Vacations Along
the Northwestern
Continuous Delight
A trip to one of the thousands of rest
ing places along tho line of the North
western lsu.ll that Is needed to make the
summer vacation one continuous round of
pleasure. The Northwestern practically
reaches every section of South Dakota,
Minnesota and Wisconsin, the playground
of the lover of the sports found on the
prairies, on the waters and In the wodos.
bet on any of tho westbound trains and
In a few hours of comfortable travel. If
you go westward, you are among tho
sand hill lakes of Cherry county, Ne
braska, all of which are filled with little
and big mouth bass, weighing from ope
to five pounds. Go a little farther and
you are among the pines of the Black
Hils, where big game abounds. In sea
son It Is no trick to bring' down a deer,
or two, and If you are a hunter, skilled,
you are likely to get a bear, for there
are-plenty of them still prowling around
the hills. Down In tho cool and shaded
gulches, through which run streams of
water as clear as crystal, you will find
brook and rainbow trout, night at this
time they are taking the fly and to se
cure a creel full of them In a morning
or afternoon- Is no trick.
If you do not want to go west, board
any of the trains going Minnesota
or Wisconsin, and after a ride over night,
you aro landed right In the heart of tho
lake country. Drop over Into Wisconsin
and put up at any of the hotels or cabins,
In which was once the timber district
and -at 'no tinier or place will you be
more than two or three miles from a
lake that sparkles and glitters like moU
ten silver. These lakes are numbered by
the hundreds and they are teeming Willi
fish of almost every variety. Along their
shores and back In the woods there Is
wild fruit of every variety growing In
abundance, tho premier of which Is the
wild red raspberry.
Go out and pick these raspberles and
then tako them to some farm house
where you can buy a bowl of rich, aweet
cream and you will haye a dlsft that
would be the envy of a king.
Yellowstone Park
the Mecca of Most
American Tourists
When the story of the seven wonders
of the world was written1, Yellowstone
National park was unknown to civili
zation. Hod It been known, the story
would have told of elHht wonder and
this park would have been mentioned as
the chief attraction.
This year the Union Pacific, while
featuring the other thousand and one at
tractions along Its line, Is calling atten
tion to this wonderful region, the beauties
aid magnitude of which must be seen
to be fully appreciated.
With the completion of Its line to Yel
lowstone, the Union Pacific lands tour.
Ists In the park without the tiresome
rlda that was required some years ago
Now, all that Is to be done Is to buy
the train ticket, secure the berth res
trvat'.on and start on tho Journey
Trains splendidly appointed drops the
tourist off at the west entrance to the
park, where, after a nmok'ng hot break
fast, the trip through the wonderland
commences. The journey Is made In
comfortable stages, frequent stops being
made at points of Interest enroute. The
nights are spent at hotels that compare
favorably with those of the large cities
Up there In the park at this season
of the year, the nights are always cool,
and sleeping under a cpuple of blankets
Is delightfully enjoyable. And while this
Is on of the great pleasures of the trlP.
It sinks into lnslgnlflance, as compared'
with the day ride on the hurricane deck
of one of the big four, or six horse
,tge coaches on which the trip through
the park Is made.
Riding on one ot these stages, con
renlnt parlies of six, eliht, and ten arr
whirled along past the wonders of
nature. Stops are made at Old Polfth
f)il, the Morning Glory and dosens of
Jther grysern to wntnh them nout hr
hot water from a depth of perhaps 1,000
to 5.000 feet, where the fires contin
ually burn.
OPENING OF THE FOREST
RESERVE IS ATTRACTIVE
The opening of the North Platte forest
reserve, probably about October 1. I
attracting the attention of land seekers.
From Hyannls, the Burlington station
nearest to the land, from thirty to fifty
llomeaeekers are going out daly to look
over the area that Is to be opened for
zettlement.
A greater portion of the land going onto
the market lies couth and west of
Hyannls and generally Is a stock proposi
tion, though there are said to be a num
ber of wide valleys suitable for carrying
on agricultural pursuits
CANAL ZONE ATTRACTS MANY
Trip to the Isthmus of Panama is
Now Quite the Thing.
LAND AND 00EAN TRIP COMBINED
Illinois Central Rets Into the Him
Inca and Offer Inducements
thnt Are Proving Very
Attractive.
While there are many places to go If
ono has the time and money, there Is
nono that Is proving more attractive and
Interesting this summer than a Journey
to tho Isthmus ot Panama and through
the canal tone.
A few years ago a trip to the Isthmus
was an unheard of thing, especially dur
ing the summer. Yellow Jack, cholera
and every disease that could bo found
In the torrid zono prevailed there.
Things havo changed under the regime
of American occupancy and while the
canal sone Is not advertised as a summer
health resort, It la as healthful a place
as right' here In Nebraska.
Then, too, the zone Is ensy of access,
made doubly so by the Illinois Central
railroad, that Is now featuring summer
travel In that direction. If you deslro to
visit Panama, Colon or any of the other
quaint old cities on tho Isthmus cities
that were In tho zcnlt of their glory
long before the grade stakes In New
York were set all you have to do is to
secure your ticket, board one of tho
Illinois Central passenger trains and
Journey on to Chicago. There you change
cars and start south, following down
along the east shore of tho Mississippi,
through historic cities nnd towns and tho
second day out you arc In the land of
the mocking bird and the magnolia. It
will hot be long until New Orfeans la
reached and after a short stop there you
board one of the steamers and speed
away across tho Gulf of Mexico, touch
ing at several ports en route. The ocean
voyago Is a round of pleasure. It con
sumes five days and the expenso Is little
more than remaining at home and board
ing at a hotel.
Flontinir PnlAce.
Tho steamships engaged In this trade
are floating palaces. There are the par
lors, the promenade decks, libraries and
staterooms most luxuriously furnished.
Reaching Colon, the city at the east end
of the canal the proper thing Is to go
across to the Pacific This is ono ono ot
the easy and Interesting trips, tho
method of travel being by rail, carriage
and boat
Colon Is one ot the Interesting places
of the zone. There the tourlat sees the
breakwater at the cntranco ot the canal,
It Is a gigantic work, being 11,700 feet
long, and when completed will have cost
5,000,000. In tho city of Colon la tho
commissary department, from whence
the government deals out supplies for the
men working ton the canal, their fam
ilies and others, some 60,000 persons In all.
In the town Is found the statue of Colum
bus and the Ind.an maid, erected so
long ago that the date has been forgotten.
There Is the house of Ferdinand de Les
seps, the Frenchman who attempted the
construction of the canal when It was
being promoted by France. This Immense
building Is now the oyTlces of tho health
department Besides, there aro the typ
ical South American buildings scattered
about everywhere, making. It strictly a
foreign city.
There aro many. -who are of the opinion
that summer on the Isthmus Is unen
durable. They have the wrong Idea, for
down there the temperatures do not run
sp high, as here. Government records
show that tho maximum temperature at
Colon during July and August ot last
year was SB degrees. However, It Is about
the igome temperature the day through.
It starts In at about SO In the morning,
climbs up a few degrees during the day
and then drops oft five or six degrees at
night While the maximum temperature
during these months waa 85 the inlml
mum was 74 degrees, so It Is easy to see
that It la neither very cool nor very hot
UNION PACIFIC PLANS
TO QUICKEN ITS SERVICE
Beginning August 1, the Union Pacific.
will rearrange its passenger train service
from the north Pacific coast, shortening
tho time eleven and one-half hourB. Tho'
train that has been leaving Portland at
6:30 each evening, upon reaching Green
Ulver, will become a part of No. 4 instead
of 10 and will carry the Milwaukee's
Chicago equipment, arriving In Omaha at
6:30 In the morning Instead of 6:30 in the
evening. Here the shipment wtl be at
once taken over the Milwaukee and
hauled on east.
Heretofore No, 4 has been a slow train,
doing all local business all the way from
Green River. Under the new plan'it will
be. speeded up and mado ono of the fast
trains.

Colorado is the
Place for Rest and
Relief from Cares
While many seek the seashore and
the woods for rest ana recreation dur
ing the hot months ot summer, still
more hie themselves to the mountains.
Tho stupendous grot dour nnd magnitude
of a mountain that rears Its head Into
tho clouds and Is eternally covered with
Bnow Is something that always at

Colorado.
Right no'w tho Missouri Pacific Is til

They go from Omaha and the hundrodn
of other cities and towns along tho lines.
Instead ot stopping In Denver and tho
other cities along the cast slops ot tho
Rockies, they at once hlo themselves to
