ORIGIN of Geysers.
HUGH H. HENRY,
Commissioner

Geysers are found in only three places
in the world, according to a publication
entitled "Geysers," just issued by the
Department of the Interior. These
three regions are Iceland, where gey-
sers were first discovered, New Zealand,
and the Yellowstone National park, in
which these natural steam engines are
more numerous and of greater beauty
than in the two other areas mentioned.
In the Yellowstone the geysers are
found in detached geyser basins, or fire
holes, as they were called by the first
explorers, and the groups possess indi-
vidual peculiarities which give charac-
ter and interest to each locality. The
most noted of these ''basins" is, how
ever, that known as the Upper Geyser
basin of the Firehole river, one of the
headwaters of the great Missouri. The
whole floor of the valley is fairly rid
died with springs of boiling water,
whose exquisite beauty is indescribable.
Light clouds of feecy vapor curl up
ward from waters of the purest azure
or the clearest of emerald, and encir-
cling rims of white marble-like silica,
form fit setting for such great gems.
A large part of the valley floor is cove
cred with the white deposit of silica
known as siliceous %sinter, deposited by
the overlooking hot waters. The weird
Wilderness of these areas, the gaunt
white trunks of pine trees killed by the
hot waters, the myriad pools of steam
ing crystal, and the white clouds float
ing off from the chimney-like geysei
cones, form a scene never to be forgot.
ten by those fortunate enough to behold
it.
The intermittent spouting of geysers
was long a riddle to scientific men.
The theory, which bears the name OF
the illustrious chemist, Bunsen, is now
generally accepted. This theory is
based on the well-known fact that the
boiling point of water rises with the
pressure, and is therefore higher at the
DOIUOm Oh d IuDe IHdH dl Ine surface
In a long and narrow or an irregular
tube ebullition in the lower part is only
possible at a much higher temperature
than at the top, owing to the weight Of
water column above it. If by the con.
tinued heating the lower layer of water
attains the temperature at which it car
boil, steam is formed, whose expansive
force lifts the superintendent column
of water, causing a slight overflow al
the top, which shortens the column, SC
that steam is formed at a higher point
and a further lifting and relief of pres
sure ensues, followed by an eruption.
This publication, which may be pur-
chased from the Superintendent of Doc.
uments, Government Printing Office,
Washington, d. c., contains photo
graphs of the principal geysers and dia-
grams illustrating the forces that cause
them. 1t is written in n~ontechnica'
language so that it may be readily I'M
derstood by the reader without scien-
tific training.

Tao Identifies Lost Child.

AS Policeman Comolli was passing the
corner of Fifth avenue and One Hun
dred and Tenth street, New York city,
a little girl about three years old walked
up to him, and placing her hand IN his
said: 81 am losted." The bluecoat
was on his way to the station-house,
and so he took the child with him. On
her way to the station and while there
the little thing kept reaching down the
inside of her dress at the neck, and the
officer thought she was reaching for a
mosquito bite, but the lieutenant dis
covered that she was trying to get at a
metal tag hung around her neck by a
string. On the tag was printed the
chiid's name and address. A patrolman
went to the address and found the par
ents, Mr.. and Mrs. Benjamin Ketner,
and brought them to the station to
identify the child. 1t seems that the
child had gotten into a habit of running
away from home, and the tag had been
put on to identify her. 1t is as natural
for a child as it is for a sheep to wander
away from home. There is required
the strongest parental love to counter
act the influence. Three years of age
is rather early to develop this straying
instinct, and the tag saved the little
thing from what might have been dan
gerous consequences. Christian Her

a Pleased Savings Bank
Deuositor

There is no county in Vermont, indeed,
hardly a town in the state, or a state in
the Union, that does not make deposits
n the Hyde Park Savings Bank.
The unprecedented growth of that in.
stitution is the result of NO things first,
confidence; second, satisfaction with its
management.
Everybody is well treated at that bank
and everybody is satisfied.
Ask your neighbor who deposits there
and see if he does not vouch for the
truthfulness of this statement.

Illicit DistiIling Is on the Increase

az OONSHINING-the act Of manu-
N1 featuring distilled liquors in vio-
lation of the internal revenue LAWS
on the increase all over the country,
according to experts of the treasury
department. OF course, the depart
ment never concerns itself with ques-
tions of public policy, and consequent
ly it has nothing to do or-say about
the increase or decrease of prohibit
ton throughout the United States.
Nevertheless the work Of the bureau
of internal revenue is Immediately con-
cerned with this question of public
policy, because it has been found that
wherever prohibition laws exist there
also is afforded the greatest possible
Incentive for violations of the internal
revenue laws by "moonshiners."
It will be some weeks yet before the
report of the work of internal revenue
agents with respect to the enforce
ment of the laws against "moonshin-
ing" will be compiled for the last fiscal
year, but enough is known to warrant
the statement that there has not only
been a great increase, but a great
spread Of that industry in the last fis-
cal year.
The Colorado statesman., 1912-07-27

as the great unmeasurable, overmas.
tering, all powerful, irresistible Force
that rules, governs and directs the
universe, and should willingly sub
NIT to His laws. No matter how
grand a parsonage, or great nation
may be, they have got to succumb
to the laws of nature, which are the
laws of God.
Men and nations at various times
have arrogated to themselves that
they were supreme over earth, and
have had their answers by being
wiped out of existence. SO that there
is not vestige left Of them, and in
destruction by earthquakes. floods,
famines, fire, and pestilence and by
the laundering of the Titanic and
other marine disasters.
"As a great majority OF the people
Of this country acknowledge the
Christian faith, and as Christian peo-
pie practically rule the world, the
church pennant is certainly the one
we should use as representing that
great Being to whom we owe allegi-
ance."
The Colorado statesman., 1912-07-27

The greatest increase in this Illegal
business in recent years has been
noted in Georgia, Alabama, North
Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia and
Tennessee. While the internal revenue
officers have been constantly raiding
the districts where the Illicit industry
has been known to exist for half
century or more, backfire has sprung
up In the settled districts of those
states which has necessltated an in
crease in the force of inspectors and
agents and great diligence and energy
all along the line.
Furthermore, the "moonshining" In
dustry has begun to invade the north,
and particularly some Of the larger
cities of the north, where the possi-
bility Of hiding Is excellent.

WAsHINGToN-Boy Scouts of
w America are doing a piece of real
and extremely useful scouting. They
are searching for trees that are af-

work was started in Pennsylvania,

The boys have been Of great help to
the forestry department in detecting
this disease and reporting the trees

That work afforded an excellent
piece Of scouting for boys and the re-

OLD CORNER STONE IS FOUND
The Original Landmark of the District
of Columbia is Brought
to Light.

The original corner stone of the Dis
trict of Columbia, which was laid with
pomp and ceremony ON April Is. 1871,
has again been brought to light. 1t is
located beneath a sea wall in front of
Jones Point lighthouse, on the Poto-
mac below Alexandria 1t remained
there for 70 years exposed to the
weather, until in 1861 it was conceal
ed by the construction of the sea
wall around the lighthouse.
The United States engineer corps,
Col. w, C. Langfitt commanding. has
been making some repairs and the
stone was disclosed when a small
part of the retaining wall was re.
moved.
The wall will be rebuilt so that the
stone will remain in view protected
by a concrete inclosure with a graf
ing in front. 1t Is expected that the
Columbia Historical society will erect
a permanent tablet beside the relic
to commemorate the laying of the
first District corner stone.
The stone is badly weathered and
the inscriptions are nearly all illegi-
