LOOKING UP
A LOCATION
MINNESOTA MAN HUNTING PLACE
FOR INVESTMENT OF IDLE
CAPITAL IN THE WEST.
Interested in Building Tenement
Houses and Has Considerable
Faith in Future Growth of Lar
JAMESTOWN About City by Lo-
cal Real Estate Dealer.

M. e. Lewis of Vista, Mimi, who
has been visiting at Fort Collins and
other cities in the west, was a Lar
annie visitor this morning, a guest at
the Hotel Phillips. Mr.. Lewis is look
ing over the west with a view to find
ing a suitable location for the invest
ment of some capital of his own and
to find a place for investment to be
recommended to a number OF his Min
nesota friends, who also have their
| eyes or the golden growing vest.
Mr.. Lewis spent some time with R.
II. Fitch, the real estate agent, and
discussed the ACCESSIBILITY of putting a
considerable sum of money in tene-
ment houses in some good western
cities. Mr.. Fitch was able to point
out the need of such an enterprise
here, particularly nov at the opening
of the rolling mills, where many addi-
lions to the population of the city
would be made. Many of the new
corners are sure to be married men
and they will need homes. Mr.. Lewis
plan is to erect houses containing from
five to eight and nine rooms, fitted
with modern conveniences, which will
be either rented or sold to their occu-
pants on advantageous terms.
Asked as to the ACCESSIBILITY of
erecting flats or detached cottages, Mr..
Lewis said he would prefer the latter,
as a well built fiat could not furnish
as low rem as detached cottages, and
with the large number of splendid lots
for sale, it seemed unnecessary to
crowd the residents into flats, which,
while having many advantages in
cities where land Is very high priced,
had numerous disadvantages. The de-
tached cottage could be kept at a
much less cost than the larger build
ing. and gave one an air of freedom
in his surroundings not found in the
fiat.
Mr.. Lewis will go to Rawlins from
here. He is quite well pleased with
Laramie, both from the outlook and
from a climatic point of view, and
proposes to make a strong recommen-
dalton when he returns home. He
says many of his neighbors are turn
ing their eyes in the direction of the
Rocky mountain states and he thinks
well of Wyoming and the Laramie
plain.

LEE DEAD.
Stricken With Apoplexy En Route to Washington.
DIED AT THE CAPITAL LAST NIGHT
Brixadier General, Indian Fighter an Expert Cavalry Omcer, Gov. ernOr of Virginia and Consul
 General nt Havana.

WASHINGTON, April 29.-Brigadier General iFitz-Hugh Lee, U. s. A., re- tired, died at Providence hospital here last night from stroke of apoplexy, with which he was attacked while on a train en route from Boston. .
 Cadet at West Point and later an in- , structor there, brigadier general and major general in the Confederate ar my, governor of his native state (Vir- ginia), United States consul general at ! Havana when the Maine was blown up, major general again, this time in the United States volunteer army, and military governor of Havana and final 1 ly d brigadier general in the regular 1 army, commanding the department of Missouri, Fitz-Hugh Lee had a pictur- esque career.
 He had three horses shot from under him and was badly founded at Win chester, Va, Sept 19, 1864.
 General Lee had visited Boston to of ficially invite the state to take part in the Jamestown exposition of 1907. He had been warmly welcomed at the statehouse and when he left for Wash ington appeared in good health and spirits.
 The train had just reached the Har- lem river when the stroke came. The train bearing the general arrived in Washington shortly after 10 o'clock. Under the direction of Major Kean, U. s. A., of the surgeon generals of flee, the patient was removed to Provi- dence hospital
 When the train arrived the general was conscious and received Dr. Tucker in the car. He said smilingly, T am in charge of this man Kean, and he says must go to the hospital, and guess I will have to acquiesce." ..,r.., .
 At 10 o'clock he began to lose con- sciousness, his heart became weaker and respiration most difficult. From that time. e.on he began to gradually sink until the end came. He was not con- scious during the last hour.
 Mrs. Lee, who is at Fort Oglethorps, Ga., with her daughter, has been noti- fled, as also has the son George, who is in San Francisco preparing to sail for the Philippines. The other son, who is in the Philippines, has been cabled of his fathers death.
 General Lee had been spending a few days in Boston and was returning to Washington on his way to join Mrs. Lee.
 Prior to the civil war, at the be- ginning of which he resigned his con- mission in the United States army, General Lee saw considerable frontier duty in movements against the In dians. He was an expert cavalry of- ficer, and on one occasion, June 16, 1860, he was engaged in hand to-hand encounter with Colnanche Indians near Camp Colorado, Tex. His services in the Confederate army as a major general are well known, and during the interval between this war and his active work in the Spanish-American war General Lee filled a number of important positions, including the gov ernorship of Virginia. the presidency of the Pittsburg and Virginia railroad, the collectorship of internal revenue for the Lynchburg district and the con. sui generalship at Havana.
