People's Pilot, Volume 2, Number 37, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 3 March 1893 — Sonoma Geysers. [ARTICLE]

Sonoma Geysers.

Sonoma county, Cal., will send a unique exhibit to the world’s fair. It will be a representation of the geysers, one of the great natural curiosities of the state. The model will be thirtytwo feet long, twenty-eight feet wide and eighteen feet high. One of the great spouting caldrons of steam will be represented by real rock and imitation in staff, while a background will be painted to represent the most picturesque view of the canon, from which scores of geysers arise. Artificial lights in various colors will reproduce the peculiar play of color seen in the gorge. The semblance of the hot springs is to be (bade by use of steam pipes. In the foreground will be placed a huge allegorical figure of “The Demon of the Geysers,” modeled by Eupert Schmid.
