ADVERTISING
SUNM0UNT
Management of the Health Pro-
ducing Tent City Issues a
Handsome Pamphlet.
CLIMATIC CONDITIONS
This Feature Of the Ancient Capital
City Is Elaborated Upon at
Great Length
SunmOunt Tent CITY.

The fame of this health producing
resort is being heralded far and wide,
and there is perhaps no section of the
country, from Canada to the Gulf of
Mexico, and from the metropolis to the
-'City of the Golden Gate" that will not
receive one of the handsomely illus
trated pamphlets, which will shortly
Printing company ready for distribu-
ton.
The management of Sunmount Tent
City, Messrs. Gibson & Dow, have
spared no labor or expense in getting
out this pampA.., and it will be sent
through the mails strictly as first
class matter as all of the advertising
sent out by this enterprising firm, is
accompanied by personal letter, and
sent at first-class postal rates.
An order for 10000 of these pamph-
lets has been placed. In addition to
being handsomely illustrated with half
tone reproductions of scenes at the
Sunmount Tent City, and in the his
toric Capital City of the Territory, it
consists of prospectus, fully adyer-
tising every feature of this health re-
sort.
The ideal climate of Santa Fe is al
SO elaborated upon at great length,
showing that Santa Fe enjoys the most
delightful climate of any section of
the country, and that there is only one
cloudy day in every twelve, sunshine
predominating.
Such advertising as this not only
boosts Santa Fe before the eyes of a
reading and intelligent public at large
but tends to largely counteract the
evil effects of the pen pictures issued,
ia which the ancient Capital City ap-
pears with only a back ground of an
cient ruins, when as matter of fact it
is fast becoming one of the most pro-
gressive cities in the Great South
west.
The management of Sunmount is to
be congratulated for causing to be is
sued and generally distributed such
advertising matter, which can only
be productive of the best possible re-
suits.
AS for Sunmount Tent City itself, it
is the Garden Spot" Of the country
for the health seeker, and will no
doubt in the near future become as
famed and as popular as the famous
springs of the country, and other well
advertised resorts. The power of
printers ink is mightier than the
sword in overcoming the evil of a
community or enterprise lapsing into
oblivion.

in this fashion, and who demonstrate by their
manifestations of loyalty to the Crown that

that OF an apprentice. He was born in a little
village il England in 1886. In his seventh year
his father began 20 teach him music ''On tin
whistle" he says. he soon was graduated to
brass fageolet and IN the face Of the united pro-
tests Of the neighbors learned TO play this. Then
he took I'D The violin. Before he was ten he had
begun 10 compose for that instrument In 1881
he came 10 Chicago and got the position OF
leader in a boys choir. He studied the violin
with Fran Esser. and composition with Wilhelm
Ciddels- hulte. orEarist Of the Thomas Orchestra
He then entered the music school Of Northwest
EN- Uulyersi-y. and on his graduation was made
n instructor IN music here. About three years
ago he met Geor-e A5e. who proposed that they
should work together a-- a musical comedy The
