the rocks below, causing so greata com.
motion of the waters that large guam
tity of logs and lumber was torn from
their .moorings aud washed far out into
the lake. The smaller of the two pur-
sued ITS terrific and onward course as
far as the eve could reach, filling the be-
holder with wonder and astonishment,
and awakening such feeling uf gran.
deur and sublimity that they stood al
most mute and statue-like until the
sound of this gigantic column of water
died faraway ia the distance. ABORTION
