The FAMOUS
HOT SPRINGS.
THERE WILL BE HEAVY
TRAFFIC THIS SPRING.
Season Opens About May Is With Open
ing Of Evans Hotel. A Busy Place
Until September.

The coming season promises to be
the greatest in the history of the
famous Hot Springs resort, which has
so aptly been termed 1.-THE Carlsbad
of America.
There are no expositions this
year, with their ridiculously low rail-
road rates, except at Charleston, and
western railroad men are not exIeet-
ing that the people of the trans-Missis-
sippi country will spend much money
for a trip to South Carolina, when the
great expositions at ST. Louis is so
near at hand Last year the enormous
traffic to Buffalo virtually killed all
business at the western health resorts
and the people of Hot Springs, as we'll
as other summer resorts are hopeful
that travel will come west this year.
1--WE have received an unusually large
number OF inquiries from people all
over the country" said Mr.. j. H Gable
few days ago in conversation, land by
May practically all our Accommodations
will be engaged. Iowa and Nebraska
will send us hundreds of people this
year, and we confidently expect the
greatest season since the famous
springs were discovered. There is a
large party of ST. Paul railway officials
there now in their private car, and they
are devoting themselves religiously to
drinking water, bathing at the plunge
and playing golf. They have the finest
golf links there that can be found any
where. The ground is just rough
enough, within easy walking distance
/ of the hotels. and the unexcelled at
| mosphere makes the game great
pleasure.
| Hot Springs sisswithout dolbt. one OF
the most enterprising little cities in
| the northwest today, with more builds
/ ing in progress than in any city except
Lead City, the great mining town. BY
May another magnificent new plunge
bath, 60XS0 feet, will be opened. The
immense building is lighted from above
is perfectly equipped with sixty-five
private dressing rooms, and the water
runs in depth from three to twelve feet.
The original plung is still larger and
is we'll managed. Bath tickets are
sold at very reasonable rates, and there
is no limit to the time one can dis
port himself in the water, bubbling ul

The passenger department of the

is profusely and elegantly illustrated

were carried from Cross Timbers, near the
mouth Of the Washita river, to Delhi, N.

Services Were Substantial.
The services OF General L~eavenworth
were more substantial than snowy. His
expeditions for the selection and establish
ment Of distant outposts, his treatment OF
powerful tribes Of hostile Indians and his
guardianship OF the advanced western from
tier were marked by courage, genius, energy
and skill. Indeed, he was especially COM
mended by President Monroe for his sue
cessful campaign in 1928 in Iowa. His re-
port In 1921 on the validity OF the Carver"

Of valuable lands. His vigorous treatment

The transfer Of the remains of the dis

propriate action under the circumstances
and the people of Leavenworth are being
commended for II. The importance to
which Fort Leavenworth has grown, soon
to be the largest military establishment and
most modern constructed army post in the
world, and the location there, too, Of the
General Service and Stan college, for the
education OF young army ~ofhcers, make
the selection OF the spot for General Leav-
enworth's final resting place a most fitting
one.
He Yves = Creator.
No other oficer In the army exercised SO
profound ar influence upon the develop
ment Of the standard OF duty and discipline
in the army OF the United States during
its formative period. He was certainly
one OF the most active and intelligent
OF the small number Of regimental COM
manders upon whom devolved the duty OF
adapting European methods OF drill. disci-
plIne and administration to the peculiar
needs Of our own military service. How
well this task was performed was seen,
writes Judge Advocate General Davis. u. s..
A.. "a little more than ten years later in
the splendid behavior Of the regular regi-
ments in the war with Mexico" He was
a maj OF broad and varied culture. keenly
alive to the needs Of the time. and fully
impressed with a sense OF the Importance
Of the part which the army was to play in
the development OF the great empire beyond
the Mississippi. which had but recently
been acquired. and the very boundaries or
which. to say nothing OF Its vast resources
and vast possibilities, were then practically
unknown.
General Leavenworth was the descendant
Of a distinguished family Of soldiers. His
grandfather was a chaplain In the Second
Connecticut regiment under Nathaniel
Whiting and entered Canada with Il DUR
ing the French war in the SOS OF the eigh-
teenth century. His father was a lieu

General LeavenwOrth's Career.
General L~eavenworth was born at New
Haven in 1888 and died in 1884. after an
active career, as a lawyer, statesman and
soldier. Upon the outbreak Of the war Of
1912. his father having in the meantime
located at Delhi, N. Y, he organized a
company Of volunteers in Delaware county.
He won great distinction upon the battle
field, was wounded thrice and had a horse
hot from under him. His service was so
marked with dash and gallantry that the
general government rendered him a COM
mission as major Of infantry, which he ac-
cepted only with the understanding that
he be permitted to serve in the New York
legislature. TO which his people had elected
him over his protest. Before entering the
volunteer service he was a partner OF Gen.
eral Erastus Root. one OF the great law
yers Of his day. Having completed his
service In the legislature he re-entered
the army and made a record that will stand
Tor ali time. In 1918 he was promoted a
lieutenant colonel and assigned to the Fifth
infantry. He marched with his regiment
from Detroit. Mich. to the Falls Of St.
Anthony. on the upper waters of the Mis-
sissippi. and there, on It's banks. located
