OLD RACE FEELING RETURNS.
Later some of the expressions of
good will between the people of dif-
ferent beliefs abated. Some of the
Armenians and some of the Dinses
began purchasing arms which
the previous laws prohibited No

would find the old flint lock fire

BERLIN AND DRESDEN.
April 6 to 2T--Thls period we passed
in Berlin, with a side trip to Dresden,
where the picture gallery is voted the
most complete yet seen in Europe.
Here, too, we witnessed a performance
OF Richard Strauss new opera "Elek-
ira" 81 most wonderful creation. pro-
duced in an oper:, house which has few
suneriors in Germany.
In Berlin our time was largely de-
voted to sight seeing,tsa pleasant part
OF our visit being with Emma Lucy
Gates, an account of whose debut in
the Royal Opera House has already
been sent to the News" After her
two performances we enjoyed several
apcnics with her into the delightful
country around Berlin, the first at Pots
DAM founded by Frederick the Great,
and still filled with relics and memen-
toes of his reign, and the second to the
tomb OF Mendelssohn, where we catch

Berlin impresses us more than any
other European city for its cleanliness,
good order, reasonable living prices,
wonderful hotel facilities, etc. 1t is
said that the city's population is now
running towards the three million point,
and that over $500 lodging houses and
hotels We're built last year.
Another pleasant experience in Berlin
was found in attending the conference

NORTH PARK is GARDEN SPOT

North Park, Colorado, is making a
desperate struggle this winter to have
the legislature set the Park off to itself
as county. Laramie is so near to this
section that it will have an interest to
s,e that section of country grow and
prosp r. and while it is not the province
of outsiders to mix in sucha contest as
is going on, we do feel like saving a
word favorable to the division some
times
North Park is the richest in natural
resources of any section of country in
the west of equal portions, if those who
have Investigated and made COMPARE
sions know what they are talking about,
and tell the truth. Ii is into this section
that the Laramie Hahn's Peak & Pacific
railroad is delving and no sooner will
this road have tapped the inexhaustible
coal fields of that wonderful region
than coal will drop in price nearly one.
half in Laramie. We will then also be
in touch with the other resources of
country now SO famous, much to the
of this town and county in
very many ways
TIL, sc are few of the reasons why it
behooves the people of Laramie to keep
in touch with North Park, and in every
legitimate way help the good people
there to accomplish anything that is to
their advantage.

KEEP At 1T

In every country town there is sign
at the rail road crossing like this: Look
out for the cars" Now everybody
knew that it was railroad crossing the
day the line was laid and finished.
When the sign was put up it took two
days for every inhabitant to become
familiar with it. Ina week every small
child could read it backward. Did the
railroad take it down? No, if they had
the warning would have been forgotten
in week and smashups and damage
suits would have resulted. One time
advertisements act the same way You
must keep everlastingly at it, like the
