AsPLENDlD OFFER.

The MINNEAPoLIs TRIBUNE, always at
the front where genuine newspaper enter
prise is concerned, makes Il wonderfully
liberal offer to the teachers OF the North
west, and which is we'll worth their early
and careful consideration. The Offer in
wolves the formation of different words
from the title The Tribune" and includes
FORTY splendid prizes, the value ofsone OF
them amounting to nearly $4,000 they
range from two trip tickets to the Ma
.tionnl Exposition, with q snug sum in
,cash, down through q list OF money and
transportation prizes, any one OF which
mill repay the effort necessary to comply
with the very simple conditions.
The offer is not limited to teachers,
.either although they are given special in
-ducements, but it is within the reach OF
every one who desires to enter the con-
test, and us the details OF the same have
been thoroughly advertised for the past
week or two, no one need be ilignorance
as to what is required. However, we
have no doubt THU TRIBUNE will answer
all inquiries concerning the Offer and as
the contest closes July 20, teachers and
Others anxious to compete cannot begin
early. The amount involved i'll prizes is
@ cool $1,000.
This is all opportunity for some OF our
bright young people to show their enter-
prise. Get to work We may just as
well have some of The TRIBUNE's good
things and want to see some OF our
readers travel at their expense or wear a
gold watch set with diamonds.

ed room where he asked me to
take off. all my clothes and put
on a nice clean flannel suit, that !
he would have sent in, well they |
came, hat, stockings, shoes, shirt
and all a perfect fit, he also
changed clothes and we each
took lantern and started down
in the elevator, our first stop
was at 1850 feet down where we
started to explore one OF the
drifts we followed it to the end
which was about one half mile
distant, when on our way we
met the men and they did not
have on any shirt on account of
the heat in. parts of the mine but
they looked the picture Of health
In that region the interior Of the
earth is very hot, there being
many hot springs that reach the
surface, in fact there was a large
stream of hot water flowing
through the mine. After we had
surveyed those drifts we went to
the shaft and went down to
1900 feet which is as far as we
could go on account ofthe water.
We had not gone far in this drift
before. we came to the exact spot
where Grant and other great
men have had their pictures tax
en-. I did not use my kodak there
as / had no flash light powder.
We did not stay long as most all
can be seen while.walking along.
When we got to the elevator he
told me to look up otltsthe place
we came down, it did not look
large enough to put my head
through but it was about six feet
each way. After coming out of
the mine he showed me a large
bath room where I could take
either a tub or shower bath. !
asked Mr.. Hawks if that was the
way they treated every visitor
and said it was and not only the
visitors but the miners also had
a bath room where hot and cold
water was in abundance and
they would change their clothes
the same as visitors. / had no.
ticed them coming home from the
mine with their shoes shined and
white shirts on and wondered at
it. I cannot spe ak too highly
of the manager Of the mine and
the way they treated me and their
workingmen. This is far differ
ent from the mines in Missouri,
where the men go home SO black
you cannot tell them from a mig
ger.
The next morning ! left for Reno
down the mountain on an old
stage coach drawn by eight
horses, there were twelve pas
sengers in the load SO it was
a very enjoyable trip. On the
way down a steep grade at a
sharp turn ir1the road with a
high bank on one side, they told
us where the stage was held up a
few years ago, and surely enough
was fine place for such work
| Is all the robber had to do was to
1T there and wait unril the stage
was right even with him then
level his gun on them as they
could not see him until theyWereI
right even with him. In going
down this grade both hind
wheels are locked, of course all
these horses were not needed to
go down but they had to be
there in order to haul the stage
back again. We arrived at Reno
all right and only a short time
before the train was to leave for
the East. The distance from
Reno to Salt Lake, Utah, is
about 400 miles but on all that
route there is not much of inter
est. arrived in Brigham Young's
country short time ago, but as
[ wish to attend the Mormon
church I leave the rest to tell you
