Jim BRIDGER'S GLASS
MAKES SHIPMENT EAST

A strange rail shipment recently
left Yellowstone National Park for
Clintonville. Wis. Described in the
bill of lading as lone rock. weigh
ing 1900 pounls." the object was
actually volcanic glass and will take
its place along with a section of
the Great Wall of China, petrified
trees and other stony objects in
the Clintonville park.
The rock came from the famous
Obsidian Cliff in Yellowstone, a
mas of black volcanic glass sew
eral hundred feet high which the
celebrated Jim Bridger discovered
about 1880. Bridger's report of
his discovery was accepted for many
years as one of his famous lies
without basis in fact.
The old trapper and guide told
friends that he had shot an elk
several times, apparently without
success. and upon running forward
to attempt a bodily attack on the
animal dashed himself into a wall
of glass. The main highway runs
directly under the cliff, and the
roadway in that place was actually
constructed of glass. The volcanic
rock was heated and then cracked
into tiny fragments when rapidly
cooled by the application of water.
A specimen from Obsidian Cliff
was requested by w. A. Glen, chair
man of the Clintonville Park Com
mission. The Wisconsin City Park
maintains a novel driveway, lined
with similar curiosities.

MOTOR ACCIDENTS FEW
In PARK THIS YEAR

Private automobiles have travelled
the astounding total of 100000
miles in Yellowstone National Park
this summer without a single ia
tality and but half a dozen acct
dents of any importance having oc-
cured.
Nearly 5000 miles of road is
maintained within the park, and
the mileage figure is based upon
the assumption that the 5000
machines that come to Yellowstone
before the end of August took the
$50 mile trip about the Grand
Loop road-just about half of the
distance hat could be travelled.
The Grand Loop road touches all
main points of interest in the park.
Private cars average 3.2 persons
to the vehicle, and have carried
more than 10000 visitors to the
park this year. 1t is probable thai
the number of auto tourists for
this season will equal the entire
number of Yellowstone visitors
last year-154,2S2. Total travel
by rail and auto-has already ex-
ceeded that figure, and should APP
proXimate 100000 at the close of
the season.
The park season closes Septem-
Der goth but roads will remain
open to motorists until barred by
inclement weather, probably about
the middle of October. The hotels
and permanent camps are closed
r. nAa
eral stores and gasoline filling sta
ions remain open at various points
in the park to take care of the
camper. Limited accommodations are
available at Old Faithful and Lake
for persons desiring room and
board.

Mean More Than Any Other Books
Mr.. Barron, still %credulous, con-
tlnued his correspondence with
Madame Galli-Curci for some months.
He learned that soon after she lost
her dear mother she had sought the
Writings of Swedenborg in a desire
to know more about the other world
whence her mother had gone. She
spent the entire summer vacation
studying Swedenborg's Works, and
declared: They have meant, and
mean more to me than anything else
| have ever read"
When Galli-Curci returned from
California Mr.. Barron motored up
into the Catskills to her beautiful
Italian palace, and in an afternoon
with her and her husband, Mr.. Homer
Samuels, he was convinced that CALI
Curci had read and devoured Sweden
borg in a briefer period than any
body had ever done before.
