THE BOUNDLEss WEST.
Some Things Observed by "a Journey to
tho Coast-The Land of Flowers.

the Coast-The Land of Flowers.
We found Capt. Lucas and wife at
Santa Cruz, happy and contented in
beautiful little home-and in one of
the prettiest and most thriving little
cities ON the coast. They took us for
drive all about the place and along
the beach, which was greatly enjoyed.
Here is where one sees those gigantic
redwood trees-such monsters of tho
forest that one can scarcely realize
that they grew, or that they we're ever
small But there they are, 15 to 40
feet in diameter and SO tall that you
have to look few times before you are
satisfied that its all one tree.
San Francisco is to the Pacific coast
what New York is to the east. 1t is a
great city, with numerous attractive
surroundings. A trip to Mt. Tamalpais
from San Francisco is a wonderful eX-
perience, by steamer across the bay
and an eight mile climb up the mount
ain over ''the crookedest railroad in
the world" The scenery is grand,
very similar to a trip through the Black
Hills, but the crowning glory OF the
trip-at least to one who is familiar
with such natural beauty as is found
i'm the Black Hills-is the view of the
surrounding landscape from the top of
the mountain, taking in the bay, the
ocean, the many cities of that part of
state, the charming valleys, the mount
aims i'm the distance, the steamers and
ships passing through the Golden Gate
and out upon the broad ocean.
With all of its attractions California
has its draw awbacks-though it is pretty
difficult for visitor to find out what
ence them upon his visit 1t is of
course largely an arid state and there
fore dried up a larger portion of the
year, excepting where they irrigate.
The sameness of the temperature-in-
clined to be cool rather than hot along
the coasts complained of by some.
The dust during larger portion of the
year outside of the cities is also much
complained Of Then the pesky little
fieas make life burden to the thin
skinned i'll some portions of she state.
And after all people have the troubles
and trials of life, and death, the same
there as elsewhere, and find that hap
piness is not wholly in the surround
ings and environment of nature. But
it is different from most any othei
state and therefore interesting and de
: lightful in many ways. The state il
pretty thoroughly developed and there
fore does not offer the inducements t.
the homesecker that other portions o
the west DO, though commercially an
!, iudustrially it appears to be in a pros
porous condition and capital and labo
: both are apparently sought and profit
ably employed.
= = With the marvelonsly low rates oife
~ ed eNcursionists, and with the magni!
y cent railroad facilities now given,
- trip to California is not what it was
- few years ago and is a journey til,
will never be regretted or forgotten.

MILWAUKEE TO BUILD
Colonel Hunter Gives Facts Relative to
Black Hills Extension and the
Line to the Coast.


Line to the Coast.
ii. Il. Hunter, of the c., M. q st. L.
railway, was in Aberdeen Monday night
on his way to Chamberlain from his
big cattle ranch in Campbell county.
says the Aberdeen News. Mr.. Hunter,
as is we'll known, has done all of the
preliminary work in securing right OF
way and the like for every extension
the Milwaukee has made since he has
been connected with the road. He has
been the advance guard of the road and
is thoroughly in touch with all OF the
company's plans.
"For The first time in my life," Mr..
Hunter said, 81 am going to submit to
newspaper interview and will tell the
News all know about the railroad
situation. In the first place, the Mil
waukee feels very friendly toward
South Dakota because of the fair and
conservative attitude this state has
taken toward railroads in general and
our road In particular. While the roads
are made the butts of politics in other
states in Wisconsin, for instance
the people of South Dakota have ac-
corded us the same general good treat
ment that they have extended to all
other business interests OF the state.
believe it is largely for this reason
Il ,3ni to ON
tend it's South Dakota lines in prefer
ence to making extensions in other
states that in other respects offer good
advantages in the way of business.
"Yes. you may tell the readers of the
News that il the Milwaukee extends tc

will be built from lIvarts. The Cham
berlain extension into Lyman county
is not meant for coast line. we are

that this old survey will be followed

NOTED ARCHITECT
GUEST AT DINNER
Charles z. .McKina Is Greeted by Citizens Inter
estfd In City's .4dornDaent

Charles Follen McKim, who modest
ly bears the reputation of being
Americas most noted architect and
who has gained. considerable distinc-
ton abroad, was guest of honor at
a dinner given at the ST Francis Hotel
last evening by Architect D. H. Burn
ham of Chicago, who invited to assist
him in entertaining Mr.. McKim about
forty of San Franciscos citizens that
are prominently identified with the
movement to beautify the city.
Mr.. McKim, upon whom King Edward
of England two years ago bestowed a
royal gold medal for his part in the
promotion of architecture, and who
is also president of the American In
stitute of Architects, is visiting San
Francisco principally for the purpose
of viewing Architect Burnham's partly
completed plans for the city's adorn-
ment, and this fact suggested to Archi-
tect Burnham the idea of giving San
Francisco's citizens, who are promot-
ing the splendid project, an opportun-
ity of meeting the distinguished
visitor. Among those who enjoyed this
privilege at last nights dinner were
the following:

QUESTION LEoNA BROOKS.

Grand Jurors Think She Knows
Where Smith Hid Money.
Leona Brooks, the woman who fed
with the defaulting Tax Collector, Ed
ward J. Smith, was given a severe
sweating before Foreman Andrews and
E. ]. Bowes of the Grand Jury last
night. r. W. Smith and F. L. Gilbert
of the National Surety Company were
present during the interview. The four
men are firm in the belief that the
woman knows where the defaulter has
cached his loot, and relentless effort
was made to force the woman to reveal
the secret

how much money he had. If he had
any large amount ] don't know what

For three hours the woman was on

wrung from her. If she does know

beautifying of municipalities and it
was with view of encouraging ideas
in this regard that he organized an in
stitution in Italy, to which this coun-
try annually sends twelve students,
who. upon their graduation, it is hoped
by the founder of the school, will
exert their influence toward promot-
ing schemes for beautifying the cities
of their native land. AT the beginning
of his undertaking Architect McKim
figured that it would require at least
100000 and he has already raised
100000 of that amount.
Yesterday Mr.. McKim accompanied
Architect Burnham to the latter
bungalow on the summit of Twin
Peaks, where he was afforded a mag
nificent view of San Francisco while
he carefully studied the plans of the
city's adornment which are being
worked out on that elevation under
the direction of Architect Burnham.

Foreman Andrews proved yesterday
the statements he made in his open

lector's Office, the Auditors Office and
the Treasurer's Office before the
