MOUNT HOOD TARES A SMOKE"
At nine o'clock yesterday morning,
nny person observing Mount Hood could
havo noticed with the naked cyo it
changing cloud of sinoko that hung
upon tin' south side of tlio mountain, fur
above the snow line, nud climbing ut
most to the summit. Observing this
carefully with a glass, it wns plainly to
be von that tlio smoko changed its form
und movement constantly, apparently
louring out of tlio south side of tho
mountain from hnlf to ono-qiiiirtcr of a
mile below tho summit. Thoso who
havo ascended the mountain locate thn
bito of an old crater on tho southwest
side, somu distance below tlio summit.
They havetu cross this locality to make
tho ascent, nnd nlvuiys find sulphur
ous ftimo issuing from tho crovirxui, nnd
tho rocks heated by internal fires.
There is no doubt that Mount Hood
at times sends forth eruptions of smoke,
though sue.li manifestations nro not of
frequent occurrence, or at least 11113 not
often reported. Wo have lived within
view of the inouiitniu for nearly thirty
yearn, and havo only oneo befuie, about
fifteen years ago, been unmiHtnknblo
emission of smoke, which lasted nlxutt
nn hour, aud e.iiuo from tho same part of
tlio mountain that wo observed it yester
day, nud each time tho fact of its being
smoko was not to be doubted. Fifteen
yearn ago the phenomenon oeetirrcd
upon a Winter duy, when thn uky wns
blue, without impede of cloud to fleck it,
and the smoko streamed northwntd from
tho'mouiittiiu in a dcuso bluuk cloud. Wo
have nceii the time when excitement
wns created homo years ugo by tho ru
aior that Mount Hood was smoking.
A crowd gathered on a high roof nud
observed it with glusscs, but tlio phe
nomenon was caused by atmosplicrio
conditions that draw the mists nud fogs
from tho Iowor gorges nnd mado I hem
wreath around the summit. The differ
enco between thin light-coloiod, envelop
ing mist, rising from tho bnso of tho
mountain, and tho black, sulphurous ap
pearance of eruoko pouring directly out
of tho side of it from among thu snows,
was evident to any practical eye. Yes
terday morning tlio sky was olo.ir, with
a slight Iiai, and n few light, llcccy
clouds hanging nbovo thu Cascade range
at iiitorvuU, but tho whole bnso nnd
summit of Mount Hood wcro clear of
them, while tho uumistaknblo wieath of
sulphur smoke hung just below thu very
iiummit, remaining there for over two
hours, contorted by tho movement of
llio winds. Towards noon fleecy clouds
ouveluped tlio mountain nnd for 11 whilo
tho dillereneo between cloud nnd smoko
wns distinctly visiblc, but afterwards
thn outlines of tho snowy peal, wero ob
scured nnd when they wore plain again,
at 2 o'clock P. M., there was no smoko
to bo been.
