[Alta California.] THE GEYSERS OF THE LOWSTONE. YEL Cor. Detroit Post and Tribune. Most of the great geysers are regular in their performance, but some are al together unreliable in their goings off. When one st arts the cry goes out and is repeated from one end of the camp to the other, giving the name of the exhibitor. “There she goes” has but one meaning—it is good old 1 aithful. “Bee-hive! Boe-hive!” means that the Bee-hive is beginning to spout; and “Grund! Grand!” indicates that the Grand is ready for business. The names I have given indicate the appear ance of some of the cones from which the water springs, or the peculiarity of their spoutings. Thus the Bee-hive is named for the resemblance of her cone to the old-fashioned bee-hive of our fathers; while the Fan gains her name from the pattern of the spout she throws. As to old Faithful, it reminds you of the poetical description of old dog Tray, and though it may not, like the dog of the famous ballad, have its tail drove in behind, it is always to be relied upon and ever faithful. Once in sixty-five minutes you may sot your watch by the event. Old Faithful throw« her waters over 150 feet in the air.

It is esteemed great sport to throw a hat or handker chief into the rising volume and see her dispose of it. A hat is generally restored to its owner in good order, and linen handkerchiefs will stand this kind of laundrying, but frequently the gey ser holds on to all that it gets, some times tearing a handkerchief to shreds or holding it for several days and then ejecting it none the worse for the boiling. The difference in the extent and time of the operations may be inferred from the figures tlrnt I will give of a few of the spouters.

The Unutterable Agony of Hearts WrsBC with lhe Hiser* of Hopeless Condition. dr . whitman ’ s overland trip fiftv YEARS AGO—THE TltANS-CONTrNENTAL ROAD OF TO-DAY. [Honolulu Cor. Chicago News) The hospital now being full, a ttcainer comes to fetch to Molokai those whose condition is most advanced, there to remain until death draws its charitable veil over eyes that hunger for a land they can never see, and closes ears that listen in vain for voices that can never speak to them. It was with such a party that I traveled finally to Molokai, liis excellency having at last exhausted his reasons for my not going. It had been my lot to witness many sad scenes in which the human heart seems to have run the gamut of agony. 1 have heard the wail outside of an Irish prison when the black Hag floating to to the staff told that the sentence of the law lia<l been given effect. 1 have seen the Jews in tlie east driven in winter and at night from out of their villages, and a few months ago I hurried on to Sunderland in time to see an hundred crushed bodies of children carried out of a great ball. Every family of that city had its dead little one, but n' ne ot these nor any other scenes that I have witnessed approached in any way those which attended upon the separation of families as these handful of lepers sailed away to their exile. Daughters reached out their arms to mothers whom they might not embrace, wives held up their mouths for kisses which their husbands could Dot give, babes held in arms of strang ers laughed and cooed to their mothers, to whose breaking hearts they might not be held in one last loving clasp. And sobs, such sobs, alas, that come from the depths of hearts wrung with the misery of a hopeless condition. Presently the lines were cast off, the lit tle steamer turned her head away and steamed slowly toward the bar. I went iuto the little cabin set apart for the captain and closed the door, de termined to hear no more and see no more of such*grief. The little port was open, when suddenly it was darkened, and looking up I saw the dark but beau tiful face of a woman whose young hus band was on his way to Molokai. She had swam out to intercept the steamer, and being, as indeed are all her race, as much at home in the water as on land she had no difficulty in accomplishing her purpose. “Ah 1” she said, “yon are not a doctor nor a constable, tell my husband to look over the side to me and God will bless you.” I went on deck. We were steaming slowly, waiting for the government in spector to complete his task before taking liis own boat for the shore. The lepers had liccome quiet, or at least comparatively so, except for pain. A few women were rocking on their haunches and moaning. A young half white girl, whose sail story I will tell later on, had Hung hersell on the deck in a wild abandonmant of grief, and be hind the smokestack 1 found the hus band kneeling in prayer. His face, serrated by the leprous sores, was held up to the sun; the tears were stream ing down his cheeks and disease-cut features, softening them by the agony of supplication. “William,” said I, “your wife is alongside; go quietly to the place I shall point out to you, and you will see her.” The man sprang up, and for a moment he looked perfectly beautiful, such a joy as came in his face. Then he turned and ran to the place I indi cated. Half an hour afterward I saw him alone. We were then under a full head of steam, passing Diamond Head. “Where is she?” I asked. He pointed astern, and there, not an eighth of a mile away, we saw her swimming toward some fishing boats, her black, soft hair fioating out behind her, her arm every now and again waving to us good-by. On the deck beneath us slept and moaned the lepers. With his legs twisted about the rail of the bridge, his disreputable pipe wheezing, and his un restrained tongue reeling off lies, perches the captain. 1 doze in a wicker chair, and listen and dream and fall to wondering what ministry of faith can bring peace to the troubled souls of this cargo of afflicted, and so listening and wondering I fall asleep soundly, and when I awake Kalawao is broad off our starboard bow and the sun is rising. Oar Rabher Industry. | Exchange. | The rubber industry of the United States has no rival in foreign countries. There is something like $75,009,000 in vested in the business of manufacturing rubi er goods, $30,000,000 of which is confined to the rubber boot and shoe industry. The total number of em ployes is placet! at 15,000, and the total number of factories at 120. Ac cording to a recent census bulletin the i value of the annual product is $250,- 000,000. Some 30,000 tons of raw rub ber are imported every year, which, when combined with other materials in manufacturing, amount to 300,000 tons. '1 he market price of the raw material has been forced up to $1.25 per pound, while six years ago the price was scarcely 50 cents. In consequence of the advance in price, several substances have lieen prepared as substitutes for it, of which celluloid is the most important.
