tons and Praise.

The following letter was recei'
we'd at North Dakota headquart-
ers yesterday from Charles M.
Reeves, chief of the department
of domestic exploitation of the
Worlds Fair. Two years ago
Mr.. Reeves spent a week in
North Dakota in the interest of
the Fair and state exhibit, during
which time he visited a number
Of the larger cities and was plea
sanity impressed with the state
and her people, as evidenced by
his kindly remarks on the states
showing at the Fair. Following
is his letter.

kota's representation at the Ex-
position. and as a result of my
inspection of your various exhib-
it's I want to congratulate you
and the state on the showing
made. In saying that you have
one of the best and handsomest
exhibits in the agriculture build
ing. I but voice the sentiment Of
all who have seen it. The install
alton is novel-different from any
other at the fair-and naturally
excites well-merited admiration
| The elegance and comfort o1
your headquarters has attracted
much attention from those who
have enjoyed your hospitality
The clever way in which yor
have displayed the resources O:
the state is a model for exhibitors
at future expositions, and the
daily demonstrations of your

immense amount of good.

corn states.
When you receive your exhibit
of vegetables I am coming over to
beg a few potatoes. 1 never saw
such splendid vegetables in my
life as those shown me while I
Fwas in your state. Mammoth in

celery, beets and other garden
stuff were the best I ever ate,
and I am sure you will be able to

vegetable time comes around.
The Roosevelt cabin in your ex.
hibit is one of the features of the
entire exposition. I have never
been over there when it was not
crowded with visitors, and the

on coats and dresses everywhere

Trowbfidge EntL,uses.

After short trip of inspection to Prince William sound and adja- cent country, John r. Trowbridgc manager of the A. r. x. Co. upon his return to Seattle, spoke of Val dcz us follows:
 While north 1 visited Valdez, the gateway to the Copper r.ser valley. IL is an interesting place and is becoming more important as the months roll by. 1 rode o tt over the so-called Abercrombic or government military trail from Valdez to the summit of the moun- tain range back of the town. It is a splendid trail and it has been one of the chief factors in opening up the Copper river valley.
 This trail makes the Copper river route the shortest and only practicable one in winter to the new Panama iiggings. |; is also good route to and from Nome. The people of Valdez are alive 10 the importance of this winter route Co Panama, and to that end they have already formed a company for the purpose of operating tramway across tine summit oi the mountain range, distance of 23 miles back of Valdez. By means of this tram supplies can i'e carried over the range, and after that moved on with comparative ease to Panama.
 Tine Valdez winter route to Tan ana will grow in favor from year to year. It means business not only for Valdez but for Seattle. What helps Valdez will help Seat tie.
 Very good reports were being received at Valdez from the Nizi- ma district, though but few peo- pie had returned from the digs ings up to the time 1 left"

( RsmaTkabls Competitor.

One of tho most extraordinary competitions which have ever tak, en place was attempted the othes week in Baltimore. Six unhappy creatures were placed on a plat form, each of them opposite a grand piano, and prize was given to the performer who played the longest at a stretch. It was not necessary that the six performers should give the same music; so long as they rendered what the programme calls intelligent mu- sic" it was considered satisfac- tory. The winner played 30 hours. He lost four pounds in weight and had to be attended by several doctors at the conclusion of the performance. The most striking fact is that five members of the audience sat it out.

To Bachelors.

There are some hundreds oi thousands more men than women in the Central and Western states of America and in Canada.
 As Il result thousands of tr,nty men-Farmers, Miners and others living in certain districts there cannot possibly get wives in their own neighborhoods. i But in England, Scotland. Ire- land and Wales there are a million more women than men and, in these countries, thousands of good, intelligent and attractive girls many of them daughters of farmers and all of them qualified to make excellent wives-see nothing be- fore them while they stay here but the prospect of living and dying as old maids and this. to them, is a decidedly unpleasant prospect. They would willingly emigratc to America, could they be assured that they were going ;o meet worthy men there as husbands, and that they could look forward 10 happy, if humble, homes on the other side of the Atlantic.
 We may say that all of them could afford to emigrate at their own expense.
 We are prepared to give good men introduc,ions to these girls.
 If you wish to get an introduc- ton please write us with such par ticulars of yourself (sgc. national fly, occupation and circumstances) as sensible girl would expect to get and we shall write you in re- ply, with view to bringing about a suitable introduction without un- due delay.
 Tell us what kind of a wife (age, nationality, appearance and dis position) you wish to get.
 If you have preference for any particular Christian Sect please name it.
 You will also enclose our fee of $5. A further fee of $45 will be due to us within one month after marriage, thus making $50 alto gether. We do not coniine our selves to one introduction. We give as many as will be necessary until marriage. But we make no charge for any introduction after the payment of our said fee of $5 for the first.
 It is not at ali necessary that you should be a wealthy man.
 But it is necessary that you be d man who would make kind and good husband to a good wife.
 Ii you arc not such man please do not write us.
