SUpplnr of the Prk by th Ueological
Survey.
A ft pioneer In tho field, tho United
States KeoloKlcal survoy hns mado a
careful topoBrnphleal survey of tho Cra
ter I-ako national park. Pearson Chap
man, Kovernment topoKrnphor, spent two
fluid sousons In tho park and surveyed
every peak, slope and valloy, and tho
resulting map, with BO-foot contour lines,
Is boltiK engraved and will bo Issued by
tho survey about Juno 1.
from this topographic map ono gets
an Idoao of thA romnrkahlo trugody
vhlch must lmvo occurred In tho dim
past, when a mountain probably rivaling
Mount Shasta In height disappeared Into
the bowels of tho earth. Tho surfaco of
Crater JmUo Is 8177 fcut ahoya sea lovel;
the lako Is nearly six miles In diameter
nnd Is Hurrounded by n rim of ragged
rock rising from 10Q0 to 2000 foot above
it. The lako Is In many placcH neatly
2000 feot deep and Us surfaco Is broken
only by Wizard Island, tho result of thu
final gasp of tho dying volcanic forces.
Wizard Island, a cinder cono which
rises nearly 1000 feot abovo the lake, Ih
Itself a yoiuie nnd perfect volcnno, hav
ing a little crator of Its own. Huvornl
other dmnller cones wero pushed upward,
hut nono nppv-ar above tho water's sur
faco.
At ono time It was a question whothur
(his ancient mountain, which Iihh been
restnrud In fancy and mimed Mount Mu
zaniiwdld not nxplodo and blow nwuy
In ashes and Hvnrln llko Krnkatou or
VuUa, but this theory has bum ovoi
tuinnd by geologists, who find unmistak
able evIdencA that tha mountain sank
back Into tho earth. Thu surrounding
country, according to J. H. Dlller, n gnol
OKlnt of tho United fltntoH geological
survey, Indicates unuuestlouably that at
some- time during tho Tertiary period,
when muny of tho high puakH of tho
Cascade range woro flaming beacoim,
great strcamH of inoltoij rock Issued
from Mount Miuaina. nrcoinpnnliiil by
thunderous exploslonH and oJeqtlonH of
pumice whloh today covers uio minis
surfaco fur miles.

Tho later of these eruptploiiH occur
red, It Ih bolleved, during tho glacial
period, thu great BtreaniH of Ico and
lava alternating nnd pausing stupend
ous conflicts between tho two elements,
filling tho air with steam clouds and
flooding the lower plains. Later eamo
tho final convulsion which demolished
tho upper mile of Mount Matnma.
When Crater l.nko leally pomes Into
Its own, people will low across Its beau
tiful blue, broiwo anil purple wateis,
Blanco up at tho towering cliffs, and
realUe that they are In tho very Inte
rior of ono uf tho greatest extinct vol
canon In the world. Tho collapse of
Mount Miuamu Ih stated to lmvo beiu
tho crowning ovent In o hlstoiy of the
Cascade region.
Hltuated In tho midst of an otherwise
waterless region, this lake furnishes the
undergiound water supplies for many
streams radiating fioui It In ahuoHt ev
ery illieullon. Most of the approaches
to the lake lend through splendid for
ests, valley meadows and nutuuil pas
tures. Vim Are Incomparably Impreiilvo.

In tho goveiuinent survey the park
was surrounded by 130 lion boundary

NKW YOllIC, May 11. Tho assertion
by a number of naval officers' who have
carefully studied tho subject that the
real reusou why It hi becoming almost
Impossible to keep men In the navy is
dun to modern conditions Iihh nroused
tho naval chiefs, and there Ih much
talk of a general Investigation of the
subject being ordered. Heretofore, ut
least one-third of tlio men who enlisted
in tho navnl service wero willing to re
main there ami muko It their lifo work.
During the last three years, however,
tho number has been steadily falling
off until today only a small percentage
of first enlistment men are willing to
take on again. This means thnt there'
Ih it lack of epcrlenccd men on tho big
ships nild unless the conditions ure rem
edied the peisnnnol of tho servlco Is cer
tain to suffer,
One of tho officers now on duty at
tho Brooklyn navy yard, u veteran (if
muny years' experience, says tho real
reason Is the lestrlctlon of tho mnn's
liberty On the old worships It was the
rule thatt heio was to be no moro Hun
day work than wiih necessary. Tho men
wero permitted u day to write letters
home, lounge about the ship, und gen
erally rest up for the coming week. Un
der modern conditions ull this Is
changed. The men are worked hurd and,
It Is charged, unnecessarily not only
through tlio week but also nn Sunday
and there Is little to distinguish ono day
rrom another In tho service. Tho Inov
itublo result, according to the officers
at tho yard is thut men who have
served their enlistment nro louth lo
continue In the service.
Tho high pressure under which tho
men ure compelled to work from early
in January until late In October Is nlso
said to be responsible for Increasing de
sertions. The men get stale, It Is point
ed out, lose their Interest, their spon
taneity und their mental alertness. They
become more llko machines than men
ami when they get ashore on leave eas

The First Cemut Wae Taken by Moiea

There Is n record of n census In
China as far back as tho year 20-12
II. a and of one In Japan In tho Inst
century before Christ Under tho con
stitution of Solon the citizens of Ath
ens woro divided and registered In four
classes, according to the amount of
their tnsnblo property or Income. The
Itotrinn census was burdened with
more statistics than any of these, how
ever it had ItH origin under Servlus
I'ulllus, sixth king ut Home, and was
an affair or much solemnity. Kvcry
citizen had to appear upon the Campus
Martlus and declare upon oath his
mime and dwelling and the vnluc of
his property under the penalty of hav
ing his goods condscnted.
The most ancient statistical record
of n census Is found In the Hlble. Tho
census was tnken by .Moses In the
wilderness, and, as shown by the first
chapter of Numbers, the enumeration
must have been very simple. "Take
ye," snys UiIh account, "the sum of all
the congregations of the children of
Israel, after their families, by the
hmiso of their fntlfers, with the num
ber of their names. eveTy male by
their pells: from twenty years old nnd
upward, all that are able to go forth
-to war In Israel; thou and Anron shall
number them by their armies." This
census wns nn alfalr that must have
been soon over, lasting no longer thnn
one day, being merely a counting of
the heads or the lighting men. The
women nnd children nnd cripples nnd
the old men wero not Included: "nei
ther were tho l.evltes numbered among
them," Those who did stand up to
bo numbered totaled 003,1550. Now
