PROVED IT BY SCRIPTURE.
st. Augustine Was Sure Nobody Lived on
tho Other Side Of the Earth.

st. Augustine Was Sure Nobody Lived on
tho Other Side Of the Earth.
st. Augustine seemed inclined to yield
q little in regard to the sphericity OF
the earth. but he fought the idea that
men exist on the other side of it, saying
that Scripture speaks of no such de-
scendants of Adam" He insists that
men could not be allowed by the Al
mighty to live there, since, if they did,
they could not see Christ at His second
coming descending through the air.
But his most coRent appeal, accord
ing to the Science Monthly, ono which
we find echoed from theologian to theo-
Logan during thousand years after
ward. is to the Nineteenth Psalm, and
to its confirmation in the Episae to the
Romans; to the words: "Their line Is
gone out through all the earth, and
their words unto the ends of the world. ;"
He dwells with great force on the fact
that st. Paul based one of his most pow
erful arguments upon this declaration
regarding the preachers of the Gospel.
declaring even more explicitly that
verify their sound went into all the
world, their words unto the ends of the
world" Henceforth we find it constant
ly declared that, as those preachers did
not go to the antipodes, no antipodes
can exist: and therefore that the sup
porters of this geographical doctrine
give the lie direct to King David and
to st. Paul, and therefore to the Holy
Ghost" Augustine taught the whole
world for over thousand years that as
there was no preaching of the Gospel
on the opposite side of the earth. there
could be no human beings there.

ALEUT CANOES.

Specimens Of These Strange Indian water
Craft Recently Brought to Washington.
Two firemen who were on the steam
er Alice Blanchard on trip to the
Yukon river, says the Seattle Post-ln-
telligencer, brought back two novel
Aleut canoes. The boats were made of
rawhide, supported by horizontal ribs.
The only opening is circular hole IN
the center, large enough for mans
body so that he can sit down. A flap of
rawhide surrounds the hole, and when
the occupant plants himself in the bot
tom of the craft he draws the Zap up,
fastening it tightly around his body I'M
der the arms This makes the boat
practically watertight, and he can pad
die along in the toughest kind OF
weather without danger OF drowning.
If his craft rolls over all he has to do is
to paw the water until he gets his head
to the surface, and the boat, having
stationary ballast, Immediately rights
itself.
Some of them are made with two
holes to accommodate two passengers.
The two brought down are the single
pattern. They are about fourteen feet
long. thirty inches across. and of a like
depth. They are very light and can
easily be carried about. The owners
are going to keep them at Lake Wash
ington. II Is said two men came down
from Alaska in one some years ago and
had been upset on numerous occasions
on the way. but they never suffered
more serious injury than getting their
shoulders wet.
