Wahke-nah Falls as shown above is an example of the marvelous scenery along the way. THE MID-PACIFIC 213 Plunging downwards from a great crag, some 600 feet high, Multnomah Falls on the Columbia River is perhaps the most fa- mous of the many wonderful expressions of nature along this historic river. 214 THE MID-PACIFIC Colorado, world famous for its scenic grandeur, lies on the great watershed of the continent. Some of the canyons of its many rivers such as the Big Thompson, are from 1,000 to 3,000 feet in depth. THE MID-PACIFIC 215 The average altitude of Wyoming is greater than in any other state. Only a few small valleys lie below 4,000 feet; vast plateaus lie between 6,000 and 7,000 feet, while many moun- tain peaks tower nearly 14,000 feet above sea level. Sho- shone Canyon is pictured here. 216 THE MID-PACIFIC Near the mouth of "The Geyser", an intermittent spring in Wyoming which flows for about twenty minutes and then for about the same period of time is dry.

  • History of St. Chrysostom's Would Be Complete Without Paying Tribute to Frederick Spalding
    The History of St. Chrysostom’s Episcopal Church HISTORY OF ST. CHRYSOSTOM’S CHURCH CHAPTER 1 Thaddeus A. Snively: First Years of the Parish, 1893-1907 Sunday, January 15, 1893. "CROWDED AND COLD. Marked Characteristics of Nearly All Street-Cars," read the lead story in that day's Chicago Tribune. "TRIALS OF WEST-SIDERS. The Early Morning Service Declared To Be Wretched. NORTH SIDE NO BETTER OFF. Even the South Side Lines Are Said To Be Falling from Grace." The poor service must have been a particular hardship during the previous days; a cold spell had gripped the city and the entire eastern third of the country for most of the preceding week, with Chicago temperatures reaching -12 by midnight on the 14th (they would drop to -16 for several hours early Sunday morning before moderating later in the day). Chicagoans suffering from the extreme weather could plan to purchase on the following day, according to their budgets, real mink capes at $25.00, astrakhan fur reefers at $20.00 or military ulsters at $7.50 from Schlesinger and Mayer's at the southeast corner of State and Madison Streets; men's winter underwear at $1.25 and 49c could be bought at the Hub on the northwest corner of State and Jackson. (Those persons preferring to shop at Marshall Field's would have had to wait a day to see what was available, since Field's did not at that time advertise on Sundays.) Much news space was devoted to the forthcoming World's Columbian Exposition: a gang of French crooks with plans to "work the Fair" had just been arrested, and an article by Caroline S.
