The iron manufacturers of Pennsyl vania have been asked, through . the medium of the National Association oi Manufacturers to submit proposals to the government of Venezuela for an iron' graveyard in which to reinter 25. 000 bodies. The proposal is novel with iron industries of this state, although there are a few iron cemeteries in the southern cities, says - the New Yorli Sun. The graveyards, particularly in Car acas, heretofore have been built oi stone, but these have proved unsatis factory. They were not waterproof. They could not be made so; at least the skill of the average Venezuelan failed in this direction. When the Venezu elans came to look into the wonders on display in the Manufacturers associa tion's sample warehouse at Caracas they decided that American ingenuity would solve the problem of the proper care of the dead. The water persisted in percolating through the rock bar riers. These were as costly as they were insufficient. The Venezuelans have become tired of building stone graveyards. They have been erected at great expense of marble and granite, and it is believed that iron will answer every purpose. But it must be made waterproof, and Mr. Nagle, of the Manufacturers asso ciation, said to-day he did not doubt that Pennsylvania mechanics could fur nish a structure that would answer every purpose.

' Barren as the place really is, the artist's eye would revel in the beautiful effects on the. snowy jokulls, the twi light softening shades of mauve, greens ana grays on the distant lava peaks, and the luminous midnight sky. The intensity of the blue water of lake or ocean is superb, and the mighty water falls are grand. Ana the geyser fields All the warm tints, from cream to rus set, are found in the mineral deposits around the basin of the Great Geyser, Little Geyser, Stokkr (the "churn), , and the Little Stokkr, while Blesi (the blue one) is lined with ex quisite white, like porcelain, making it a fitting vessel for the cooking of food, and for furnishing boiling water for our tea and coffee. It was so smooth and beautiful that I seemed to be mu tilating something rare and beautiful when I chipped off pieces of its lining but I knew they would be valuable Souvenirs, and the uneasy, bubbling .water would soon amend the deficiency The mud pools on this plain are the most dangerous, for they spout hot mud diagonally out of the earth. Coming upon them in one direction they are not seen, and many a visitor has gone home with a scalded foot. The hydraulic display is now very fitful and inconsict erate tourists have injured the spout ing lountains ay loaaing stones into them to see them cast out, so you must take your tent with you and encamp on the plain to await the pleasure ot their majesties. Blesi will serve you while waiting. The Great Geyser had not spouted for a week when we were there, and such surliness indicated a near activity. The water spouted un usually high when it finally appeared 150 feet, and showed all the tints of the rainbow, majestic at the same time and mysterions. It played for 15 minutes and then its " beautiful cascades sub sided in a feathery mist, a refined and graceful withdrawal. International, A Beautiful Skin.
