Below Lerdo could be seen a side river of
bluish purple fire flowing down into the Colo-
rado near the gulf, where it steamed, sputtered
and added more to the general confusion. The
river of fire is undoubtedly from the sulphur
mountain, which it is feared, has been set on
fire from the volume of burning and inflam-
mable material thrown out from the volcanoes,
which heretofore have never been known to be
guilty of anything worse than an occasional spit
of hot water.
