QUAKES IN THE P A R K . Seismic D istubance Said to H ave Occurred in Y ellowstone Park. Dr. Ofcades H. Plummer, of this city, has just returned from the Yellowston National Park, where he went to look oyer the stock of the Park Transportation company, says a Bozeman special to the Helena Independent. The doctor reports that a series or earth quakes have been ielt in the park during the last few weeks, one of which was one of the most terrific eruptions since the discovery of the park. The main road south of Norris geyser basin caved in for a long distance and to an unknown depth. In one place there re mains a huge gap in the earth about seventy-leet wide and prob ably several hundred leet in length. Marks left by the recent earthquake are plaiuly visible in a number of places. Large chan deliers and lamps in the hotel at Norris basin were knocked down and two persons in the building at the time were very much fright ened. The course of the road at the basin will have to be mater ially ehanged, as the damage is so extensive that it can never be re built It is reported that at the time of the principal quake the vibra tion of the earth could be felt for several minutes. Parts of the park further away have not been heard from, on account of the im mense snows. Above the Mam moth hot springs there is a solid bed of snow 6even or more feet deep. Dr. Plummer reports that the mammoth Excelsior geyser, which has not sent forth its im mense stream of water for many years, is very active and that its great crater has filled with water. There are always changes in the condition of the springs ever win ter, but this season the changes have been greater than for years, possibly on account of the recent quakes. .... . — ^ The H en that Lays Watermelons Facts Briefly P u t.

Our Flossie, a little city girl, was spending a month in the coun try, and the second evening after her arrival was taken out to see the milking. “Well,” she said, when a glass of warm milk was handed he, “that’s the first time I ever saw a milk wagon with four legs.” Hens and eggs were ob jects of interest to her also,but she did not see a turkey until she had made the rounds of the henery,and then she frightened up a great old gobbler in the melon patch. He made a rush for the fence, and she fell over a watermelon. 1What’s ‘ that, Flossie?” inquired her moth er. “I don’t know,” she said, as she brushed he dress; “but guess it’s the kind of hen that lays watermelons.” — Detroit Free Press. ___________ Jtipans Tabules purify th e blood.
