ID EVOLVE \ BEAUTY SPOT
 FROM 4 TANGLED WILDERNESS

Her idea contemplates the cree tion of tourist hotel equal, if not larger, fin size than the Pullen Housa; the building and furnishing ready for occupancy of numerous sIGall cottages for rent to people who iltead remaining for a time and would like more privacy than they could find In a hoteli the cul- tivation of big farm, where she will raise all kinds of garden truck, strawberries, gooseberries, rasp- berries, currants, etc, for her own consumption as well as a surplus large enough to supply the Skagway market; the raising of horses, cat tie hogs, chickens, ducks and geese; a dairy outfit; the raising of hay and grain to feed the live stock; the installation of water system. the connection of the farm w;sh Skagway by telephone; the building of landing at the beach; the putting in Of a nine hole golf course, covering a distance or 3.GNG yards, and a tennis. court; and later, when she has fully demonstrated the feasibility of her plan, and her ability to put it through successfully, she will ap- ply to the government for aid i'll building wagon-road over the five miles of low divide intervening be- tween Skagway and Dyea.
 Mrs. Pullen's idea is to provide "a place for the entertain ment of the public general ly, but more particularly the people of wealth who are turning their eyes Alaskaward more and more every year. A place where they will be supplied with every II odern convenience and comfort; where they will be in close touch with the doings of the outside world, yet net disturbed by it's activities, and where they may be as secluded as they desire.
 She mas already commenced on the herculean task which she has assigned herself. and has 40 acres ill oats and barley, which are almost ready to cut; and a field of hay from which she expects to get 300 tons. Of live stock she has six cows and four calves, four horses, several pigs, and lot of chickens, ducks and geese, and will keep add ing to the number until she gets as many as she can look after pro- perly.
 Instead of tearing down and re- moving the buildings that were erected in Dyea in the early days, 1t is Mrs. Pullen's intention to pre- serve them as far as possible in all their picturesque dilapidation as a reminder of the Klondike rush and of q time that truly tried mems souls.

The fame of the Pullen House, Skagway, Gs a place Of public enter tainment has become worldwide under the efficient management. of is proprietor, Mrs. H. s. Pullen, ardmany people distinguished for tlcir mental attainments, as well as ttCse who are equally well known for their wealth, have rested be- meath it's roof and pertaken of. it's bOunteous hospitalities while tour ing for knowledge and pleasure the vast empire that is now but in the making.
 Not satisfied with the wonderful growth which this enterprise of her own conception has made since she first started to carve it's future out of it's crude surroundings of the frontier wilderness, Mrs. Pullen now seeks an outlet for tne expansion of her superabundant energies in ne cOnquering of another wilder ness, just as wild aud unbroken as the enc she has already subdued, ind which she will likewise seek to make blossom aS the rose.
 A short time ago we announced her purchase of the Ernest Richter farm Of 16O acres located at Dyea, aud now we have to chronicle the requirement by her of the Emil Elatt place, also comprising 16O acres, and adjoining her former pur- case, which will practically. make her tle sole owner of the entire townsit6 Of Dyea, and with only one ueighhor in the entire Dyea valley. viz. a man named Matthews, who has taken up a homestead about a mile and a half north Of Mrs. Pullen's holdings.
 In addition to purchasing the rights of Richter. and Klatt to the 320 acres above described Mrs. Pullen last week went to Juneau and filed on the land as a home stead and today, gathering her per sonal effects together, she left for her possessions, where she will mak her home until the property is patented, although she has a fine motor launch and will spend a go d deal of her time in looking after her business in Skagway until the arrival of her son Royal from Dawson, about the 1st of July, when she will turn the management of tn Skagway branch of her business over 10 him and devote her entire attention to a scheme that has been growing more clearly defined in her mind for years until it has finally reached a point where she can see the way clear to its con-
