gaiety and effect, would have done hon-
or to the fair city on the Seine. There
We're about eighty guests present from
all parts of the Island and large pro-
portion were in masque. The dresses
We're exceedingly interesting.
At s o'clock the company formed up
for the grand march. The procession
was headed by little Red Riding Hood
with her friend the wolf and her aged
relative. Behind came. an array of
witches, fairies, Spanish and Chinese
! beauties, COurtiers, soldiers, sailors
clowns, coons, hayseeds and monde
scripts, which would have made an
habtual topper think he had them

Fertile Lands of Colorado.

The traveller who visits Colorado for the
first time Is surprised and impressed with
the opportunities the state affords In agri.
cultural pursuits. The mineral wealth Of
the state, with its many famous mines,
seems to have become fixed in the minds OF
strangers, crowding out all knowledge OF
her wonderfully fertile sell. Little thought
is ever given to the 1e 900 miles Of irriga-
CATION canals that have been constructed,
and the 2, 600, 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 ell kinds Of fruit
and produce. The wheat exhibit attracted
wide attention, and twenty-five awards
weEe given it alone, the largest number
received by any one state in the Union.
The fruit industry has reached 1900, 900 q
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-
tusely illustrated pamphlet, entitled The
Fertile Lands of Colorado" has just been
issued by the passenger department Of the
Denver & Rio Grande railway, and gives
detailed information Of the lands and their
location, and may be had upon application
to S. X. Hooper, general passenger agent,
Denver, or H. M, Gushing, travelling pas
