OPENING OF THE NORMAL.
School Begun Monday with Fla
 Vora bic Prospects for Success

The Ozark Normal opened Monday morning under the most favorable condition and every thing bids fair for q successful future for the school.
 There have been enrolled so far this week about 100 students, which is 8 good showing, con- sidering that about all the public schools of the county are now -in session, not only affording many pupils school advantages that would otherwise come here, but keeping away many teachers who intend to become students of the Normal.
 The members of the faculty employed are all on hand and the way the school is getting down to business is enough to convince any spectator that the institution is to accomplish great results.
 THE TRIBUNE regrets that circumstances have been such that we have been unable to ac- cord the opening of this school the attention that the subject merits. We are very proud of the institution and we believe 1t should and will be given the hearty co-operation and support that IS necessary 10 make 1t reach the highest degree of success possible.
 The dedicatory sermon at the College Chapel Sunday by Rev. Harvey Beauchamp of Little Rock was we'll attended. His theme was the elements of suc- cess in life, or rather the piers that support the bridge that leads to success. It was indeed masterful effort, and highly ap- propriate to the occasion.
 The building will receive the finishing touches as fast as they can be given 1t, not 10 interfere with the work of the school.
 While the general appearance of the building is not the most tasteful, yet it is an acknowledge ed fact that it is pre- eminently the best arranged building for school work in this portion of the state.

THE YELLOWSTONE PARK.
Anerica's Greatest Wonderland
 by Margie Russell Smith.

Livingston, Mont, Aug. g.
 Dear Readers Tt affords me unusual pleasure to address my friends through the columns of THE TRIBUNE and tell them some- thing of our visit to the great west.
 Leaving Green Forest July 23, four days later found us 1500 miles away in the beautiful city of Livingston. We immediately took overland conveyance for the ranch home of our father, R. c. Smith, where we have partici- pated in quite an extended re- union of the "Smith family.''
 On August Il jolly party of ten, composed mostly of the Smith family and relatives, start ed on 8 camping tour of that great wonderland, the Yellow stone National Park. We were equipped with 8 large wagon, loaded with things incidental to our trip, and carriages for the passengers. Our first camp of interest was at Gardiner, the terminus of the Park Branch railroad, 54 miles south of Livingston. The unique log depot and imposing stone arch way, over which is inscribed "For the benefit and enjoyment 0 i the people," add much to the attraction to this northern boundary entrance to the Yellow stone Park, which is in the northwestern corner of Wyoming, in the heart of the Rocky moun- tains. It's boundaries overlap a few miles into Montana on the north and Idaho and Montana on the west. The reservation IS about sixty five miles east and west, and seventy five miles north and south. It embraces an area of thirty five hundred square miles, has an average altitude of eight thousand feet above sea level, and is both en- circled and traversed by ranges of the Rocky mountains. The land is owned by the government and the improvements are made at the nation's expense. There is stationed at Fort Yellowstone three troops of cavalry. It IS the duty of these soldiers to patrol the roads and prevent the spreading of camp fires. NO railroad is allowed to enter or cross the Park, but there IS model wagon road built by the government, which extends from the main entrance through ana back again over general route of 40 miles long, connecting lve of the most important centers and as many different regions 
 where things of the most interest are found, namely: The Foun- tain, The Upper Geyser Basln' The Lake, and The Canon. Along this route there are a thousand and one things that II they were placed elsewhere

ULATE IMPROVEMENT AssN's.
Contribution of 800 offered for AS
sociation Which Will Make Great
est Improvement This Season-As-
.sociations Should File Information
with Wallace G. Nye.

Lawn prizes will be given by the
Commercial club this year to improve
ment associations instead Of to indi-
viduals, if the suggestion Of Wallace
G. Nye, secretary of the public affairs
committee, is carried out. For the
past two years. under the direction of
the civic improvement committee,
prizes for the best kept yards and for
the greatest improvements by owners
or occupants of property, have been
given. These have resulted in great
Improvement in the appearance of the
city. It Is now felt that some change
in plan can be adopted to produce
even more marked results. The sug-
gestion to give prizes to Improvement
leagues will be considered by the COM
mittee. .,
A contribution Of 500 has been Of
fered for the body Of residents that
will organize and show at the end of
the season that it's territory has made
the greatest improvement. This will
expand and supplement the work of
the associations already organized.
G. M. Loring, chairman of the civic
Improvement committee, wants the
name of every improvement associa-
ton or league in Minneapolis. If Off
GERS will send to Wallace G. Nye, $50
Andrus building, names Of their as
sociations and describe the territory
covered, some plan will be devised for
prize offers. ssT
The committee urges the formation
of associations in every part of the
CITY ana is willing to encourage every
effort to improve neighborhOOd con-

TALKS TO BUSINESS MEN
NO.. d

Before a newspaper can have any value
for advertising its readers must be at
tracted to 1t by carefully considered
choice on its merits as a reliable, enter
prlsing newspaper. 1t must first print the
news, without prejudice, and analyze it In
the public Interest, thus making the best
paper always the best advertising medium.
The New York Herald Is sold for 3
cents, the Cincinnati Inquirer for cents
Tine constituency which prefers to pay 8
cents for The Herald while other New York
papers are sold for cent, each attest by
their willingness to pay the higher price
their appreciation of Its underworld repu-
tation of The Herald as anewspaper.
The most Intelligent advertisers indorse
this paper by paying higher prices for ad-
vertislng space In it's columns than they
are asked to pay In any other paper.
The price of the Cincinnati Enquirer,
cents, takes 1t entirely out Of the reach OF
competition In Its own field. and Its pros.
perIty Is the highest evidence that adver.
tIsers seek discriminating public when
they can get one.
While there are a good many men who
are willing to pay cent for a sensational
report Of a dog fight, they do not admit
such papers into their houses or. permit
their children to see them at all. Hence
the wide Influential field open to The Min
neapoIIs Journal, and this enterprise Is re.
garded by the patronage of the most dis.
eliminating advertisers to be found In
Minneapolis and the northwest and al
seeking business relations with this grea,

HOUSE IN THEIR VICINITY.

Police Superintendent Conroy's at
tention has been called to other sec
tons Of the city that have been in
vaded by disorderly houses. The
latest complaint comes from the per-
sons living near Highland and Lyn-
dale avenues. They say that there are
two houses near there that are a. dis
grace to the neighborhood. Carriages
come there at all hours Of the night
and altho the places are quiet the
neighbors are subjected to the annoy
ance of having persons call asking
for the resort. ....
Superintendent Conroy has prom
Used to make an inquiry. One of his
officers was called to one of the
places a few weeks ago to settle a dis
pute between two women.
Since the crusade against the ex-
pansion policy of the resorts about
twenty proprietors have been called
to the superintendent office and
given warning.

CUBA'S CAPITAL
"CLEAR HAVANA"
COL. JOYCE TELLS OF BEAUTIES
OF CUBAN METROPOLIS.
Great Opportunities on the Island for
the Man with Money - Grape and
Orange Industries Are Being De-
veloped, Says the Returned Trav-
eler.

Havana is not only the cleanest
city I nave ever seen or ever expect
to see, but it is the only city of $780,
900 inhabitants which does not have
a superannuated or sloppy policeman"
said Colonel Frank M. Joyce, who has
returned from several weeks spent in
Cuba.
mot only are the policemen all
young men and as natty, trim and
clean shaven as West Pointers, but the
mail carriers, the fire department
members and even the notormen pre-
sent the same delightful appearance,
in great contrast to that presented by
some of the public servants in the
states.
'Their appearance is typical Of Ha-
vana, for in the first place it is city
without chtmneys or smoke and in
the second place it has the cleanest
streets you can imagine. There are
cities not a hundred miles from here
which could copy Havana in many re-
spects and profit thereby.
Cuba. as I saw it, offers exceptional
advantages for a man with money.
It's richness along lines already ex-
plotted is about to be increased by
the introduction Of the grape and
orange industries, which while now in
the experimental stage, give promise
of great success. Under the old Span
ish law designed for the protection OF
the wine makers Of Spain. no Cuban
could have more than one grape vine.
But I should think the Cuban hills
would make magnificent vineyards.
while Cuba is wonderful place
to make money and the Yerxas are al
ready investing largely and have be-
gun to realize roundly from their in
vestments, it is a. poor place for a
poor man because Of the high rates
of interest. The Spaniards still con-
| troll the money market and IL and 1S
per cent is not regarded as an unusual
rate. Even the branch Bank OF
| Canada has discount rate Of 1 per
cent a month.
There are great many Americans
there. In one day in Cuba met
twenty-one Minneapolis persons
knew. But the investors don't want
| annexation. A big importing jobber
named Fair, who went there from the
states six years ago, told me that he
would move out if Cuba was annexed
because the Cuban business methods
are 80 much superior to those here.
Instead of selling at thirty, sixty
or ninety days, with a discount fol
cash in thirty days, the Cuban mer.
chants ind other business men sci
with the understanding that there
shall be q settlement each Saturday
If that settlement is not Forthcoming
upon the second Saturday, the del1n'
| uuent is posted. T found no Cubans
who favored annexation, altho the
Spaniards, inspired by jealousy, Woulc

this cOuntry,''
