in her hands and struck Linsley re-
peatedly on the face and over the head

..Somebody take her away Mr.. James,
take her away"
Linsley grasped his fair assailant by
the arms, and Mr.. James ordered the
curtain rung down The woman was

ICEBERG PHENOMENA.
Their Presence In Low Latitudes Is Easils
Accounted For.

Their Presence In Low Latftudes Is Easily
Accounted For.
The occurrence Of ice in the compare
lively low ATTITUDES of Cape Horn and
the Falkland islands is easily explained,
says The Pail Mall Gazette The ice has
originally formed part of the great bar
rier which, with very few breaks, sur
rounds the vast antarctic continent, ris-
ing to an average height of from 100
feet to 200 feet above and sinking from
LOO feet TO ! 400 feet below the level
OF the sea and having, moreover, a
thickness of something like 1900 feet
or 900 feet. 1t is solid perpendicular
wall of ice formed by the descent over
the lowlands into the sea of the ice
and snow which form on the mountains
inland, and when the forefronts are
pushed into depths of about 500 or 400
fathoms large stretches are broken off
and float away northweard with the
current. When they start on their aim
less career, they may be miles in extent,
and though, as IL rule, they break up by
collision and erosion it is not at all I'M
usual to encounter an island miles long
in the neighborhood of the extreme ice
limit.
For instance. the Coldinghame in this
region passed about 200 bergs, one of
which was ten miles long. The Guilty
Sark, again, in latitude 80 south, lon
gitude AZ west, found by cross bearings
and distance run that the east side of
one berg which she encountered was 10
miles long. At first the masses are
straight, fiat topped and horizontally
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES unlike those met
with in the north. By the action Of the
waves they are cut at the water's edge
into coves and caverns of heavenly
blue color. Then, as they collide or get
melted away at the base by the action
of the water, they turn over and show
to the wandering mariner those fantas-
ic shapes which simply beggar all de-
scription. Naturally as they travel
farther north they become smaller and
still more strangely shaped and ulti-
mately melt away.

good things have little ''ritfle' some
times, and a beligerent near the door
tried to mar the pleasure, but was
quickly disposed Of. At the midnight
intermission we were delighted with q
beautiful song by one of the Revenue
bellies. and one of the half-century
youngsters of the Creek volunteered d
solo, but twas so low very few Of the
company heard it. We think he at
tempted ''The Bridge" as it ran thus:
LAS stood on the bridge at midnight,
AS full as son of gun;

He was too much affected to proceed,
thinking of the peculiar change in the
solar system, and was still more affect
ed by the thoughts of George being
dead. A tender-hearted young lady
asking, George who and when?" he
answered, George Washington and
handkerchiefs were freely used. The
soloist stepped to the door 10 soothe
