WHERE DEATH LURKS ALWAYS
Bullets Sing Without ceaslng, and
Birds Sometimes, in mo Mans
Land" on Battle Front.

But 1t is wonderful thing, that
strip we call No Mans Land, running
from the North sea to Switzerland
500 miles. All the way along the line,
day and night, without moments
cessation, through all these long
months, mems eyes have been glaring
across that forsaken strip, and lead
has been flying to and fro over it.
To show yourself means death. But
1 have heard lark trilling over it in
the early morning as sweetly as any
bird ever sung over an English
meadow. A lane of death 500 miles
long, strewn from end to end with
the remains of soldiers And to either
side of it all through those 500 miles,
a warren of trenches, dugouts, saps,
tunnels. underground passages, inhab-
tied, not by rabbits, but by millions
of rats, it is true, and millions of hiv-

TOO KEEN ON THEIR SPORT
Anglers Would Have Done Better to
Have Read the Other Side of the
Notice Board.

The disciples of Izaak Walton had
found perfect stream for the exercise
of their art, and they settled them
selves for a days fishing, underterred
by notice board. The board, which
had been painted by an amateur, read
'Notiss-These grounds is privet
and yer carn't fish ere. These fish
amt the kind to be tempted by
wurms, and there"
Here space ran out, and the injunc-
ton was left uncompleted. For two
hours the anglers sat by the stream,
tempting the trout, not with worms,
but with the very latest and most ex-
pensive bait"
But nothing happened. Then sud-
denly appeared the owner of the
grounds and the author of the notice
board.
Hi, you twol Ave yer read that
board?"
"Well, yes, we did. But er - we
couldn't find your house, or we would
have"
"Oh, it don't matter l on'y thought.
seein' yer afishin' there, that you
'adn't read both sides of the board. If
you ave, of course, go on amusing
yourselvesp'
A hasty glance at the other side of
the board showed that it continued the
exhortation begun on the front, as
follows:

karet and Siywits plateaus is the
 Grand canyon proper. This is about 22O miles long, and averages q mile
 in depth and aboutsten miles in width, from rim to rim. The Kaibab and Kanab divisions are each about 90
 miles in length, while the Uinkaret is 2J miles, and the Sivwitz 7J miles, Home Of Old Cliff DweiIers. Evidences of former human occupa- ton are found everywhere in the Grand Canyon region, but as few of these ruins are well preserved there Is nothing especially spectacular about them, save as of historic import. Here at one time abOunded crude stone houses. Some of these ruins are perched high under overhanging lodges
 which still show the blackening of the smoke from their fires; others lie l among huge blocks of debris that have fallen from the cliffs; still others stand in the open, away from any na- tural shelter. The only well-pre- served shelter are the old stOrehouses,
 built high up among the crevices in
 the canyon walls.
 And into the depths of this wonder land plunges Bright Angel trail,
 named by Major Powell. It is one of
 the few trails that permit human be- | ings to enter the land of splendor.

races, running east and west along the southern border of Utah. These have been carved by erosion out of the high CT strata of the plateau and rise in huge steps northward 10 elevations of II 600 feet or more. The southern bor- der of this district Is marked by an abrupt descent to lower country plateau strata.
 The northern portion of the Grand Canyon district is divided into five minor platforms or plateau blocks by great lines of fracture or feXure, which trend north and south and are roughly paralleled.
 Long Series of Canyons.
 The Colorado river crosses the pla- teau province from northeast to south west. IL has carved a series of can yons whose total length exceeds 500 miles. All these canyons are clear cut, deep gashes in nearly level plat forms and their step-like walls de SCend abruptly by alterations of bold Chffs and narrow ieuges. The river at the bottom carries the drainage from the whole western front of the Rocky mountains in Colorado and southwestern Wyoming. Because of the general impassability and inhospi. table character of the bordering des- erts, these canyons form a barrier to human travel more effective than the Rocky mountains. The Colorado river is unabridged for TOO miles, distance about equal to the distance between New York and Chicago.
 In the high-hlocked plateaus of the Grand Canyon district the canyons reach their continuation In size apd grandeur. The pathway of the river across these plateaus is the most re- markable valley in the world. The section that trayerses the marble plat form is known as the Marble canyon, being co miles in length.

@ OWN Bright Angel trail strag-
 gle the hardy burrOs. Then
 up Bright Angel trail they
 scramble again. Part of the way their saddles were empty. where the trail clings so closely to the pre- cipitous wall of the Grand canyon of the Colorado that there is no room for a rider to stick on. Winding it's tor tuous way upward. twisting about rocks, clutching the mountainside by Inches, the trail gradually climbs the steep ascent from the river bed of the rushing Colorado to the heights above, 6 GOO feet above, a mile straight up in the blue from the dark depths of esrth's most wonderful treasure chasm of beauty.
 You have not seen America until you have descended Bright Angel trail in Arizona, writes Earl William Gage in the Utica Saturday Globe.
 Nowhere else on earth exists such a depression into the surface of the earth, from 1000 to 6.OO0 feet deep. The canyon of the Yellowstone is tri- fling in comparison with the Grand canyon of the Colorado river in Ari- ZCna. The great gorge Is 211 miles long, varying from @ to 13 miles in width, the maximum depth being G. GOO feet. Here the tourist stands at the top of the mountain peak at the start and to gain the victory land must descend 5000 feet of sheer rock. Elsewhere, we stand at the foot of the mountains and must ascend. At Grand canyon the rules that regulate tourists are reversed in everything.
 The Grand Canyon of the Colorado Is the greatest thing in the world - says one writer. II is absolutely un- paralleled and it's beauties and grand eur are far beyond the grasp of the writer or the artist. More command ing than Yosemite or Yellowstone, more beautiful than majestic Niagara, more mysterious in its depth than the
Tombstone epitaph., 1916-10-01

Himalayas in their majestic height, the Grand canyon remains the first natural wonder of the world.
 Natures Titanic Struggle.
 While we may say that the Grand canyon is truly canyon, it is rather an intricate system of canyons, each subordinate to the river channel in the midst. The river channel, lying more than & OOO feet below the vision. seem inely is a rather insignificant trench, attracting the eye more by reason of Its sOmber tone and mysterious sug- gestion than by any appreciable char scteristic of the chasm. It is perhaps five miles distant in a straight line, end its uppermost rims nearly 4.oc feet beneath the observer, whose measuring capacity is entirely made uuate to the demand made by such magnitudes. Here some great battles of nature once took place. which has left its effect strikingly visible. yet of which we know nothing. The sur rounding country looks for all the world like the mouths of thousand still volcanoes, while the coating over the surface of the peculiarly shaped depfessions is like volcanic ash in tex rure.
 The Grand Canyon district lies in northwestern Arizona and coincides with a local uplift, or structural swell, in the Colorado plateau. Its area Is about 16OOO square miles. Over prae- ticaIly all of this nearly level expanse one geologic formation, the kaibab limestone, is surface rock. Along the eastern border of the district a sharp downward bend, known as mono cline. carries the beds to lower level, where they resume their nearly hori- zontal attitude and continue eastward beneath the higher strata of the pla- ,esu. The upward edges of these higher faces gre known as Echo cliffs. :,
 On the north the district is walled :, by anoshsr line of cliffs and ter
