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 lost
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 founded. 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.
Tux WORLDS ONLY sANITARrux.
Prof. Mark Harrington, chief of the q.
). weather bureau, says: "Santa Fe is 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 it's 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 sanitarium. The elevation
tempers the summer heats, which natural
ly should be about that of Memphis,
Tenn, or Bakersfield, Cal, and its south
Ben 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 did
not exceed half dozen.
The altitude compels the lungs to work,
and no one in Santa Fe can be accused of
being "too lazy to Breathe" as a great
physician expressed il. The rare, ozon-
ated air permeates every cell of the lungs,
and thus prevents hemorrhage. Drs
Symington and Harroun, who have prac-
ticed in Santa Fe for over twenty years,
report that they have only found two
sases among the native people Of CON
sumption.
NORMAL TEMPERATURE.
The U. s. weather observation Office
has been stationed here for twenty years,
and the following statistical data tells
better than words how even and mild is
The climate of Santa Fe. Taking the
summer heat and the winter cold the fol-
towing tables show most equable and
delightful temperatures:

THE BLIZZARD.

A piercing shrek, maddening swirl,
And the binding storm Is on.
The windswept branches writhe and curl.
The fence and the road are gone.
Not landmark remains on the yawnin0
plains,
And the storm and the night are one.
There are needles of sleet in the icy blast
That pushes against the pane.
There are choking pillows of snow that cast
Their eddying depths amain
And whirl with q cry through the falling
sky
That moves upon the plain.
Against the stack in huddled fear
The unhoused cattle wait.
From out the storm rack, shrill and clear,
A horse neighs for his mate,
While man in the storm with sturdy form
Is battling with his fate.
Alas! oh, storm, for the days that dawn
When thy secrets shall be read.
Alasl for the aching hearts at home,
With their sickening weight of dread.
Alas! for the one who will not come
Till the SHOWS give up their dead.
Youths Companion.

MONTE. N


There is no other locality, even the
bonsted climate of southern France, that
can show such stable and equable
range of heat and cold. The health seek
or need fear no sudden changes. A little
attention to clothing and he can bid colds
and inhammations defiance. In cases of
death from tubercular disease the New
Mexico rate is only 8 in 1000.
This is the lowest known record, and it
must be remembered that the local con-
tingent of consumptives is daily aug
mented by the immigration of those who
seek respite from that dreaded scourge.
The record of deaths at Santa Fe is
much lower than the territorial average.
In New England the consumptive death
rate is 25 out of every 1000 of the ocm-
munity; in Minnesota it is II, and
throughout the southern states six per
1000. This city enjoys the spring eli
mate of northern Illinois and Indiana;
the summer climate of Wisconsin, Michi-
gan and Minnesota, and the winter
temperature of southern Illinois, Indiana
and Tennessee. This, however, is only as
shown by the thermometer. The dry
tonic air of the mountain altitude fills one
with vivacity and health, and 80 strong is
the influence of the ozone and electricity
on the nerves and system that acclimation
is wonderfully rapid. This of itself is a
crease in the chest measure of immi-
grants here of from four to seven inches.
NATURAL ATTRACTIONS.
Besides this Santa Fe lies in most
picturesque valley. 1t is at the entrance
of a splendid canon, Astounding in natural
curiosities. 1t is also the gateway of the
Pecos National park, where fish au1 game
abound. Within easy riding or driving
distances there are over forty places Of pic
turesq ne and OF historic interest. Among
which may be mentioned the old adobe pal
nee, first erected shortly after 1908, from
which the Spanish viceroys ruled this
great province. The present structure
dates from about 1716; but it is full OF
interest, as every room is consecrated by
the memory of thrilling events. In this
building Gen. Lew Wallace wrote his
famous Ben Hur.
The chapel of San Miguel, was built In
1890 and still stands. BY its side is tbs
oldest house IN the United States. Tue
walls of the old cathedral date from 1929
but the rcst of the structure IL of more
modern date. Within Convenient dis.
tances are the Indian pueblos of Tesuq "a
and Nambe; in side canon Of the Santa
Fe are the delightful Aztec springs, while
about nine miles up the main water
course is Monument rock. The road
thither is one of surprising loneliness
To the south of town is Aqua Fria, and
the famous turquoise mines pronounced
by Tiffany the finest in the world; and
beyond the Rio Grande are the San Ilde
fonso Pueblo and the curious clia dwell
liugs.
Other points of interest to the tourists
are: The Historial society's rooms; tn.

Mark Twain's WAY.

The Rev. J. Hyatt Smith, says the Kan
sas City Times, relates the following story:
When was living with my brother in Buff
falo, Mark Twain occupied cottage across
the street. We didn't see very much of
him, but one morning as we were enjoying
our cigars on the veranda after breakfast
we saw Mark come to his door, in his
dressing gown and slippers, and look over
at us. He stood at his door and smoked for
minute as if making up his mind about
something and at last opened his gate and
came lounging across the street. There
was an unoccupied rocking chair on the
veranda and when my brother offered it to
him he dropped into it with sigh of re-
lief. He smoked for few moments and
said:
"Nice morning"
'Nes, very pleasant"
shouldn't wonder if we had rain by and
by"
"Well, we could stand little"
This is nice house you have here"
Eyes, we rather like it."
Flows your family"
"Quite well-and yours9"
"Oh, we're all comfortable"
There was another impressive silence, and
finally Mark Twain crossed his legs, blew a
puff Of smoke into the air and in his lazy
drawl remarked: II suppose you are bit
surprised to see me here so early. Fact is l
haven't been so neighborly perhaps as
ought to be. We must mend that state of
things. But this morning came over be-
cause thought you might be interested in
knowing that your roof is on fire. 1t struck
me that it would be good idea if
But at the mention of fire the whole fam
lily busted up stairs, trailing language all
the way up. When we had put the fire out
