pended upon the Gardens. There has
been no stint as to money necessary to
improve the place. 1t would be idle to
dilate upon the improvements that have
been made. The people of Butte who
have enjoyed the pleasures of the park
and. what is more, have appreciated
them, are familiar with all these. There
are cool, shady groves magnificent
flower beds that in season are resplend-

pointed greenhouses. swings and play

i've verandas and cafe, which when
open has an unexcelled cuisine.
But next year there will be additional
attractions in store. The Gardens are
to be enlarged. plot of ground on the
plateau south and adjoining has been
secured. This will be laid out for ath-
letic sports. There will be baseball
grounds, where league games will be
played next year; a football gridiron and
circular cinder path for bicyclists and
sprinters. To the west will be lawn ten
mis- courts and croQuet grounds and in
this new tract of ground new play
ground for the children will also be pro-
vided.
Next year the gardens will be more at
tractive than ever, and all the improve
ments that can be added will be provided
for the public, who have come to regard
the Gardens as their place of amuse-
ment. Hundreds Of families will go to
the cool shade and grassy retreats to en-
Joy nature as it can be here enjoyed.
The ills of life in busy, smoky city can
be forgotten and life appreciated as it
should be. Here green grass, trees and
ripping streams fed by ice cold, mountain
springs will carry the pleasure seekers
thoughts away to rural scenes OF sweet
country life.

The idea that the people of the West
ern part of the United States are wild,
woolly, uncultivated set, not to be toll
Grated in polite society, is rapidly
passing away. Many the best people of
the East have come West and are liv-
ing here, apparently as we'll satisfied
with their surroundings as they were
with the surroundings of their early
homes.
They find here probably a greater pro-
portion of educated people to appre-
ciate worth, and as much refinement III

as they saw in the East. 1t requires

William Dean Howells, the novelist,
said in a recent interview that. after a
desperate endeavor, he had at last been
able to accustom himself to debating
his letters to stenographer but he
added that he could not dictate fiction
in this fashion and never expected to be
able to do so.

1t is not generally known that Lord
Rosebery possesses the costliest collec-
ton of snuff boxes in the world. Many
of them are of solid gold, and some are
set with brilliants. A curiously inlaid
enamel snuff box was at one time the
property of Napoleon Bonaparte. A
small black box studded with three dia-
monds belonged to the eminent states
man, Pitt, while another, plainly inlaid
with fine gold, was used by Fox. AL
though the collection only comprises %
boxes altogether, it's estimated value Is

ject their illumination for a distance of
80 miles. One of them will be sta
toned at Mocha. and it's light will be
about IFS feet above sea level. The
other lights will be placed among the
