THE MOVING PICTURE WORLD. 47 ©ipi©Ws A Trip Through the MAMMOTH HOT SPRINGS.—A cir- cular panorama of Mammoth Hot Springs from the center of the Basin, commencing with a distant view of Gardiner Canon, the Northern entrance to Yellowstone Park; the various Government Buildings and U. S. Cavalry Post; headquarters of the Park Superintendent; Capitol Hill and Old Fort Yellowstone; Jupiter Terrace, the first great wonder of the Park; Liberty Gap; Devil's Thumb; the various other curio' shops and cottages, and an excellent view of the Mammoth Hot Springs Hotel. NEW CRATER ji GEYSER. — Some twenty miles from Mammoth Hot Springs in Norris Geyser Basin, we find "New Crater Geyser, one of the prettiest Geyser formations in the Park, formerly an ordi- nary bubbling pool, but in 1801, during a terrific thermal convulsion, great volumes of hot water belched forth, since which, it has settled down to regular eruptions of about every fifteen minutes. The "play" is spasmodic and irregular, emitting consid- erable steam. FIRE-HOLE RAPIDS.—This is one of the prettiest cascade formations to be found in Yellowstone Park. The beauty of the wild sylvan surroundings only helps the more to enhance the charm of this crystal clear river in its roaring, struggling turmoil over the battlement of rugged rocks. This is one of the finest water scenes ever photographed, and the effect of animation in the Motion Picture is most P RIvfRSIDE GEYSER—In Upper Gey- ser Basin, on the sloping banks of Fire- Hole River, and quite close to the water's edge, is located Riverside Geyser, a fine specimen of Geyser formation that "plays for about thirty minutes every eight hours, throwing great volumes of water at a grace- ful angle out over the Basin. * CASTLE GEYSER.—The striking re- semblance this very peculiar formation bears to an old castle ruin, is no doubt the origin of the name. Prominently situated in Upper Geyser Basin, its commanding presence and great size (being much larg- er than any other single formation) is an indication that it is the oldest active Gey- ser in the Park. The eruptions of hot wa- ter seem to occur about every thirty hours or so, and rises, to various heights from twenty-five to seventy-five feet, accompa- nied by great noise and exhausts of steam, and unusual commotions seem to take place when steam and water are emitted to sev- eral times the usual height, producing a grand spectacular effect OLD FAITHFUL GEYSER.—No one feature perhaps m all the many wonders of Yellowstone Park can vie with Old Faithful" mOier hold upon the sentiment of the tourist Long before they ever con- templated the trip, they had already heard something, read something, or seen some- thing of this grand old Geyser, with the pretty name. Many mile3 have already been traveled, and many strange, curious things seen and forgotten—there: is yet one grand climax in watting-'Old Fsuttjful." UPPER GEYSER BASIN.—A circular panorama of the most important Geyser formation in the Park, for here are located in this immediate vicinity the "Castle, "Devil's Well," "Giant," "Grotto," flgfflfc side? "Turban," "Grand," "Saw-Mai" "Surprise," "Lion," "Lioness" and the two "Cubs," "Beehive," "Chinaman," and the famous "Old Faithful," ending with a view of the-new magnificent Hotel, the finest of the kind in the world, "Old Faithful Inn." BRINK OF UPPER FALLS.—From a commanding position on a jutting rock, and quite close to the brink where the rushing, foaming waters break over the cliff and fall to the depth of one hundred and forty feet, this excellent picture of "Running Wa- ters" was made, of what is known as Up- ner Falls on the beautiful Yellowstone River.
