AT THE GATEWAY OF THE NATIONAL PARK

Santa Fe, The city of the Holy Faith of
st. Francis. is situated on the site of an
ancient Indian Pueblo called O-ga p-ho-ge.
1t is probably the oldest civilized COM
lnunity in the United States and the most
ancient of American capitals. The Spanish
town was founded in 1905. Authorities
disagree as to whether this city or San Au-
gustin, Fla, were first foun led. Santa
Fe was first visited by American traders
in 1904, and from that time dated a
wonderful era of prosperity. The thrill
ing incidents of the old Santa Fe trail,
starting from Westport, Mo-, gave it a
world wide fame.
THE WORLDS ONLY sANlTAE1UA.
Prof. Mark Harrington, chief of the Q.
5. weather bureau, says: "Sants Fe ia in
the driest habitable part of the United
States. This region is extensive, and
changes in form from season to season,
but Santa Fe is always in it,"
1t is situated in charming nook of the
Santa Fe range, and its climate is domi-
mated by the influence of mountain peaks
that tower nearly $4,000 feet high. To
gether with this it lies at an altitude of
7,015 feet, and latitude, about the Seth
degree north, that gives it peculiar ad.
vantage as q sanitarium. The elevation
tempers the summer heats, which natural
~ should be about that of Memphis
Tenn, or Bakersfield, Cal, and its south
srn situation reduces the rigors of winter
As an illustration, during the winter OF
1892, the daily public concerts in the
plaza were only stopped three times by
weather, and last winter the omissions die
not exceed half dozen.
The altitude compels the lungs to work
and no one in Santa Fe can be accused o.
being "too lazy to BREATHE" as great
physician expressed IL. The rare, ozon
ated air permeates every cell Of the lungs
and thus prevents hemorrhage. Drs
Symington aud Harroun, who have prac
ticed in Santa Te for over twenty years
report that they have only found two
'ases among the native people of con
sumption.
NORMAL TEMPERATURE.
The T.. 8. weather observation office
has been stationed here for twenty years
and the following statistical data tell;
better than words how even and mild is
the climate of Santa Fe. Taking the

A short time before the State OF Wash

ingham bay yesterday afternoon two
iaborers, with old-fashioncd hand bags,
went on board. They were seen in CONVEX
sation with third man of a more genteel
appearance, but IL was doubtful If they
were travelling together. Inspector Stem
ger received q tip from some unknown
source in Whatcom tina. there was opium
in the satchels carried by the iaborers. so he
boarded the steamer aud kept the satchels
and owners under surveillance. Every
thing went along quietly, and the third
man would talk TO the iaborers once in a
while. They answered in such broken
English that . skillful interpreter would

When the steamer landed at Seattle it

and asked them what they had in tho
bags. Each man shook his head and
said: Me no understand" The re-.
plies were so much like the proverbial
answers of Cinnamon who do not want
TO understand that the inspector felt
sure his suspicious had not been
anfounded. He took the hand bags, which
were evidently loaded with something
very heavy, IRON the laborers. and then
calling on a friend tor assistance went
back into the cabin with the plumber and
its owners. The bags were opened aud in
them were found seventy-seven pounds of
opium. some of it done up in the original
packages and the remainder in separate
five-tsel cans. Around the opium was
tucked clothing of the kind worn by labor.

beds and were not disturbed until the boat
again left for Whatcom.
