Summer TOurs-Niagara Won
derland.

uCTlduus
For generations Niagara Falls has
been the great objective point for
tourists in the United States, and do.
spite the prophecies of many savants,
it is likely to continue SO for many
more generations.
In early years Niagara Falls trip
was very expensive. the property own
eIs, guides, oabmen, ETC., vying as to
who could quickest drain the pockets
of the tourists. But this is all chang
ed. the state of New York on the one
side and the Province of Ontario on
the other having reserved for Public
Parks the best situations adjacent to
the Falls. with free admissions and a
low rate of charge for licensed car
ria !es being rigidly enforced by the
Park Commission.
One special expensive trip was the
view of the rapids, but now the Mia
CARA Gorge Railroad Go. running a
line of trolley cars on each side Of the
Rapids, affords fine view of the
whirlpool. etc.
One special point of Niagara Falls is
that it does not fall on the senses af-
ter one view, on the contrary. new
beauties are discernable as often as
visited and many persons assert that
the best of its beauty is not seen un-
til the third or fourth visit.
In contradistinction to the old sys.
TEN of expensive. wearisome travel
ling necessary TO visit Niagara in for
mer years, the Ten Day Ten Dollar
tours by the Reading Lehigh Valley
route are very noticeable. Special
trains leave Reading Terminal 8 80 a.
m. July l3. August and 10, Septem-
Der and IA and October 8, and after
daylight run through the scenic Le-
high and Wyoming Valleys, arrives at
Niagara Falls in the early evening.
Tickets for these excursions sold at
rate of Ten Dollars for round trip from
Philadelphia and proportionate rates
from other points, are good on special
train or connections only and good to
rsturn within ten days on all trains
except the "Black Diamond Express. "
On return trip stop-overs will be al
lowed at numerous points of interest,
and holders of these tickets can secure
special low rates ON side trips from
Niagara Falls, etc. For full informa-
tion consult ticket agents or address

"YellOw jack"

1t comes as shock, this story of
yellow fever at New Orleans.
The fact that the first report merely
oozed through. SO to speak, does not
make it less impressive, and carries
with it the suggestion that it has been
announced after deliberation and con-
siderable activity by the health auth.
critics to looalize the suspected cases.
Yellow fever is no jest. In the men,
orable epidemic of 1878 it carried
away 5000 souls in New Orleans and
/ Memphis and the country between.
Even the north remembers those days
tho terror thereof and the suspense.
For that matter, the north had cause
of it's own to dread the pestileuoe.
Later than 1899 Philadelphia was
scourged by it. Boston was fellow
sufferer in 1897. OF late years it has
orept up the Mississippi valley, only
to be checked fortunately BY sanitary
measures and redeemlng frosts.
No. Yellow fever is no joke. Nor
does the south regard it as one. The
whole country is with the south on
guard against it.
Forithere is this about it. There is
reason to believe that mans fight
against the pestilenoe is on the point
of victory. That such a gratifying re-
suit is possible is shown by the fact
that the disease has been rare even in
Cuba since the Americans occupied
the island in 1898 and cleaned it. All
that is needed now is to corner the
fugitive cases that may develop on the
gulf coast and treat them with the
concentrated experience of costly
past. and strike the final blow that
will make it a happily forgotten night
mare.
Aftar that, to deal death to it on
the isthmus and the West Indies to
crown the medical and hygienic
achievements of the Goth century.

Unable to Paw

New York, July 29.-Alleging that
the Equitable Life Assurance Society
is unable to pay to its policy holders
the sums due to them. Col. J. Wilcox
Brown of Baltimore, Md, who has
for the past 81 years been dropping
money into the Equitable vaults. de
clares that the company is insolvent
and asks that receiver be appoint
ed to take charge of the present
funds of the society, and that the
right of the company to continue in
the insurance business be denied.
Through his attorneys, Col. Brown
filed his complaint in the United
States court for the 9TH district.
In the complaint, doubt is cast up
on the bona fide nature of the sale
of the Hyde stock, and it is recited
that Juggling with the funds, extrav-
aganee and misappropriation and
other evils have taken place under
the AleXander-Hyde management.
The business of the company is de-
clared to be at standstill, and it is
added Whatever business may be
done will be at the expense of the
policy holders. Their interest is to
place the society in the hands of a
competent receiver appointed by the
court, and to gradually, prudently
and economically close up the affairs
of the company"

Mineral Claims

Washington, July 29.-Commis-
sioner Richards of the general land
office today expressed the opinion
that mineral locations may be made
in that part of the Uintah reserva-
ton lands in Utah which was recent
ly reserved for forestry purposes. in
the same manner in whicn such loca-
tions may be made in other forest
reservations.
About 10000 acres of the land i'm
the reservation will be held for re
clamation by irrigation, under the
direction of the government, and
Will not be subject to entry
Commissioner Richards was today
notified that an interview with him
has been printed charging him with
casting reflections upon the people
of Salt Lake City in connection with
the opening of the Uintah Indian
reservation. Explaining the matter
the commissioner said:
In a general conversation with
several newspaper reporters. brought
up by a petition forwarded from Salt
Lake asking for registration at that
city in connection with the reserva-
tiOn opening, / stated that there were
objections to having registration in
any large city. | did not Understand
my statements were to be published.
lhe mann Ohlect IN opening reSer-
vations by registration and drawing
is to furnish facilities for actual set
tlers to secure homes without hay
ing to undergo the hardship and vi
olence which attended the Okla
homa and. other opening before this
plan was adopted. The only fault
so far found in the plan is that so
many who have no intention of maxi
ing entry and taking up actual res
idence upon the land entered. regis
ter for speculative purposes only.
Every one of this class who reg
isters depreciates the chance of an
Intending actual settler. The larg-
er the city the greater the number of
those who would register upon the
chance of getting something which
they could sell. In opening the
Uintah reservation the purpose was
to not have registration in any of
the large cities. and in the CONVEX
sation quoted in such an unwarrant-
ed manner | explained the reason
for this and used no expression
that in any way reflected upon the
people OF Salt Lake, with whom
am well acquainted and for whom l
have high regard"

Will Never Hang

Denver, July 29.-There Is n
chance that amounts almost to Ger
tainty that Charles O. Peters will
never be hanged for his part in the
murder of Mrs. Amanda Youngblood
Governor Mcdonald said yester-
day that he believed the young man
was undoubtedly insane, and that
his sentence would be either commut-
ed to life imprisonment or he would
be pardoned outright and placed in
an insane asylum.
There is little doubt in my mind
that the boy is crazy" said the gov
ernor. He is very weak, refuses to
take food and there is a strong prob
ability that he will live but few
months at most. | do not think he
is shamming. / believe he is gen
timely crazy. and OF course the board
of pardons would not think of al
lowing him to hang in this condi-
ton"
Peters is under sentence of death
for the murder of Mrs. Youngblood
on New Years eve. 1903. His com
panions in the crime, Newton An
drews and Fred Arnold, were hang
ed about six weeks ago. Peters was
sentenced to be hanged with them,
gut was granted a reprieve to the
week beginning November 19 next.
Shortly after his incarceration in
the penitentiary. Peters developed
signs of insanity. His condition has
steadily grown worse, and 1t Is pos
sible he may not live to need other
reprieye.

New Orleans, La, July 29.-Al-
though the unofficial reports made
public yesterday showed a larger
number of deaths than the day be-
fore, when there were only two, and
the appearance of number of new
cases. the men of science who are
warning against the yellow fever
plague ended the days labors conf
dent that the situation was well in
hand and with no immediate pros
pect of becoming alarming.
The entire section above Canal
street is free from a single case, and
the fever is spreading only in the
poorer habitations of the downtown
section. The new cases are isolated
except in the heart of the French
market quarter. The health author
tiles continue to hold that the plague
remains an Italian infection, all eX-
cept two of the cases reported yester-
day, being of that nationality.

Washington, July ga letter
has been prepared by the officials of
the reclamation Office setting forth in
detail just what lands by sections and
quarter sections they desire should
be set aside for the purpose of irri-
cation in the Uintah reservation.
In a general way the lands thus
sought to be segregated by the recla-
nation service are almost entirely in
the eastern half of the Uintah reser-
yation, although a small area is
thought to be added to the already
projected irrigation project in the
western half of the reservation.
known as the Strawberry valley pro-
ject. The lands desired by the re
clamation service in all the eastern
end of the reservation are all com
parative near Fort Duchesne. One
tract lies between the Duchesne river
and Lake creek and Dry gulch. eN-
tending well up to the Fort Duchesne
military reservation, and there is al
so strip lying from the southeast
of the fort along the Duchesne river
which the reclamation folks wish to
obtain.
There now appears to be no doubt
that the department will approve of
suggestions made by the reclamation
service to withdraw these lands for
the purpose of creating reservoir sit
es, which will eventually greatly aid
those who may secure homesteads
through the opening to settlement of
the Utntah reservation.
