RED FIRE Oil MI. HOOD
WATCHERS SAY FLARE COULD BE
SEEN ABOUT 10:18 O'CLOCK.
Y. M. C. A. Climbers Who Tried Last
Year to Reach Summit Believed to
Have Accomplished Task.
Red fire burned on the summit of
Mount Hood last night as the tribute
of the party of T. M. C. A. climbers
to Independence day, according to
watchers.
The Mount Hood party froirl the T.
M. C. A. last year planned to carry
red fire to the top pf the peak, but
heavy fog and clouds at the time in
terfered with the display. Last night,
however, their promise of the preceding
year was made good, according to the
testimony of watchers from Council
Crest and other places.,
" A carload of persons on the scenic
railway at the Crest about 10:18 caught
the flare of the red fire on the moun
tain and as soon as their car came to
the landing stage they hurried out onto
the grounds to look at it again, but it
had burned away.
C. A. Finley, manager of the Crest,
says that he thinks there can be no
mistake that it was the expected dis
play of red fire, for the atmosphere
was clear all evening and the peak was
distinctly visible. The flare jyas said
to be of short duration, howlver.
A. M. Grilley, of the physical depart
ment of the T. M. C. A., is the leader of
the party on the mountain.
According to an English scientist, if the
radium in the interior of the earth is In
any way equal to that In the rocks at the
surface the world will grow hotter in time
instead ui colder.
