LARGEST FOUNTAIN
IN UNITED STATES
GIANT SPRINGS, NEAR GREAT
FALLS, WAS DISCOVERED
BY CAPTAIN LEWIS.
Four Hundred Million Gallons Flow
From Outlet Every Day-Tem-
perature Is so Degrees.

Near the great falls of the Missouri
in north-central Montana are some
very large springs that present certain
unique geologic features and suggest
an interesting problem as to the source
of the water. These springs, known
locally as Giant Springs, were discov-
cred in 1904 by Captain Lewis, of the
Lewis and Clark expedition, who de-
scribed them as the Largest fountain
in the United States
These springs which are on the
south side Of the Missouri river. about
three miles below the town of Great
Falls, Mont, issue through large joints
in medium to coarse grained sand
stone on the bank of the river at the
waters edge and in the bed of the
river itself. The situation of the
springs makes exact measurement of
their flow very difficult, but the differ
ence between two measurements of
the flow Of the Missouri-one above
and the other below the springs-has
been assumed to be the quantity of
water furnished to the river bv the
springs. According to E. T. Nettle-
ton, this amount is approximately 63S
cubic feet for second-the equiva-
lent of more than 40O,OOO,OOO gallons
every "a hours-a veritable under
ground river. The water, which boils
up with considerable force, is clear
and relatively pure, containing no
more dissolved salts than the average
we'll water Of the Great Falls region
1t has temperature of about so de-
grees Farenheit.
Report by the Geological Survey.
In connection with an investigation
of the geology and water resources of
the Great Falls region, c. A. Fisher
Of the United States geological survey.
made a careful study of the geologic
relations at the springs, from which
he concluded that their water is de-
rived from the subriver flow of the
Missouri that leaves it's valley near the
mouth of Sand Coulee and passes
down a channel that was occupied by
the river in preglacial time From
Gibson Flat. an oxbow of this old riv-.
er channel the water makes it's es-
cape by a subterranean passage
through porous sandstones and sandy
shales to the present Missouri river,
where it appears in Giant Springs. Mr..
Fisher believes that the jointing in
these rocks is an important factor in
the underground movement of the
water and states that we'll borings in
lower Sand Coulee and Gibson Flats
demonstrate that the materials filling
the old valley are largely coarse river
sediments we'll adapted for the rapio
percolation of water No use is made
of the water of the Giant Springs.

to the sweep of winds-in open def
ance of death dealing storms. They
willingly did a prodigious amount of
work each day, and then as bedfellows
they offered their fur as shelter and
bones as head rests to their two footed
companions. We had learned to appre-
ciate the advantage of their beating
breasts. The bond of animal fellow
ship had drawn tighter and tighter In
a long run OF successive adventures.
And now there vas a stronger reason
than eve to appreciate power, for to-
gether we were seeking an escape
from a world which was never intend
ed for creatures with humping hearts.
Much very heavy Ice was crossed
near the eighty-eighth, but the endless
unbroken fields of the northward trails
were not again seen. The weather
changed considerably. The light cut
ting winds from the west increased in
force, and the spasmodic squalls came
at shorter intervals. The clear purple

changed to light gray, and a rush of
frosty needles came over the pack for
several hours each day.
Could Brook No Delay.
The inducement to seek shelter in
cemented walls of snow and wait for
better weather was very great. But
such delay f%orestalled certain starva-
ton. Under fair conditions there was
barely food enough to reach land,
while even short delays might easily
jeopardize our return. We7coufd not.
therefore, do otherwise than to force
ourselves against the wind and drift
with all possible speed, closing the eye
to unavoidable suffering.
With no alternative, we tried to per
suade ourselves that conditions might
be worse.
The eighty-seventh was crossed, the
eighty-sixth was neared, but there
came a time when both mind and body
wearied of the whole problem of forced
resolution.
The hard work of igloo building was
now a thing of the past-only n had
been built since leaving the pole. and
In it q precious day was lost-while
the atmospheric fury changed the face
of the endless expanse of ~desolation.

were days long to be remembered, but

existence.
Fellow Feeling For Dogs.
The long strain of the march had
given a brotherly sympathy to tie trio
of human strugglers. Under the same
strain was made the descent to canine
levels. The dogs, though still possess
ing the savage ferocity of the wolf,
had taken us into their community.
We now moved among them without
nearing a grunt of discord, and their
sympathetic eyes followed until we
were made comfortable on the cheer
less SHOWS. If our dogs happened to
be placed neal enough they edged up
and encircled us, giving the benefit Of
their animal fires. To remind us Of
their presence frost covered noses were

The steady diet OF pemmican a1d tea

place at about this time of the year,
was In u case marked only by a

manned as a reminder Of reckless dar-
ing. AS we now moved along the feel

the realization of the prospective diff
culties of the return. Though the mer-
curry was still frozen and the suns
perpetual flush was lost In a frigid
blue, the time was at hand In lower
ATTITUDES for the Ice to break and drift
southwark.
With correct reasoning all former
expeditions had planned to return to
land and secure a line of retreat by
May l. We could not hope to do so
until early in June. 1t seemed, there
fore, probable that the ice along the
outskirts of the polar sea would be
much disrupted and that open water.
small ice and rapid drifts would seri-
ously interfere with u return to a
sure footing on the shores of Nansen
sound. All Of this and many other
possibilities were carefully considered
before, but the conquest of the pole
was not possible without risks.
Famine and Frost.
We started earlier than all other
polar aspirants, and no time had been
los. en- route. If misfortune came to
us 1t could not be because of wasted
energies or unnecessary delay. In the
last days of the onward rush to sue
cess there was neither time nor oppor-
tunity to ponder over the bitters or
subsequent remorse, but now, facing
southern skies under which were home
and all for which we lived, the back
trail seemed indescribably long. III
cold sober thought, freed of the intox-
ication of polar enthusiasm, the diff
culties darkened in color. We now
saw that the crucial stage Of the cam
paign was not the taking of the pole.
The test of our fitness as boreal con-
ouerors was to be measured by the
outcome Of a final battle for life
against famine and frost.
The FIRST days, however, passed rap
idly. With fair weather and favorable
ice long marches were made.
We aimed to return along the one
hundredth meridian. There were three
important objects to be gained by a
route somewhat west of the north
ward march. The increasing easterly
drift would thus be counterbalanced.
We hoped to get near enough to the
new lands to explore a part of the
coast, and a wider belt would be swept
out of the unknown area.
The pack drift proved quite active.
and we were quickly carried eastward
beyond our daily drift allowances. On
April 80 the p%edometer registered 12l
miles, and by our system of dead reck
oning, which was usually correct, we
should have been at latitude $3.50,
longitude 100. The nautical observa.
tons gave latitude 1871. longitude 8 7.42.
We were therefore drifting eastward
with increasing speed, and to counter

of ice to gladden. the heart. The Their
mometer rose and fell between 80 and
40 below zero F., with a ceaseless
wind. It was still very cold. The first
of May was at hand, bringing to mind
the blossoms and smiles of a kindly
world, but mere all nature was mar
rowed to lines of Ice. The sun cirdled
the skies in lines of glaring. but its
heat was a sham and its light a tor
ment.
With weary nerves and compass in
hand my lonely march ahead of the
sleds was continued. Progress was
satisfactory. We had passed the
eighty-ninth and eighty-eighth paral-
lels. The eighty-seventh and the eighty
