All rights reserved. - - - - -[Illustration: GENERAL VIEW OF THE FALLS. - -Favorite positions for this view are Hennepin View in Prospect Park and -the New Steel Bridge. At the left is the American Fall with Luna Island -and Goat Island dividing it from the Horseshoe Fall. The Maid of the -Mist, near her landing, and the inclined railway are minor objects of -interest.] - - -[Illustration: CANADIAN FALL, AND MAID OF THE MIST. - -A trip on the “Maid of the Mist” past the Falls is one of the most -fascinating of the experiences to be had at Niagara. The views of the -descending floods, the swirling water below and the rainbow through the -mist all lend enchantment to the trip.] - - -[Illustration: AMERICAN FALL FROM PROSPECT POINT. - -It is while standing at or near Prospect Point that the very large -majority of people who visit Niagara get their first view of the -wondrous cataract. At one wide sweep of vision Niagara is before you -and you see the water pour over the edge of the precipice, falling with -stupendous power on the rocks below.] - - -[Illustration: AMERICAN FALL FROM BELOW. - -Standing on the rocks at the foot of the Inclined Railway in Prospect -Park and looking at the down-pour of water over the American Fall, a -new impression of Niagara’s greatness comes over you, and you marvel at -the beauty of the mighty flood.] - - -[Illustration: THE FALLS BY MOONLIGHT. - -Under the light of the full moon of summer time, when Nature has done -her best to make the locality all about delightful, the mind is made -receptive of the moonlight softness, and the beauty of the scene -impresses all with its magnificence.] - - -[Illustration: PROSPECT POINT IN WINTER. - -In winter and summer alike Prospect Point is one of the main vantage -spots from which to view Niagara. Immediately below the Point the -mountain grows to an unlimited size as the spray freezes, and builds it -by night and by day. In the ice bridge season there is no better place -to view it than Prospect Point.] - - -[Illustration: TERRAPIN ROCK AND HORSESHOE FALL FROM GOAT ISLAND. - -The Horseshoe or Canadian Fall, as a single object, is regarded as -the sublimest thing in Nature. The Canadian Rapids have a fall of 55 -feet in three-quarters of a mile before reaching the Falls, while it -is estimated that the volume of water is ten times greater than that -passing over the American Fall.] - - -[Illustration: HORSESHOE FALL FROM BELOW. - -The height of the Horseshoe Fall is 165 feet and the stupendous nature -of the Fall is more impressive when the visitor stands at the water’s -edge in the gorge and looks upward at the flood descending in such -graceful lines.] - - -[Illustration: TERRAPIN POINT IN WINTER. - -The scene at Terrapin Point in winter is one of brilliancy and -splendor. The spray-cloud of the Horseshoe Fall is wafted to the -shores of Goat Island where King Winter’s breadth congeals it all to -a marble-like formation, and the snowy whiteness of the spectacle is -dazzling in the bright sunlight.] - - -[Illustration: ICE MOUNTAIN AND ICE BRIDGE. - -The beauty of this scene varies yearly, for the wind and weather have -all to do with the magnitude of the formations. When the weather is -exceedingly cold the ice mountain, between the American Fall and the -Inclined Railway, attains a magnificent height. The ice also forms from -shore to shore, enabling people to pass at will to the Canadian side, -and forming what is popularly called the ice bridge.] - - -[Illustration: OBSERVATION TOWER VIEW OF GOAT ISLAND AND RAPIDS. - -This view shows “the dividing of the waters” of Niagara River, and in -the immediate front the American Rapids are seen flowing tumultuously -onward towards the towering cataract. Far across beyond Goat Island are -the Canadian Rapids. The greater grandeurs and immense boundaries of -which are best seen from Victoria Park on the Canadian side.] - - -[Illustration: BRINK OF THE AMERICAN FALL. - -Probably there is no one sight which impresses itself more strongly -upon the great majority of beholders than this view of the brink of -the American Fall. Such mighty on-rushing torrents, so powerful, yet -so smoothly and alluringly moving on over the precipice, and so near -is the visitor to what seems an abyss of destruction that the scene is -never forgotten.] - - -[Illustration: THE AMERICAN FALL FROM GOAT ISLAND. - -This view across American Fall is one never to be forgotten. Here the -brink of the Fall is seen in all its beauty, while far across the Fall, -Prospect Park, with its constant crowds, forms part of the picture. A -fine view of the Upper Steel Bridge is also here enjoyed.] - - -[Illustration: HORSESHOE FALL BY SEARCHLIGHT. - -This photographic masterpiece, the crest of the Horseshoe Fall by -searchlight, taken from Falls View, is the only one of its kind ever -made. “The scene is entrancing as the searchlight kisses the water into -new beauty.” - -ON THE BRIDGE AT MIDNIGHT. This is a night scene, the Upper Steel -Bridge, made possible by the recent advancement in photography.] - - -[Illustration: WHIRLPOOL RAPIDS. - -The Whirlpool Rapids begin within sight of the Falls. The gorge narrows -to 300 feet and the current rushes onward at a speed of 40 miles an -hour and the foam-crested waters are entrancingly beautiful.] - - -[Illustration: THE WHIRLPOOL. - -The Whirlpool is about two miles below the Falls and is the greatest -known river pocket. Into it the Rapids plunge in all their fury, and a -gyrating motion is given the entire body of water. Here the river turns -at right angles, causing one of the most mysterious and fascinating -features of this mighty stream of water.] - - -[Illustration: - - INCLINED RAILWAY. - AMERICAN FALL. - LUNA ISLAND. - CAVE OF THE WINDS. - GOAT ISLAND. - HORSESHOE FALL. - TABLE ROCK. - VICTORIA PARK. - -PANORAMIC VIEW OF NIAGARA FALLS FROM THE CANADIAN SIDE.] - - -[Illustration: THE CANADIAN RAPIDS AND HORSESHOE FALL, FROM FALLS VIEW -STATION. - -This is one of the grand views to be had from the Canadian side of -the river. The rapids, by their great descent and vastness, convey -an impressive effect to the mind, and, together with the Falls and -scenery of Victoria Park, combines to make one of the most pleasing -pictures about Niagara. The entire length of the park is traversed by -the electric cars, which are so great a convenience about Niagara, for -tourists.] - - -[Illustration: AMERICAN FALL FROM CANADIAN SIDE. - -Standing in Victoria Park, one gets a full front view of the American -Fall, while at the right of the scene is Center Fall, flowing between -Luna and Goat Islands. The American Fall has a width of 1,000 feet, a -height of 158 feet, while the Rapids above descend forty feet in a half -mile. All visitors should go to the Canadian side for the Canadian Fall -and Rapids, the most imposing features of the Falls, are there best -seen with their wonderful rainbow and mist effects, while the beauties -of Victoria Park itself well repay a visit.] - - -[Illustration: THE GORGE. - -The life work of Niagara River has been and continues to be the digging -of the Niagara Gorge through which it flows. Those who have studied the -subject thoroughly have reached the conclusion that the great trench -was excavated by the running of the river itself. In its length, the -gorge is in one sense a measure of the age of the river.] - - -[Illustration: SCENE ON THE “GORGE ROUTE.” - -This Electric road runs along the New York Shore, for much of the way, -about twenty feet up from the water, and affords unequaled views of the -Whirlpool Rapids, the great bridge and cliffs, the Whirlpool and all -scenic features. The objects of interest along the Gorge Route are only -second to the two great cataracts themselves.] - - -[Illustration: HORSESHOE OR CANADIAN FALL IN WINTER. - -The intensity of the mighty grasp of winter is at no point better -portrayed than in its effects on the Horseshoe Fall. Gradually the -waters are chilled and frozen until where yesterday the river plunged -over the precipice in gleeful, laughing manner, huge stalactites of ice -are hung reaching from the cliff-top to the slope below.] - - -[Illustration: ICE FORMATION AT CAVE OF THE WINDS. - -In February, 1896, for a period of four days, the Cave of the Winds -was dry, the water of the Fall being kept back by the ice formation. -Visitors sought the cavern and roamed about admiring the icy scenes on -every side. The photograph for the picture above was then made, and it -may never be possible to obtain the same again.] - - -[Illustration: UPPER STEEL ARCH BRIDGE. - -This wonderful example of man’s handiwork connects the extreme lower -points of Prospect Park on the American side, with Victoria Park on the -Canadian side. It has a single deck, is 1,268 feet long, 49 feet wide -and 190 feet above the water, and was built in 1898. Splendid views are -had from this bridge.] - - -[Illustration: THE ICE PALACE. - -The Ice Palace, a thing of beauty in the production of which man -essayed to supplement Nature, was erected in the State Reservation in -the winter of 1898. “An area of 120 by 160 feet was covered by its -gleaming walls of crystal. The entire structure was gay with bunting -and flags by day and brilliant with electrical illumination by night.”] - - -[Illustration: BRIDGES AT NIAGARA. - - LUNA ISLAND BRIDGE. BRIDGE TO THIRD SISTER ISLAND. - - BRIDGE TO SECOND SISTER ISLAND. RUSTIC BRIDGE TO WILLOW ISLAND.] - - -[Illustration: LOWER STEEL ARCH BRIDGE. - -This bridge spans the river at its narrowest part. It was built in 1897 -by the Grand Trunk Railroad Company. It has two decks, the upper for -railway trains and the lower for carriages and pedestrians. The arch -has a span of 550 feet.] - - -[Illustration: TABLE ROCK AND THE DEVIL’S PULPIT. - -This rocky plateau is located over the Devil’s Hole, on the American -side, 300 feet above the wild waters of the Gorge. It has been -the scene of many recorded and traditional battles and sanguinary -struggles. Grand sweeps of scenery are to be witnessed from this -commanding site.] - - -[Illustration: DEVIL’S HOLE. - -The Devil’s Hole is a dark and gloomy chasm in the high bank, and has a -depth of 150 feet. It is said to have been a store house for ammunition -in early times. It is reached by the City trolley line and by the Gorge -Road.] - - -[Illustration: BROCK’S MONUMENT - -Stands on Queenston Heights, about four miles below the Whirlpool. It -was erected to commemorate the memory of Sir Isaac Brock who fell in -battle in the war of 1812. It is a noble shaft, 100 feet high, capped -with a statue of Brock. It is seen for many miles in all directions.] - - -[Illustration: SUSPENSION BRIDGE AT LEWISTON. - -This Suspension Bridge is now the only one which spans Niagara River. -It links Queenston on the Canadian side with Lewiston on the American -side, seven miles below the Falls, and is crossed by the Belt Line -trolley route about the Gorge. The suspended span is 800 feet, and it -has a cable span of 1040 feet.] - - -[Illustration: A FAMILIAR WINTER SCENE IN PROSPECT PARK. - -In winter the high winds which prevail, sometimes for days at a time, -catch the spray from the American Fall and carry it far back into the -forest growth, the trees become ice-laden, and the transformation that -takes place is beautiful in the extreme.] - - -[Illustration: - - THE RED MAN’S FACT THE WHITE MAN’S FANCY - -FROM THE FAMOUS PAINTINGS BY JAMES FRANCIS BROWN. - -To the Indians the thundering of the water was the voice of the Great -Spirit; the spray-cloud his habitation. A portion of the crops and -spoils of the chase were annually offered as tokens, and the fairest -maiden of a tribe was sacrificed by being sent over the falls in a -canoe laden with fruits and flowers. - -No less than the Red Man, is his successor, the White Man, impressed -with the majesty of the Creator’s power as displayed in the grandeurs -of Niagara. “Between falling flood and rising cloud, you imagine a -mystical meaning in the passage of body to soul, of matter to spirit, -of human to divine.”] - - -[Illustration: ROCK OF AGES, AT CAVE OF THE WINDS. - -Surrounded with an atmosphere of sentiment is this view at Niagara. It -forms an artistic and pleasing picture. Evidently at some remote time -in the past the rock has fallen from the cliff above. The famous cave -of the winds lies back of the Center Fall. It is 100 feet high, 100 -feet wide and 60 feet deep.] - -*** END OF THE PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK THE NEW BOOK OF NIAGARA *** - -Updated editions will replace the previous one--the old editions will -be renamed. - -Creating the works from print editions not protected by U.S. copyright -law means that no one owns a United States copyright in these works, -so the Foundation (and you!) can copy and distribute it in the -United States without permission and without paying copyright -royalties.
