pondence of. Tin : Bii.1 : : Our party loft this
little town nt 0X : : ) in the evening , with the
intention of arriving at the colohratcd Shoshone -
ono fulls at about 10:30 : o'clock the snmo
night. There wcro two traveling' men , ono
named Mnguiro from New Y"ork and the
other Moore of St. Louis and two young
women , the older a Chicago schoolnui'aui and
the younger her sister in the gawky ago of
foininino development.
Tbo road to the falls has been cut through
n pliiln of bngo brush and lava. For twcnty-
six inilos thcro Is nothing to rcllovo tlio
monotony of white sand , brush nnd lava , but
the driver's stories nnd the jokes or conver
sational powers of one's companions , AVe
Buffered very little because ) of tlio lack of
versatility of the party nnd became anxious
only where the road beenino obscured under
the starless clouds which had overcast the
scene when the sun disappeared ,
For nearly two hours wo proceeded In the
dni'hncss , some fearing that wo had lost ouv
way , In which rfvt'iit them would bo no alternative -
native but a risky tramp through the desert
umtcr the chill night air.
The driver , however , continued to pick his
way and finally announced that we had at
length reached "tbo rocks. " In this manner
he designated the livn beds which extend
four miles from the falls , and over which , in
the dark , it Is impossible to drive with safety
faster than it walk.
" " Ono weary hour was snout picking our way
through these adamantine labyrinths when
the driver sententioiisly mid informally re
marked : "Here's where you get out ! "
Wo disembarked without n.estloiilng and
tbo driver tied one of the hind wheels to a
side bnico on the wagon.
"ThU Is it steep hill nu' I never hauled a
living being down it In mv lifo. I'll go ahead
with tlio team and you follow. "
"Aro we near the fulls J" petulantlv asked
the younger luily passenger , as if slio wcro
about disk-listed wltli the Journey ,
" Yes , Miss , though they're down at the bet
tom of the hill " ho
, good-naturedly replied , us
ho started oft with his team.
Wo followed. It va * imlark as n dungeon ,
\Vo could jiot se ? two feet In advance.Vo
soon discovered that the descent was most
abrupt , so much so , indeed , that It required
the united efforts of the party to keep us
from breaking Into a run , leaving the road
and going wo know not whew. ' .
When wo reached the bottom of the hill wo
were out of breath and the driver told us wo
had travcleda thousand feet. Wo again took
tha wagon and nt tlmt moment for the llrst
thuo tlio hoarse votes of the fajls grouted our
oars. Almost at thu same Instant tlicro was
u rift In tlio sable covering above us and a
white patch of cloud beeiino vMblo. Whence
It received its light , wo knew not. Thcro wits
not a star visible. Profiled against this er
rant cloud were immense masses of rock ,
bliick ns the night Itself and towering above
seemingly to a distance of thousands of feet.
In tills sniiiouncertnlnlliflit saw or fancied
we > saw tha windings of the Snake , but It was
only fancy , IMVMUSO wo could seiitvcly tee the
ntreani wlu-n the driver announced that wo
hud ivuchod the ferry. Wo boarded the lat
ter which Is about two hundred feet above
lief alb , horse , wiifoii , women and all , Wo
took turns working at the windlass as wo did
ilso in speculatin what would bo
our fate if the ferry's cables should
irenkl Once , while In mid-river , the current
itriick us with unusual force nnd nil the male
innds wcro required at the rope , wlillo the
women clasped each ether in a corner nnd re-
nnlned speechless until the bank was reached ,
1'horo is little pleasure in traveling1 in the
dark and tlicro Is little to reassure the trav
eler when ho encounters dangers the niiigni-
; udo of which must bo determined by conjoe-
Lure. For tills reason , when the ascer.t of
the opposite bank was undertaken , there was
not a member of the party who did not feel
that hu or she. bad accomplished an heroic
( Iced which would bear recounting utter the
return homo.
As wo climbed the hill , ngnln in the densest
darkness , everybody simultaneously re
marked that it had begun to rain. A heavy
mist struck us , rendering wraps necessary.
This , the driver explained , was the spray
from the falls , which the wind was scatter
ing around with lavish generosity. In this
inlst. wo reached the hotel , in which not a
light burned , nnd in which every occupant
must have fallen into the sleep of the just
which oven the crash of the falling water Ue-
iicnth was unable to disturb.
The hostelry stands on a height almost over
the south end of the falls nnd was enveloped
in it cloud of spray which , llmling temporary
lodgment on the roof of the poivli , dropped in
rain to the lloor below. The landlord was
aroused and the party stowed away for the
night.
My apartment was the nearest to the falls
and , despite the mist without , J left the win
dow open to listen to thu deen base voice of
tlio fulls which had not sounded unmusical
from the first moment it reached my
ear. The pitch was ovoa anil the
volume was maintained with but the
slightest variation , save when the sound
waves were wafted to the opnoslto side of the
canon. It then rose nnd fell wltli masterly
sympathy nnd expression In a solo of unturo's-
omtorio to nature's ( ! od.
I had heard that these whoso sense of hear
Ing was most acute or whoso ears had been
attuned to the closest harmonies , could dis
tinguish a variety of sounds ninid the rush of
waters over the fulls. I lay , for a time , and
tnado an attempt to catch tha various sounds ,
with but Indifferent success. Some people
say they hnvo been able to distinguish eight :
others , ton different sounds. I3ut I am not
ono of those so musically constituted , I
thought , however , that 1 could faintly note
Tour or live distinct Intonations , seine of a
compar.ith-ely high treble , nnd then I dUeon-
tlnued tbo Investigation. I let the Imagina
tion have full play and there was no move
ment In music , mechanics or human agency ,
to which that of the falls did not keep nceom-
p.iiiliuent. 1 heard , again , the tir.st school bell
\vnicli sounded in my ears ; the chlmoof the
little church in the wood in which rare and
radiant maidens wcro early and sweetly nt-
tuned to carol the praises of their maker ; the
booming of the guns which proclaimed ,
throughout the land , the surrender of Leo
und the close of the rebellion and , with the
Imagination raveling in several of Puttl's
choicest arias , I fell asleep with the ceaseless
volume of sound In my cars and sensible , to
the pulsations of the fall which rocked the
hosulry like a cradle.
When I arose in .tin1 morning , the mist was
sweeping In great clouds over the hotel and
falling In ruin from the porch , It promised
to bo u bad day for sight seeing because it
was utmost Impossible to stand upon the
brink of the precipice or within several hun
dred feet of tlio falls without being drenched.
The fulls uUo , wcro enveloped In the mist
only the ctvst being In any manner visible.
About 10 o'clock , however , the wind vivivd
to the south and the sun came out in all life
clory. und the work of sight bceing was , un
dertaken.
The hotel stands about fifty feet from the
brink of the chasm. The hitter is lined with
dnrk plno trees wlillo the bank Is covered
with u rich matting of grass. This is about
the only departure from the reign of sugo
liKish und is effected by the fruitful libation
of the mist from the abyss ,
From these pines , a rough walk leads
almost from opmwito the door of the hot < > l

path was so moist from the spray tlmt Blon-
din himself would have hesitated in its de
scent. Accordingly , our guide took us by a
sinuous path to a bight several hundred feet
above the fulls. There , however , wlillo a
good view could be had of the scene , it lacked
In detail and accordingly another place was
sought.3
On our way tnlther the guide di
gressed , leading us down the precipice to the
very surface of the river. This descent is
one of t ho most perilous that can bo Imagined.
The side of the chasm is almost perpendicu
lar. Every Jutting piece of rock and foot of
earth was bathed in dew. A single false step
would have hurled the unfortunate to de
struction. Ho would have rolled from rocit to
rock nnd finally found lodgment in the raging
waters which dashed against the base of the
solid walls below. The descent was rendered
possible only by tlio use of a half inch wire
cable which led down the steep sides and
which was fastened at intervals to the rocks
along the route. In n couple of instances ,
slippery ladders wcro employed where the
cable could not have been used for a hand
rail. By means of these agencies the party ,
saturated with rain , perspiring from tugging
at the cable and , to a greater or less degree ,
covered with mud , reached the river , There
men and women passed over a number of
rough rocks .strongly suggestive of gig.mtic .
mussel shells over which the undulating and
angry waters roamed undirected. Between
these rocks were hundreds of varieties of
driftwood which the action of the waters had
worn from angular iuto well-rounded proper
tions.
Our path led to "Diana's Bath , " nnd with
knightly pioprluty It was suggested that the
ladies snould enter the place llrst. This they
did and upon Informing us that wo might
enter the sacred precincts , the gentlemen
followed.
The inir huntress had evidently finished
her ablutions , because the place was tenant-
less. The bath ij ono of the many caves
formed In the basalt by the action of the
water , and is about thirty feet deep by two
hundred focthlfjh. In the middle of the en
closure Is a pool formed by a crystal stream
welling from the rock beneath. It was la this
that tbo goddess had bathed her shapely
form. This , too , served as her mirror. Her
Jewel casket , hung up the rock , whom a per
petual string of pearls trickled from a crevlco
and another passing over n bank of ferns was
transformed Into the brightest of emerald.
The young women yores unarmed with the
spot and desired to linger , but the men , not
feeling at homo in my lady's chamber , with
draw , followed by the fair ones , after several
cards had been left for the goddess of the
pUtco ,
With much difllculty wo ro-ascemlcd to the
summit of tlio precipice. The sun was shin
ing warmly , the mist was rising perpendicu
larly because the winds had gene to rest.
Shoshone fulls were to bo seen in nil their
glory. ] Jut who can paint that glory ! Six
years ago , when this voniler came into the
l > ossessioii of Duwoy ic Stone , John A.
C'rclghton , of Omaha , mid II , I-\ Clark of

tive efforts of these gentlemen are in them *
selves gems , But the grandeur mid glory
and Impresilvencss of Sliosbono fulls , never
theless , will bo experienced by no muit who
falls to see the great miracle itself , The
Union 1'acillo sends two trains daily eaeh
wnv within twcnty-llvo miles of the place ,
and the triii will repay anyone who run ap
preciate what is both beautiful and sublime.
Two hundred fevt above the falls thcSnnko
flows between basaltic banks SIM foot high.
Its surface is scarcely more milled than tlmt
of a mill poml. Suddenly , however , It en
counters rocky upheavals against which it
has been ( lowing for centuries. The trans
parent waters are divided , Some flow to the
right , sonio to the loft , und others are Im
peded und lushed into foam , but the stream ,
with its wonderful power , dashes , forming
within u short distance three small falls , two
of which faeo the west ami the other , larger
than both , describes an ellipse toward the
south. A short distance in udvuncoof the
two falls lint mentioned uud on a lotvcrnluuo
are t\vo inoro small falls , the ( low from the
more northerly of which passes the entrance
to a ( jothio cave , the threshold of which no
man has transcended. Somewhat to the
north and west of the cave rock , describing
an imperfect crescent. Is what , is known as
the llritlal Veil , Iho fall of wliic-h is esti
mated at eighty foot. This nnmo is inappro
priate , beenuso the width is not proportioned
to the height mid because the laec-lllco trans
parency peculiar to the bridal veil is
scarcely If ever visible in tlio fall. This
fall , however , Ii imposing , and , of
Itself , would bo coiildercd a curiosity.
But it is tUvarfcit into nothingness
by the cataract of which It is but one of the
forerunners. A hundred feet south hangs
another wall of water , and still to the south
stands an irregular pillar fifty feet high , sur
rounded by swirling waters , on the summit
of which for generations , it is presumed , has
stood an eyrie. Tlicro today tlio poud bird
oflho mountain is training the pinions of
licr eaglets to rise to the sun from the midst
of n ehaos , siifllcient to uxvo the stoutest
heart , so that hero.iftir , ni the symbols of
their country , they may bo fearless amid the
most trying dangers.
Down tlieso steppes , around these pillars ,
past those caves , tlio inuin stream la swollen
"by others nieGtiiijj it , until n torrent , power
ful and strong it sweeps to the abyss where
nil is rain. " For an instant before the fatal
phingo isinado. the waters , tired from the
passage o'er the innumerable falls of the
Snake , hesitate as if fearful of the deadly
pluugo. Their hesitancy it displayed in a
snow-decked surface , which , however , is
berne along by tuorcsiUloss tide from behind.
Then It shoots far over the brink with a force
.scoiningly curable of penetrating the center
of the earth , und indeed of furnishing motive
; power to the machinery of the world. This
' wall of water Is 210 foot high , forty-live feet
higher than that of Niagara , while the
crescent described by iUls , 11.10 feet from point
to point. When tlio sun shines from the west
within these miraculous waters may

The last story I told you also leads mo to a
point on which altogether too little Is Hiild or
written , and that Is tlio modern tendency to
bullttto or deride those women who 0
through lifo , unmarried ; or , us the world
calls them , "old maids , " There nro by for
too ninny careless jests made of this class of
women , says a writer in the Ladies' ' Homo
Journal. In the minds of many it MCCIIIS n
Buttled fact , that because u woman run-hot
the age of forty , llfty or sixty uninarrlod ,
thitt nt some time In her early life she wits
the victim of ulthcr disappointed love or un
reciprocated affection. This is n common
mistake , ns thousands of Instances , both in
history nnd in our ovorv-day Ufa can prove ,
There are hundreds or women to-day who
have never married bccauso of some special
mission in life , cither In their own families ,
or to the world at largo , which they full they
conlit better accomplish If untrainimslcd by
domestic cares. ] ly their self wacrUIco tlieso
women are. . heroines ; mid the very last por-
HOII on God's ' footstool of whom ] cst shoula be

have ever honored mo with their friundslilp.
