The hollows in the gulch have been

The strong smell of sulphur and a
choking sensation of the lungs indicat-

DEATH TO ANIMALS.
Man Immune to Poisonous Vapors in
Death Gulch, Yellowstone Park.

L rom lle new Ofk IreSS,
Out in Wyoming, in the heart of the
Rocky mountains, is a little ravine cut
through volcanic rock, in which animals
meet an unexpected death
1t is called Death Gulch, and ii kills
its victims quickly by poisoning gases
that issue from it's many assures and
hang about its bed to a depth of two
or three feet. 1t is hidden away in re-
mote part of the northeast corner of
the Yellowstone National Park, and is
difficult of access for human beings.
While its noXiOus vapors are deadly for
many animals they do not overcome
men, because the vapors gather AMI
hang close to the ground. Bears seem
to be the favorite game for the de-
stroying agent.
The gulch is a short V-shaped ravine
in the extinct hot spring region of the
great lava basin of the park. Where
hot water formerly gushed from the
vents in the earths, poisoning gases
now issue, and unless dissipated by a
strong wind, these gases, being heav-
Ter than the air hover densely above
the ground. A tiny stream of clear and
cold water, tainted with sulphuric acid
noWs down narrow, steep channel in
the bed of the ravinc A few springs
so small as hardly to be worthy of the
name, contribute minutely to the
stream their oozings of acid water.
The gulch runs down the mountain
from basin about 250 feet higher than
Cache creek. Just below that point is
a spot where many animals come to
their end. on a recent visit to the spot
scientists of the United States geolo-
gical survey found the fresh body of
a large silver-tip grizzly, with the de-
composed remains Of another lying
close by. Within a short radius were
skeletons of four more bears and the
bones of an elk In the bottom of the
pocket they found the recently dead
bodies of several squirrels, rock hares
and other animals, besides many dead
butterflies and insects.
No sign Of violence could be found
