THE ICE AGE.
Lecture by Professor Wright a.
Plymouth Church Last Night.

The tenth annual dinner of the Congre-
gational Club was given last night, at Ply
mouth Church. The club dined at 7 o'clock
and held a short business session after
ward. At $50 o'clock the members assem-
bled In the auditorium and liste ned to a
lecture by Prof. CT. Frederick Wright. The
topic was. "The Ice Age in North America
and It's Remnants in Alaska and Green
land" The lecture was Illustrated by
stereopticon views, Showing maps of. the
North American continent and pictures of
life in Alaska and Greenland. Professor
Wright visited Alaska nine years ago and
secured many of the views exhibited last
night. The greater part of last summer he
spent on the icy shores of Greenland. He
was with the Cook explorers, who left
New York July 8. 1894, in the steamer Mi
randa. The party came to grief on the
coast of Labrador. when the steamer collid-
ed with an iceberg and was wrecked. Prof.
Wright. with those on board, escaped with
out injury. The lecturers description of the
floating ice was interesting. He found
many icebergs more than three hundred
feet high and many miles in length. Green
land he found to be almost a solid field of
ice 1,500 miles long and about three hun
dred miles wide. The Professor found the
glacier phenomena most extensive In Alas
ka. He said that in parts OF the country
the ice was covered with a stratum of soil,
In which ~shrubbery and forests thrived to
a remarkable degree. Twenty thousand
years ago. the lecturer said, he glacial
area extended as far south as Indiana.
