Explorers Find Hot Springs / in Hidden Valley. Ottawa. ~The often-rumored “land that time forgot,” In Canada's far nerthwest, 1s a reality and no mere prospector's myth or fragment of In- dian folklore, Such Is the positive assurance given by Dr. J. Norman Henry of Philadel- phia and his compantons, who are now homeward bound with the proud dis- tinction of being the first white men who have ever gazed upon the hidden tropical valley, which lies within the Arctic circle, in northern British Co- lumbia, The valley remains today as it must have been in prehistoric eras, before the glacier age swept over North America—a luxurious garden of rich tropical growth, such as are now com- mon only in the equatorial zone, Bubbling Hot Springs. The valley, located in the mountains near the junction of the Racing and Toad rivers, nearly 1.000 miles north- west of Edmonton, is three-quarters of a mile wide and nearly a quarter of a mile in length, and is honeycombed with bubbling hot springs, to which it owes its continued existence, In some of the craters the water was too hot to touch, and Indian guldes who know the district vow that the water In the valley does not freeze even in mid-winter when the surround- ing district has a temperature of 50 de- grees below zero, The expedition was disappointed in its hope of finding prehistoric animal life in the valley, although Professor Henry believes that systematic execa- cation might yield well-preserved re- mains. The best of the vegetation had also been destroyed by fairly recent forest fires, but a number of speci hg mens were obtained which are expect- ed to astound the botanical world. For centuries, the location of the “valley of steaming waters” has been a jealously guarded secret among a band of Indians Inhabiting a section of the Peace river area.

John, a ten days’ journey led the party to the valley, over a route which would have been impassable but for a collapsible rubber boat which the ex- pedition carried and which enabled them to cross several torrential rivers.

Pennsylvania Official Reveals Old-Time Levees. Harrisburg, Pa.—Inheritance taxes in ancient Egypt were higher than those which Pennsylvania now imposes on estates, according to Linn Reist, department of revenue official in charge of collecting the state tax.

The rate was 10 per cent,” Reist said. “The Pennsylvania rate for wife or husband, parents, sons, daughters, grandchildren and all direct descend- ants is 2 cents on each dollar, Here Is one tax which has been tremendous ly reduced since the days of the Pha- raohs.” Reist traced the history of inherit Greece and thence into Rome In the time of the Caesars, “In the year 6 A.
