from Pacific ports. This travel has re-
ceived an unusual stimulus this year
from the events which have turned the
attention of Americans to the far east.
Counting in the voyagers to the Orient,
the South American and other less Wis
tied points. there are probably not less
than 200. 900 Americans who will visit
foreign shores this summer. If they all
went on one grand excursion il would
require a train of passenger cars thirty
miles long and a fleet of 500 steamers,
forming in single file a steaming line
100 miles long, to convey them.
Nearly two-thirds of these travellers
want to leave this country in May,
June or July. and to return in August.
September and October. Therefore. the
tide of foreign travel is marked by
movements as regular as those of ocean
itself. 1t rises sharply at the begin
ming of May, reaches its hight toward
the end of June and commences to ebb
along in August The outward move
ment is at its hight nov. but there are
indications that the return flow will
begin somewhat later than usual this
season.
1t is during the six months of sum-
mer travel that the companies operat-
ing the great ocean lines make profits
enabling them to keep their ma gnificent
steamers in operation the year around
ST., 100000 to Steamship Companies
There are thirty steamship lines car
rying passengers from New York. some
twenty from different points ON the Pa
cific coast. OF course, many of these
do their principal business in freight,
and have only a small passenger capa-
city. The great passenger carrying
lines which operate the fast liners
number about dozen altogether. These
various companies run about $50 ships
besides freight steamers and sailing
vessels.
The little Americans who lament so
vast an expenditure of money for for
eign travel would be surprised to learn
how large a proportion of ii remains
in this country. Nearly all the voyag-
ers must travel some distance by rail
before beginning their ocean Journeys.
The amount spent in this way and in
unusual expenses in preparations for
the journey is at least $25 for each per-
SON. This makes an item of $1,000, 600
to begin with. which goes directly to
American laborers and tradesmen.
Every person who goes abroad, too
finds it necessary to purchase extra
clothing and travelling supplies to the
extent of at least $50

UNCLE SANS HOT WATER PLANT.
Profit Made Every Year From Arkan-
sas Hot Springs Reservation.
Chicago Inter Ocean)


By an act of congress, passed in
April. 1882, when Arkansas was still a
territory, the Hot Springs. with four
sections of land, were set aside for the
Iltllre disposal of the United States
BY the act of March. 1877. the appoint
ment of commissioners was authorized
TO lay out into town lots and streets
certain tracts of land in Garland coun-
~, a part of the Hot Springs reserva-
ton. The levying of special tax on
water taken from the hot springs was
authorized, the money arising from
water rents to be used in improvement
OF the reservation. By the act of June.
1881, those divisions of thesHot Springs
reservation known as North Mountain.
West Mountain and Sugar Loaf Noun
tam were dedicated to public use as
parks on permanent reservation, ag-
gregating 900 acres
The hot water issues from the base
and side Of the Hot Springs mountain,
and the actual quantity is not known
that which is under control and being
used to supply the bath houses amount
ing to 100000 gallons daily, and the
amount collected and passed through
the impounding reservoir about $50. 600
making a total quantity of not water
under control of about $4,000 gallons
daily. The hot springs are not under
government control. out are directly
managed by the United States govern
ment. which has an investment in them
in excess of $500. 000 As shown by the
last published treasury report, the to-
tai receipts from bath houses and hot
water rent at the hot springs for the
fiscal year ended July /, 1898. was SIS

intendent for salaries. fuel, lights and

scented profit to the United States of

A large number of patrons of the hot
springs are INDECENT persons, who. I'M
able to pay the ordinary hotel charges
or to avail themselves of the paid
bathing opportunities, are supplied free
There is. moreover, a free dispensary
under direction of a. United States
army surgeon. The total number of
patrons is about 5000 a day. though
the facilities of the hot springs allow,
as at present arranged, for 5000. The
resident popula ton of Hot Springs is
about 5000, and the average number of
persons in town patroniZing the sew

BAPTIST VERSUS METHODIST.
Why the Former Dwindled and the
Latter Flourished.
CNew York SUM

The leading denominations prevailing
among the mountains of Virginia, Ken
lucky and the adjoining states are
MethodiStS and BaptiStS. and. as rule,
they are fairly well divided among the
mountaineers, but occasionally, for
some reason or other, an entire COM
munity will be of one faith. / re-
member one season my work took me
to a remote section on the headwaters
of a small creek about twenty-five
miles from the north fork of the Ken
lucky river, and l had not been there
long until l discovered that all my
neighbors were Methodists. They had
a good hewed log meeting house and a
Sunday school and were thriving as a
congregation. There was one old chap,
though, who didn't seem to be an en-
thusiast in the cause. and one day
got to talking to him about the condi-
ton of affairs.

counted good business; six months after
ward the line was choked with trains
from terminus TO terminus. and big gangs
of men were kept busy building sidings
over. which the trains might pass one
another.
From the beginning of his active life
Hill has constantly sought for shorter
ways of doing things. for schemes TO
save labor and so make transportation
rates cheaper. His first warehouse. built
on the ST. Paul levee more than thirty
years ago. long before he owned an inch
of rail, is a case in point. All previously
built warehouses in St Paul stood so far
back from the river that goods unloaded
from the steamers had TO be deposited on
the wharves in the open air till thew
could be carried into the warehouse thus
being handled twice. Hills warehouse
WAS built at the waters edge. so that
goods could be unloaded into it directly
from the steamers. Men laughed at the
warehouse while il was being built. eX-
actly as they did at HIS announcement
later that he was going into the railroad
business. Eventually they stopped laugh
ing and took to initiating him. Confidence
in the country, push. perseverance, and
location of this warehouse have been
great factors i'm the building up of the
Great Northern railroad system.
Mr.. Hill told the writer the other day
that he found out long ago that trans
portation is nothing more nor less than
overcoming the law of gravitation. Were
II not so. a carrier pigeon could move as
much as a locomotive. This explains why
he has so invariaoiy sought for low
grades. his idea being to make his road
as nearly level as possible. He has per-
sonally examined every foot Of territory
through which every Great Northern line
has been built, both as to the resources
of the country and the engineering pos
Sibilities. Confidence in his judgment is
so universal among the people who dwell
in the regions his railroads serve, that a
line of stakes across an unoccupied ter
ritory driven by Great Northern survey
ors. and indicating that a row line will
eventually be bu.-, there. invariably at
tracts settlers in advance of the line, so
that when the rails are laid there is gen.
orally almost enough business at the very
beginning TO make the line pay its way
by itself. certainly enough to insure its
profitable operation as part OF the en-
tire system, and feeder to the main line.
Mr.. Hills beautiful residence, his gallery
of paintings, his 4,0O0-acre farm. where he
lions suitable to the northwest and where
a. noteworthy herd of buffalo is kept have
often been described. He has given care
full thought TO all these things. as we'll as
to the construction and operation of his
roads and the development of the north
west hut to nothing has he devoted more
care than to the education and training
of his sons. One of them. W. l.. Q1nown
