A WESTERN PARADISE.
Santa Catalina at It's Best and Gay.
est-Evening View Is Very
Strangely Stage-Like.

1t is in winter and spring that Santa
Catalina is most attractive, thanks to
the active competition of over 400 dis
tinct varieties of plants and wild flow
ers. But 1.-THE season" is the period
from June to October, and then it is
that life at Avalon lakes on an aspect
Of gayety equal to that of the most
popular eastern watering places. Wis
itors from the north and from the in
land cities, says the Four-Track News,
throng the broad ~verandas, and the es-
planade; the surface OF the bay is
alive with fishing and pleasure craft.
baLners dot the beach, and every form
of outdoor amusement is in full swing.
Early in the season a model tent city
springs up, providing accommodations
for those whose tastes incline them to
the comparative freedom of camp life.
In the evening a thousand electric
lights shed their glow over a scene
strangely stage-like in setting and ar
rangement, and to which the music of
the band lends an added spell. And so II
comes that Catalina is styled "a Magic
Isle" can Enchanted Isle" terms that
to the uninitiated may sound a bit fan
ciful, but which no one who has ex-
perienced its delights will hold as mis-
applied.

After December l, 1904, the Independent will be sent outside of Jackson county only on sub- scriptions paid in advance, and will be stopped upon the expira- tion of the time for which they are paid.
 Subscribers will be notified two weeks prior to the expiration of their subscription, and prompt renewals will cause no skips in receiving thesspaper.
 Our outside mailing list has reached those proportions which make this step necessary to pro- tect ourselves, and we feel that the change will not be objection able, but rather in accordance with the wishes of our outside readers,
 The Independent has only one description price, $l.00 a year for the Weekly, and 40 cents per month for the Daily, but the postal charge for papers to out side addresses, warrants us in requiring these subscriptions to be paid in advance.
 This does not apply to any postoffice in Jackson county, or such towns as Bradford, Alicia, Minturn, Newark, in closely con- tiguous territory.
