Odessa
is on the Texas and Pacific Railway, 329
miles west of Fort Worth, and 287 miles east
of El Paso, beaut~fully located on a site over-
looking the countr~ for a distance of ten
miles. Jt was started at the time of the town
lot sale in May, '886, since which time
eleven substantial buildings have been
erected, among them a handsome depot,
second to none on the line of the road, two
story building~, a two story hotel, towocom-
pany office and dwellings. A two story
building, 32x80 feet, having twenty rooms,
is operated as a health resort, where people
suffering, from throat and- lung troubles,
rheumatism and kindred other diseases, may
avail themselves of the best climate in the
world for a cure. The sanitariam in charge
of Dr. R. E. Haughton, an experienced
physician.
No Dengue Here.
Experience of the past four summers af-
fords another instance of the healthfulness
of West Texas, partictilarly of the Staked
Plain. While dengue has had its run gen
erally through eastern and southern parts of
the state, scarcely any one being exempt
from it, there has been no case on the
Plains. What the peculiarities of tht disease
are we know not; but its prevalence through
East Texas, from north to south, indicates
that it is due to local causes, and the
exemption of the west may surely be ascribdd
to its elevation and natural healthful condi
tions'
