"TnE USDEvfLorED WEST or FIVE
YEARS IN THE TERRITORIES ."-Being a
Complete History OF that vast region
between the Mississippi and the Paci-
fc its Resources, Climate, Inhabitants,
Natural Curiosities, ETC.. with Life and
Adventure on Prairies, Mountains, and
the Pacific Coast. BY j. II. Beadle.
Western Correspondent of the Cincin.
natl Commercial. and Author Of life
in Utah." etc.
The National Publishing Co., Of Phila.
delphia, has just issued one Of the most
remarkable, and attractive books Of the
century. 1t is well known to every one
that far beyond the Mississippi, and
stretching over half the continent, is a
vast region which we vaguely term The
Great West"-a region Astounding in the
most wonderful natural formations, rick
10 precious mineral deposits, and Offering
the greatest attractions to the settler and
the tourist. Though so often spoken Of,
it is almost an unknown land"
Mr.. Beadle went into this region for
the avowed purpose of seeing and dcscrib-
ing it, and his journeyings aud observa-
tions were all governed by a fixed pur-
pose, that of discovering and making
known the actual character. condition and
resources Of the country visited by him.
He first traversed the States Of Iowa'Min'
nesota, Nebraska and Kansas, examining
the lands. and living aud conversiDg with
the people of those sections. For five
years he kept moving from point to point,
exploring the Territories, and the great
and rich States of the Pacific Coast, en-
countering strange people and inuumera-
BILE hardships and Drawing many dangers
in bis wanderings among the savages. He
visited the rich mines of Colorado, Utah,
Nevada and Idaho; passed into Caliior-
MIA and Oregon, and Their, enjoyed pecu-
liar advantages for seeing and investigat-
ing the resources and curiositics of those
remarkable States. lie spent considera.
BILE time 10 New Mexico. Arizona and
Texas, and his account OF his observations
and discoveries in those strange and deep.
ly interesting portions OF our country will
commend his book to the careful coDsid-
Grafton of the scholar, as well as to all
who seek practical information or amuse-
ment. His only companions in his trav-
els in Arizona we're Indian guides, and
for weeks during his explorations in that
Territory, he never saw the face Of a
white man.
To prospective emigrants and settlers
in the Far West" this history Of that
vast region will prove an invaluable as
sistance, supplying as it does, a want long
felt of a full, authentic and reliable guide
to climate, soil, products, distances, local.
tiles, means of travel, etc. 1t may be
relied upon, for it contains no secondhand
information.
1t is comprised in one large octave
volume of 1913 pages, and illustrated with
240 fine engravings Of the scenery, lands
mines, people and curiositics Of the Gfea'
West.
The low price at which the work is is
sued brings it within the reach Of all, aDd
the great popular interest in the subject
and established reputation Of the author
combine to make it the best and most
popular book Of the day. 1t is sold by
subscription only, and agents are wanted
in every county.
