THOUGHT HE'D FOUND HELL
Man Who Discovered Americas Most
Wonderful Natura. Curiosity Was
Considered Insane.

At recent gathering in Milwaukee,
a well-known minister was called on
to tell story, and this is what he
told:
did you ever hear Of CoulteTs
hell? OF the two uen lost by the
great Lewis and Clark expedition Of
1903 on its long journey through the
Northwest, one was man named
Coulter. He was captured by Indians,
who stripped him and set him to run.
ming the gantlet
."Outrunrfng their blows, he snatched
spear from the last Indian, killed
him with 1t, and ran into the noun:
tains, naked and wounded, but at last
free and armed. Wandering toward
the southeast he presently found him.
self in a land where the forces Of na'
ture appeared to have gone mad to.
gether. Rivers from which he sought
to drink ran hot water, boiling foun-
tains gushed hundreds Of feet In the
air, VOLCANOES Of black mud vomited
at him. bubbling fountains OF snow
white mud gushed around, with 9th.
ers Of crimson and blue and green
a mountain Of pure sulphur crystals
rose on one hand, and from beside e
stream rose another composed OF
black glass, almost as clear as win
dow pane. "
AT last; escaping from the place, he
was found by some trappers, who
clothed him and took him to st. Louis
where they reported him as one whose
mind had been wrecked by his expert
ences. Wherever he told OF the fright
full country which he swore he had
seen, men roared with mirth at the
yarn, and made him tell and reten it
till within a few years it went all over
the West as an example Of the effect
of the horrors Of being lost on the hu
man mind. It was commonly knowr
az the story Of Coulters hell and
under that name it frequently ap
peared In eastern papers in the early
'30s and 40. Coulter himself finally
died, regarded to the last as hope
less maniac.
"And then, In 1869, some Montana
trappers wandered into the region and
came back with the astounding tale
that Coulter had told the truth, and
had never been insane at all. The
government Immediately rushed sol
diers and scientists into the country
and before long it became the Yellow
stone National park. And that is ths
story Of Coulter's hell.
1T strikes me, however" ADDED thu
minister, that the story has a mora
to the effect that there is a certain
other hell, in whose existence some
people still do not believe, but O
whose reality they are likely yet t
learn"
