The Hot Springs of South Dakota.

The following letter from Mr.. w. M. Tyson,
Commander of the Pennsylvania Soldier and
Sailors Home, at Erie, Pa, written on his re-
turn home, after stay of some weeks at Hot
Sprin gs, South Dakota, indicates that the
Springs are in a fair way to become one Of the
leading health resorts of the country:
ERIE, Pa, Feb. %, 1895.
Col. FRED EVANS, Prop,
Evans Hotel" Hot Springs, s. d.
EEAR SIR; Among the many who have been
benefited by treatment at the Hot Springs
s. D.. and have experienced courteous hospital
ity at your hands, claim the right to say
word In behalf of the Springs as health resort,
and cannot do better than to state the facts In
my own case.
l left Erie, Pa, about November 1, 1894, my
friends at the time doubling whether would
ever recover my health 1 arrived at Hot
Springs so weak and disheartened that re-
quired aid to leave the cars ana reach the ho-
tel. For the first two weeks / felt no improve
ment. Then I experienced a change, which
continued until my departure. and returned to
my home very much stronger and free from
pain.
do not hesitate to say to anyone seeking re-
lief from pain, aud desiring rest. that do not
believe there is any place where an invalid can
go and find SO many advantages, such as heal
ing waters, pure air, grand mountain scenery
and comfortable hotel accommodations, as Hot
Springs. s. d. The elegant Evans Hotel is
equipped with every provision for comfort, and
all that goes to make one feel at home. am
so thoroughlyconvinced of the many advantages
to be found at your location, that 1t is pleasure
for me to recomend the Hot Springs to invalids,
and to those seeking amusement as we'll as
health.
Wishing you every success, and that Hot
Springs may become better known and appre-
ciated, am Truly yours,
[Signedl W. M. TYSON.

South are now in our Divinity schools,
and more are eager to prepare for the

Y. Recommendation. Inasmuch as
we have a good ministerial force now
working in the South and also on the
Pacific Coast, 1 suggest that five District
Conferences instead of three be held
next October, one in Atlanta, Ga, or
Hartman. Tenn, and one in Oakland,

that such gatherings will further our
cause in these important sections.
