An Omen soutb Pole.

It is evident that some clima tic con ditions have existed in the neighbor- hood of the Antartic pole for the last few years which have caused masses of ice to appear in frequented waters by the side of which our usual northern
 icebergs are as molehills to mountains.
 These, says the United Service, have been 50 reported by masters of vessels making passages in the extreme south
 that there can be no mistake about it, even allowing for imagination and ex- aggeration. No doubt many ship re- ported missing" found her fate upon or among these ice masses. Such be- ing the case, it stands to reason that the present would be a favorable time for exploration towards the south pole, and efforts have been made for some time to have the English government undertake such mission, and endeayor to discover whether great antarctic continent, with it's lofty volcanic noun tain ranges, does really exist, and, in- eidentally, what new hunting-grounds for seals and cetaceans are to be found.

corea's literary Center.

Ping-Yang, in northern Corea, the place where the great'battle of Sep tember 15 was fought, was the first literary center' in the peninsrlar Kingdom. Its chief author was an ancestor of Confucius named Kishi who, gathering up his writing ma terials and leaving China in 1122 B. C., emigrated eastward into Corean re- gions. His name is greatly venerated, and many tablets still exist in his honor in the northern parts of Corea.

electricity ia making rapid progress,
Petroleum seems to be most success
full as motive power The vehi-
Giles resemble ordinary carriages, the
moving machinery net being very
prominent. A powerful little steam
engine has been invented which can
be attached to any carriage or wag-
on, running it.at speed of sixteen
miles an hour,
The petroleum carriages are able
to GO for three hours, or twenty-five
Or thirty miles, without recharging.
The engines can then be recharged
from a reservoir attached TO the car
rage, which holds enough oil
for twenty-four hours run. The
cost is about 30 cents for three hours.
In June there was race with yelii-
cles of this character from Paris TO
Bordeaux and return a distance of
726 miles. Four-s seated carriages
competed for the first prize of 49,
600 francs, and prizes were also Of
fered for other horseless vehicles,

route there were steep hills and bad
stretches of road, making the test a
a severe one. The first carriage
reached Bordeaux in twenty-five
hours and twenty-eight minutes, its
average speed being fifteen mites an
hour. This carriage made the best
time, but did not win the prize as it
was two-seated vehicle, while the

Durrant's Trial.

SAN Francisco, October 4.-Judge
Murphy to-day decided that he had
no power to punish Miss Carrie Gun
bingham, the newspaper reporter, for
contempt of court. During the trial
OF the Durrant case last week Miss
cunningham was called to the stand
by the defense, and asked to tell
where she obtained certain informa-
ton relative to Mrs. Leaks testimony.
When Miss Cunningham first re-
fused to answer the question Judge
Murphy announced that he would send
her to prison for contempt of court,
but to-day decided that he had not the
power. He said the defense had no
right to ask the question as it could
not impeach Mrs. Leaks testimony.
The Court also reversed the ruling
made last week by which the defense
was deprived of the opportunity of
asking DR.. Cheney if he was not pos
tive III his own mind that Durrant
attended the lecture of Cooper Medi-
cal College on April 3D.. The Court
then said that while he believed the
question was Objectionable, as it call
ed for the opinion of the witness, he
would permit DR.. Cheney to answer
it as he desired TO err on the side of
the defense if he erred mt all. DR.
Cheney will be recalled to the stand
to-day.
The defense this morning continued
the calling of witnesses to show the
previous COED reputation of Durrant.
When DR.. Cheney took the stand
the defense declined to ask the ques-
ton formerly ruled out by the Court.
An effort was made to impeach the
testimony of Mrs. Crossctt by calling
to the stand Leonard Everett, who
told how long it took hm to ride on
the street car from Sacramento and
Walnut streets to Twenty
and Valencia streets. The purpose of
the testimony was to show that Mrs.
Crosett could not have made the trip
between the two points'on the after
noon of April 3rd, when she swore
She saw Durrant and Blanche Lamont
in the time given by witness Everett.
The testimony was corroborated by
Marion Curtis.
