The writer joined the Teuu nylvaniu Editorial ExcurBion on Tuesday morninif at Sunbury. We 4 tun tral ai l nt a unnpinl train furniHlied by the Pennsylvania Railroad Com onlvat Williatnsport ftudElmiro. It being our lirst trip on an excursion of this character we A 1 had many oequaintanaes to mate. nur timk was an easy one and we uo.l mi our journey. Elmira iu f......li..,l nt 1:'IH 1. M. where we licfoio cross iu? the New York Htato liue we were huowu a largo observatory on a mountain, said to be Mt. Jiisgah, the highcHt point in Pennsylvania. v, f.if f in in thin place is Canton. the home of Fanny Davenport, the great American actress. Reaching Cannndaiguii. we wero transferred to the NVwYork Central ana Jiua u !;... I'nilinii.l. the LMeat four track road of America. By special service wo wero hastened to Buffalo until 6:M, one hour ahead of sched ..i ;... ,ftir f'ixini headquarters nHliamieHee Hotel, wo started Ant rr uor ha nitv. t irrand and im poRint' n 'cipality. Buffalo boauU than any other citjr in the world. Even the beautiful city of Paris can not equal in this respect the city on Lake Erie. On Wednesday morning a special excursion was arranged to go to De Dew, a small town not far from Buf falo. D. pow is Buffalo's child ami contains largo manufacturing in dustries. We did not join the excursion, but those who went have the highest praise for the royal treatment received. A business meeting of the association was held at ll::ti o'clock. No special pro gramme was arranged for the after noon and J. J. Kiutner of New Bloomlield, representing the Dun cannon j:cnl nud the writer boarded the steamboat, "Pearl" for rrnt'i A'a7ia summer resort in C'aiiada. known as "Buffalo's Para dise". We wero now for the first time riding upon the turbulent wa ters of Lake Erie. A number of passengers becamo sea-sick and speedily left tho deck, seeking a quiet corner in tho cabiu. It re quired more than an hour to reach our destination and there for tho first time wo beheld the Dominion of Canada. Crystal Beach is a do lightful place, provided with a danc ing lloor, Ferris wheel, and bath house and a host of other means of fiitevtainment. We detained our selves a few moments too long at tho dancing pavillion und had tho satis faction of seeing our boat depart without us. Tho question how to spend our timo until tho next boat would leave was easily solved. Wo hastened to tho bath house and pre pared to take a plungo into tho wa ters of Lake Erie. This was a novel feature in two respects, viz: Yo had never bathed in tho waters of l,ako Erie and second, wo wero for iLo first time on Her Majesty' pos sessions. A cold wind ciimo in from tho lake and our first plunge was not as delightful as wo had an ticipated. By keeping under tho water, however, wo experienced no discomfort. Tho bottom of tho lake was sandy and as even as a Hoor. Tho largo waves rolled in from tho hike and frequently covered tho heads of tho bathers. Leaving the water after a most delightful ex perience, wo prepared for the steamboat, "Qazelle" that left nt ii:15 bringing us to Buffalo at 7:30. "Sam'l The Poseu," the great nctor, played at the Academy of Music and as we were all given compli mentary tickets, we hastened to get a lunch and sought our seats to witness this master on the stage. Tho delighted audience was kept in a continr al laugh from beginning to the end. It was eleven o'clock and we soon sought our place for slum hers. When I came to my room. I found my roommate, J. Irvin Steele, Jr., Editor of the Shamokin Daily A mll, fast asleep while four elec tric lights were burning in the room. On Thursday morning at the N. Y. Central had a special train waiting for Niagara Falls. Wear rived there at 1 0:30 and took up our abode at the International Hotel, tho largest at tho Falls, its capacity being able to accommodate G'K) per xoim. Iu a few minutes n number of trolley cars were stationed in front of the hotel. They carried us to the Power House. It rarely oc curs th-.it any person is admitted to tho Power House. This courtesy, however, was extended to our party. For thousands of years the water passing over Niagara Falls has been wasted. Now an effort is made to uso it to advantage. The power house has already three large dyna mos. Each dynamo has 5,000 horse power. There are to be ten dyna mos each with 5,000 horse power making a full 50,000- horse power. This, it is believed, can be transmit ted to surrounding towns. Y'es, one man claims that by this means tho boats can be run from Buffalo to Albany on the Erie Canal Nikola Fesla has declared that Niagara Falls could send 100,000 horse-power by wire westward to Chicago and eastward to New York and it may be tho privilege of the present gen eration to see this prophecy fulfill cd. Niagara's centuries of idle splashing must now be atoned for by useful service. Iu this letter we can only allude to this matter ; we will endeavor to explain it more ful ly in a later issue. Having eaten our dinuers our surrey awaited us. Our party consisted of F. V. B. Laird of Greensburg, Mr. Leslie of Chicago, Mr. Steele of Shamokin and the writer. Mr. Laird resem bled Bill Nye so much that we had no trouble to persuade people to the belief that he was the great Ashe ville humorist. We visited in regu lar order Luna Island, Goat Island, Bath Island, Three Sister Islands and viewed the rapids and the falls from various points ; luence to tne Great Whirl nqpl and the whirlpool f.UI'ids. Crossing tha Suspension Bridge we reached Niagara Falls, Ontario. We stopped at the Post Office, bought a few postal cards and sent them to our friends. Pas sing up along tho Canadian side of tho river we reached Queen Victoria Park. Hero wo each deposited 50 cents and secured a rubber suit and descended in an elevator to tho foot of Horse Shoo Falls and in full sight of tho American Falls. Here alone, at the foot of the world-famed, stupendous cataract can you begin to realize the great volume and forco of the water as it dashos itself into foam at your feet. Stand ing for a few moments, with that awful roar penetrating your whole being, and the angry gust causing you to cling to the handrail, you be gin to feel iutiuitely small and pow erless in comparison with this great work of Nature. No tongue can ex plain its vividness, no pen can de scribe its sublimity. MAUUIA IUVEH AM) THE FALLS. The Niagara River is a short stream, the Fulls a stupendous cat aract Mowing from Lake Erie northward to Lake Ontario The name, Niagara, in the Indian tongue moaus "thunder of waters. Issuing from Lake Erie it is 1 of a mile broad, but ns it Hows on, it bo comes several miles wide, making room for a number of islands, the largest of which, Grand Island, is 12 miles long and from 2 to 7 brood. At tho foot of Grand Island, 1) mile above tho Falls uro produced the swift currents known as the Jlap'nh in which tho river is perpetually white with foam. At the Fulls 22 miles-from Lake Erie, tho river has a breadth of 4750 feet : but its center is occupied by an island containing 75 acres, culled Goat Island, 10 feot abovo tho water; but in consequence of a bend in tho channel, by far tho larger portion of water is sent down by the Canadian side. Goat Island, having a breadth of about 1000 feet, is separated from tho American Shore about 1400 feet : but the breadth of the Canadian Full is increased by an upward bend iu its lino. On this side, therefore is the grander cataract, which has been named the Jlorse tSioo Fall, but no longer bears the name appro priately, us the precipice has been worn from a curved into u somewhat ancular shape. The Horse Shoe Fall is about 150 feet in height. The water is so deep, that it retains its green color tome distance below the brow of the prec ipice t and it rushes over with such force that it is thrown about 50 feet from the foot of the cliff. One may thus, having douned an oil skin dres, enter a short distance behind the curved sheet, of water ; but the spray is so blinding, the din so deafening, and the current of air so strong, that it icquircs a strong nerve and a firm foot ; thi recess is known us tho Cave of tho Winds. The discharge of Niagara Fulls is computed at 1,000,000 cubic feet per minute. For about seven miles be low tho Falls, tho river descending 1"! fee t, varies in width from 750 to 1,200 f)., llowing through a ravine with perpendicular banks 2i0 to 250 feet high. At Lewiston this gorge ends and tho river passes on its peaceful courso to Lake Ontario. After leaving Table Rock on tho Canadian side we crossed tho river and entered Prospect Park where wo took a lust, lingering, longing look at the Fulls. Our route was complete and we directed the driver to take us to the hotel. In the eve ning the proprietor guvo a ball to the members of the editorial party. Early on Friday morning we boarded a special train of observa tion cars furnished by the N. Y. Central R. It., a company that did everything in their power to make our trip a pleasant one. Their tour ist agent remained with us from Tuesday when we reached their lines until Friday night when we left them. This special train ran to Lewiston, where we boarded the "Chicora," a steamer headed for Toronto via of Lake Ontario, a dis tance of 40 miles. It was so cold out on the lake that men wore over coats. We reached Toronto, the capital of the province of Ontario, at 10:110. We visited tho parliament buildings and the University of To ronto before dinner. Our boat, the "Chinnewa". left Toronto nt '1 n. tn. This made our stay at Toronto a brief one. A noticeable feature about our trip was tho persistence the Canadians used in always giving Canadian money when making cnange. All ttieir money passes at par along the border, but tourists will bo prudent to dispose of their Canada money before returning to the iuterior of the states. The 'Chippewa is a very lariro steamer. too largo to land at Lewiston, so we were compelled to bo transferred at lueenston. Here the Custom of ficer boarded our boat to exnminn all suspicious looking packages in order that no material be brought in from Canada in violation to the tariff laws. Arriving at Lewiston, the special train of observation cars hastenod us buck to Niagara Fulls. Here partaking of our supper we boarded a special train of Pullman Sleepers bound for Hurrisburg. By request of the writer tho special truiu stopped ut Seliusgrovo Junc tion and permitted him to reuch his parental home in Selinsgrove at0::JO on Saturday morning for breakfast. This completed a most delightful trip. G. W. W. Make Your Choice.
