This is a land Of extinct volcanoes.
There is one a number of miles east of

rounding country for many miles is
thickly dotted with great beds Of lava.
which evidently came from this volcano.
At Park View, where the mesa dips
down to the river bottom, three miles
from this place, there is large hill
cmposed entirely OF lava rock which was
from the volcano ten or twelve miles
Some OF the bloeks will weigh several

the side Of this hill to get on the mesa
IN early days, at great expense and
labor The extinct crater Of this vol
cano is now quite large lake, the bot

with a line.
Yesterday Mexican who lives near
the old volcano came into town and
said that the water had disappeared
from the crater, and that the bottom
could not be seen. He also stated that
small Jets Of smoke arose from the bot
tom OF the crater. accompanied by rum
bling sounds. His story has excited
considerable interest and will be in

will be found to arise from cigarettes in
the mouths OF the numerous sheep
herders employed by Hon. n. d, Burns
in that vicinity.

A WASHINGTON dispatch says: "The

that the senate committee will report
the bin to the senate at this session.
The measure has a strong advocate in
Senator Quay, and it has the sympathy
of the president, but the plea Of the
lcheirman Of the committee, Senator
Beverage. of Indiana, has been that
there win be no time to consider the
measure al tins session. and it vas.
therefore; u6Iess to report il out. 1t is
hoped, however that there will be re-
consideration Of the action Of the COM
mittee, when it was decided to postpone
the consideration of the bill. One Of
the opposition sepators has since ex
pressed himself as rather favorable to
the bin, and it is hoped that the com
mittee will decide to report it favorably.
In that evenC, the friends of the bill

From the Dnrnnno Herald

The Herald is sorry the sections Of
country lacking suficiency Of water for
irrigation purposes, can not have the
Animas river turned into their territory
even for a day, as there is enough water
going down stream to irrigate a million
acres Of land-yes, ten million acres, il
divided evenly. The stream has been
running high for some weeks, is 200
feet wide and three to ten feet deep
with a rapid fall. The water taken out
for irrigation purposds has no apparent
effect whatever. If the water could
only be turned in to the Rio Grande
ami other streams running low it would
certainly be a great boon.

PROBABLY A STREET CAR LINE.

Attention is directed to the charter
of Incorporation of the electric light
and power. company published in to-
days Progress. It will be observed
by reading the article that the cor
poration will have the power to put
in and operate a street car system.
This no doubt is one of the objects Of
the company and that work with
that object In view will be inaugural
ed before many more moons. A city
the size of Hattiesburg should have
street car system, for it presents an
opening that is not enjoyed by any
other city in the state. We have
few springs out a few miles
from the city of the finest
mineral waters in the world, and
besides those living here, thousands
from other sections would visit the
springs every Sunday had they the
opportunity to do so without having
to go ont early IN the morning and
remaining until night. But aside
from this the city is well located for
fine street car sysem and that such
will be put I'm soon there seems to be
but little doubt.

One of the most beautiful lights
ever seen in this section of the state
If really in another section is the arc
light that hangs over the Gordon
creek bridge on Pine street. 1t is as
far superior to the other arc lights as
the sun is to the moon. 1t is new
kind of arc light and is equal in
power to two or three of the other
kind. This light is put up as a sam
pie and the electric light company
hopes to induce the city to take
them in the place of the others. 1t
would be economy, as they give a
much better and stronger light,
thereby not requiring so many of
them. One of them located at the
crossing of Main and Front streets
would.certaInly be the admiration OF
all who might see it.
