 After due investigation Congress took possession of the springs in the year 1892, and 1t retained around them a reservation ample to protect there from all eneroachments. 1t was the first national park reservation of the country.
 They are set apart by this act as "A National Sanitarium for all tim y and dedicated to the people of the United States to be observed free from sal or alienation"
 In the year 1904 the State Legisla- ture passed an act granting the gen. eral government exclusive jurisdiction and sovereignty aver the reservation, since which time the government has made rules and restrictions for hose who dispense the waters an dpractice in connection with the mthat have re- suited in much better service to the sick.
 Government Improvements

 The mountain side for distance several hundred feet has been beautl fully parked and planted to shrubbery and climbing vines and flowers. The Grand and other entrances to the res ervation are works or great architec- tural beauty.
 The most important improvement to Hot Springs made by the government ls the system of driyeways and walks on the three mountains comprising the reservation. They wind around the sides of the mountain by easy grades to the summlts of five or SIX

The Hot Springs
 of Ark0nSdS

The legendary history of Hot Springs is as romantic as its history is interesting since the time the first white man is known to have visited here. It is believed that these ther- nal springs were the ones sought for as the Fountain of Perpetual Youth by Ponce de Leon, one Of the early Spanish explorers, though in vain.
 De Soto is given the first credit of discovering Hot Springs and it is quite certain that he and his explor- ing army spent the winter of 1541-42 here, while directing a search for the fountain of youth as well as for gold. Translated writings of cavaliers, who were with the expedition, mentions discovering hot lakes. As there are no hot lakes in this part of America, 1t is certain that this is the place re- ferred to, as up to the time the gov ernment began to make improvements, the steaming hot water poured down the mountain side, forming large pools or lakes of hot water. The process also formed a deposit called tuba, in- cruising the moumain slope.
 The hot springs were as celebrated among the Indians for curative prop critics as now with civilization. They believed the Great Spirit breathed a healing power into the waters, and the savage breast was filled with such sacred awe that in the vallew was i'm munity from harm and strife. A great deal of truth is attacned to this beautiful tradition, as early French trappers and settlers dwelt here in ..tte T.,4s ~l,l
 The Early Settlers.
 The first person to settle at Hot Springs was Manuels Frudhomme, a Louiciana planter, in 1S07 In 1911 he was joined by John Percival and Isaac Gates. In 1920 Joseph Mellard built a double log cabin and this was the first structure that could be termed a hotel. In 1928 Ludonicus Bedding settled nere, put up the first store and showed great enterprise in build ing improved cabins In 1880 Asa Thompson leased the springs and erected the first bath houses.
 The Hot Springs of Today.
 Can truly be called a City of Hotels and Bath Houses. No other resort is so well equipped to care for the sick and afflicted as well as pleasure seekers. Several of IS big hotels are considered among the largest and most palatial in the world, and its hotel facilities are ample to accommo date its yearly increase of visitors.

SECOND BlOWUP IN TWO WEEKS
Debris From Former Explosion Not
Yet Cleared Away-Work of
Rescue Abandoned.

BLUEFIELDS, Jan. 12.-An ex-
plosion of gas in the. Lick Branch
colliery today snuffed out the lives
of between 60 and so persons. In
the same mines two weeks ago to-
day, SO miners were Killed by SIM
liar explosion. A sound like thunder
reverberated along the miles of cor
ridors and air passages crowded with
those at work in the mine. From
the mouth of the mine belched forth
a great volume of flame. SCOT, dust
and debris. The terroriZed women
and children rushed to the mine
mouth and implored those there to
allow them to aid in the effort to
save their loved ones, who might
still be alive within.
A. rescue party rushed into the
mines and tried to rescue a miner
who had been hurled back by the
blast. They were driven back by the
deadly fumes of after gas and were
compelled to leave the unfortunate
man to his fate. The debris from the
explosion of two weeks ago had not
been cleared away and 90 men were
engaged in this work.
The explosion was in a different
part of the mine from that Of two
weeks ago. Since that catastrophe
the mine had been inspected by gov
eminent officials and by the most eX-
perienced men in the region and all
it is said, pronounced X, in their opin-
ion, safe.

A CONVICT
ON PAROLE
Several Stores Secure Paper Which
Is Returned by Bank AS Being
Fraudulent.

Reports were made to Sheriff Ian
caster on Tuesday afternoon that sev-
eral forged checks, bearing the name
Of s. s. Lewis and clever limitations
Of that mans handwriting, had been
accepted in North Yakima stores and
had been pronounced forgeries by
the Yakima Valley bank. at which
Lewis is deposition
The accusation of forgery is made
against young man named Graham,
a paroled convict who was sentenced
to II years in the penitentiary. How
ever, this accusation has not been
backed by any warrant issue and no
arrest has been made. Graham. who
formerly lived in North Yakima be-
fore being sent to Walla Walla. has
been about the city but disappeared
several days ago. Indications are
that the man who forged the checks
did not receive total OF over a hun
dred dollars, four checks being the
number so far reported.
The Pang cigar store and the Sloan
drug store were two of the establish
ments that cashed cecks bearing
Lewis signature and payable to Ora
