A Monster Alaskan Glacier.

Heading for Glacier Bay we found a
flood of bitter cold water so filled with
floating ice that it was quite impossible
10 avoid frequent collisions with masses
of more or less magnitude. There was an
almost continual humping along the
ships side as the paddle struck heavily
the ice fragments which we found it i'm
possible to avoid. There was also a dull
rcverberation as of distant thunder that
rolled over the sen to us, and when we
learned that this was the cracking of
the ice packs in the gorges we thought
with increasing %solemnity of the majesty
of the spectacle we were about to wit
ness. Thus we pushed forward bravely
toward an ice wall that stretched across
the top of the bay from one high shore
to the other. This wall of ice, a precipi-
tous bluff or palisade, is computed to be
from 200 too 500 feet in height. 1t is
certainly nowhere less thaa 900 feet, but
most of it is far nearer 500 feet above
sea level, rising directly out of it, over
hanging it and chilling the air percepti-
bly,. Picking Jul way to within a safe
distance of the glacier, we cast anchor,
and were free to go our ways for a whole
glorious day. According to Professor
John Muir-for whom the glacier is de.
servedly named-the ice wall measures
three miles across the front. Ten miles
49,.
further back it is ten miles in breadth.
Sixteen tributary glaciers unite to form
the one.-San Francisco Chronicle.

Balls That Hit in Battle.

The question has often been raised
what proportion of balls exchanged Dy
hostile armies will hit their mark and
kill9 Difficult as it is to .o.ve it exactly,
some approximate result may be arrived
at from the number of balls-estimated
at 20, 600, 000-which were fired by the
Germans in the war Of 1901. The
French army lost, in dead and wounded,
about 140, 600 men. According to this,
only one ball out of 143 fired hit its mar,
and, assuming that on IN average only /
man out OF 2 hit was actually killed, it
would seem that only one rife ball in
s5S proved fatal. If it is further con-
sidered that tho number of men wound
ed and killed by the guns of the artillery
arc included in the above estimate, ii
may safely be said that not over one
rifle ball in 1000 fred proves to be fatal.

1t is estimated that the varied ma
