(2Q) TELLER MOUNTAIN TERRACE
is an extinct horizontal terrace con
tanning millions of tons of magnesls
piled up mountain high. Its walls are
composed of numerous circular basins
rising one above another for severa
hundred feet, once filled and overflow
ing with boiling water. now occupied
by cedar and pines.
1907 THE ORANGE GEYsEK CONE
has two pulsating jets of boiling water
issuing from the top and flowing ovel
its walls, which are about 20 feet high
Each Jet builds its own section OF the
cone and makes the circle in about l:
years. building upward about one foot
in century. 1t is consequently twen'
ty centuries old and will require forty
centuries to close the apex of the cone
when the two arteries will come to-
gether. Will the United States exist
when the Orange Cone is done build
ing? East of the Orange is another
pair of infant cones only three cent'l'
ries old.

are most wonderful. The Jelly on the
west cone palpitates periodically as if
it were a sobbing child. The throat

manner. as if it vomited. There is a
bloody looking mucus that forces IT, e

1927 BATH LAKE
is the fayorlte, popular bath tub where
three hundred people may enjoy lux
ury which ancient Rome with all her
wealth and power could not afford her
citizens. It is to be regretted that
both sexes cannot share this delightful
bath. Ladies cannot even see it. for
in pleasant weather large numbers of
nude male bathers occupy it exclusive
ly. The government ought to regu-
late this matter by either constructing
or permitting the construction Of dress
ing rooms in which both sexes could
have bathing suits and together

1867 THE SULPHUR PITS
reveal the fact that beds of sulphur
underlie this whole valley, from the
Orange to the Mammoth Cave. Care
must be had in nguiolling the llghts
often used in experimenting on the
sulphur crystals that are found all over
the valley.
(37) WIZARDS HAT TERRACE
derives it's name from its resemblance
to a peaked hat. 1t is nearly two
hundred yards in circumference at the
base. It has been dead so many years
that the old basins are now filed with
forest trees.
1887 M'MINN's SPRING
broke out early in 1884 and has been
steadily increasing in force. The wa
ter is highly charged with sulphur and
pure magnesia. Mrs. McMinn was en-
tirely cured of chronic rheumatism by
bathing in the water from this spring.
At first she lost flesh and strength but
persevered until she is now entirely
