at the very moment when the beast was
destroyed the land was suddenly con-
verted into glacial region. This sus-
tains the recently developed Vailian or
Apnular theory in accounting for their
destruction. His exact words are.
"C'est done le meme instant qui tait
Eerir les animaux, ct qui q rendu glacial
10 pays qn'ils habitaient, Get evene-
ment subit, instantane, sans
acune gradation."* Glaciers were
formed ip olden time by the de.
clension OF annular vapors, and the
down rush was sudden and overwhelm-
ing, bringing instant death to all animal
life. Although this could not have &C.
Cured later than the Noachin deluge, yet
many of the animals, as the mammoth,
rhinoceroe, etc., remain undecayed.
Even the capillary blood vessels still re-
tain their contents showing that there
was not the slightest decomposition or
breaking down of the tissues, but that
the catastrophe which overwhelmed
them was sudden. The climate was
changed as by a stroke which CONCEALED
and sealed the land in ice, locking the
mammoth and other animals therein to
repose in the icy beds for ages to come.
Had these animals not been frozen as
soon as killed, putrifaction and decom-
position must have take place. Nothing
but the downrush OF enowe from the
earth's annular system could have done
this.
The mammoth attained immense size.
Some full grown males were Is feet high
and 25 feet long. The tusks we're 10 feet
long and greatly curved. Their strength
was rrodiaious.

AN INTERNATIONAL EPISODE.
Edin urgh's Monument to Scotch-A Amer
tcan Soldiers.


lean Soldiers.
An incident occurred last month in
the ancient and historic city of Edin-
burgh, Scotland. which was witnessed
by thousands of subjects of her Britain
mic majesty Queen Victoria, and Ameri-
can citizens, in connection with the
unveiling of a magnificent monument
in itself glorious tribute to the mem
ory of blue and gray Scotch-Americans
who fell in the civil war, and who lie
buried in Cotton graveyard.
The monument is life-size bronze
statue OF the martyr president, Abraham
Lincoln, and was subscribed for by
Americans and Britons on the British
Isles, and it is one OF the finest memo
rails ever erected to illustrious dead in
the world.
Wallace Bruce, the American consul
at Edinburgh, unveiled the monument
in the presence of English and Scotch
nobility, and as "Old Glory" and the
"Union Jack" were drawn aside the
British soldiers presented arms as the
guns thundered forth fitting salute
and tribute to the memory of Americas
dead, while above the din could be
heard the strains of American and Brit
ish national anthems.
Grand Army men in blue uniforms
faced British infantry and HighlanderG
standing to arms under the stare and
stripes.

Haising Turkeya.

The turkey, under domestication, is
difficult bird to raise, and requires great
care and constant attention for the first
month OF its life. II the mother ia al
lowed to wander out with her brood in
the wet grass in tae morning or after
showers. the chicks are very likely to
take cold and die. The young birds
should be confined in pen or coop until
they are strong enough TO bear the
fatigue of wandering about the field.
For the first day after the chicks are
hatched they should not be fed or dis
tnrbed. If the eggs hatch irregularly,
then the fret chicks to come out should
be removed and fed when "a hours old,
and returned to the nest when all the eggs
are Matched. The first food should be
stale bread, moistened with milk or
water. When few days old cornmeal,
cooked rice and similar food. may be
given, but only in such quantities ss the
chicks will eat up clean each time they
are fed, which should be at least four
times a day. Lice on turkeys and
chickens are readily destroyed by scat
tering -four of sulphur in the nests
where the mother broods them. In set.
ting o hen turkey tablespoonful OF
sulphur should always be thrown in the
nest at the time OF giving the birds the
eggs, and this will prevent lice breeding
on the old bird or infesting the
chicks. In regard to employing
common barnyard fowls as moth
ers of turkeys authorities differ.
Some claim that the hen turkey
is never 30 good mother as the hens OF
our ordinary barnyard fowls, on account
OF her natural roaming habits, while
others are quite as pronounced.in her
favor. But as the eggs of our bsrnyard
fowls hetch in from Is 10 81 DAYS, while
those of the turkey in from rs to 30,
there is danger of the common hen aban-
doning her nest at the end OF her natural
period of incubation of three weeks.
The Brahmas. Cocbins and similar large
and heavy breeds OF fowls are large
enough to sit month If necessary, and
for this reason make very good mothers
for turkeys. York Sun.

WHY IS THIS?

The bill for the admi' sion OF Arizona
to statehood contains an article provid-
ing for The apprnp Iatlon of lands fol-
university pUrposes, also cne spec't
caliy appr, prati.g lands for an agricul-
tuial college Th sa are wise provi-
sions, but 1t is somewhat peculiar that
the great industry # mining is overlook
ed. We trust this is an oversight which
will be - once corrected. No advocate
of statehood bill who fails to do justice
to the industry which has made this
country what It is, can expect tc re-
ceive the euifl ages OF the miners of this
State. The peculiar thing about the
matter is that, when the a0m sslOu bills
W re up bsfDre the last congress, there
were provisions for donating $1,000 acres
of land for a school of mines to eacn If
the proposed states of New Mexico and
Utah, but while the Ariz ma bill was
the same in most orher particulars, this
clause was not in 1t.
DR.. Comstock. director OF the Arizoua
school of mines, who has been presis-
tently working up our res9 'rces and
investigating them without the ad-
vantage of r. special fund for the pur-
lose, was much exercised over this omIs-
sior last time, and, be has, therefore
watched the new bill with great interest.
At the time Of the discussion of the
former, ,bl'l by congress he telegraphed
quaintauce to look after the matter.
This gentleman wrote in r. ply that
Mr.. Carey the introducer OF the blli
had received Mark Smiths approval to
the same, and that he could not change
II. That bill heiHg killed by the ad-
j Iunment OF congr IS, nOfurther acton
WAS necessary.
Now, in the new bill no mention is
made of the school of Mines, and bill
f.r the appropriation of $4,000 an
nually from sales of public lands for the
benefit of mining schools was passed IN
the extra ses ion of congress without
any revision fer its extension to the
territories.
Oa Wednesday of this week DR. Com

right to force their opinions on another.

the contrary as republicans, we rather

way of stimulating the antagonists to

best wishes of all good republicans. But

and came from the east, which is
afraid of the far west because OF its
views on the financial and other ques-
tisns. This jealousy, however, will
not be allowed any weight in congress.

the way it acted SO promptly in the
