CHANGES IN "OLD FAITHFUL"
Yellowstone's Famous Geyser Has
Slightly Lengthened the Periods
Between Its Eruptions.
. Old Faithful, Yellowstone'* most
famous geyser, has slightly changed
the period of Its eruptions.
According to the observation^ of the
park naturalist and the range?, fhe
geyser n<JW spouts on nn average
every 04.0 minutes. Last year the aV
. erage period was 60 minutes.
? The alteration in Old Faithful's
"tempo" does not iudlcate any lessen
ing of Its vigor or "faithfulness." On
the contrary, Naturalist M. P. Skin
ner's observations .show the mighty
fountain to be increasing In volume.
The change Is believed to be duo to
? n alteration In the subterranean tube
of the geyser.
For the last year or so Old Faithful
has acquired a habit of occasionally
throwing out small rocks." The pas
sage of the rocka through the tube it
believed to have enlarged Its dimen
sions slightly, this In turn being re
sponsible for the lengthened period be
tween eruptions and the Increased vol
ume of water.
? number of other Interesting
changes, lending a constantly varying
Interest to the mysterious manifesta
tions of the park's performing natural
wonders, also are reported by official
observers.

Minneapolis. Minn. Tourists, espe
daily those from other states than
Minnesota, will not be the prey of
overzealous authorities In the small
towns of Minnesota. who ire rigidly
enforcing local traffic codes with a
zest, beht upon enhancing their own
salaries ur enrichiUK the c^flerk of the
village, If a rnovrtnent afarted among
several towns continues to apread.
Vigilance committees, composed of
residents of the communities, have
been formed, which the tourist who has
been haled into court may depend on
for fa|,r, reasonable treatment. These
committees will see that too rapid Jus
tice will not engulf the innocent, es
pecially when the motorist happens to
be a tourist from outside the state,
and therefore - expect edly Ignorant of
the traffic laws In that locality.
With the tourist Industry developing
by rapid strides in Minnesota, the ac
tion of the small town officers in strict
ly enforcing petty Infractions was seen
as a possible deterrent and menacing
factor to Its progress, according to
I'erry S. Williams, manager of the
Mlnnetyiolls Journal travel and resort
bureau, who was Instrumental In or
ganizing the first vigilance committee.
"The trouble apparently threatened
as a result of the fact that at many
points both the constables and depu
ties making the arrests and the court
officer before whom the alleged of
fenders must appear profited with the
assessment of the tine," Mr. Williams
said. "Part of the work of the vigl
lance groups will be to correct this ar
rangement where it exists. Efforts
will be made to place such officers on
a definite and Increased salary basis.
Also it 1s planned to have moneys pro
cured from fines placed in road funds
to help along the general work of bet
t?jting the state highway conditions."
Communities lying along the- state
highway leading to ?n^ground Millo
l.acs lake, on trunk highway No. 18,
were first to organize the "vigilantes."
PrlneetofTled the way with the organi
zation of a highway vigilance commit
tee and similar groups "are being
formed at Onamla, Milaca and Isle.
