A Cliff Of Glass.

In Yellowstone Park there is ar
obsidian cliff, 200 feet high, which
Prof. Joseph P. Iddings says sis a.
good glass as any artificially manu-
featured. Its colors and structure
not only make it highly interesting te
the visitor, but furnish to the scien.
tific. investigator phenomena OF i'm.
portance. The cliff presents partial
section of a surface flow of obsidiau
that poured down an ancient slope
from the plateau lying east 1t is
impossible to determine what the
original thickness of this may have
been. The dense glass that now
forms its lower portion is from
seventy-aye to 100 feet thick, while
the porous and pumiceous. upper por.
ton has suffered from ages Of erosion
and glacial action. A remarkable
feature of the cliff is the development
OF prisnatic columns, which form ix
southera extremity. These are the
shining black obsidian. rising from
the talus slope. and from fifty te
sixty feet in height, with diameter<
varying from two to four feet. Th6
color Of the material Of this cliff is. fes
the most part, jet black, but much Of
it is notified and streaked with
bright, brownlsh red and various
shades of brown, from dark to light
yellowish, purplish and olive green.
The brilliant lusteY of the rock and
the strong contrasts of color with the
black, are very striking. In places
the glass, in the process Of cooling,
has been broken into small angular
pieces which have been again
cemented by the later fow."

August.
Flower

For two years I suffered terribly
with stomach trouble, and was for
all that time under treatment by q
physician. He finally, after trying
everything, said my stomach was
worn out, and that / would have to
cease eating solid food. On the rec
ommendation of friend I procured
bottle of August Flower. Itseem-i
ed to do me good at once. I gained
strength and flesh rapidly. I feel
now like a new man, and consider
that August Flower has cured me. "

j.. w. Taylor and his son Charles, ac-
companied by Frank Conway, Mark Mo
Laughlin and Mr.. Stone. who have been
working for him, returned Thursday over
land from Sheridan. Wyo., says the Red
Lodge Picket. NJ. Taylor had a large
grading contract on the b. d Nd. railroad.
which he has just completed. He reports
that the track of the road was finished to
Sheridan on the 23l, and that trains are
now running INTO that town. Grading is
completed and three or four miles of track
laid beyond Sheridan toward the crossing
of the I ongue river, which is about ten
miles distant. Mr.. Taylor states that this
is as far as the road will go this season.
Mr.. Taylor says his contract was by no
means a soft snnp and that he made very
little money OF it. George Town. who
went out with Mr.. Taylor. has a contract
for grading on Powder river, which is about
completed, and he may be expected nome
in the course of two or three weeks.
