HOME MOUNTAINS TO CLIMB.

There are 110 mountains in Colorado whose peaks are 12,OOO feet above the ocean level. Forty of these are higher than 14,000 feet, and more than half of that number are so remote and rugged that no one has yet dared to attempt to climb them. They are as unique as those of Switzerland, and as fearful as the Alps in the warning they offer to the men or women who are so hardy as to defy them by starting upon their ascent. Some of them are massed with snow, others have glaciers over their approaches, and others are merely masses of jagged rocks.
 Not even Coloradoans have sought as yet to surmount them, and the pro- fession of guide" is still open to who- ever may care to enter it. Railroads reach within close enough range to pro- vide hotel facilities, but otherwise the mountain climbing of Colorado is yet awaiting it's pioneers. Did the Cobra doans or the people of other states fully realize the intoxication as well as the ealth-giving powers of noun tain climbing, Rocky Mountain climb ing would be one of the most popular recreations of America
 Only one mountain climbing club is known to- exist in Colorado. There is room for dozen more There should be one in every city. By the evidences such clubs might offer of their thrii- ling experiences and of their un- exampled pastimes, the fame of the Rockies as place of pleasure and adventure might be widely advertised. and Colorado thus be pushed forward to the place it must eventually occupy as the American substitute for Switzer- land.-Denver Times.

IRISH VISIONS.

It was the experience of a Northern farmer. The road was long and lonely that led to the market town, and he had to be up betimes to catch the early market. With his stout thorn stick in his hand he set out in the darkness from his home. He knew his road well, but as he passed on he was aware of company, of hurrying crowds. and they did not seem to lessen but rather increase, till suddenly he found himself entering a village street where village there never had been any. The crowds seemed inviting of his pre- sence, and all pursued their business with the greatest activity. But as he passed along the street his stick was quickly snatched from him, and in a moment the vision was gone, "as the baseless fabric of a dream.'
 He looked on every side, but noth- ing could he see. The darkness only thicllened as the mist hung close upon the desolate wayside. What could it all mean? And as he thought of a strange occurrence he remembered how he had cut a branch the day before from the old thorn tree in spite of an old man S warning that he should not meddle with a fairy thorn. So the little people had claimed and taken back their own again. Such was the story as my father told it to me long ago in the black North And still when I go along the old familiar roads I see here and there growing perhaps in the midst of some cultivated field, old, weatherworn, storm-beaten thorn-trees, and if pea sant is asked. Why is that old useless tree left there?" he will answer, That is a fairy thorn,'' and he thinks the answer nt.-Correspondent Lon don Spectator.

SITUATION IMPROVING.
Surgeon General Wyman Does Not
Expect Further Outbreaks.

WASHINGTON, Sept. Sturgeon Gener-
al Wyman, of the Marine Hospital Service,
reported to-day to the secretary of the
treasury that the yellow fever situation
in the South had very much improved.
The surgeon general said that the authori-
ties had the matter well in hand and he
anticipated no further trouble. In case
of necessity, the Marine Hospital Service
has $476, 900 which could be used to stamp
out the disease.
The statement in the morning papers de-
nying the report from DR.. Wasdin that
there were three new cases in New Or
leans, cause no friction or resentment
here. DR.. Wasdin's telegram under date
of Sept. read as follows: DIR. Oliphant
wires a new case of yellow fever dead in
New Orleans. Three new cases reported. .
There was a misapprehension of the tele-
gram here, it being supposed at first that
DR.. Wasdin meant Dr. Olliphant reported
three new cases in New Orleans. 1t is now
believed that DIR. Wasdin meant himself
to report three new cases, probably the
three at Biloxi.
George w. Helnes this morning tele-
graphed from Waycross, Ga, that the de-
tention camp outfit at that place had been
loaded and shipped by fast freight in ac-
cordance with the surgeon generals in
structions to point twenty miles east of
Ocean Springs, where the camp will be es-
tablished. The telegram reads as follows:
Our special train arrived at Camp De-
tention, near Waynesville, at z p. m, and
with a force of forty men we began ar
ranging and loading without intermission
until the entire OUTFIT was loaded and for
warded to q point twenty miles east OF
Ocean Springs by special train. Every eff
fort is being made for prompt movement
to destination. Will advise you from time
to time" Surgeon General Wyman ex-
poets the outfit to reach Ocean Springs in
twenty-four hours. Stewart Richardson,
who had charge of the camp at Waynes
Vile, will assume direction of the camp as
soon as it arrives
The procedure of the federal authorities
under the law and treasury regulations is
plain. The regulations cover Just such an
emergency The province of the federal
authorities is to prevent the spread of the
contagion to other States. Under the law
the state and municipal authorities are re-
quired to enforce the regulations and the
national authorities are to see that they
are enforced. But if the state fails or re-
fuses the national authority is to be exer-
cised.
This afternoon Surgeon General Wyman
received the following reassuring telegram
in answer to a message asking DR.. Lemon,
president of the Board of Health at Biloxi,
Miss, concerning the report in the morn

that place: 80 reported. | have best rea-

Mr.. Ralston says there were many rumors

The National City was eleven days from
st. MichaePs, Alaska, where she left sixty
five eager gold seekers. 1t is very doubtful
whether any of the passengers who went
up on the National City will get through
this year. The small boat which some of
the passengers had taken up on the deck
of the steamer proved a disappointment.
Her machinery went wrong and she drew
too much water. There is enough provi-
sions in the party. however, TO winter it
out and proceed up the river when spring
opens. The Excelsior left st. Michaels
