DEATH IN THE EXPLOSION.
A Tragady ?f What Waa tha Larpaat
Gayaar In tha World.
While the Waimangu geyser, in
New Zealand, lasted it was the largest
in the world. 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.

Costly Curda.
The Empress Catherine, noticing
that the beautiful Mile. Potocka,
who had lately come to court, had
no pearls, immediately commanded
a fancy dress ball, to which the
girl was bidden to come as a milkmaid.
Then while Mile. Potocka
u.iK ilnm in"' thp eirmress slirmed a
superb necklace of pearls into the
pail she carried and at her exclamation
of wonder said. ''It is only
the milk which has curdled."
