RED FIRE AND KEROSENE.

From close TO the city, which IL over
shadows and protects from the cold
storms OF New Mexico. the mountain
stretches it's long backbone for miles to
the northeast
Towering 1000 feet into the air, abso-
lutely bare of all vegetation. but with its
streaked granite sides presenting a vsri-
ETY. OF colors 10 rival the rainbow, the
mountain is one Of the picturesque sights
of the Southwest.
Half-dozen of the big manufacturers Of
fireworks are figuring on the volcano
scheme now and some of the best mining
engineers i'm the Southwest are helping
them with their practical knowledge OF
mountains and their habits
In a general way il has been decided
that several tons OF red fire, thousands
of pounds of dynamite, and many huge
tanks of Kerosene set on fire and allowed
to now. burning. down the mountain side
will go far toward carrying out the imita-
tion.
But that is not all before Mount Frank
lin can be turned into Western hem-
isphere Vesuvius
These details are being figured out as
fast as IL is possible for them To be, and
they will all have been determined before

HAS ADMIRABLE cRATBRs.
So far as the mountain itself Is con-
cerned the feat OF turning II into an imi-
tation volcano Is not hard one.
The great difficulty lies in ascertain
ing what kinds OF combustibles and ex-
plosives will give the most realistic ef-
feet.
The mountain has, both on its crown,
which looks down on III Paso. and on ths
side which stretches back into the de-
sert. n number OF immense cup-shaped
depressions which will make. admirable
craters.
Then. too. its great rocky side is seam
ed with gullies which could not be im-
proved upon as the beds for streams OF
burning lava.

Ell Paso, Texas, Is to Have
Artificial Volcano Soon.

Way down in El Paso. IN Texas. they
are preparing to turn mountain into
volcano. The mountain, so far as is
known, never had the slightest intention
of being a colcano. Its record. except
that 1t has been the refuge OF Indians.
bandits, and Mexican cattle thieves. is
perfectly clear.
And yet. now. in it's old age, II is TO be
turned into a volcano for the delecta-
ton OF the people OF FL Paso ard of
those who go there so attend the mid
winter carnival. Such a feat OF pyrotech-
nical and mechanical engineering has
never been attempted before.
1t Is going 10 cost thousands OF dollars.
but as the people of El Paso have made
up their minds that they need volcano
in their business, they arc going TO have
IL. even If It does cost a good deal.
The mountain on which this huge ex-
pertinent is TO be made is known as Mount
Franklin lt lies TO the north OF El Paso
and forms one OF the pillars OF the gate
which gave the city its name of The

was dead was evident; but, as MIR.

seen upon her, nor were there any
marks of blood on or about the place
where she lay.

There was bed in this room; indeed,
it was Mrs. Webb's bedroom, and
upon this poor Batsy was laid. AS the

started and looked at each other in
amazement. The expression of terror
and alarm which it showed was in
striking contrast to the look of exal-
