Shoshono Journal.
What we are about to relate will be
received with much doubt and incre-
dulity by many people personally
familiar with that part of Snake river
lying between Great Shoshone Falls
and the Twin Falls, three miles farther
up.
The river here runs through dark
and shadowy gorge, with high per-
pendicular cliffs of black, igneous
rock on either side, while deep down
at their base the haze of twilight fits
and hoverso or the waters surface even
at midday giving to the place a
CHASTITY stiffness and quiet desolation
that eminently fit it for the silurian
monster that on several occasions has
been seen apparently sleeping on the
quiet surface or beating the waters to
n form in what was doubtless a wild
endeavor to escape from his narrow
home. Mr.. II. G. Hardness, an old
pioneer of this section and who has
seen the monster on two separate
occasions. thus describes him. APP
parently he is fully one hundred feet
in length having body shaped not
unlike mud wasp, that is the caudal
portion or tail is connected with the
body proper by a marrow liganent or
cord, unproportionately small as com
pared with the two parts that it join,
which are as large around as locomo-
tive boiler. The head is shaped very
much like the stone hatchets used by
the early tribes Of Indians living east
OF the Mississippi, that is, there is
sunken ridge running completely
around it and separating the eye from
the mammoth horns that project from
the side and upper portion of the head
Mr. Hardness says these horns
which correspond in size to the animal
itself and which extends with gentle
curve along its back to near where
the connecting ligament is found-are
of deep red color and from the
points of which occasional sparks,
doubtless electricity, are emitted.
The eyes, which are unusually large,
are Of O turquoise hue, oblong in
shape and protruding. The body is
of maroon color, save that on either
side bright yellow stripe, probably
six inches in width, extends the entire
length of the animal
All in all it is the most wonderful
living creature, and could 1t be cap
tured and transported to Chicago it
would be the great sight to be seen at
the Worlds Fair. Ii
Others have seen it and their de- s
