FOIl SAMS REAL I3STATH.
THERE arc several properties now offered
for sale In Omaha on which the p'urchaser
would make a profit of some thousands of
dollars nsi soon ns the title Is conveyed
the difference between what the property
In worth and what the owner Is compelled
to sell it for.
It's Just that difference- that has made many
a fortune in Omaha ; there never was so
good a time to take advantage of It ns
now.
Our Judgment of what property Is really
worth ns compared with the asking price
hai been tested enough times by Investors
to be trusted now.
FOR EXAMPLE.
Wo nro asked by a western estate to sell
four honestly built modern dwellings ,
renting for nigh $1,600 a year , nt a figure
that will pay you 10 per cent on the In
vestment. The location nnd accessibility
are the very bcPt , with asphaltum paved
streets all around. $15,000 Is the asking
price , which represents Just about the cost
of the Improvements. Wo will recommend
a further whittling down of the price by n
thousand or two , nnd It nn offer ot that
sort Is accepted the investment will pay
you close to 10 per cent net. This prop
erty has been under our personal observa
tion since the Improvements were com
pleted , some seven years now , nnd we unhesitatingly -
hesitatingly recommend it as a good thing.
.The terms ot purchase are easy.

No. 10 This school has a more systemat
ical nnd practical method of teaching
"touch typewriting" than nny other
school In the United States. Our teach
ers orlKinated the system nnd other
schools by the score are Inquiring about
it. They must adopt it or become back
numbers ; for this method of teaching has
come to stay. The business men of
Omaha will hereafter give touch opera
tors the preference , for they are the best
and can turn off more work In n day than
the sight operators. It will pay any ono
to call and see how we have revolution
ized the old method of teaching. We can
show you operators which will astonish
you. Several of the leading schools In
the east have adopted our method of
teaching touch typewriting.
Some of the largest schools In Now York ,
St. Louis and Chicago are now using It.
Wo will start a new class In typewriting
the first Monday In December. If you are
going to become a stenographer It will
be wlso to attend a school whoso stu
dents nre sought by business men , whose
teachers are not charlatans , whoso
methods nre progressive and up-to-date
and whose opportunities of placing you In
a position , when ready , are flrst-clnsB.

PASCO , Wash. , Oct. 31. Have > ou , gentle -
tlo reader , over walked six miles "over a
skid road In the Cascade range of mountains
In the state of Washington ? If you have , I
afti euro It must have been long years ago ,
because otherwise you would not be gentle ,
but wild , for walking over a skid road In
the Casrndcs has n tendency to make n
sucking dove wilder than a hen with four
teen chickens.
lo ) you know what a skid road Is ? Not
an ordltiary skid road , but a Cascade range
skid road , No ? Well , let mo explain , A
skid by the dictionary definition , Is a log or
timber laid lengthwise onhlch heavy ar
ticles may bo transported ( or "skidded" In
the vernacular ) and a skid road should there
fore bo 0110 * somewhat similar Iu effect to an
ordinary railroad ; but Cascade range skid
roads are not constructed according to other
plans and th'a logs are laid crossways of the
road nnd at Intervals of , sny , five to six
feet. The roadbed Is unadulterated mud , nnd
the logs frcen ten to twelve Inches In di
ameter sink Into this about six Inches , so
that the horses dragging the usual skid
sleds , long , slender , low-runnered affairs ,
may stc ? between them and keep the mud
thoroughly soft and well-churned. On a new
road , that le , one made In virgin soil , this
process usually establishes a depth of from
ten" to twelve Inches of mud , and ns It
rains more or less every month In the west-
above trcea and torrents nnd skids and mud
tonercd the gray-rocked gan teeth ami
needles of the Cascades , the roughest moun
tains on earth ,
We reached the Golden Tunnel camp In
Salmon basin at 11 o'lock , alter three hours
of steady but slippery going , and there they
shoncxi us dinner , ' close at hand , and far
up the mountain , at the head of the basin ,
a tiny black line across a field of sno.v ,
which they told us was n part of the trail
leading to the cave of gold Htelf , Indis
tinguishable on the face of a gigantic ell IT ,
which seemed to rise straight up to the
sky. Hut It was the cave of gold v > c had
como to tec , far caves of gold nre scarce
except In books of fairy talcs , nnd we wore
not to deterred by a little thing like nu
Impossibility , so as teen ns we had eaten
\\o took our alpenstocks In our tumls nnd
began to climb. For a half mlle \\o fol
lowed a skid trail , till It suddenly stopped
at nu ore dump , and then wo went cquaro
out upon n huge rock slide nnd picked our
way carefully across for nearly a quarter
of a mlle to a tangled thicket , beyond t
which wcro moro rooks and then a field of
Let me stop hero long enough to say that
these lock slides , whllo ordinal lly safe
enough , arc often the most serious danger
of mountain climbing. As the numo Indi
cates , they are slides of reck which do not
seem to come from anywhere but have nl-
wnys a greftt supply of rocks of all sizes ,
as If nature had made their particular lo
cation her rock dump , Intending to make a
fill across the valley , but never getting fur
ther than the foot of the mountain. Those
rocks on nn Incline of15 degrees , will Ho
quietly reposing until an unwary foot starts
one rolling , or n gun shot or even a shout ,
jars ono from Its place and then woo to
the unlucky climber who Is out on the
elide , for ho must be nctlvo indeed If he
escapes bruises or n broken limb from the
boulders which como bouncing and jumping
and ( lying down upon him. These slides do
not become moving masses as are ava
lanches sweeping everything down with
them ; they are merely covered \vlth loose
stonca which come rolling down by twoes
or threes or tens or scores as the dlsturb-
for all ths ! rock was rich In the precious
metal. They were taking It out In tin
buckctfula nnd sending It down the moun
tain 2,600 feet on a wire that looked Hko a
silken gcesamer swung over the valley , with
shining buttercups dancing down Its length ,

The cnve was In fact tie more than a
great hole , worn by the weather In a vertical
strip of this grainy , soft rock , 2,500 feet from
top to bottom , wedged In between the granlto
vails of the mountain" . How long It had
steed them open-mouthed , breathing In the
air of the hills that was wearing out Its
tissues , before some curious and advent
urous prospector had noticed It nnd climbed
to Itn ccrlo no man could sny , nor did any
man care to waste time In vain calculations ,
for the s'oft earthy rock that It contained
held golil , nnd gold was what men sought ,
regardless of how or wlun It came. All
about us. to the right and to the left , over
our heads nnd under our feet , trodden there
like common dirt , was this pale gray crumbling -
} ling stuff , in some places almost brown , and
wo looked at It as critically and toswd It
about ns one might toss potatoes In a patch.
Yet itaa rich in gold ; testa had proved
that Its vnluo varied from flO to $10,000 a
ton nnd thcro was 70,000 tons of It In tight
In the mountain , worth on nn average $30
a ton. Probably nowhere else In the world
Is there such a cave and when Its lucky
find CM hnvo opened Its treasures to the light
and dropped Us wealth from the clouds to
the coffers of earth , n etory will bo told of
the riches of the Cascade range as the people
of other times told the tale of Qolconda's
glory and still further back the poets sang
of the waters of Pnctolus that dripped golden
drops from yellow sands.
We did not linger long In the cave , for
the shadows wcro coming down between
the lofty mountain tops and once moro
laying our hands upon the richness every
where , Just to say we were in touch with
wealth , we took ourselves awny and started
on our downward course. There arc those
who prefer to ascend a mountain , and It
Is no doubt less Jolty to the human nnat-
omy than Jumping from crag to crag Ilk *

orn Cascades , thla mud never has the. water
sufficiently squeezed out of It to coavc
It , Into dust. To add still further to tl
pedestrian's pleasure the skids are alwaj
kept well-greased to facilitate the passage
of the sleds , and if the walker can keep his
feet under him , when ho most needs them
there , then Indeed is he an expert. Why
lot rldo on the sleds , you ask ? Well , If
you should see one o'f those sleds sliding
from ono side of the road to the other and
switching around like the cracker of a whip
you would not ask the question. Wo might ,
have gone on horseback , but there were no
horses except such as were otherwise en
gaged , BO wo walked. We rose 1,000 feet In
walking the six miles too , nnd that did not
make our task easier or our burdens
lighter. '
But wo were bound for a cave of gold
in the mountains and who thinks of effort
with such a dazzling goal before him ?

lluril .Mountain ClIuiltliiK.
Beyond the rock came the snow and there
was a big crevasse In It which necessitated
a trip down the mountain to get around it ,
and then moro rock nnd moro enow nnd we
struck the real climbing. Hero we stopped
to look down the valley upon a double line
of mountains , clear cut against the sky , In
places again cutting the white clouds like
epear points and presenting a magnificent
beauty of mountain scenery which I have
not seen excelled outside of the Cascade
range.
The trail leading up from the snow was
narrow and soft , hedged in by thickets
whoso limbs and branches aided greatly In
climbing , and after enough of it to make
us almost forswear the gold standard nnd
ncippt free silver , or hay , or oats , or gar-
dpn eass , wo came up over a rock slide
onto a hogback , a narrow ridge of rock
stuck onto the mountain side at Intervals
with no other apparent purpose than to
make the climbing moro dlfllcult , and had
our first view of the cave of gold. It was
far above usiln the face of the cliff , 'but
In plain eight , and wo went on and on , up
and up , till wo reached the tents of ihe
miners , hung there like the nests of blids
among the pine trees that fasten their roots
among the rocks.
"What a tremendous climb It was ! Three
hours of constant going and yet , when wo
looHed down and down to the camp where
wo had dinner It seemed scarcely a stone's
throw away. But wo were tenderfeet and
the veterans who greeted us as wo stopped
to take breath before the- final climb
laughed at us. They had prospected over
all thcBo mountains and our climb was
nothing to speak of ; they told us , too , of
how only the day before ono of their num
ber , weighing 180 pounds , had had his leg
broken by a rolling rock and eight of them
had carried him down the trull wo had
Just como over and delivered him safely
In the valley. But afterwards those who
had carried him told us that It was the
most difficult and trying mountain work
they had ever undertaken and that the
suffering of their helpless burden was piti
ful as they swung him around jutting crags ,
lifted him up and down the cliffs and
clipped and fell with him over the rugged
rocks and along the strep Inclines , holdIng -
Ing the litter with ono hand and clinging
to roots or branches with the other ,
In ( lie Cnviat Ciii111.
Up in the final crags wo went at last and
then wo stood in the very mouth of the cave
of gold and looked outward Into the blue
distance stretching far away below u and
before us upon a whole world ready and will
ing and waiting to undertake any hazard , to
undergo any hardship If It may , to sccuro
the precious metal stored hero by nature'a
own hand. But the ehlno of the yellow
gold did not dazzle our eyes , nor were wo
ntruck speechless with amazcmant at the
wondrous wonlth about us , On the contrary -
trary , wo didn't tco anything much , but the
peculiar geological formation of a cave In the
face of a mountain not otherwise cavernous
and It was just a dark Inside as cavca
usually are. Wo looked about us for
tangible proof of the tales that had been told
to us and wo began to net aoldo the romance
that always hedges gold as divinity doth a
king and get at the practical aide of things.
What \V9 had found was a cave seventy feet
high at Us entrance and twenty odd feet
wide , extending back Into the darknrsa for
fifty feet op more. Its aides were the hard
rock of the mountain , but Ita locf , Ho Jloor
and IU back was a grayish white granular
culotanco , a crces hi appearance between
line clay and spoiled cheese , and no eof ( that
a ( pick could bo stuck into It anywhere.
ChmikH o ! It had fallen doiyn from the
'tool and aldcH as If decay were far gene In
Ita.vork . of disintegration , On thu floor of
the cave this clay or "rock , " In the technical ,
had been crushed Into a granular dual that
could ho shoveled out. Back some distance
the cove forked and In the two apartments
thus formed the men had made beds and
wcro literally Bleeping in chambers of gold ,
a mountain goat , but I am fully convinced
for my own part that If I could get to the
top of a mountain by turning it upside
down that would most assuredly too the
way I would take to get there. How we.
did como down that mountain ! Carefully' '
enough over the rock slides , but by leaps j
nnd bounds where the trail was soft , and ]
when wo struck the snow what a toboggan , ,
slldo it made with the reinforced scat ot
a pair of corduroy trousers for the toboggan. '
Not every man In the United States , was
enjoying a slide In snow twenty feet deepen
on that October day and It was almost a
temptation to go back again and take an
other , but wo resisted and hurried on to
camp , where we stretched ourselves on the
cots In a tent nnd for the first time wo
realized that even the search for gold could
not bo followed as wo had followed It that
( lay without making the searchers tired ,
nnd very tired. That night we slept In a
tent on which the rain fell softly , but wo
needed no lullaby and so sound was our
sleep that not oven a dream of wealth
came to disturb us.
The next day wo walked that six miles
of skid again , going away from the gold
that waited In tbo mountains' for other
hands to carry it away , and the walking
was confounded rough.
