THE FALLS OF Mri/r(il.ll AT THE CLOSE OF MIDSUMMER'S J)AV. The clear niountfiin torrent makes its last great leap from a vertical wall six hundred and seven feet above the Columbia River Hig'hway. If the Washington Monument stood in the pool above the Lower Falls, the top of the Monument would barely reach to the top of the Upper Falls. The fallini;- water is broken into fine spray, and on a summer afternoon in June, before "Night draws her sable curtain," the sun paints a rainbow for enchantment. [75]
