BRIDGING BEHRING SEA.
Results Of the Deposit Of Immense
Quantities of Debris by the
Mighty Yukon River i!

Prof. W. ]. MCGEE, Of Washington,
declares that two slow but interesting
changes are taking place in Behring
sea. The immense quantity Of debris
that is borne down the Yukon from its
sources and sides is being deposited in
the sea beyond the mouth of that
mighty stream, and its weight causes
the bed OF the sea to subside. A cor
responding rise in the earth's crust is
produced along the chain of the Aleu-
tian islands. Now, not only are the
islands themselves increasing in size
in consequence Of being lifted up out
OF the water, but new islands are being
formed in the gaps between the others.
In some instances the new islands are
the result Of the rise, and in others
they are the result Of volcanic action,
Most Of the Aleutians are of volcanic
origin, and they mark the position Of
o fold in the earth's crust that Is pre-
disposed to eruption. In time, Prof.
MCGEE says, there is likely to be nat
ural bridge from America to Asia along
this route, but he admits that nobody
now living is going to see 1t.

The suns size.

In view OF this enormous distance i,
will be easily surmised that the little
disc seen with the smoked glass is OF
colossal dimensions. In bald figures
Its diameter is s66,5O0 miles, but this is
meaningless without some helpful SIM
lie. 1t is easier to comprehend the
moons distance from the earth, say
100000 miles; let us suppose our planet
placed at the very center Of the sun
(frst FOLLOWED out" for the express
purpose), and the moon revolving about
1t In its everyday orbit-not only un-
trammeled by the 'shell" of the sun,
but actually leaving room enough for
the revolution Of another moon in an
orbit more than 100000 miles further
away, without fracturing the shell! In
other. words, the sun is 100000 times
ns large as our planet!

Scatter the Flowers.

| If it is possible for the departed ones
to see the acts of kindness from their
eternal homes in the skies, and to
know the love of those who linger be-

resting place on earth of their loved
ones, and If it is possible for angelic
spirits to feel extra pleasure, how they
must rejoice when they see the acts of
love In scattering flowers by fair hands
and innocent children, on their graves.
1t is beautiful sight, well calculated
to touch the finest chord of the human
heart, and give the donors taste of
that beautiful land beyond.
The practice of decorating the graves
of the hero dead, and of loved ones
who sleep in the silent city Of the dead,
is most beautiful and appropriate
practice, refining in its character and a
tribute to the memory of friends who
gave their life for their country or fell
by disease. We all love to linger near
the graves of our friends and to deck
with flowers the mounds that contain
the dust of our dear ones, and we often.

We publish an advertisement of
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure in our columns
this issue, and wish to say to our read
ers that we believe this preparation is
worthy of q trial by any person suffer
ing from that agonizing disease. We
honestly believe it will do for you all
the manufacturers claim for 1t.
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure is prepared by
the well-kuown and reliable firm of E
G Dewitt & Co., Chicago, and from
our long experience In business
sense, with that firm as advertisers, We
feel safe in saying, that they would
not place on the market preparation
for the cure of dyspepsia unless they
had a remedy of the highest merit and
conscientiously believed it would cure
that almost universal complaint.
We further add that if this prepara-
tion is equal to the other we'll known
remedies made by them, viz: DeWitt's
Little Early Risers, DeWitt's Witch
Hazel Salve, and One Minute Cough
Cure, twill speedily win its way into
public favor.
We cheerfully and heartily give our
public endorsement to this concern,
and the reliability of the goods they
manufacture, which latter has been
largely the means their success; and in
writing this luntary endorsement on
our part, We feel that we are simply
performing duty that we owe our
readers.

A Nerve DESTROYER.

A team from Logan, the first town
east OF here, and nine young men of
this city played game of base ball at
the fair grounds in this city yesterday
afternoon, but person, possessed of
an uninitiated optic would not have
recognized it as an exhibit on of the
most scientific and exciting game of
the worlds sports. After the first half
of the second inning the game was as
uninteresting to the spect ors as club
room Is to man who has signed the
pledge.
In the second inning the Loganites
succeeded in getting two men across
the rubber, by a "tiuke," but from this
inning until the close of the ninth
their efforts in the line of score getting
were fruitless On the other hand the
home aggregatian cudgeled the sphere
at pleasure and chased themselves
around The diamond with the alacrity
OF pugilist's tongue. and when the
particles of matter had settled, after
the ninth inning the score stood Is to
2 in favor of the locals.

HIS NORTHERN BROTHER.

HIS NORTHERN BROTHER.
Just make it two, old fellow,
l want to stand once more
Beneath the old flag With you 81
tisi1 the days of yore. y
Our fathers stood together
And fought on land and sea
The battles fierce that made US
A Nation of the free,
1 WHIPPED you down at Vicksburg,
You licked me at Bull Run,
On many Il field we struggled,
When neither victory won.
You wore the Gray of Southland;
l wore the Northern Blue;
Like men we did our duty
While the screaming bullets flew.
-Four years we fought like devils,
But when the war was done
Your hand met mine in friendly clasp
Our two hearts beat as one,
And now that danger threatens,
No North, no South, we know:
Once more we stand together
To fight the common foe.
My head. like yours, is frosty
Old age is creeping on;
Life's sun is lower sinking,
My day will soon be gone.
But if our country's honor
Needs once again her son,
I'm ready, too, old fellow
So get another gun.
