?THE DEACON.
E. E. Meredith, who is traveling \
through Indiana this week and returns gg
to his Chicago office Saturday writes: \
"I went through Falrmount, Ind., on ^
the traction. It is a pretty little town V
with two blocks of business houses | A
on each side of the main drag and 3ev-\ K
eral blocks of comfortable looking< ?
homes. It has a daily paper, a picture K
show and a Chautauqua Is advertised S
for early in July." w

The national park In Alaska which fj.
Congress created last spring is one of 9j
the monster spectacles of the world. J
To say that it rises 20,300 feet above ?
sea level, and that it is the loftiest ^
peak in America is to convey no idea ^
whatever of its grandeur. There are N
several mountains in the Himalayas 96
which materially exceed its height, X
one of which rises more than 25,000 J
feet aboVe Bea level; and yet Mount 3
McKinJey, to the observer, is loftier 6
than any of these.
The reason is that the greatest Yt
Himalayas are seen from valleys \
seven to ten- thousand feet in alti- K
tude, while Mount McKinley rises S|
abrubtly from valleys three thousand Q
feet and even less in altitude. The g
visitor to the Mount McKinley Na- K
tional Park will look up more than O
seventeen thousand feet to the double
peak, the upper fourteen thousand (/
feet of which are covered with per- M
petual snow. KS
This enormous mass Is the climax 8S
of the great Alaskan Range which ex- N
tends roughly cagt and west across SS
southeast central Alaska, separating A?
the vast northern inland from the jS
more populated country whose shores ?
are the Gulf of Alaska. The range jg|
parallels the mighty Yukon many ?
miles to the south.
The reservation contains 2,200 3S
square miles. Its northern slopes, Sft
which overlook the Tanana water- J5J
shed with its gold mining industry, ?
are broad valleys inhabited by enor- 5g|
mous herds of caribou. Its southern jg
plateau is a perpetual winter wilder- j2
riess through which glaciers of great ^
length and neormous bulk flow into fifcj
:he valeys of the south. In this na- JK
:ional park, which the railroad now SJ
suilding by the Government into the ?
Maskan interior will open presently
o the public, America possesses Ai- lA
sine scenery upon .a titanic scale.
From the stormy south, Mpunt Mc- 38
vinley Is wholly Inaccessible. But m
roni the plains of the north, valleys eg
)f easy grade lead one from another
o its foot. -
"It Is an awe-inspiring region of
nassive mountains and ice-capped
leaks," Belmore Browne, of the
lamp Fire Club, testified before the bou
ienate Committee on Territories. Con
The Piedmont Plateau that follows tim
he range affords a beautiful roadway j[fe
lirect to Mount McKinley. and when .
ou reach the plateau all difficulties
anisii and you see a view that is 1-311
inlque on this earth. You see the roa
luge mountain line of perpetual twe
now, rising like a great wall on the tur<
outheast. You can ride a pony to c
rtiere Mount McKinley rises seven- cro
een thousand feet above you in a mtt
[littering wall of snow and ice. It is cou
lanked by stupendous mountains mol
rhich make a wonderful setting for ord
he monster." car;
Nnrth of the vast mountain, how- fifti
ver, is a rolling country dotted with I t
leautiful lakes and forests and in- gro
abited by enormous herds of carl-' ser
