The correspondent of the London
Standard at Constantinople wires
to his paper that an address is
in preparation by the Sheik-ul Islam
addressed to the Imams in Constan-
tinople and the provinces, indicating
that an edict is about to issue, declar-
ing a holy war That is to say, the flag
of the Prophet is to be raised and all
Mussulmans everywhere commanded to
gather under it and exterminate the in
fidels. If there is any truth in this
startling statement it is not at all like
ly that the Sultan is a party to 1t. But
he is susceptible to the power of his
religion Indeed, if the priests command
the green flag to be raised the Sultan S
throne would be endangered if he at
tempted to resist the order or dared to
countermand it. He is a greatly firmer
man than is generally supposed and
will not easily yield to the priests. He
plunge Europe, Asia and India into
religious war. The Powers will with
one accord forbid the act referred to,
and backed by them the Sultan may be
able TO stand against the fanatics. Eng
land has much to fear from a holy war.
Her Indian possessions would be en-
dangered by an appeal to the follow

but there are others which can never
be so submitted. Among the latter is
that of the possession of new territory
by England in the western continent.
Under the treaty it seems not TO have
been clear whether England had the
right to purchase, for instance, the
island of Cuba, and in case of dispute,
have it submitted to arbitrators, the
majority of whom would be Europeans.
AS long as there was that doubt left
in the treaty it was not worthy of
ratification. The American people want
no disputes over such questions, the
right to exclude foreign Powers from
the western continent is absolute, and
the people desire to see II thus main
tanned
While it is doubtless true that the
mass of the American people desired to
have an arbitration treaty with Eng
land, we are quite certain that when
they come to understand the defects
in that just rejected they will confirm
the action of the Senate.
The objection stated by our Iowa
contemporary is forceful. There are
other questions, however which should
never be tied by arbitration red tape.
All matters affecting national honor
and integrity and concerning the asser-
tion of our right to interpose to pre-
vent monarchial acquisitions upon the
American continents and nearby island
territory-these cannot be covered by
any advance agreement to submit to
arbitration When the issues arise,
there is time enough to talk of submis-
sion to arbitrators.
On some subjects there might we'll
enough be a General Court of Arbitra-
ton, but even as to these we are con-
vinced that any agreement of that or
der will tend to reduce US in Importance
in the world of diplomacy. We have
no diplomats now, though we need them
sadly. On every occasion, save this,
we have been outwitted in diplomatic
tits with the European school. So it
will be always, unless we can cultivate
a school of diplomacy, and graduate men
equal to the caliber of the diplomats
of Europe.

The Lost LIKE AgassiZ.

Lake Agassiz was very large body
of water in Manitoba, adjoining parts
Of North Dakota and Minnesota. 1t
had a north and south diameter of
some 700 miles-very much larger than
any Of the five great lakes of the pres
ent time. Lake Agassiz was formed in
this way: The great ice sheet which
came down from the north was Sc
ries of great glaciers. For these there
were three principal areas Of distribu-
ton. The first was in Labrador. the
second in the highlands west of the st.
Lawrence river and south of HudSOn'S
bay, the third the mountain ranges of
British Columbia. These three great
foes of ice reached their maximum eX
tent at different times. The Kiwatti
glacier swept down over Manitoba into
the upper Mississippi valley into Min
nesota, and probably down as far as
Iowa; then it commenced to retreat;
and while it was retreating, the great
Laurentian glacier from Labrador was
coming in from the east. There came
a time when the Kiwatti glacier form
ed q northern dam and the IIAurentian
glacier an eastern dam, the two stand
ing nearly at right angles; and in this
great dammed-up space was formed
Lake Agassiz. 1t rose until it could
overflow the barrier to the south, and
thus discharge into the Mississippi
river by means of n river which has
now entirely disappeared, and was
known as the River Warren, after the
late General George X. Warren, who
first discovered It, This lake continued
until the glaciers up there, retreating,
one to the northWard and the other
to the eastward, separated and left a
space between them. Then the drain
age way to Hudson's bay was opened
again. and the lake was very rapidly
drawn in that direction. We can find
perfectly we'll the old beach line and
the old drainage outlets by which this
drainage of Lake Agassiz was cOmplet-
ed. The old terraces and beaches are
there today, and the level bottom of
the lake is clearly shown. The whole
history Of the lake has been made out
with perfect clearness and definite
ness.

BATTLE BETWEEN HORSES.
Entertaining Yarn SoberIy Tod by a
Cavalry Captain,

A cavalry officer related the follow
ing story of n pitched battle of horses
in the far West:
Just at shutdown, and while we were
at supper, a drove of wild horses, num-
bering nearly 100. emerged suddenly
from Thatcher's Pass and deployed on
the level ground of the valley.
They emerged from the pass in sin
gle file, led by II spotted stallion. whose
name reached almost to his knees, and
whose tail touched the ground when he
was at rest
"Of the remainder of the herd, about
thirty were fine animals. Three or four
were recognized as cavalry horses
which had been abandoned on the
march, and twice that number had col
lar marks to prove that they had stam-
peded from some immigrant train.
when clear of the pass. they formed
in line and marched upon us within a
quarter of mile We had seventy-five
horses at the lariat pens. and for half
an hour we had all we could do to pre-
vent a stampede. Every animal seem
ed enraged at the sight of the free
herd, and the captains Kentucky stall
lion acted as if possessed by fiend.
AT last we drove the free herd down
the valley, but our horses continued
very restless all night. At dawn the
wild horses again appeared a mile be-
low us, and, on the instant, every ami
NAL in camp stampeded. They broke
through the free herd in a solid wedge.
Then the two herds turned, facing each
other, at a distance of about three
quarters of mile.
Then we witnessed something which
only a cavalryman will credit. Our
horses fell into double line and dressed
TO the right as perfectly as If trooper
had occupied each saddle, and, while
we looked, the lines suddenly moved
forward on charge. When they swept
past us the alignment was absolutely

that an alloy of two-thirds aluminium
and one-third zinc possesses some re-
markable and valuable qualities. 1t Is
white, and takes a fine finish, and Is
equal In strength to good cast iron, but
superior to 1t in elasticity. On the 9th
err hand it melts at 800 or 900 degrees
Fahrenheit, and can be liquetied in a
ladle over an open fire. In the liquid
form it fills mold running into all the
small parts, much better than brass,
but is more brittle than brass. With it
small castings can be made without the
use of foundry furnace.

The First Americans.

That account of the origin of the
name America which says that it was
derived from Amerigo Vespucci, Flor
entine merchant, who visited the newly
discovered continent several years af-
ter Columbus first voyage has been
disputed on the ground that, on his
fourth voyage, Columbus found Cen
trail American tribe of natives bearing
the name of 'Ameriques,' and that his
associates designated the country by
the name of these Indians. On the
other hand the existence of the Amer
iques has been doubted. Recently,
however. the descendants of the an
cient Ameriques have been found
dwelling in Honduras, and NJ. A. Pin
art, French explorer, has studied
their language and investigated their
relations to other native tribes. But, of
course, the discovery of the existence
of the Ameriques does not prove that
the name of America was derived from
them.
