A Wyoming Wonder, of naturc’s strangest 1reaks, the government is surveying with a view to making it a patof o wublic reservation, is the Devil’s tower, or, as the Sioux Indiuns call it. the Matee Tepee, located on the Belle Fourche river in northeustorn Wyom- ing. The country for fifty miles around consists of high table lunds, deop canons nod narvow, fertilo valleys —nothing to indicato the possible existence of any sueh freak of nature. The tower is a gigantic column, a wmonster obelisk of Luva, which rises to u helght of 1.7 foet, almost twice the height of the Eiffel tower. At the baso the huge shalt measures 26 foet through in one direction.
