GRANDEURS OF YELLOWSTONE.
A Trip Through the Famous National
Park of Wonders.
A Most Interesting "Lecture by Key
Dr. Dillo—Something: About the
Great Goysors.
Key. Dr. Dille, iormerly of Sacramento,
but now a resident of Oakland, lectured
to a very large audience last evening at
tiie Sixth-street M. B. Church, on the
wonders of Yellowstone Park. The title
of his lecture was "A Week in Wonder
land," and a very appropriate one it was,
too.
Dr. Dille is a magnetic and eloquent
talker, and his powers of description aro
admirable. He possesses a fund of humor,
too, that is refreshing. Last evening he
had a stereopticon, and a large variety of
views of the wonderful National Park,
which greatly added to the effectiveness
of his lecture.
AWK-INSPIRIXG SCEXKS.
110 began by giving a brief description
ofthe experiences and surprises a trav
eler has who -first visits Yellowstone,
and of the aweheis Bobject to wlien he
gazes upon the great geysers, hears the
rambling beneath tiie earth, and looks
up ai the great mountains and perpen
dicular cliffs. The lights were then
turned down, and a view given of the
road which leads into the park through
■ deep and rocky canyon. Great mount
ains rose <jii either side as the roadpro-
'ss. d until it opened out into the Qreat
I eyser basin. The lecturer then took his
audience on a most interesting journey
down the line of these great, boiling,
tsteaming, spouting caldrons. Ine Gey
ser basin takes in a number of square
miles, and there aro something like
seventy of these mysterious springs—or
"lire holes'' as the Indians weie wont to
call them. Many more are to bo found
in the upper Geyser region, too. Tho
urst geyser seen was a most peculiar
looking one. It was built up in white,
frosty-looking terraces, and the crater
was on top. From this the seething,
boiling water, filled with a sort of white,
sulphuric Bubstance, came tumbling
down the terraces. Little basins of boil
ing water were to be found among the
terraces. Articles left in the basins could
be taken out a few moments later thor
oughly [ncrusted with the white, glisten
ing sediment. This same Bubstance
coated the ground ior some distance
around the eeyser and caused one to feel
though lie were walking through a
lieid of baking powder.
SHAKY aSOtTNO.
Tlie ground upon which one has to
tread all through the geyser basin is ofa
idedly Bhaky and nerve-straining
character. A constant rumbling noise is
going on und< r one's feet, and it feels like
one was walking on a very thin piece ot
piecrust. \A en in the hotel n< ar tiiis par
ticular geyser the same sensation was felt.
There are places there where the earth
Las sunken considerably, and Dr. Dille
said he would not be burprisi i some daj'
to see the hotel sink out of sight.
The speaker next took his audience toa
little knob which protruded from tho
v .tiers of a pretty lake. In the c :.; r i.'
this knoll was a hot spring. While
a being looked at Dr. Dille told a fish
story. That knoll, ace >rding to his
story, would be a splendid place tora
shipwrecked party to iand. Here one
could thmw a fish line into the lake,
h a big trout and then, without even
taking him off the hook, lower him into

and thence to Excelsior Geyser. The
latter, when in eruption, throws the boil
ing water and steam 300 foot into the air,
and is a grand sight. These eruptions
only take place every three years, but
when they did occur they shook the en
tire valley. Five hundred feet from the
Kxcelsior is the Prismatic Lake. This
was another feature of wonderland.
Every color in the rainbow could be seen
in the lake.
From Midway geyser to the Ppper
geyser region there were some 110 gey
sers, of aii sizes, in all stages of activity.
While some of them wero quiet and regu
lar in their "plays," others were like a
great many people—ready to spout on
any occasion.
The Fire-hole River was next seen,
and from hero Dr. Dille took his guests
to the Old Faithful geyser. This one
spouted every sixty-three minutes, year
in, year out—not varying two minutes in
its regularity during a whole day. It
threw the water 200 feet high. The* twin
Giant and Giantess geysers wore next
seen, and then the Grotto, Castle, Sponge
and Oblong geysers.

These hot springs, contrary to the gon
eral idea, were not good places to wash
clothes, explained Mr. Dille. While they
would wash clothes clean, they also
turned them out full of holes. It was
dangerous, too, to have a bar of soap too
near them, for if it should happen to fall
in there would be an explosion. Soap
always makes the springs sick, so the
(Id-timers in the park say. The speaker
then related a funny incident that was
told about there. A Chinaman camped
over oue of the springs and proceeded to
do his washing. He let tlie soap slip and

In conclusion Dr. Dille showed his
audience the beautiful Yellowstone Lake

lie followed the river down to the famous
fells. They were a series of great tumb
ling cascades which were beautiful to be
hold. The first fall was 150 feet to a
shelf of soiid rock below; then a plunge
of 350 feet was taken, followed by several
other shorter ones, until it was swallow ed
tin in the deep and yawning Yellowstone
canyon below. Several views of this
canyon wero had. On either sideof it
wails of rock rose 2,000 feet high aud
were almost perpendicular—in feet, no
human being has ever yet been able to
scale them, and probably never will.
These walls glowed and glistened in all
the colors of the rainbow and formed a
picture that no man could paint.
The lecture was a most successful one
and was heartily enjoyed by all who
attended.

SANSOM CONVICTED.
'•Bull Neck** Kelly's Partner in tho
lowa Hill Burglary.
John Sansom, the notorious stage
robber and safe-cracker, who, with the
equally notorious "Pull Neck" Kelly,
robbed J. F. Brown's store at lowa Hill
of 9*2,000 worth of jowelry several months
ago, has been convicted of that crime.
Sansom is one of the oldest ami most
desperate criminals in the State. Shortly
ailer this last burglary the police of this
city got on his trail, and officers Arling
ton and Higgins captured him one dark
night on the Yolo side ofthe bridge,
whore he was waiting for Kelly, who
was supposed to come up from San Fran
cisco with a lull kit of safe-cracking tools,
with which they were to do several jobs
in this city. But "Pull Neck" did not
come up. as he had fallen into the hands
of the San Francisco police. Ollicers

ered most of the stolen jewelry.
NOT QUITE "SKUNKED. •*
A Ilnntln^ Expedition That Was Not
Wholly a Failure.
A Constable and his deputy went gun
ning yesterday. They went out in a con
veyance drawn by two horses, and were
armed to tho teetli for quail, train rob
bers or jack rabbits. They carried
shotguns and a description of desperado
Dalton.
They had quite an afternoon's hunt In
tho brush northeast of tho city, and
bagged a couple of suspicious-looking
tramps.
When the camp was struck the Con
stable brisseled up, and the deputy
looked so cross that the game quailed
before them and made no attempt to liy.
Tho officers were not out merely Bora
lark—they meant business, and If they
did not get just what they went after it
was not their fault.
AMUSEMENTS.
The beautiful piece of mechanism, "Tho
City of Babylon iv Miniature," will bo

Formation of Hail.
A direct observation of hail in the pro
cess of formation is recoided by Pro
fessor Tossetti, who. in the afternoon ofa
squally day, looking eastward through
the window ofa house in Northern Italy,
'which, with two others, inclosed the
court, saw tho rain which streamed down
from the roof to the right caught by a
very cold wind from the north and
driven back and up in thick drops. Sud
denly a south wind blew, and tlie drops,
about in all directions, were trans
formed into ice-balls. When the south
wind ceased this transformation also
ceasel. but whenever the south Wind re
curred the phenomenon was reproduced,
and this was observed three oi four times
in ten minutes.

ETC.. ETC., at prices that are lower than ever before given in this, the Capital City of
