MAKING IMPROVEMENTS
Shaws Hot Springs to Have Modern

Senator Dangberg spent yesterday
in this city, and while here made ar
rangements for several improvements
at Shaws Hot Springs. Among the
new things at the springs will be
an electrically driven pump. This will
furnish cold water for the place. rhe
work will be finished the coming
week.
He also intends placing an auto in
to service between this city and the
springs. This will give the patrons
but few minutes ride between the
points and render a great deal of com.
fort to those who wish to hurry mat
tiers.
AS for the main Improvements, they
are still being figured on, but Fred
gives it out that some radical changes
are to be made and that the grounds
and the houses are to be made over to
such an etent that the old visitors VII

IN FROM MANHATTAN
One Of the Original DISCOVERIES in
This City.

sbS WY
Frank Humphrey, one of the origin
al discoveries of Manhattan, and one
of the owners of several of the pest
properties in the camp, is spending
few days in this city, as the guest Of
State Printer Maute. His family
came with him and will remain some
time in this city
Mr.. Humphres is well known here
where he has visited on several Deco
sions, and since the discovery Of Man-
haitian his name is connected with
every movement of the camp. In
speaking of the place he says:
Manhattan is certainly a wonde--
full city, as it has passea the length
and breadth Of a town. People con-
tinue to come in, and most of them
stay. New strikes are being made
daily, and some of them of a sensa-
tional nature. Some wonderful ore
bodies are being shown up, and while
the original ground, the Seyler- Hurl-
phrev, is proving that it goes down.
yet there are other claims coming to
the fore and show that the mineral Is
well distributed in the section.
In the late spring. or as soon as
the snow if off the SUBMITS and the
North hill-sides, the true character OF
the section will then be shown to
the world. We all look forward for
the real rush at that time and from
