Niagara Is Seven Thousand Years Old.

The leading geol ogists Of the United
States and Europe have long been engaged
in attempt to figure the retrocesaion Of Nj
agara falls down to point whe,. the de-
auctions may be used as basis fcrestimat-
ing the exact age of the cataract. The
opinions on the subject that have been ad-
vanced by the various ''profs., ""M. B. s."
IN. BIS" and other learned gentlemen
with sections of the alphabet either follow
ing or preceding their names are in some
instances really ridiculous Thus we find
that Lyell estimates the time that has
elapsed while the falls have been wearing
back from Queenstown to their present site
at not less than IS, GOO years, while Desor,
using the same basis Of calculations, places
it 3,50o,O0O years.
Nor is this all. The United States geolo-
gist, G. X. Gilbert, using Professor Halls
1912 trigonometrical survey as his guide.
cannot make out that more than 1000 years
have elapsed since the falls first sprang into
existence at TIE close of the "iceage." Here
is something really interesting in the share
of geographical figures: Gilbert says 7,GGo

Santa Fe daily New Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1885-1897, 1894-01-20
AT THE GATEWAY OF THE NATIONAL PARK

Santa re, the city of the Holy Faith of
st. Francis, is situated on the site of an
ancient Indian Pueblo called O-ga -p-ho-ge.
1t is probably the Oldest civilized COM
lnunity in the United States and the most
ancient of American capitals. The Spanish
town was founded in 1905. Authorities
disagree as to whether this city or San Au
gustin, Fla, were first founded. Santa
Fe was first visited by American traders
in 1904, and from that time dated o
wonderful era of prosperity. The thrill
ing incidents of the old Santa Fe trail,
starting from Westport, Mo-, gave it
world wide fame.
THE WORLDS ONLY sANlTAG1UN.
Prof. Mark Harrington, chief of the U.
s. weather bureau, says: "Santa Fe is in
the driest habitable part of the United
States. This region is extensive, and
changes in form from season to season,
but Santa Fe is always in it.'
1t is situated in charming nook of the
Santa Fe range, and its climate is domi-
mated by the influence of mountain peaks
that tower nearly $4,000 feet high. To
gether with this it lies at an altitude of
7,015 feet, and latitude, about the Both
degree north, that gives it a peculiar adj
vantage as a sanitarium. The elevation
tempers the summer heats, which natural
ly should be about that of Memphis,
Tenn. or Bakersfield, Cal, and it's south
ern situation reduces the rigors of winter.
AS an illustration, during the winter of
1892, the daily public concerts in the
plaza were only stopped three times by
weather, and last winter the omissions did
not exceed half dozen.
The altitude compels the lungs to work,
and no one in Santa Fe can be accused of
being "too lazy to BREATHE" as great
physician expressed it. The rare, ozon-
ated air permeates every cell of the lungs,
and thus prevents hemorrhage. Drs.
Symington and Harroun, who have prac-
ticed in Santa Fe for over twenty years,
report that they have only found two
gases among the native people of con-
sumption.
NORMAL TEMPERATURE.
The U. 8. weather observation Office
aas been stationed here for twenty years,
md the following statistical data tells
better than words how even and mild is
she climate of Santa Fe. Taking the
summer heat and the winter cold the fol-
lowing tables show most equable and
delightful emperature:

There is no other locality, even the
boosted climate of southern France. that
can show such stable and equabia
range of heat and cold. The health seek
err need fear no sudden changes. little
attention to clothing and he can bid colds
and infammations defiance. In cases of
death from tubercular disease the New
Mexico rate is only in 1000.
This is the lowest known record, and it
must be remembered that the local con-
tingent Of consumptives is daily aug
,nsnted by the immigration of those who
sock respite from that dreaded scourge.
The record of deaths at Santa Fe is
much lower than the territorial average.
In New England the consumptive death
rate is e5 out of every 1000 of tho COM
munity; in Minnesota is is II, and
throughout the southern states six per
1000. This city enjoys the spring eli
mate of northern Illinois and Indiana;
the summer climate of Wisconsin, Michi-
gan and Minnesota, and the winter
tenn nerature of southern Illinois, Indiana
aud Tennessee. This, however, is only ss
shown by the Thermometer. The dry
