the night passed away and every one be-

DIR. Tucker Of Derby, who has just return
ed from Wyoming, Washington, Oregon,
Utah, Idaho, Montana, Colorado, and the
entire west, trip consuming some five or
six weeks, was in the city yesterday. He
says he saw some pretty valleys and coun-
tries, circumscribed but when one gets
right down TO the facts the Arkansas valley
is hard to equal, let alone beat. He found
places whose climate seemed delightful, and
again others with rich soils, etc, but no
place taken all in all to compare with the
Nile of America.
