GLACIERS IN IDAHO.
An Immense Field Discovered Among
Mountain Peaks.

An Immense Field Discovered Among
Mountain Peaks.
An immense glacial field has been dis
covered in the unexplored region Of
central Idaho by T. B. Schermerhorn,
geologist and mineralogist, who was
working in the interest of Idaho's ex-
hibit at the worlds fair, says the San
Francisco Chronicle. Under the date of
August he writes Commissioner Weels
as follows:
"As came over the divide into Big
Creek saw away to the west, among
the high mountains, what appeared to
be glacier. Inquiry at Big Creek de-
veloped the fact that though two of the
men in camp had lived there several
years they had never been able to get
up to that snow. They also told me
many had tried it and failed. All had
tried to take horses with them. I deter
mined to go on foot.
LAS advanced the signs of the white
man decreased until they disappeared
altogether. The country through which
I made my way was the widest and
toughest Of any through which ever
travelled in point of grandeur and
picturesque beauty. The view from the
peaks rivals anything in mountain
scenery in the United States.
Beneath the glacial field 1 found
series of glacial lakes. The
glacial fields are quite extensive. They
probably cover nearly as great an area,
though not so thick as the great glacial
fields of the Alps. examined sixteen
terminal moraines. Of this number
eleven were receding, four stationary,
and only one advancing. None that l
saw extended more than two thousand
feet below the snow line"
The writer says that the glaciers are
located about thirty-ive miles south
west of Shoup, amid number of very
high peaks that are not down on the
maps.

MOURNING CLOTHES IN Russia
White Worn Instead of the Depressing
Black.


Black.
Russia is far ahead of every other
country Of Europe, except Denmark, in
one thing, at least; that is in the matter
of mourning clothes. Beautiful and rich
as is the mourning of to-day, there is
something fearfully depressing about
the costume of unmitigated woe which
casts gloom over everybody. How
much more becoming white would be-
white Grape and white henriettal How
fetching a pretty young widow would
be in white weeds, exclaims the Com
mercial Gazette, with a long cream-col-
ored Grape veil hanging down her back
and a bunch of deep purple violets nest
ling on her bodice. White mourning has
been introduced into Denmark by the
czarina and has already been adopted
by the English princess, who, it is
hoped, will transplant the custom on
English soil. The czarina recently
wore a gown of cream-colored silk
warp henrietta. A fold of white crepe
half a yard wide trims the Russian
skirt around the bottom, and bands OF
it ornament the bodice and form the
collar and cuffs. Her small bonnet is
of dull-fnished white silk, entirely con,
cealed by her long white Grape veil
which falls down her back. White un,
dressed mousquetaire gloves, heavily
stitched, were worn with it and her
| majesty carried a translucent paraso
entirely made of sheer white Grape.

A WELL OF ICE WATER.
One of Dakota's Convenient and Natural
rAaa


Luxurles.
A well-known Hartford lawyer, who
has been travelling in the northwest.
has come back with a story of an ex-
ceptionally natural convenience, the
contemplation Of which, in this trop-
ical season, says the Hartford Courant,
refreshes ones soul, unless it breeds
uneasy envy.
He was stopping with family in
North Dakota. 1t was in July, and
clear, cold water-a luxury he did not
frequently fnd-was most acceptable.
The water on the table was SO very
sweet and SO very cold that he was led
to remark on its excellence.
Eyes, our well has always satisfied us,
and we think we have a good thing
when we can draw ice water in mid
summer"
cit certainly is as cold as ice water, "
mark was meant exactly literally.
mo, but It's actually ice water; we'll
show 1t to you after dinner"
And after dinner out they went, and
the New England man was asked to
look down. 1t was a round small brick
shaft, much like the old wells seen here
anu WSnU OO"u W I'LL
binary depth. But there was a beauti-
full sight at the bottom. 1t was, sure
enough, a natural ice water tank. Pieces
of clear ice hoated in the water, and a
close look showed thick coating of ice
all around the sides for quite distance
above the water. The melting was
surely slow enough down there, and the
prospect was good for plenty of ice
water, at least till the hot weather was
over.
The explanation was simple enough.
When the bucket is drawn a little OF
the water always spills or drips, and
often strikes the sides of the well as ii
falls. In the winter-and Dakota win
tiers are cold-this water at once freezes,
and soon the entire length of the shaft
is lined with ice. This thickens at an
increasing rate, and it is frequently
necessary to cut it away with an ak to
make room in which the bucket can
slide up and down. In the spring this
begins to melt, and the ice falls to the
bottom. The farther down, the slower
Is the process of melting.

May Reopen the scbuylkin Canal.

READING, Pa, Nov. There is 8
rumor here, which appears to be we'll
founded, that the Philadelphia & Reading
Railroad company intends reopening the
Schuylkll canal next year for an ex-
tensive traffic in coal, when large num-
Der of boats will be added to the feet
now using this waterway. The proposed
move, it is learned, is for the purpose Of
relieving the main line of the road
which has been so crowded for some time
as to result in frequent distractions of
the tracks.

white-Hot Iron In Bare Hands.

An interesting sight is afforded the
belated pedestrian who passes the Bald
win locomotive works about midnight,
says the Philadelphia Press. Dozens OF
men with bare arms are dexterously
handling countless bars of red-hot iron.
They will throw a bar white with heat
from one to another and catch it with
metal tongs. Others pick up the glow
ing iron and hold it fully two seconds.
This is accomplished by dipping the
hand after each clutch. Huge sparks
fly all about, but never seem to damage
the human flesh SO freely exposed. Ac-
cidents are very rare in this department
of the works.

There are 444 electoral votes and 223
are necessary to choice The above es-
innate gives Cleveland and Stevenson
eight votes to spare if all the other cleo
total votes are cast for Harrison and Reid.
But the Democratic managers say that
Weaver will get anywhere from thirty to
fifty electoral votes, which will further
reduce the votes of Harrison and Reid.
Hugh Wallace, National Committee
man from Washington, is at National
Headquarters looking after the canvass on
the Pacific slope. He says that Harrison
and Reid will lose twenty votes to the
fusion ticket west of the Rocky Noun
tains.
In several of the Pacific slope States
the Democrats have combined with the
Peoples party on electoral tickets for the
purpose of cutting down the Republican
vote in the Electoral College, and they
are confident of getting twenty votes in
that section.
In Minnesota the Democratic managers
say Harrison will lose four votes, and
they are confident he will lose Nebraska
and possibly the Dakotas.

rNTTEPS1 OTTLIUS.

There was a time when many law-abidlng
people looked with tolerance, II not with APP
proyal, upon the dongs Of the White Caps"
Ii was true that these midnight raiders COM
mitted deeds of violence that were distinctly
extra-legal. But they only punished people
who deserved to be punished, and who were
technically beyond the reach of the law. So
esteemng the spirit of justice above the letter
of the law, some persons acqueSced in the rude
equity that was dealt out by the first White
Caps Presently, however the case changed
altogether. Whenever men had grudge
against another, or wished 70 crush a business
rival. or even desired to plumber his goods, they
assumed the guisc of White Caps and thus did
their despicable work. To-day there is no
term more significant of that which is coward
". and vile. and criminal, than that of White
Can. which at the first had an almost honor
able meaning.
We suppose that there are, or have been,
some people who have brooded over social
wrongs until they have honestly become An
archists. We are willing to cOnccdc that 1t
has been possible for persons to be honest in
the belief that social progress is best to be
made by plunging the world into social chaos.
ing ont. But the time for such beliefs must
surely now be past. Whatever the theorizng
Anarchist of the past may have been, there can
be no mistake about the practising Anarchist
of the present, as he is revealing himself in
France and Spain and Belgium and elsewhere
He is not social reformer. lie is not seek
ing good ends by evil means. lie is not po-
ltical offender. He is criminal pure and
simple. lie is one who will not work, and yet
claims that the world owes him living and
he proposes, if possible, to collect that debt by
means OF violence, theft and murder. The
wretch Ravachol, who was arrested last week
in Paris, put the case frankly: " murdered
two sisters to procure money to assist the cause
| won't work. Every one hay
ing nothing ought to rob and murder"
Humanitarian principles have no bearing
upon such case. 1t is not question OF social
reform 1t is question of criminal law The
Anarchists by their own avowal are outside the
pale of human sympathy. Their meetings are
not social or political demonstrations, but Grim
inal gatherings. Their deliberations are not
agitations for reform, but consbiIacies for crime
Their organization is not for the working out
of social or political changes, but for whole
sale outrage, arson, theft and murder. They
have no more right to hold public meetings
than would gang Of professional bank
burglars. They have no more claim to poiti-
cal asylum than Jack the Ripper.
1t is well to keep these things in mind in view
of the fact that France is expelling all known
Anarchists, and they are likely to set their
faces hitherward. There should be no room
for them in America, on any plea. They have
turned their hands against all men, and it is
fitting that the hands of all men should be
turned against them. Political vagaries and
social eccentricities may harmlessly be toler-
ated. But no excuse can justify the liberation
