VALLEY OF 10000 SMOKES.

One of the worlds greatest and
least known of natural wonder is the
Valley of Ten Thousand Smokes near
Mount Katernai in Alaska, brief de-
scription of which is given in the Cen
fury by Andrew ]. Stone. The valley
is a volcanic depression, from which
steaming and smoking gas and lava
jets leap into the air by the thousands,
some of them no larger than a pencil.
Sulphur flowers of every known
color and tint have been scattered by
the unrest of the internal fires along
the valley walls and floors, until look
ing at it from distance 1t seems one
vast welter of paint from a hundred
tubes mixed by a mad artist with only
a suggestion of a theme. With care
one may walk about and mingle with
the pools and sprouts, and watch with
marveling eyes streams Of boiling
water rush into tinp lakes from one
direction, while cold streams carrying
floating ice rush in from another, and
where the one small body Of water
carries every degree Of heat from
freezing up to PIP degrees Fahrenheit
