Its name, "black water'' in the Maori tongue, came * . t ? ? i r i _ J from tiu* oark eomnin oi waier ajia debris that it threw up at every eruption. Stones and boiling water, accompanied by vast clouds of steam, rose 9(>0 to 1 .*>00 feet at irregular intervals twenty or twentytwo times a month. At other times the water of the Waimangu lay in a cup shaped depression about 20 feet deep, 249 feet wide and 402 feet long. Several hours before each eruption the lake would begin to boil violently and to send off dense clouds of steam. Loud subterranean rumblings were heard. When the final explosion eame the whole lake, mingled with material from below, rose bodily. Its torrential fall was destructive to a large area round about, and the slopes near byare still furrowed bv the rivers of water that coursed down them. The column of water was thrown up about four times as high as the Giant geyser, now the largest in the Yellowstone park, throws its water, and the area of its base was about two and a half acres in comparison with the few square rods of the American geyser. Close by the geyser is a hill surmounted bv an iron hut, about 450 feet above the pool, where observers took refuge during eruptions. One day in August, 1903, a party was on the slope below this building watching the boiling pool. As the approach of the explosion became more imminent the guide warned them back, and all except four obeyed. The mother of one of the young ladies called to her, but she wanted to take another photograph and answered, "Just a moment, mother." During that moment the eruption occurred, and the disobedient young lady and her three companions were swept to & tragic death.?Youth's Companion. A Mighty Monolith. A writer in the Christian Herald says that he had heard great stories about the pyramids, but that after seeing the stones at Baalbek those of the great pyramids looked like children's building blocks. In the quarry is a stone on the upper surface of which a troop of cavalry could stand. It is squared on live sides, but not yet detached from the ledge. The Arab legend is that a female giant was carrying the 6tone when she heard her baby cry. She dropped it there, and no one ha6 moved it since. If that babv had not cried for its mother there would be today in the walls of the temple a stone seventy feet long and fifteen feet square. Doubtless it will some day justify the amount of work done upon it. At present it helps six hotels, a dozen curio shops, a 6core of muleteers and a station master. Pilot and Enginoor.

Costly Curda. The Empress Catherine, noticing that the beautiful Mile.
