SPRING LIKE GEYsER.
Flows Very Strong FOR Twenty Min
utes and Then Rests.

LARAMIE, wyo., Dec. 23.-Upon
his return from an inspection trip in
wyoming. A. C. Mccain, assistant dis
trict forester. reported that he had
rediscovered a strange geyser-like
spring of clear and cold water about
seven miles from Alton.
The spring flows with great volume
for twenty minutes and then ceases
for the same length Of time.
This spring furnishes about half
the volume of Swift creek, and play
ed a great part in the failure OF the
sawmill enterprise several years ago,
according to Mr.. Mccain.
A settler established a mill on
Swift creek. When he turned the wa
ter into the millrace his troubles be-
gan. For twenty minutes the volume
was sufficient to turn the wheels and
then for the next twenty minutes ev-
erybody was idle.
