
ceived at the office of the company,
SIG Broadway. 1t was announced there
yesterday that all those wishing to take
the special train should not delay in
sending in their applications, as the
order for the train must be filed Fri
day night
Passengers not taking the special
train should, it is advised, take the
Southern Pacific train at $3.50 o'clock
Sunday night, and this will enable
them to see the entire celebration and
permit them to return at a seasonable
hour Monday.
In the two years this company has
had control of Beaumont the town has
increased from $50 to a population of
1900 and over 100000 worth of property
has been sold.
The celebration will take place in a
grove of giant oak trees in Edgar can
yon and will be attended by colonists
and others. Music and refreshments
will be provided and speeches of well
come delivered by officers of the COM
pany. One of the objects of the trip
is to afford a pleasant outing to the
many who are interested in but who
have never taken the trip to Beaumont.
