MARDI GRAS,
NEW ORLEANS, Feb. IL, 80.

NEW ORLEANS, I eO- II, oO.
Describe Mardi gras! Impossible!
a brief outline is all l can attempt.
The approach Of Rex to this loyal
city had been heralded for days by
eablegram, via Havana, then his ar
rival at the jetties, and finally at 8
o'clock p. m. on the eth be, with the
Dukes of his household, disembark-
ed from the r. E. Lee, and passed
through the principal streets Of the
city on his way to the Royal Palace
of San Carlos (St. Charles Hotel.
He was welcomed with music and q
salute of artillery, and accompanied
through the streets by bands of mu-
sic and a large military escort. The
King was pleased 10 bow most gra-
oiously to the throng who lined the
streets and crowded the galleries
along the line. In each of the car
riages in the royal cortege rode one
or two members of the Royal Host,
Notwithstanding which has
never until this year occurred, a
great mystery being maintained as
to the personality of Rex himself,
and the gentlemen of his court. A
baggage wagon in the procession
bore the treasure of the royal party.
One large box, surmounted by gid
ed ooronet, bore the inscription 'jew-
els;" another inscription in gold let
ters on a perfectly immense "Sara-
toga' trunk was ''specie." In the
evening Rex and his Dukes attended
the Grand Opera House (nearly op-
posite), the party arriving in car
rriages at the brilliantly lighted en-
trance. As they alighted rockets
were sent into the sky, Illuminating
still more brightly the beautiful
theatres 'front.' which was hung with
tags, many Of them being tie Gar

A Glacial Period Predicted.

In lecture at Lake View, ILL.,, Pro-
fessor Paige developed, among many
other theories, the rapid growing be-
lief that the great ice period that
ground the rocks into soil had been at
tribuUed to time too remote in the
earth's history. He said it had been
the quite universally accepted opinion
that the great ice caps were formed by
climate rendered cold by reason of
changed cosmic relations. 1t was
known that the eccentricity of the
earth's path around the sun was sub
ject, at long periods, to considerable
change, resulting in carrying the earth
out from the sun some l5,000,000 of
miles further at times than now. The
earth's great aphelion, together with
changed conditions attributable to the
procession of the equinox, was be-
lieved to have produced the great
periods of ice in the past.
From this standpoint of reckoning
Clifford claims man to have been on
earth 100000 years. The professor
said he believed the modern tendency
of thought was in favor of different
view. During the winter in our north
ern hemisphere, we are 25, ,0o0, 900 miles
nearer to the sun than in summer. This
helps to equalize our climate, render.
ing the winters much more mild, and
the summers heat far less than it would
be if the conditions were reversed. In
the southern hemisphere the exact re-
verse state of conditions exists. They
are nearer the sun in summer and
further off in winter They have cold
winters and hot summers. At the
south pole there is vast excess of ice
over that of the north pole. The vast
accumulation of ice at the south pole
attracts the waters of the ocean, chang
ing the equilibrium of the earth's cen
ter, moving the equator to the south,
drawing off the waters of the north
pole toward the south pole. This ac-
counts for the clearly noticeable sub
.sidence of waters in the north, and fol
the fact that there is but little dry land
in the southern hemisphere.
Ifthe ages of ice can be charged up to
these causes, glacial period is ap.
preaching in the southern hemisphere
and will be at its greatest height in
$500 years. The last period of i'e in
the northern hemisphere is also o.
equally recent date, occurring probably
about 5000 years ago. The lecturer
was of opinion that, if these recent views
proved correct, there would be re
currence of the ice period in about l6,
900 years in the northern hemisphere
This view would also shorten the tim
of mans existence on the globe.
was probably safe to say that man hat
not existed more than $4,000 or 100,
900 years.
