NIAGARA FALLS WEA RING OUT.

Changes Ia the Shape of the Ledge Over
Which the waters Pour.
Formerly the Cana dian side Of the
Niagara falls was U-shaped, which
caused the name Horseshoe falls to be
given is For the last ten or dozen
Press, that side of the fall has been "
shaped instead Of U-shaped, the change
being caused by the wearing away of
the ledge over which the waters pour.
On January 4, 1899, a great displaoe-
ment of rocks again took place, and
now the Canadian side OF the great cat
sract is again Horseshoe Falls" It
is pretty generally known that the
falls of Niagara are moving to the south.
A deep cut through the solid rock marks
the course they have taken in their back
ward march.
1t is wonderful excavation. mighty
canal dug out by the sheer force of fall
ing water. Not less astonishing Is the
removal of all this debris The rocks
have been thoroughly pulverized and
sv~eps out into Lake Ontario. Once Il
was believed that the falls would ulti-
mately wear back to Lake Erie and do
generate into second-class rapids
The latest idea is that the fall viii re-
cede two miles farther to the south
ward and then stop; that Is, as far as
the backward tendency is concerned.
The cause OF this viii be that at that
point a solid foundation for the lime
stone ledge over which the waters pour
will be found. Two miles of a wearing
back will make the falls only eighty
feet IN height, instead of one hundred
and sixty, as at present

Inmates of the wardroom of an

the captain as the old man or the skip
per The latter is not as many sup
pose, slang term, but a sound word
of excellent etymology and valuable as
carrying within itself an interesting bit
of commercial history. Skipper is
simply shipper, and it comes down from
a time when every commander was as

literally, the shipper. There are still

Safe Lion HuntIn G.

A parry of hunters in Idaho killed
three mountain lions recently in COM
paratively safe way. Their dogs drove
the animals under ledge of rock and
kept them there while the hunters dug
down into the cave from above. When
they had made an opening large
enough, a rifle was pushed down, and
the muzzle was promptly gripped in the
jaws of one of the lions and the weapon
discharged The other two lions
grabbed the rife in turn as it was with
