The cutters of the great glove houses

THEY NOW KNOW BETTER.
"eoioEissH Have of Late Discarded
the Old Notion About GIa-
ciRl Movements.

Anew years 1go geologists confident.
~ asserted that at one period of the
worlds history great ice cap came
moving down from the polar region,
and swept over North America as far
south is latitude 3S, carrying with il
great bowlders-which lie about on
slopes and hilltops to this DAY to
prove it-and scratching the record OF
its movement upon cliffs and lodges.
Then this ice cap kindly melted and
disappeared. This was taught in the
schools. and to doubt it was heresy;
for science, when it takes up with a
theory. is dogmatic, and all geologists
said: Behold, how wonderful is our
knowledge; what secrets we can
wrest from the past!" After awhile
science rather gave up the polar ice
cap theory and IaId down new dog.
ma-that of a single continental ice
sheet for North America
The recent Investigations of officers
of the Canadian geological survey
prove that the scientists evolved their
glacial theory out of vivid magina.
tion. 1t has been found that in
northern Alaska there is no evidence
that that part of the country was
ever covered by a glacer-in fact,
conclusive evidence exists that it was
not. At the mouth of the Mckenzie
river is plenty of evidence on glacial
action, and also that the glacier
which left its records came from the
south. On the western snores of Hud-
son bay are marks of a glacier which
came from the west, and on the east.
ern shores of one which came from
the east. East of the Canadian Rock
les is a long belt which shows no evil
dence of ever having been exposed to
glacial action.
These and similar discoveries have
put the geologists "all at sea-" and
they now have evolved a new theory
regarding the glacial period. 1t is
that one big glacier did not at one
time cover all the North American
continent, but that several glaciers,
moving at different times from diff
ferent centers of distribution, made
their way in different directions and
left the glacial records which are now
found. They have cen given names
to these glaciers, such as the Cor
dilleran glacier" the "Labradorian
glacier" and the "Keewatin glacier"
Prof Lawson, of the University of Cal
ifornia, in writing on the subject in
the international Monthly, says that
as yet it cannot be said that the sue
cession of these great glaciers in time
has been established well enough to
warrant an unqualified acceptance,
but he seems to have little hesitation
in accepting the theory of different
glaciers moving from different points.

THREE SOLDIERS
 HORRIBLE DEATH
Were Captured by Insurgents and Tortured in Public
 Plaza at Balinag.

Boston, February 15.-A special to the Globe from Iloilo says:
 "Three Massachusetts soldiers of the Twenty-sixth regiment, United States vol unteers. have been tortured to death by insurgents. The men were Dennis Hayes. William Dugan and Michael Tracey, pri- yates of Company F. under Captain Will jam M. Tuthery. They remained behind the column at Balinag last November to get a tuba and refused to accompany the cor poral sent by Captain Tutherly to bring them along. They were captured by the insurgents hanging on the rear of the col- umn and were cruelty tortued and murder ed by the rebels in the public plaza at Bal mag, the action being countenanced by the Spanish priest The padre has since left his parish for the mountains.
 ''When the men remained behind they had with them their full equipment of arms and ammunition which was captured"

BECKHAM'S ORDERS
 WE'RE RECOGNIZED
Convict Released on Democratic
 Pardon Papers
MORE SUITS ARE FILED
Prospects for Getting the Legislature Together Are Growing Brighter Agreement Hangs on Who Will
 Preside Over the Senate

Frankfort, Ky. February 15.-The clash between the democratic and republi- can branches of the state government was emphasized tonight by the prison officials releasing John Seals, a Louisville convict, on pardon issued by Governor Beckham. Deputy Warden Punch was acting warden tonight, and when the pardon papers were presented to him he ordered Seals released and the latter left the city tonight. Doug las Hayes, a Knott county convict, re- gently pardoned by Governor Taylor, is still in confinement, the prison officials re- fusing to recognize Taylor as governor.
 The prospects for the legislature getting together and holding regular sessions at the state capitol are conceded to be brighter tonight than since Governor Taylor ad- jcurned that body to meet at London, Ky, followed by the removal of the democratic branch to Louisville
 Speaker Trimbe told prominent demo- crat today that he Thought both branches would meet together here Monday Efforts are being made to reach an agreement as to who shall preside in the senate In order to avoid a clash between Lieutenant Gov ernor Marshall and Senator Carter, presi- dent pro tenn. of the senate. If this is set tied the chief barrier to the democratic and republican branches meeting together will have been removed. It is believed that this will be harmonized Monday

HARRISON SWINDLED
Ex-President and His Wife Robbed in
 Paris

Indianapolis, Ind, February 15.-It is be ing related here tonight that both ex-Presi- dent Harrison and his wife were system atically robbed and otherwise swindled dur ing their visit to Paris last summer, when the general was engaged in the Venezue- Ian claims affair. The ex-president was asked about the matter tonight and he confirmed the story, although he said he did not know that it was abroad, and did not authorize it. He now thinks that a young Frenchman who acted as his valet was the swindler; or, if not that, he knew all about the larcenies.
 The valet seems to have been quite an intelligent, smooth kind of a rascal, from all accounts. Aside from sums of money that the ex-president missed, tine boldest and most accomplished operation consisted in a series of forgeries perpetrated on Mrs. Harrison During the summer she looked for some drafts due on some private in vestments of her own. They never came. Quite recently the drafts came to her with her name fairly well endorsed on them. The amounts of the various drafts and the name of the forger could not be learned.
 General Harrison would give no details beyond saying that the story was substan- tially correct.

HEALTH OFFICIALS ROUGH ON RATS Plague Situation Has Improved Bounty Offered for Rats,

Robertson fingered "A hours and then succumed; Hartman is said to be improving under the Pasteur treatment Hartman was employed in a stable next to the Pathon saloon, a place from where three cases were taken. The saloon and adjoining buildings were destroyed by fire on the 7th inst.
 No new cases have developed during the past four days. The house to house inspec- tion is being kept up. The health officials are feeling easier and have granted permis- sion for churches, schools and places of amusement to reopen. A bounty of % cents for live rats and 15 cents for dead ones has been offered. The board of health will also set day apart for the wholesale slaughter of rats; every householder will be supplied with a package of poison for use in their respective premises. It is expected that this latter plan will prove to be effective.

The vessels are of good construction, but are not suitable for reg ular service.
 They are, however, well adapted fer use as army transports.
 J. Bellinger has gone to Philadelphia to le3k at the Resolute with the object of purchasing her, while similar inquiry is making into the capabilities of the Badger at Mare Island. These vessels, if acquired will be put in the regular semi-monthly line, which the war department is about to establish between this country and the Philippines.
