Creek and cot n Pointer In Return
Perhaps the most popular man connected
with the Yellowstone Park Transportation
company says the Livingston Post, is Cap
tain Il. c. Culver OF Garduer. In addition
to the duties Of Justice of the peace ho
makes a daily trip on the park train and
personally interviews every man, boy, woman
and child who travels on 1t. lie is a walk
ins encyclopedia OF Park information. lie
knows the height of every peak, the alti-
tuGe of every important location and can
give you Prof Hayden's theory of the Parks
geological formation. Besides all this he
is a prince of good fellows and has a fund
OF humor which sometimes carries him away
when touching up descriptions and legends
of the Park.
Some time ago the captain had an cx-
perience which was too good to keep, and
he gave 1t away to a friend in town. He
was going from the Springs to Clnndbar,
and there were three very bright young
ladies in the coach. One of them asked
II 1t were customary to have so many mos
qultoes In so high an altitude The cap
tain assured her that 1t was not unusual;
that they were increasing year by year;
that no mosquitoes were ever known In the
Park until, about eight years ago a New
Jersey schoolma'm had carelessly enclosed
some in her trunk and let them out at Mamr-
moth Hot Springs, when, like rabbits in
Australia, they became an increasing pest
All agreed that 1t was remarkable, but
one girl seemed to carry a smile of iucrcdul-
ity. AS the conversation continued, MIR
Culver was asked what he considered tho
most remarkable thing in the Park. He
said that II beauty and grandeur were 10 30
left out OF the count. he thought the most
remarkable thing" was Alum creek, a little
stream putting into the river between the
fans and the lake Originally he said The
distance between the hotels at the lake aud
the falls was twenty-six miles but when
they commenced to sprinkle the road be-
tween the two places with water taken from
Alum creek some years ago, they soon
found the distance between the hotels
shortened by about eight miles. As the
hotels were then only about eighteen miles
apart and the road still shrinking. the sup
erintendent ordered them to use no more
water from Alum creek. And then the
captain told another little legend about the
creek that quite well authenticated.
Last year he said, a party went through
the Park on camping tour. and a young
lady with them came into the Park wear
ing No. shoes. After camping on Alum
creek two days and bathing her feet she
went home wearing pair Of No. 2 CATERS.
AT this point the girl with the incredulous
smile said to MIN:
Don't you think II would be a good plan
to bathe your head in that creek time or

PHOTOGRAPHER ny NATURE.
n Forest Landscape Pictured I'M
COIOra ON u Chestnut Sinh

A Forest Landscape Pictured iH
Colora on II Chestnut Slab.
That nature is a rare artist in colors,
applying them with Incompatible effect,
every one knows; but few persons are
aware probably that occasionally she also
tries her cunning hand at photography
Frank S. Peabody of Pawcatuck at the
extreme southeastern end of the Nutmeg
state, hls wonderfully precise and curl
GUS specimen of her handwork In this
way. 1t is q natural landscape photopranh
on chestnut slab.
While wandering about the Lodging
woods, vast and indescribable dreary will
derness OF tangled forest, morasses and
terms, in the northern part OF the hill town
OF North Stonington, Mr.. Peabody came
INTO clearing in the heart of the Jungle
that was bestrewn with the PROSTATE
trunks OF many forest trees felled by the
woodmans axe Stumbling about the jum-
Bile OF logs, planks, fire and brushwood,
many pieces of which were matted with
patches of moss and lichens forming singu-
lar and striking arabesQue art patterns
ne finally espied a short chestnut plank
on whose wide face was imprinted vivid
clearly defined picture Of the woodland
scene thereabout.
"The slab" said Mr.. Peabody, had been
lying for nearly year in muck or swamp
region of the Lodging woods, and no doubt
the disintegrating effiuvia from the ground,
reeking with moisture. had wrought phe-
nomenal chemical change in its smooth face
developing therein a Photographic fitness
to receive and perpetuate impressions. At
any rate perfect likeness of the land
scape confronting the chestnut slab cam
era, set up there by nature, had been
taken by 1t and faithfully and sharply fixed
thereon. In fact. there is the whole scene
imprinted accurate to a dot, with every
tree, its crown and trunk, interlacing
branches and boughs, even minute twigs,
swamp shrubbery and spndling stadders
and shoats, clearly defined in the plank
likeness. The slab, since 1t was in nearly
recumbent posture, of course photographed
only the trees and brush that were d-
recty in front and about it. but the like
ness is an unmistakable one. Further
more. it is colored photograph for the
outlines Of the objects traced on the plank
plate are of a deep yellow, like ochre."
