Explorers.
To reach American most wonderful table
land by wire tram from the depths of the
Grand Canyon of the Colorado Is the plan
of a corporation, the engineers of which
have already the ground for the under
taking. On the north' side of the great gorge,
Its own cliff sides rising sheer above the
surrounding desert, the Kaibab plateau lifts
high toward Arizona's cloudless eky. In
accessible, abounding tn game, the plateau
remains a land of mysteries In the midst
of the baked alkali plains.
Tears ago In a company which Included
John W. Young, son of Brlgham Young,
a promoter of the Shipbuilding Trust,
Colonel William F. Cody visited the plateau
and he saw Its wonders. His horse walked
ankle deep In the flowers that cover Its
grassy stretches. The old scout stood on
Point Sublime and looked out over the
Canyon of the Colorado. Ue spent two
weeks on the upland's floor. He was the
first to advance the proposition of making
a national park from Kalbab plateau.
The place la so situated that It would be
necessary to run a wire fence around It
for several miles, and game could not leave
nor could other animals come Into It.
Buffalo Bill" and John W. Young talked
of this plan.
Now a movement has been begun, and a
petition will come from Utah and Arlsona
asking that this Improvement be brought
about. With the establishment of the
aerial tramway and the opening of this
wonderland to men who could neves reach
It people realise that Its game and other
treasures muBt be protected.
Heretofore only a few men from the
cities have come to the place. To reach
It they have Journeyed across miles Of
desert. And at the Journey's end they have
ought out canyon mouths, entering which
they have been able to penetrate Into the
Interior of the tableland. But to do this
has always required old guides. Without
some one who knew the country they -would
soon suffer for water and be lost. They
might wander for days and come within a
few feet of the hidden springs without
knowing of their presence.
Aeroaa the Grand Canyon.
This desert Journey Is more than a day In
length. And jet from the railroad across
the gorge to the south you can see Point
Rubllme at the plateau's southern edge.
Between you and the promontory, how
ever, stretch the awful depths of the
Orand Canyon. By throwing a cable across
this the Journey will be accomplished In
a few minutes.
That Journey In Itself will show things
that have never been seen before by man.
Stretching straight across the lower gorge,
at the foot of Bright Angel trail, the tram
way will cross directly above the lashing
river. A short trail will lead to another
tram, which will carry men and women
along the face of sheer cliffs and over
narrow canyons which reach seemingly
into the bowels of the earth to a trail In
the upper canyon. And this trail reaches
the Kaibab plateau.
In the views of the Orand Canyon ob
tained from points accessible from rail
roads men have seen nothing of the gorge
Itself, They have not seen the river only
the silent depths that lead to It. In this
crossing by ropes of steel they will look
straight down upon the mighty stream
and will have revealed before them depths
hitherto hidden from all men.
The tramway proposition has been
financed and the route has been surveyed.
With its establishment the effort to have
a national park made from the Kalbab
plateau will be pushed In congress. v
The Buckskin plateau Is one of Amer
ica' strangest corners. It Is a bit of the
old west. In the midst of the new west,
which has pushed Its way even over the
deserts about It.
. Remote, lnaccesslhle. It has been left
alone by cattlemen and sheep herders. As a
consequence it Is as wild today aa It was
centuries ago, when the Indiana named It
"Kalbab" for the deerhide they got from It.
It Ilea like an enormous hand. Its open
flutters stretching out over the edge of the
monstrous gorge of the Colorado. With the
lofty painted walls of this canyon at Ita
southern edge and its own cliffs rising sheer
from the silent desert, the upland can be
reached only through Its canyons. These
radiate from Its center like spokes to the
rim of a wheel. They are level floored and
their slope Is gentle and even. Up their
bottoms a bicyclist could easily ride.

and at the approach of man such a guard
will always lift Its head, snuffing the
tainted breeie, and whinny an alarm. Then
the herd gallops off Into the next canyon.
Heavy forests cover the plateau. Oak and
pine trees grow to enormous size here. Be

excellent place for camp.
Flowers grow thick In early summer In
all parts of the region. They are not the
flowers Of the desert Which nrrmmH. tk.m
They are mountain' blossoms, harebells,
wua roses ana thin petolled lilies. In the
month of June, when you ride through these
woods and meadows, your horses step ankle
deep In a carpet of primroses pink, rosy,
white and light blue and the fragrance that
rises from the bruised and stirred blossoms
fills the air.
Kanab Is always the point of departure
for those who visit the place. It lies a few
miles north of Utah's southern boundary, a
little old Mormon town, founded years and
years ago by order of Brigham Young. It
Is In the center of a land of mystery. Miles
from the railroads, with the strange natural
bridge country and the canyons and gorges
of unexplored mountain ranges opening to
the west and north. It frequently sees the
departure of such expeditions aa that which
recently visited the Kalbab plateau.
In and near the old town of Kanab you
will find some of the few surviving mem
bers of Brigham Young's Danltes. They
sought out this southern retreat when

Ood coming to them In the wilderness.
The Mormon's Prayer,
It was on of these old Mormons who
when lost with a party of Bait Lake City
men. dropped on his knees to, pray for
water. Ha said:
"Ob, Lord, we era lost and there Is no
water. We are in a tight place and this Is
a case where there can t be any fooling. It
Isn't for myself I care, oh Lord, but I've
got a couple of tenderfeet with me and
they're liable to play out 'moat any time."
He had hardly done with his' prayer when
one of the party who had gone on ahead
returned with news of a big spring. This
man oi me oeaert waa not surprised. He
naa Known rrom the time he dropped on his
knees that water was golna to com.
In hla revelation ,at any rate to forgive the
the tenderfeet In the party had faith enough
reference to themuelvee and their plight.
Boutn of Kanab there la a fort which
these old Mormons built by order of Brig
ham Young. It lies In a little oasis called
Pipe Springs. The limitless, silent desert
surrounds It. It was for years the last
outpost to the southward of the whits race.
In those days- the Navajo Indians used
to sweep out across the desert and drive
before them all the cattle they could stam
pede. "When hard pressed they would turn
the galloping herd's head toward Kaibao
plateau. Running them , up one of the
canyons, they would soon have them safe
from any pursuit.
The fort was built to stop thla. It was
surrounded by a stockade and Its thick
log aldea had nariow loopholes. Here a
Utile band of the old Mormons lived with
no company save themselves and the des.
ert. Twice Indians swept down on the
place and massacred Its garrison, caught
unawares. Each time pew defenders took
the places of the old and the fort still
stood, a menace to wandering banda of
savages. It still stands, weather beaten,
picturesque, the last building you will see
on your Journey to the plateau.
One rldea out Into the heat of the Arl
sona desert. In places forests of giant
cacti stretch gaunt branches upward
toward a pitiless, brasen sky. Again you
look away for miles where the palpted
mesas lUt aides, whose shadowy tints
change as mysteriously as do the tints
of the ocean on a summer day. It Is never
the same, this desert country. Its colors
and Its limitless vistas are always shifting
their tints and outlines.
The Wall on the Banda,
And as you ride to the southward you
see rising a low wall. Its height increases
to your right. It seems to uplift right out
of the alkali sands and point upward. You
can see It half a, day ahead. It Is the wall
of the Kaibab plateau.
Like a gash 1p the face of the cliff a can
yon opens. You travel up this to reach
your goal.
There rs a peculiar feature about these
canyons. If you be on the plateau and
are lost you are sure to strike one of
them. To try to d"scend to the bed Is
futile. The walls are too steep. It would
be hours' work. But follow the general
direction of the canyon's rim and sooner
or later your pony brings you to Pe Mott
park, the center of the plateau.
Traveling up one of these canyons you
do not notice much rise. In fact, you have
noticed no rl" since you left Kanab,
though' you climbed hundreds of feet out
there on the desert. The floor of the can
yon Is covered with springy turf. It is
ievel and hard. It I no exaggeration to
say that a men could easily ride a blcvclo
tiD It. And thus, ascending Imperceptibly,
you climb up. up until you finally reach
the floor of the plateau.
Oreat promontories stretch out Into the
Orand canyon of the Colorado. Point
Sublime is the largest of these. This Is
the point whence the aerlnl tramway Is to
be built. It reaches out, out until It nar
rows down like the point of a wedge, and
standing on Its point you have but a few
Inches of soil beneath your feet if you be
courageous enough to stand. Most people
lie flat and look over. Looking thus you
see things which those who have come by
railroad to the other edge, twelve miles
away, never see. You have a view that
seems limitless.
To this point they purpose to run their
tramway from a point far below. Another
wire will bs thrown from the other side,
where the Blight Angel trail runs down.
It will cross the granite gorge. By these
means, for the trams will carry huge
bucketlike cars, passengers are to be car.
rled across the gorge; then up to this
promontory. Point Sublime. In winter time
they will be thus lifted from hot sunshine
Into snow and Ice. In summer they will
travel from the scorching heat of the desert
Into the cool shades of mountain oaks and
pines. And if the parking project shall be
approved by the government they will go
Into a wonderland or Dig game ana rare
flowers such as no national park today
knows.
From Point Culmer. at the southwest
corner of this Kalbab plateau, comes the
famous view; men claim they can see with
good glasses Into. California from this
promontory. Far to" the westward stretches
mesa after mesa and pinnacle after pin
nacle, their painted tope showing bright
tn the sunshine, their sides losing' them
selves In the murky shadows of the can
yon's depths. These stretch one after the
other with wonderful colored and tinted
vistas between until seemingly at the very
world's rim they lose themselves In shad
owy dun gray shapes, whose fantastlo out
lines change before your eyes. It Is the
longest stretclt of the Colorado's canyon
that can be seen from any place yet
reached by man.
By establishing In the wonderland a na
tional park its beauties will be preserved.
It will remain forever a part of the wild
and rugged west of early days. New York

SEEKING NEW FORTUNE AT 78
Senator Stewart Brglna Asaln at the
Foot of Fortujie'a Ladder
tn Nevada,
Broken In fortune at an age when most
men are preparing to die. Senator William
M. Stewart, the indomitable veteran of
the senate has Just completed a house In
the modest town of Rbyollte. Nev., where
he says he will "begin life all over again."
He haa won and lost several fortunes and
was at one tints accounted among the rich
est men In Washington.
A correspondent of the Philadelphia
North American writes about the change;
Since his retirement from public life last
March, after a service In the upper branch
of congress covering more than forty
years, the world has heard little of Sen
ator Stewart, The newspapers published
dispatches to the effect that he waa ones
more a poor man and that he would make
his residence In the wes. Then they for
got all about him.
To lose a fortune Is a serious enough
misfortune at any period of life, and at
Senator Btewart's age (78) it is almost
without exception a crushing blow. The
fact that It has not proved so In his case
may be becauae he is used to losing for
tunes and making them, or It may be be
cause he Is not like other men.
Senator Stewart, the title will always
stick to him ejipeets to move Into his new
home In a few days. When he started to
build It, down in the Bullfrog district, the
townspeople, who knew his record for
gaiety In the east, said:
We're glad to have you with us. Sen
ator; but what are you doing way down
here in this lonely place?"
'Oh, I'm Just going to get back among
the boys for a while," answered the old
man, straightening his six feet of stature
and throwing back his broad shoulders.
"This air makes me feel Ilka a 4-year-old.
There's no place like Nevada, I tell you,
and I figure that I'll be doing a big law
business hers before long. Better to wear
out than to rust out, you know."
His new house cost 120,000. That Is more
than he was believed to have saved out of
the wreck wtlen the model dairy farm in
Virginia put the last touches on a finan
cial ruin that waa begun when ha tried
to force a real estate boom in the direc
tion of "Stewart's Palace," the gorgeous
structure ha put up In Washington at a
time when hs was ons of the wealthiest
men there.
When you see him laughing, boisterous
and boyish, taking the keenest pleasure
In all his poor possessions, and seemingly
giving never a thought to those that he
has lost in ils old age, you have to rub
your eyes and say to yourself:
"Can this really be Senator William M.
Stewart, who has had the world at his
feet time and again, the man who, as
leading counsel for the Falr-iFlood-Mackay
syndicate on the famous Comstock lode,
received in oae fee )2o0,0U0, then the largest
fee ever received by any lawyer In the
world In a single fee; the man who was
in his prime when President Lincoln was
assassinated, and who la the only living
person who saw the oath administered to
Andrew Jackson In the Klrkwood bouse;
Jhe man who will always be remembered
In New York cafes as 'the gayest old Santa
Claus that ever lived;' the man Whose
political career has bad more crooks and
turns than a Boston street; the man who
controlled he state of Nevada absolutely;
the man who has not even great piety or
overscrupulous Integrity to oheer him In
misfortune and to enable hlin to look back
over a pathway of good deeds and noble
endeavors can It be that this happy, vigor

MILLIONS IN THE POSTAL FAD
Makers of Tarda Working? Overtime

of the Business.
Europe originated the picture postal
cards, although in a different form from
what it -now takes on the American news
stand or store. Aix-les-Bains, or some other
famous watering place, was responsible for
the beginning of the cards, for among the
first on record are some bearing the pic
tures of hotels at these resorts. Then came
the world's expositions, with their demand
for souvenirs to moll to the loved ones at
borne, and what could be so suitable aa a
picture postal card? And now It Is a poor
city or a poor summer resort that hasn't Its
souvenir postal cards for sale to visitors.
Still, so long as the picture was onfy a sou
venir, made and for sale at different points
of interest, Its circulation was never ef na
tional Importance.
But the Idea was taken and Improved
upon. Why, If people liked to mall cards
to their friends bearing, the picture of a
hotel where they were visiting, why
wouldn't they like to mall them cards con
taining other pictures and mottoes? It was
a new field. "Hustler" saw the possibilities
in it, and the result is the picture postal
card fad. Tho manufacturers of these little
novelties have closed their presses to every
thing else and are turning them out by the
million. Million Is the word, for one Arm,
one of the originators of the manufacture
in America, has up to date manufactured
this number and they declare that the fad
has Just seen Its birth.
The extent to which the fad already has
spread may be Judged by a walk down any
street where stationery or novelty stores
are to be found. Where formerly books,
periodicals and pictures filled the windows

Clyde Fitch was dtscussUig French wit.
JThe wit of France." he said, "won't bear
transplanting. We shouldn't like It here. It
everything has now been cleared away to
make place for an exhibition of picture
postal cards. There have even been stores
started, usually by manufacturers or their
agents, exclusively for the sale of the cards.
A stock of picture cards would seem to
the casual observer a slim stock upon
which to start a store, but the fact that
the stores exist and make money testifies
further to the extent of the picture card -fad.
Also, a complete stock of cards is no
small affair, for the eagerness with which
the public has taken to them la only ex
ceeded by the great variety and assortment
which manufacturers turn out to cateh the
fickle fancy. One thousand different cards
Is not an unusual number for a store to
have in stock. When a few scores are car
ried of each kind the total runs up close to
100,000, and 100,0f4 cards make a respectable
bundle.
In cost the cards range from the com
mon "two for Ave" card of one or two
colors to the elaborate, tinseled and Im
ported affair that sells for 26 cents. The
"two for Ave" and the 8-cent cards are the
popular ones.
The proAt derived from the sale of these
oards la a substantial ons, especially when
a manufacturer puts out a card that
catches the popular fancy, as Ithe cost of
making diminishes greatly with the In
creased number. hat many of the cards
sold for 5 cents could be sold for half that
amount Is a fact, but the public always has
to pay well for Its fads. Storekeepers prob
ably profit fully aa much aa the makers In
this line, and with a good location and a
good line many a small stationery store is
reaping a golden harvest of nickels front
