NATURES WONDERS.

Sights for tho Tourists and Recreation
for Pleasure Seekers.
Lewis and Clarke in 1904 gave the first
accurate account the world ever had of the
falls of the Upper Missouri, which have lost
none of the grandeur and impressiveness of
first sight which at Great Falls are 1000
miles from the gulf, and who can but say
after seeing and realizing the gifts and
works Of nature at this point that Great
Falls is indeed wonderful. The beautiful
Sun river, 200 miles in length, rising in
the Rocky mountains, pours it's
liquid stream into the Missouri
on the west side of the city. On the east
and the south the fat gradually rises to the
limits no less thar five ranges of mountains
can be seen at the same time, viz: the
Highwood, Little Belt, Big Belt, Missouri
and Rocky mountains, forming with the
vistas between landscape of rare beauty.
Nor does this comprise all the natural seen
cry at this place, for at this point commence
the only falls to be found along the vast
length of four thousand miles of the Mis-
souri, river. Within ten miles of this point
the Missouri has fall of over five hundred
feet, comprising within this distance the
following beautiful falls: Black Eagle,
which is within the limits of the city, and
is, including rapids, above 81 feet high.
One and half miles below is found

acknowledged by all eastern tourists who
have seen it to be of its kind the most
unique in the whole United States. This
underground river, as it might be called,
las its outlet few rods south of the river
bank and probably thirty feet above the
water level. Its almost fathomless abysses
person can peer down and admire the
variegated colors of the water plants, with
which the rocks along the borders of the
chasm are clothed. The immensity of the
spring may be estimated when it is stated
that the Missouri river from this point down
contains at least one third more water than
it does above this point. The magnificent

Papar for Pfllowa

All England is crazy on the subject Of
paper pillows. Tear the paper into very
small pieces not bigger than the finger nail,
ane then put them into pillow sack of
drilling or light ticking. They are very
cool for hot climates and much SUI
perior to feather pillows. The news
papers are printing appeals for them for
hospitals. Newspaper is not nice for use, as
ink; but brown and white paper and old
envelopes are the best. As they are torn
stuff them into an old pillow case until
a sufficient quantity is had. The easiest
way is to tear or cut the paper in strips
about half an inch wide and then tear OF
cut across. The finer it il. the lighter il

appearance Of this giant spring must be
seen to be appreciated. About one mile be-
low are the Golfer falls, twelve feet high,
placed naturally for an advantageous use
below are the great Rainbow falls, forty
eight feet perpendicular. tho most beauti-
full fall in the west. In autumn, when the
stream is low, the water rolls over a
rocky ledge, striking diagonally across the
river for distance Of nearly two Thousand
the finest lace tracery, and forming. at the
foot OF the falls, very romantic scene. In
spring and summer, however, great vol
ume Of rushing, seethiug water rolls over
the ledge. in one almost unbroken sheet,
with dull, heavy roar which is heard for
roll down the river. About noon, when the
sun is shining brightly, beautiful rain
bow will be seen circling over the river, en-
livening the landscape with its many col
ored hues. About q quarter Of a mile
below are the Crooked falls, twenty five
feet in height, situated In gorge bounded
by perpendicular cliffs of sandstone of vari-
egated hues. For the next five miles the
river flows through canyon, with here
and there some small fiat covered with lux
uriant underbrush, and then 10 reached the
last and the greatest, the
GREAT FALLS OF THE MIssouRI
river, ninety-eight feet in height, stupen-
dous specimen of natures handiwork. The
height of the falls, together with the sub
lime, lofty, perpendicular cliffs through
which the river PUSHES, impresses visitor
with it's immensely, while the loud, heavy
roar OF the water, when the wind 10 favor
able. can bo heard a distance Of twelve
miles. A description Of these falls in detail
would take more space than this article will
allow. That visitors may have q close and
favorable view of each Of the falls men,
toned, the Townsite company, with their
accustomed enterprise, have constructed
steps and stairs to enable visitors to reach
the foot Of the cliffs, and a. near the falls
as practicable. The use of these con-
veniences is free to all. The country

to the south and east, ID gently rolling
prairie, but q ride of an hour and half ON
the railroads will take a person from the
busting hum of a growing western city to
the forest-clad mountains and valleys of
the Belt range; or to the stupendous scenery
of the gate Of the mountains and Prickly
Pear canyon, where the towering peaks,
tremendous perpendicular cliffs, narrow
gorges and forest-clad mountains present
such romantic, sublime, ever changing
scenery as is not to be found elsewhere in
the northwest. The above brief description
partly gives an idea of what can be seen in
this vicinity. An unlimited field Of unex-
plored mountainous country is to be found
to the east, south and west within two days
travel.

GREAT FALLS REAL ESTATE.
Tho Most Profitable Investment In Mon

Tho MOST Profitable Investment In Mon.
tana, and Why.
With the probable exception of Helena.
no city in Montana has had so MANY real
estate sales as Great Falls. and the well-or-
ganized board of trade of that place ia con-
stantly in receipt of letters of inquiry from
eastern capitalists. From what has been
said in this brief description of the CITY. IL
can be readily seen that few places on the
continent give assurance of bigger returns
on an investment made now. The Great
Falls Power and Townsite COM
Rany, which includes many Of
the leading people of Mon
tana, have most of the desirable property
of Great Falls, and their sales for the past
six months have been immense. Great
Falls is a live town and will always be 80.
1t is made up of live and energetic class
of people, who are backed with matchless
resources, and who are rapidly building up
the new Chicago The best time to invest
in Great Falls realty is now, and not six
months from now. For reliable and more
particular information regarding Great
Falls address the Great Falls Townsite
company or any of the real estate firms
whose advertisements can be found in this
issue.

GREAT ENTERPRISES,
The Mammoth Dam, Gigantic Smelters
and FIGURING MIL

The Mammoth Dam, Gigantic SHELTERS
and FIGURING MIL
The biggest enterprise now going on
at Cheat Falls is of course the
dam, which Is to utilize the immense
water power, afforded by the Missouri rive,
at Black Eagle falls, which, when com.
pleted, will furnish 100000 horse power
Only small portion of this will be used by
the immense copper reduction plant that is
also in course of construction and the dam
will cost nothing less than 800, 1000.
The dam and headgates will be approx
mately !, 100 feet long, and will require the
placing of l,SOO 900 feet of timber, &C, OOC
feet of plank, "a tons of iron work and
bolts, $500 cubic yards of stone filing in
cribs, 3, 400 wards of gate chamber masonry,
II sets of head gates and two sets of waste
gates. There will be gate chamber con-
tanning three pairs of head gates on each
side Of the river and waste sluice between
chambers. These will be of cemented ma
sonry. The overfall section of the dam
will be timber cribbed structure filed
with stone. The excavations for the gate
chambers and wing walls will be made down
to solid rock that has not been disturbed by
frost action. The crest of the dam will be
covered with boiler plate one-guarter of an
inch in thickness and four feet in width.
The entire works are to be progressed SO
that one third of the dam and the westerly
set of gate chambers and slnice gates may
be brought into use on or before July /,
1880, passing 800 cubic feet of water per
second into the penstock of the Boston g.
Montana smelling company.
The entire masonry is to be completed by
Oct. 20 and the entire carpentry, gates and
remaining works are to be completed and
delivered on or before Nov. 20, 1880. This
dam controls only portion of the power
which is obtainable, as Black Eagle falls
are only the first OF, the series of falls
the contour of the country on each side of
the river is very favorable for the building
of manufacturing establishments.
The facilities offered. the admirable site
