The Birth of an Iceberg.

The dynamical law by which the
glaciers abutting on the sea generate
their bergs is still somewhat vague.
In earlier days it was held that the
glacial tongue broke off by its own
weight. To this has succeeded the fol-
lowing explanation, perhaps more
popularly than scientifically accepted.
Moving down the fiords to the ocean
the glaciers front enters the waves. at
first ploughing up the sea bottom into
deep furrow. But as the ice Prov
pushes out over the sloping ocean
floor, the weight resting upon the
bottom steadily diminishes. The float
ing power of the water tends constant
ly to lift the ice, which is held down
by the rigidity of the glacial sheet be-
low its normal sea line. Moving on
still, the glaciers front reaches the
point in deeper waters where it is lift
ed from the bottom altogether. Still it
remains unbroken, the strength of the
sheet, hundreds of feet in thickness,
holding it. But as it proceeds, the
awful leverage on the unsupported
tongue wakes. 1t is like the van of an
army drawn farther and farther away
from its main body, and encountering
increasing attacks on the foe. Each
surge of the tide, every onset of storm,
racks it's structure. At last comes the
point where the hardly sustaining
equilibrium of forces ends, and the
glacial tip breaks away into the float
ing berg. Finally we have third and
more recent hypothesis based on the
upper and lower parts of the glacier
This latest theory asserts that the
glacial front is thrust over from above
BY the swifter descent of it's upper
portion-a movement which may be
roughly likened to the breaking comb
of a sea wave sweeping to the shore.
But whatever the specific direction
of the force which expels the berg from
the glacier, the grandeur of the phe-
nomena which often attend it is with
out question. Constantly the brow of
the glacier over the sea is shaking off
with sharp explosions smaller masses
of ice, which drop to the water in
cloudlets of spray. Suddenly there
comes a set of louder and deeper
blasts that blend into subterranean
roar A great section of the fissured
front of the glacier bends, with water
| falls pouring from it's sides. and OBJ
scured in clouds of vapor from the cold
surfaces newly exposed to the air. As
these clear away, the broken-off
glacial tongue surges down, forcing up
a wave of water dangerous to near
vessels. to boats or men at the waters
edge. Up and down the newborn
berg sways, moving, meanwhile, slow
ly away from the glacier and out to
sea. 1t has been born amid the travail
of the icy elements to begin its life
Journey that is to be long or short, ac-
cording to its own size and the places
to which the currents of air and water
are to bear it.-CLdrence Denaing, IN

when my valet informed me that
lady, closely yelled, wished to see me,

sentiment.

bewildered at the feet of Miss Stafford.

A Heated Discussion.

On Walnut street, near Twentieth,
live a young married couple who have
two children-a boy, a girl, aged, re-
spectively, 5 and z. The young mother
has ideas of her own about raising
children in the way they should go and
does her best to inculcate right princi-
pies in them. The other day, hearing
a noise in the kitchen. she went to the
back stairs and listened. Imagine her
horror at hearing her son using de-
cidedly bad language to the cook. She
said nothing. but waited until the
young hopeful came up, when she
asked:
Where were you, my son?'
"Down in the kitchen talking tc
cook" was the ready reply.
what were you talking about?' said
the mother.
Hell, was the astounding answer.
"And what did you tell her about it?''
Looking up cheerily in his mother 8

Indians In the BOYS Town.

If they could, the boys would rather
have been Indians than anything else,
but as there was really no hope of this
whatever, they were willing to be set
tiers. and fight the Indians. They
had rather mixed mind about them
in the meantime, but perhaps they
were not unlike other idolaters in both
fearing and adoring their idols; per-
haps they came pretty near being In
dams in that, and certainly they came
nearer than they knew. The boys
lived in the desire, if not the hope, of
some time seeing an Indian, and they
made the most of the Indians in the
CIRCUS, whom they knew to be just
white men dressed up; but none of
them dreamed that what really hap
pened one day could ever happen.
This was the arrival of several canal
boatloads of genuine Indians from the
Wyandot Reservation in the north
western part of the state, on their way
to new lands beyond the Mississippi
The boys fathers must have known
that these Indians were coming, but it
just shows how stupid the most of
fathers are, that they never told the
boys about it. All at once, there the
Indians were, as if the canal-boats had
dropped with them out of heaven.
There they were, crowding the decks,
in their blankets and moccasins, braves
and squaws and pappooses, standing
about or squatting in groups, not say
ing anything, and looking exactly like
the pictures. The squaws had the
pappooses on their backs, and the men
and boys had bows and arrows in their
hands; and as soon as the boats landed
the Indians, all except the squaws and
pappooses, came ashore, and went
up to the courthouse yard, and be-
gan to shoot with their bows and ar
rows. 1t almost made the boys crazy.
OF course they would like to have
the Indians shoot at birds or some
game, but they were mighty glad to
have them shoot at cents and bits and
quarters that anybody could stick up
in the ground. The Indians would all
shoot at the mark till some one hit it,
and the one who hit it had the money,
whatever it was. The boys ran and
brought back the arrows; and they
were so proud to do this that wonder
they lived through it. My boy was
too bashful to bring the Indians their
arrows; he could only stand apart and
long to approach the filthy savages,
whom he revered; to have touched the
border of one of their blankets would
have been too much. Some of them
were rather handsome. and two or
three of the Indian boys were so pretty
that the Boys Town boys said they
were girls. They were of all ages.
from old, withered men to children of
six or seven, but they were all alike
grave and unsmiling; the old men
were not whit more dignified than
the children, and the children did not
enter into their sport with more zeal
and ardor than the wrinkled sages who
shared it.
After the red men had fitted away
like red leaves their memory remained
with the boys, and plague OF bows
and arrows ragged among them, and it
was good while before they calmed
down to their old desire of having a
gun. = W. D. HoUells, in Ha7per's

MAcARoNI AND THE BEAR.
Chase of an Armed but Absent-Minded
italian Around Big Tree.

The black bears that live in the great
redwood forests of Humboldt county
are so shy and so hard to find when
one has gun loaded for them that
there is painful dearth of good bear
yarns in the logging camps. says New
River (Cal.) correspondent of the N.
Y. San, and when anybody does get
into scrape with bear he tells the
truth, because he is out of practice in
the other sort of storytelling. There
is no doubt that Macaroni's adventure
occurred just as he described it when
he returned from the woods.
Macaroni is an Italian ''swamper"
employed by the mill company. His
true name is something else and hard
to pronounce, and the lumbermen find
it easier to call him after his national
dish. Macaroni is a little more enter
prising than his fellows, and the other
day he borrowed a gun and went up the
river to shoot something. He stirred
a black bear up from a comfortable
nap beside log and blew one of his
ears off with charge of shot, and then
he had to run for his life. Macaroni
soon discovered that he had no earthly
show in a straight-away race, and he
tried lodging around big redwood
about fifteen feet thick. The bear
lodged. too, and then began weari-
some race around the tree.
The Italian had good pair of legs
and sound lungs, and, being able to
seize the rough bark and swing him.
self on the turns. he had a little ad-
vantage of the bear and ran in
~, o1o Fba
along behind him, growing and snort
ing. but could not catch him, and
Macaroni did not dare to break away
on straight stretch. Sometimes the
Italian put on extra speed and found
himself chasing the bear. and then he
had to slack up little. Once he got
SO close that the bear noticed the
change in the situation and turned
around, and Macaroni had to double
the other way.
There is some doubt as to the dura-
ton of the race. although Macaroni
says he thinks it lasted the best part of
the afternoon. A little exaggeration
is only natural under such circum-
stances, and Macaroni is excusable, in
the estimation of bear-hunters, for not
timing himself or the bear with pain
full accuracy. At last the Italian re-
membered that he had a gun in his
hand-a fact that had escaped his no.
tice for some time owing to- his absorb
ing interest in the action of his legs
and he managed to put fresh ear
fridge into the barrel as he ran. Then
he made a desperate squirt, caught up
with the bear in two or three turns,
and let both barrels ffy at close ranpa
into the. middle of bruins back. The
gun, was SO close to the bear that the
bird.shot struck him in solid Jumps and
broke his spine as effectively as rifle
balls could have done it.
Two of the boys who went back with
Macaroni to bring the dead bear in de-
clare that the Italian and bruin had
worn well-beaten track around the
redwood. The bear weighed a little
over 200 pounds.

How to Keep Ice.

There are three or four things. that
will help to keep the pEecious nugget
of ice from melting away if the house
keeper will only remember them. One
is that to keep ice warm is the way to
keep it cold. A piece of ice in a pitcher
with pail over the pitcher and a rug
over the pail, will keep all night. <
piece of ice in a refrigerator, covered
with. snug white blanket will cheat
the greedy ice-man every day, and
snap saucy fingers at the milk that
does not dare to get sour or the beef
steak that dares not fail. These things
are admirable in their way and should
be in every hatband. but the greatest
trick of all is newspapers. With plenty
of newspapers above, below and on
every side the way a piece of ice will
keep is a joke.

Why She Occupied Two Seats.

4 woman, who may have come from
Perrysburg or somewhere, got on a
street car yesterday at my corner. The
car was full of passengers of her own
sex, but there would have been seat
for her but for one woman. who per-
sisted in sitting sideways and ignoring
the presence of the passenger who
was hanging on the strap. The new
conner looked long and earnestly at
the one who was sitting sideways,
then. STOPPING little, said sympathet-
ically;
''Got boil, / reckon?"
Although there were not many men
present to snicker, the bell rang in
stanter, and one enraged feminine left
the car.-IOlcd0 Blade
