Few regions have been more richly
endowed by Nature than that famous
section of Western North Carolina
practically termed the "Land of the

health-giving that it has become known
the world over as q natural sanitarium
for the cure of all troubles of a pull

Asheville, the centre of this beauti-
full mountain hemmed plateau, is the
highest city east of Denver, and is a
busy thriving place of $4,000 inh abb
tants, with. all the modernisns of city
life. The city lies just at the point
where the beautiful French Broad
and Swannanoa rivers Join their crys-

Within the city or in Its suburbs
many people of wealth have built beau
tiful and expensive homes, most
notable among them being the chateau
of Mr.. George W. Vanderbilt, which
with its great estate, has cost upwards
of four million dollars.
Asheville is an sll-the-year resort,
for the great mountains protect it in

summer climate is made delightful
because of its altitude.

ANTI-REBATE LAW
1t Will Affect the Issuance OF
Passes On Texas Roads.

Galveston, Tex, Aug. Sit was
learned here to-day that one of the
principal matters discussed by the
railroad attorneys who met at Dallas
on Wednesday was the Texas anti-re-
bate law, which will take effect on
Aug. 26.
Mr.. J. w. Terry, solicitor for the
Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fee Railway
company, today made his report to
General Manager Polk, but Col. Polk
declined to make known its contents.
1t was learned on good authority, how
ever, that the railroad attorneys with
one accord attached a very broad inter-
probation to the new act, and it is said
the general managers of the Texas
lines will each within few days, per-
haps Friday, issue orders which will
greatly restrict the issuance of
passes. In fact, it is said that the
man who can secure pass after the
law goes into effect will be
entitled to be known as crackerjack.
1t is believed that passes will be re-
stricted to bona fide employees of rail-
roads, and that newspaper transporta-
ton will be brought down to the strict
basis of exchange for advertising. If
the order proves to be ss rigid as is
predicted, the men who passed the law
will one and all have to pay fare back
to Austin in the event there is spe-
cial session of the egislature.-Hous-
ton Post.

When he studied the device he became

CLOUDCROFT RATES
The Subject of Warm ControVer
sizes


Another black cloud has risen over
the passenger rate horizon in Texas
and Louisiana. For the past week sig
nificant rumors of a coming split among
southwestern roads over the rate situa-
ton have been flying as thick as bull
lets and the immediate prospect favors
q rate war to the death. How long the
struggle will last can not be calculated,
but the Texas and Pacific and the
Southern Pacific, the two principal
road. involved in the dispute, are pre-
pared TO give each other the best fight
10 their shops and will stubbornly main
tain their points of vantage.
In connection with tho above the fol-
lowing from the New Orleans Plea
yune of Aug. will be of interest:
There threatens to be a rate war
on soon in the passenger departments
of the Texas and Pacific and Southern
and Pacific railroads. 1t appears that
q few weeks ago the Texas aud Pacific
made ope-fare rate for the round trip
between New Orleans and point in
New Mexico, about eighteen miles
from Ell Paso, Tex"
The attention Iof Mr.. E. P. Turner.
general ticket and passenger agent OF
the Texas and Pacific railway, being
called to the above he made the follow
ing statement to News represent
alive.
GA correction is in order here. The
Texas and Pacific railway put on a
summer excursion rate to Cloudcroft,
N. NJ, point ITO miles northeas: OF
Ell Paso, at Sc above the Ell Paso rate.
This rate applies only from Alexan-
dria, La, west on the line of the Texas
and Pacific railway, and does not ap-
ply from New Orleans. The Southern
Pacific railway insisted that we dis
continue our sales of these tickets to
Cloudcroft, which we refused to do
hence the beginning of this rate war.
The Southern Pacific then Immediate
~ put in effect one fare nOn-signa-
ture, ron-descriptive round trip ticket
the Texas and Pacific, in its turn.
Immediately put in q one fare round
trip ticket from New Orleans to Lake
Charles, Beaumont. Houston, Calves
ton, Austin and San Aatonio, and the
indicat 'ons are that the war just begun
is on in earnest, and the prospect is
that the cut rates will spread all over
the country, as the Texas and Pacific
positively refuses to discontinue the
selling of these tickets to Cloud croft,
N. M, our claim being that the South
ern Pacific should do likewise instead
of having taken the action that 1t did.
Mr.. Turner was not prepared to 60
deeper into the matter, but declared
that the Texas and Pacific was abun-
dantly justified in it's course and under
no circumstances would it relent.
Just what effect the rate controversy
will have upon other roads in this sec
tion cannot be accurately predicted,
but from what news representative
could learn yesterday the trouble has
only just begun and that if the other
rsadS take action the whole southwest
may shortly be involved in one of the
most hotly contested rate wars record

AUTOMATIC COUPLERS.
The First Invention, Its Inventor
And Others We're Overwhelmed
In Ruin.

The idea of self-locking coupler
suggested itself to inventors many
years ago, and away back in 1856 or
therea bouts q prosperous Kentucky
farmer named Mclean figured out q
device that seemed to fill the bill to q
dot. 1t consisted of a pair of inter-
locking levers, controlled by very
simple mechanism, and the model
worked like charm. Mclean wss
satisfied he had a fortune in sight. and
went north to interview a certain big
railroad magnate. To his surprise the
magnate failed to enthuse, and, while
he admitted that the invention was
a good thing, he declined absolutely
to have anything to do with it. OF
course, he was proceeding on the
well-known theory that 1t is folly to
waste money improving the service
woen you don't have to, but the farm
err couldn't grasp he idea, and he be-
gan pilgrimage from one headqusr-
ter Office to another, appealing expos
tulating ard explaining the merits of
his apparatus. What bewildered him
was that every body freely admitted the
utility of the thing, but nobody would
consider it's adoption. Finally the war
came on, and everything else was swept
into the background for four years.
After peace was declared Mclean be-
gan paiu confident as ever. He had
been worth $4,000 or $50, 900 when he
started and he eventually reduced him
self to penury. Everything went
into the nav of the invention, and

J. S. Hobson, signal engineer of the
Santa Fe, is arranging plans for an ex-
tension of the block signal system over
the Santa Fe line between Denver and
Pueblo, distance of la miles. There
Is much traffic over this stretch Of
track and the block signal system will
be an additional safeguard against col
lisions. The extension will probably
be commenced within the next thirty
days. With the latest extension the
greater portion of the main line of the
