termed the "Land Of the Sky" II has 4
climate so dry and heaIth-glylng
that II has become known the world over
M a natural santnrlum for the cure OF all
troubles Of pulmonary or bronchial ma.

Asheville, the centre OF this beautiful
mountsin-hemmed plateau, Is the highest
city ( Of Denver, and Is busy, thriving
place . $4,000 inhabitants, with ali the
modcrnisms Of city life. The city lies lust
at the point where the beautiful French
Broad and Swammoes rivers loln their
crystal waters.
Within the city or IN It's suburbs many
people of wealth have built beautiful nnd
expensive homes, most notable among
them being the chateau OF rlr. ueorpe w

Higher prices for iron, copper,
steel, coal etc, and for wheat, but
very little raise in cotton If the
.aeecy staple will only go up to eight
cents. for midland uplands, the
South will enjoy an era of prosperi-
ty. Itis undeniable that better
times are prevailing over the coun-
try as a whole, We fear it is only
a temporary squirt allowed by the
goIdbugs, and that inside of tive
years contraction aud low prices
will again prevail Fact is, the

FRIDAY MORNINGS BLAZE.

At one o'clock Friday morning, q
fire broke out in a cottage, sO2,
Wood street, occupied by Mr.. Tul-
ley, and owned by Mr. Blankeuship.
The house was insured for t4OO and
the furniture for $65O, both with
Ofeubauser Agency. The house
adjoining, was occupied by R. L.
Bridgman and owned by Rev. ]. w.
J0hnson, of Atlanta, Texas. If
these latter gentlemen had any in
surauce, it was not with the Often
hauser Agency. There was another
cottage ia the line of the fire which
was occupied by George Booker and
H. E. Moore, it was several times
on fire but was put out, the loss on
the building is light.
The origin of the fire is not def
nitely known, but conjectural. Mr..
Tulley SAYS his wife is at Dallas on
visit, and that he had come in
late and kiuded,a a fire in the steve
to cook himself supper, and used
coal oil in making the fire; that at
ter be had eaten and gone to bed
he discovered the kitchen on fire, and
thinks he must have left the Goa
oil can too close to the stove. We
are sorry of the loss to these gen
tlemea and all Others concerned.

is unsuccessful the simple campis NOV

The Prospector Comes Home
When the First Snow Flies.

Montana owes much to the prospec-
tor, II was he who first attracted at
tention to the golden sands of her
streams; it was he who led the thou
sands of goldseekers to her valleys; it
was he again whose explorations re-
suited in the discovery of the treasure
laden lodges that have brought to the
state permanent prosperity and made
her great among the commemorative
of the country. Ever in advance of civ
ilization,s always certain of something
new and better in store for him; brave
hopeful, self-reliant and honest--the
prospector is a product of the West, a
result of the conditions that existed
here in early days and which may be
said to still prevail in some regions of
the Northwest. In the early history of
The country, while the great centrol
portion of the nation was building up,
the prospector, as he is known in the
West. was not factor. With the dis
covery of gold on the Pacific coast he
sprang into being and his has been
prominent part in the upbuilding of
this great western empire.
Always surrounded by an atmos-
phere of mystery, the prospector has
furnished abundant material for the
writer's of tales and many yarn has
been spun about him. OF these some
few are true Others bear about as
much resemblance to the prospector
as they do to General Washington.
The prospector is not prone to talk of
himself and it is not to be wondered at
that writer's have been forced to draw
upon their imaginations for material
for articles describing him. He is too
common figure in Montana to re-
