Steam---lts Strange Lakes.

White Island. New Zealand de-
rives It's name from the clouds OF
white steam in which II appears to
be continually enyeloped. Its urea
is only coo acres, and rs height
about $50 feet above the sea level.
In form and color II is Ike a re-
posing camel while its interior with
its gray, weather beaten, almost per-
pendicular cliffs, recalls the Colise-
um at Rome. Overhanging the
southern landing place stands coh
umn OF rock closely resembling a
sentinel, which has been dedicated
to the memory or Capt. Cook The
water Of the island Is Of pale
green hue, and anything dipped into
II becomes OF red brick color, The
fumes OF sulphur are always plainly
perQeptible.

In company with that genial

we drove over the grounds last
Saturday morning. An i'm.
mense amount of work has al.
ready been done in the way of
grading streets, making fills, etc ;,
and the work is still in progress,
many hands, mules, plows.
scrapers, ETC., being employed.
The property that has been
cut up into numerous lots and
through which streets are now
being graded lies on the eastern
side OF Lancasier-a portion of
it, in fact, bsing within the cor.
porate limits of the town-and

being high elevations, command
ing magnificent view of Lam
Gas ter and the surrounding coun-
try, with well-nigh perfect nat
ural drainage and within easy
reach of the business portion of
the town.
The streets running eastward
are extensions of Barr. Meeting.
Dunlap, Gay and Arch streets,
and a new proposed street south
OF the last named. The new
streets intersecting these at right
angles run from the public road
leading out by the Latham Place
on the north to Chesterfield ave-
nue. or Redfield road on the south.
One OF the new streets is named
Gregory, and another, Fergu-
son, after the enterprising and
progressive owners.
The lots will be sold at pub
lie auction, without limit, on
the 18th instant, by Mr.. j. Edgar
Poag, the widely known real
estate broker of Rock Hill. AS
this will be the first sale of the
kind ever held in Lancaster, a
large crowd, many from other
points, will no doubt attend. 1t
will certainly be big occasion,
for Lancaster and a fine oppor-
nifty for newcomers and others
desiring fine building lots to Sc
cure what they want.
