KoAH,s STORY PROVES rRUE
Evidence Of the Deluge Pound at
Base Of Mount Of Ararat Since
Mans Era Began.

NEW York. Feb. 5.-Letters have
lust been received here from the Rev.
Dr.. George Frederick Wright, the
authority on the glacial period and
Biblical geology, telling Of the results
Of his research in Asia for evidences
that the deluge covered the whole
earth.
THE account Of the food in the
Bible is not such as TO lead US to ex-
pect much direct geological evidence
Of it, says the Professor. "a sub
mergeBce Of a year, several thousand
years ago, would leave few signs
which are not o~bliterated by time.
"Catastrophes comparable Of the
food are not strange things in geol-
ogy. The glacial period was connect
ed with a series Of catastrophes. /
have travelled 1900 miles in Asia to
find evidences Of the glacial period
and have found none. There was no
general g~laciation Of eastern and CEN
tral Asia, as there vas Of America
and Europe.
''But ! have found indisputable
evidence OF an extensive submergence
Of the land extending to the base Of
Mount Ararat, and that this sub
Emergency took place subsequent 70
the appearance Of man on the earth.
The Russian biologists have recently
found remains Of man deep down In
the depoSites connected with this sub.
mergence.
"The one point Of certainty is that
since mans appearance there has
been a period Of instability in the
earth's crust in northern and central
Asia, which shows that the Biblical
account Of the food is an entirely
credible story
