1t is because they have become accustomed

The expedition of Prince Luigi of

once for all the altitude of Mount ST.
Elias at 1920 feet. The figures are
subject only to such slight corrections
as may change the total 80 or 40 feet
either way. The expedition has also
answered definitely and in the negative
the question so long asked by scientists
as TO whether or not St. Elias was ar
one time great volcano. There is not
the slightest indication of volcanic ac-
ton anywhere. A new glacier was dis
covered by the explorers from the
