land for nearly twelve years. but ever
so long a period has not served to blot
out recollection of the furore of en-

when Colonel Mapleson first brought
her back 10 this country a finished

OF Patti, who accompanied her on that
remarkable touree, the equal of which
has probably never been known. In

chair of flowers with Home Sweet
Home traced in the back and silver
bricks representing the wealth of the
mines OF NevaGa's State ere concealed
5Oquets thrown at her feet. When
Nevada reached her native city, Aus
tin. Nevada, the excitement there was
intense. Accompanied by the digni-
ttrIes Of the town, the prjma donna al
lowed herself to be carried everywhere
IN sight of the people who brought
their families and even babies to the
concerts. At times the Singer was so
moved by the manifestation that She
could net sing a note. Miners wept
when they shook her hand. She vas
feted all night and accompanied BY
bands at day.

Fertile Lands OF Colorado.

The traveller who visits Colorado for the
the opportunities the state affords in agri-
cultural pursuits. The mineral wealth Of
the state, with its many famous mines,
seems to have become fixeo in the minds of
strangers, crowding out all knowledge of
her wonderfully fertile soil. Little thought
is ever given to the IL ,OOe miles of irriRa.
cation canals that have been constructed,
and the =, 200, 900 acres of land which have
thus far been made productive. Yet, out
out of 81 exhibits from Colorado at the
worlds fair. eighty-one special premiums
were awarded, covering all kinds Of fruit
and produce. The wheat exhibit attracted
wide attention, and twenty-five awards
were given it alone, the largest number
received by any one state in the Union.
The fruit industry has reached "a DOC, 900 a
year and is yet in its infancy. Sugar beet
culture Is a profitable industry. The min
eral wealth Of the state, which leads all
other states in the Union in the output of
gold and silver, does not compare with her
agricultural wealth. A handsome and pro-
iusely illustrated pamphlet, entitled Tho
Fertile Lands of Colorado" has Just been
issued by the passenger department of the
Denver s. Rio Grande railway, and gives
detailed information of the lands and their
location, and may be had upon application
