The reve lation of these secrets to the utllKy of man is the touchstone of human progress. Invisible currents of po tential energy ran rampant through the universe. In ages jpast their battles were fought, and today we read their history upon the ocean :c cliffs, the volcanic cones, the glacier paths, or the mountain lakes. Upon no spot of earth can a more Interesting page of nature's history he found than in the Crater Lake region of southern Oregon. A mighty wound in the brow of the Cascades, Crater Lake momorializes the awful battle of nature's forces by which southern Oregon was partially forged and shaped. i No human tongue can, with word or tone, reveal the feelings of awe and snbllmlty that enwraps the per-i precipice and started his camp fire. Here he lay down to commune with the Great Spirit. Sleep closed his eyes. Soon strange voices arose from the waters, weird sounds filled the air. When he awoke, the sun was high In the heavens. He arose and Joined his tribe far down the moun tain. At night, he came again; an irresistible power seemed to call htm back. Again, he slept till morn; each visit seemed to increase the charm. The voices were soothing to his spirit. After many moons spent on the cliffs, he climbed down to the lake and bathed his limbs In Its wa ters. . Frequently he saw mysterious beings glide to the surface; they re sembled his brethren, except they lived In the water. Again and again he returned to spend the night and bathe In the lake.

EARLY MORNING BLAZE DESTROYS RANCH BARN Early Sunday morning fire com pletely destroyed a barn on the Al bert Johnson fruit ranch at the cor ner of Maple and Chestnut streets. Two sets of double harness, four tons of hay, two gas engines, a mow er, a buggy and half a ton of barley were also lOBt In the fire. One set of harness and the buggy belonged to Mr. Bechtel, an employe of Mr. Johnson. The barn was In the mid dle of a cherry orchard, and 20 or 25 trees were so badly damaged by the heat from the fire that they will not bear this year, Mr. Johnson says, and considers this a greater loss than the barn and all its contents. Two horses, which were In the barn, were rescued by Mr. Oliver, a neighbor, who was the first to see the blaze, and rushed to the barn. He saved the animals from the blazing struc ture only with the greatest difficulty. Insurance In the sum of $500 was carried ofl the brn, but no Insur ance was carried on the contents. The total approximate loss is about $1500.

Shadows of clouds and cliffs reflected in the water, have often bean mistaken for monstrous sea serpents, while the legends of the Klamath Indians people the dark caves of the lake with Llaos, or spirits. According to the favorite legend of this Indian tribe: Many, many moons ago, long before the paleface appeared to disturb the peace of the proud natives of the forest, when the deer were plentiful and the brooks teemed with fish, a band of brave Klamaths, while on a hunting expedition, came suddenly upon a huge cavern In the mountain top. The braves were struck dumb by Its remarkable walls and majestic pro portions. With spirits subdued and quaking with fear, they stealthily crept up to Its edge and gazed Into its fathomless depths. They con ceived It to be a lake, the awful still ness of which was appalling. Some thing within told them the Great Spirit dwelt there, and they dared not remain. Bowed with reverence they crept down the mountainside and camped far away. By some mysterious and unac countable Influence, one young brave was Induced to return. In the dead of night, he climbed up the moonlit mountain to the very brink of the brethren. The mysterious waters gave him power far greater than that dread haunts the Klamath of today, who shuns Crater Lake as the abode of the angry Llaos. In ages past, there arose on the present site of Crater Lake a mighty monarch of the mountains. Lifting his hoary head far into cloudland, he looked down upon the snowy man tles of Hood and Shasta. A sentinel of the Westland, be cools his brow in the air above Everest, the king of the East. Perhaps no human eye measured his altitude; no voice be spoke his grandeur. A silent mon arch, be ruled o'er a silent realm. Then came the mighty battle of na ture's forces. The bosom of the mountain heaved and trembled with the earthquake shock; streams of liquid fire seared his spotless brow. Great seaB of lava were hurled upon his kingdom below. The elements seemed bent on his destruction. There Is a mighty quiver, his founda tions gives way; down, down, down, plunges the mountain monarch Into the very bowels of the earth. Above him yawns a black, Jagged and smoky chasm, a veritable hell on earth. With his fall, the forces be come silent, the cliffs cooled, the pitying waters gathered to lave bis scorched remains. Thus was formed the beautiful, sublime and awe-In spiring Crater Lake one of earth's marvels. The Ingenuity of nature never conceived a xhrlne of more Im pressive solemnity. Stand upon tb summit of Llao rock and gaze two thousand feet below to the surface of the fathomless waters. Feeling hitherto Innate will awaken within you to respond to the grandeur of nature's masterpiece. NOTICE FOR PUBLICATION (Publisher) 011486 Department of the Interior, U. S.
