two, Mrs. Hoppe and Miss Tanner,
whose destination was Salt Lake City,
one Mrs. J. r. White. who vas to
visit her daughter, who lad recent
ly married and was living in Paonia,
Gunnison county, Colorado, and the
remaining two, Miss May ". Maddox
and Miss Allie Keeling. whose ulti-
mate destination was Alaska.
No stops were made until Salt Lake
City was reached, though at Denver
the party vas met by Mrs. Custer
and Mrs. Cleeg and right happy, too,
were the travellers to see them.
At Colorado Springs, Mrs. Eta
S%choenheit and othair met them and
surely the meeting was one of mutu-
al pleasure.
On reaching salt Lake City, the.
mer Falls City lady, and were de
lightfully entertained at dinner, af-
ter which they all went out to Salt
air for the evening,
The next morning, Thursday, Miss
Maddox and Miss Keeling went to
the station and there found Louie
Hahn. a former Burlington agent in
this city. Mrs. Hahn joined the
ladies at twelve o'clock on a sight
seeing trip around the city, which in
cluded among other interesting things,
4nnCtaal at tho Norman tnmnIn
where the world famous pipe organ
was heard.
There was probably not an old
friend or acquaintance in Falls City
that Mr.. and Mrs. Hahn did not in
quire about, for Falls City seems
still to hold a prominent place in
their memory, and a warm spot in
their hearts.
Leaving Salt Lake at six o'clock
in the evening after the farewells to
the Falls City friends, the next point
to be made was Portland, but owing
to several hours delay in arrival at
Portland the stop could not be made,
as the ladies were due In Tacoma
Saturday afternoon.
In Tacoma the ladies were enter
tanned by Rev. J. w. Miller, a neph-
ew of Mrs. Margaret Maddox, and
well known to many Falls City peo-
pie.
Sunday was a quiet, restful day,
such as could well be enjoyed after
six days almost constant travel. Elk
cept when attending Rev. Miller's
church, the day was passed in
feasting the eyes upon the beautiful
views surrounding Tacoma.
Monday and part of Tuesday was
spent on the Exposition grounds,
But little need be said of the Fair;
they are all alike and when one has
seen one. they have seen all, with
perhaps a few variations.
Tuesday evening the ladies went
to the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Albert
Zimmerman. Mrs. Zimmerman was
formerly Miss Nellie Candy of Hum
boldt, and has many friends in this
city, VINO Keep Tor her Il cherished
place in their hearts.
The hospitality of these friends
was purely a personal matter, and
suffice to say they were royalty en-
%tertained, until they took their boat
on the eleventh of August, for Alaska
On the afternoon of August 18th,

Cottage City" an excursion boat
plying between Seattle and Skagway.
There were a hundred and twenty-five
passengers aboard, from almost ev-
cry state in the Union. and many
different countries. Charming people
they were, indeed. 1t would be hard
to imagine Il more %congenial BOAT
family. Artists, musicians, lawyers,
doctors, truly people of culture and
refinement, all ON pleasure bent, with
but one object to enjoy themselves
aud helm others to do the Same.
The first port the Cottage City"
made was Prince Rupert, an English
port of about eighteen hundred in
habitants and the only English port
entered on the trip, They arrived
here about 1900 o'clock am Friday,
August 10.
About two years ago the town was
plated and laid out into town lots,
but were not sold until last May,
when they were auctioned off, the
most of them bringing $4,000. Prince
Rupert will be the terminal of the
Canadian Grand Trunk Line,
though it will be two years before it
is completed.
The mex stop was Ketchikan
which was reached about five O'Clock
