Steel, to whom the success of the move ment Is largely due. Among those who are well Informed as to the secn greatest scenic wonders of the United States, there la no doubt but that there would be a substantial agreement upon the following: Niagara Falls, the Natural Bridge Jn Vir ginia, tho Mammoth Cavo In Kentucky, the geysers of the Yellowstone National Park, the Grand Canyon of the Colorado, tho Yosemlte "Valley of California, and the Crater Lakereglon of Oregon. Many of thesfc have rivals, but there has not been dlscoiered anywhere In the United States a lake which even remotely sug gests comparison with Crater Lake. The very fact of Its remarkable origin suggests a forclblo reason why such a wonderful feature of natural scenery should be made accessible to tho tourists of tho United States and become the center of one or the most attractive of the Nation's parks. To tho casual visitor, even, who makes his pllgrlmagothlther, tho fact that before the lake existed, a snowy mountain stretched Its peak skyward and vied In its beauty with Its sister peaks. Is a source of Interest and wonder. The moderns who pitch their tents near the sides of the lake will havo In their minds' eyes a picture ot the terrific eruption of Mount Pelee, and they will listen In wonder to the scientists who tell of tho outbreaks of Mount Ma zama In prehistoric times. They will feel a sense of awe when they realize that subterranean fires melted away that grand peak until It fell Into the cavernous depths, leaing the deep pit that Isnow filled with clear water, to 4C00 feet at Its greatest depth. The ancient phenomenon would be paralleled If the Titanic forces of nature would truncate the peak of Mount Hood at Crater Rock, leave the steep sides, hollow out the surface of the top of the cone, and fill thl3 pltwlth one of the most beautiful lakes In the world. Tho prehistoric observer who climbed the summit of Scott Peak, 9122 feet high, a few miles east of CraterLake, would have seen a snow peak, like Shasta or Hood, Instead of the picturesque lake of today. Picture hl3 -surprise If he were to return and sweep tho horizon for a lew of the mountain of his day, to And that it had literally dropped out of sights Geolo gists who' havo climbed about tho slopes of Crater Lake have made estimates of the height of this peak, then unnimed, but now dignified by tho name of Mount Mazamo. They have formed these esti mates by comparison. Mount Shasta and the rlm-of Crater Lake have been found to ba of equal diameter at an altitude of 00 feet, and, being composed of essen tially the same lavas, and being formed In the same way, the conclusion has been reached that they would rise to nearly equal elevations. The gentler slopes about the rim, however, suggest that Shasta was the higher of the two peak3. In discussing the question of the disap pearance of the peak, J. S. Dlller, of the United States Geological Survey, says: 'The problem at once arises. How was this vast mountain, nearly six miles In diameter and possibly 6000 feet or more In height above the present rim of the lake, removed, and tho stupendous pit now oc cupied by Crater Lake produced? If it was blown out by an explosion, we should find an enormous rim of fragmental ma terial commensurate with the basin; but if It sank by escape of its molten inte rior through a lower outlet, tho rim would be small and composed of Imbricated and overlapping sheets of lava and fragmental material. In fact, the rim is small and composed in large measure of solid lava sheets. It Is evidently the peripheral part of the mountain's base, and not duo to accumulation at the time the basin orig inated. Major C E. Dutton, who made a special survey of Crater Lake, compares it to Kllauea, of Hawaii, whose origin he attributes to the subsidence of th ma terial In molten state, owing to its escape from some lower level. After the -volcanic peak. Mount Mazama, had "v lrtually destroyed itself by the fierce heat of its hidden fires, and been en gulfed in the abyss, tho volcanic actllty continued at the bottom of the pit. "Wiz ard Island, which rises 845 feet above tho surface near tho western border of the lake and forms a picturesque bit of tho scenery, is a small volcano compared to tho size of Its predecessor. Although tho freshness of tho lava and the absence of erosion indicates that the volcano was active in comparatively recent geologic times, yet the presence of so large a growth of fir trees pro-yes that the erup tion must have occurred centuries ago. t- STORIES ABOUT -PEOPLE Got crnor Flower'H Candidacy. (Brooklj'n Eagle.) NOW tliat the New York Democrats are hopefully considering the possi bility, of electing a Governor in Novem ber, the following stories concerning tho last Democratic Governor of the state will be of Interest: In tho Summer of 18SL when tickets were being liberally manufactured in ad vance of conventions, Roswell P. Flower was met in "Washington by a prominent Brooklynlte, who said to him: "Mr. Flower, a tjood many people In our city think the nomination for Gov ernor is yours for the asking. Now, while the Brooklyn Democracy is solidly for Chapln. it does not believe that ho can be nominated; therefore, we'd like to know just how jou regard tho talk of a ndmlnation for jourself. Are you en couraging it?" Flower's eyes twinkled a moment, and then he replied in this direct fashion: "Up "Watertown way there was a man who got himself arrested for dog-steal-fng. The Judge eyed him severely and sold: " 'How did you come by that dog?' " 'Why, your honor, ho Jest f ollered me home.' " 'Did you try to atop hlmr, '"I did. " 'How did you do itr '"Well, I yelled and threw things "at him " 'What did you throw? " 'Crackers and sugar. "So." laughed the Brooklyn interviewer, "you are the dog-stealer and" "And the nomination Is the well, good day," and tho next Governor of New York disappeared from the scene. When Flower was a "Bmall boy he fell into an airhole while skating. A com panion fished him out with much diffi culty. Quite a crowd -witnessed the life- Savlnc PXnlnlf nnr? nnnlnuAoA It Tn ..o time Flower pcre was Informed of tho J mciaent, ana started out to thank tho rescuer. "My boy," he began. "It was a very gallant act, and one for which my san and I will always thank you as long as we lle. I am a poor man, and can't re ward ou asl should like, but remember that I hai e a high appreciation of your pluck. It was a very brave act, and X do not see how one so small as you dared to risk 3 our life in doing It." "Well," muttered the youthful hero, "he had my skates on and I dasen't lose 'em, or dad -nould lia-ve licked me." tached, was sent back to the Importunate caller. And now this harmless and perfectly truthful bit of paper has been litho graphed and copies are being scattered broadcast with tho Information that the Speaker of tho House of Representatives runs a saloon. upon the "wagon man," who ha.d lugged the prisoner into the station, he said: "Now tell me 'the truth. Did. Blank take this fellow to the signal box or did he take Blank there?" The reply of the wagon man has not been recorded. niHtory Set Right. President Henry Smith Pritchett, of the Massachusetts Institute ot Technol ogy. In responding to the toast "Science," at the Columbia alumni dinner, told this apropos story: "Science," he said, "is not a word to conjure with. In a Boston school the other day a teacher said to a small boy: " 'Who won the battle of New Or leans?' " 'Why, Jim Corbett, of course,' was the answer. " 'How did it happen?' "asked the teach er, not placing Corbe'tt's name, and think ing to set the boy right. "'He won, was the prompt reply, 'be cause he had more science than the other .guy. " Attack on Speaker Henderson. Temperance papers are attacking Speaker Henderson because he has as sumed responsibility for the Houee res taurant with its bar. Some time ago a representative of a Chicago temperance Journal asked an in terview with Mr. Henderson at a mo ment when he was presiding over the House. The Interview was, of course, , refused, but the correspondent succeeded in getting his card to tlje Speaker with this inquiry scribbled on it: "Who is responsible for the House res taurant?" Seizing one of the slips used for voting purposes, Mr. Henderson wrote upon it: "I gave tho permit," and this, with the printed signature, "D. B. Henderson," at- "SVhen O'Reilly Was a Sergcnnt. Weird are some of the tales told of Captain Miles O'Reilly what time he was a Sergeant .over in the old Twelfth Pre cinct, now known as the Fifty-second. It was in those days that Captain Folk, now dead, used to say of him, "Queer chap, O'Reilly. Don't drink, don't smoke, don't chew. He can't bo good either for man or beast." One day a citizen of tho neighborhood came to the station-house with a com plaint against some bojs who sadly dis turbed the peace as well as endangered windows by plajlng ball In a vacant lot; O'Reilly was told to look into the mat ter. When the Sergeant visltl the lot in question he dlsco ered that across ono corner of it teamsters were hauling loads of sand dug from a near-by cellar. Now. O'Reilly was ever politic In some things. He remembered his own boyhood days and declined to administer the law harsh ly in thlB particular Instance. "Say, you," he yelled at the foreman of the teamsters, "come here." Tho fore man came with a query in his eje. O'Reilly laid his hand on his shoulder and talked confidentially in his ear. The foreman smiled and called six of his truckmen about him. He gave them some Instructions, and within the next half hour six large cartloads of sand were strewn across the dlamonded-fleld. "You see," said O'Reilly, In explaining matters to tbo Captain, "I knew the boys would never take the trouble to level off all that sand, and while it stay3 there they can't play ball." "You've a great head. Miles," was Cap tain Dyer's brief comment. After a while O'Reilly Jef t the Twelfth and finally brought up In the Canarsle Precinct While there he had under him a very lazy man who had never been known to make an arrest. One night, when Miles was on desk duty, there was a call for the wagon sent in from a sig nal box on the post patroled by the lazy officer. The wagon was rushed off and in due time returned with a common drunk. "So Blank has made an arrest at last." mused the Sergeant as he took the vic tim's pedigree; then turning suddenly Oat of the Months of Babes. A story is told by Francis Bazley Lee. tho historian, editor of "The History of N-w Jersey." that should dollght collec tors of literary humor. It is to Mr. Leo that Hallio Ermlnle Rives, the novelist, has dedicated her new Revolutionary ro mance, "Hearts Courageous," and nat urally the Lee family has been much In terested In the popularity the story Is winning, and has discussed It often in the family circle. Mr. Lee has a 3-year-old daughter, whoso precocities are a ne er-falling source of delight. Her father the other evening heard her singing in her baby key and with huge enthusiasm, a song strangely familiar, and yet one that he could not exactly place. "Rhoda," he called, "what Is that you are singing?" "Why, papa!" she exclaimed. "Don't you know that? That's V 'Hearts Courageous, cleft for me, Let me hide myself In thee. " THE TWO EXTREMES. They Were Revealed by Ansircr to a "Boy Wanted" Ad. Washington Star. Tho "Boy Wanted" sign had been 6n exhibition In the front showcase of the gents' furnishing store all the morning; and the proprietor of the plant, a bluff, hearty, out-and-out, somewhat slangy In dividual, had had troubles of his own in examining Juvenile applicants who pre sented themselves for the Job. They had all been of such a truly good stamp aB to cause the proprietor of the store the most intense weariness. They all had that scrubbed, sheepish look, such as is worn by boys whoso mothers send them out to look for Sum mer vacation work. And they all talked as If they'd been tipped off by their mothers what to say In asking for a boy's Job. Not acting their own parts, therefore, it was impossible for them to show up otherwise than as sort of sneaky, hang dog and underhand. They were too Infernally willing to work hard, and for long hours, it struck the man who wanted to employ an errand boy, and they were too unanimous In their ex pressed desire to "help out at home," and they were a whole lot too well primed In their assertions that they Just naturally hated to be Idle during the school vaca tions. The boss of the store was as polite and considerate as It was In him to be In send ing this procession of youngsters away, but for all that he sent them away when he had tried them out and found them to be all of a sort. Finally, along- toward noon, a rather tough-looking young proposition, with a snub nose, freckled face", green eyes and a confident grin, walked in and applied for thr Job. "And what makes j ou think you want a Job, my little man?" Inquired the boss. "Aw, 'cause I need de coin," was the re ply of the freckled boy. ' "Oh, that's It? And what would you do with your pay, pray?" "Aw. blow it o' course wot d'ye t'lnk rd do wit it, send it f de heathen?" "And would you be willing to work faithfully, from 7 In the morning until 6 in the evening, and not keep your eye glued to the clock all the time?" "Well, I'd do me wolk all right, but I'd want t' frame up me getaway w'en de whistle blew all right, at dat." In such kind did the green-eved boy re ply to the queries that were put to him by the boss of the store. "Well." said the latter finally, "I think, my son, I will give you" Right here, however, is tho point where this story turns off from the main road rt professional f unnyism and takes to the tall cactus of dead honest truth. No, the boss of the store did not act as if the tough, frank lad had made a huge hit with him. He did not say to himself, "Well. here. I : least. Is a candid, untutored-by-hls-mother boy that will probably develop Into the real thing." Not much, did he. Conse quently, tho main object of this veracious story, and of all others proceeding from the same source, being the inculcation or a love for strict truthfulness "Well," said tho boss of the store, as the snub-nosed boj's homely face lighted up expectantly. "I think I will give ou about as swift a ride to the front door on the toe of a No. 11 shoe as you're likely to get for the rest of our life, If only for the pur pose of teaching you a little manners, you miserable young whelp, and to sort o ride somo of the toughness out of you," and Inside of Just nine seconds from the boss laBt word tho freckle-faced boy was on the sidewalk, rubbing his person, and a whole lot of his exterior toughness departed. There's a medium stratum in boys. Just as there is in a heap of other things, and by evening the gents' furnishing man had employed a lad who was neither goody goody nor a ruffian. SOCIETY.

Not only are large 'shipments of frogs legs made from this country to the United States, but thero Is a growing de mand for the luxury In many of the largo centers of the Dominion. One of the most successful frog farms is In Ontario. Last year it produced 5000 pounds of dressed frogs' legs and 7000 living frogs for scien tific purposes and for stocking other wat ers. The Deputy Commissioner of Fisheries for Ontario reports that in the past year a number of applications were made to the government for leases of land suitable for this Industry. No licenses were, how ever, granted, and It was found that the territory concerned was already being farmed by a number of people. It Is safe to assume that In the very near future much land now lying Idlo will be stocked with frogs. All that Is necessary for this purpose Is to place a few paired breeders in the water. Natural food Is al most always present In sufficient amount for successful growth. The species considered here to be most profitable, on account of Its size. Is the eastern bullfrog, Rana catcsbiann, which reaches a length of more than eight inches. It begins to breed at the end of threo years, is very productive and reaches a marketable size in four or five years. Only the hind legs are marketed, and they average half a pound a pair in weltjht. They are worth 50 cents a pound, at times to the producer, and the Ameri can dealers take as many as Canada can supply. ' ' The Daffodils. ' ' William 'Wordsworth.
