Prof. Brunor makes a startling pre-.
diction as to human development. He
sees in the future man a being in
whom strange transformations shall
have taken place; a being In whom
brain IL master, ruling a body much
larger than that of the present man; a
body which has lost its floating ribs,
its yermiform appendix. and its little
toes, and in which many other changes
have taken place. He believes the

be larger and that the future man will
be much taller than his prototype Of
today.-London Globe.

San Francisco, March 3O.-The burn.
ing of crude oil for steam purposes,
especially on steam vessels, supplies
the text for review of Il matter of
material importance by Secretary c.
T. Deane OF the California Petroleum
Miners Association. An idea OF the
practical nature Of the considerations
involved may be inferred from one
of the earlier sentences In DR..
Deanes report, which is as follows
III our leading financial men will but
grasp this subject and appreciate the
superior advantages that the near.
ness Of this vast supply of liquid fuel
gives to the port of San Francisco
they will hasten the time by some
years when San Francisco will become
the second port in the United States"

of fuel oil by Germany and Great
Britain, which they have to import
thousands of miles, while we, with an
unlimited supply at our very door.

Then DIR. Deane mentions some strik.

use Of oil in steamers which are given
in substance for the general local in.
terest the subject possesses:
Striking Examples.
The steamer Murex of the Shell
Transport and Trading Company, Eng.
land, steamed from Singapore to Lon.
don via Cape Town, Africa, a distance
of 1880 miles The total amount of
crude oil consumed on the ship was
5000 barrels of forty-two gallons each
or 1853 tons of oil. The oil was stored
in the forepeak. The vessel averaged
81 knots on l5.1 tons for the main en-.
gines, and nearly two tons for the aux.
Hilary engines, each twenty.four hours.
Had the ship been burning coal tho
corresponding consumption of Welsh
coal would have been 1900 tons, or
with Japanese or other varieties to be
procured in the east, 1900 tons, as
against 1853 tons Of oil. This company
has twenty-seyen steamers, twenty
five of them fitted with oil burners Civ.

Showing the speed with which this

The bigness of our country is en-
phasized every now and then by some
obscure governmental routine. Away
off in the Philippines We are deliver
ing mail in canoelike boats. and, on the
other hand, a contract was let last
week for carrying the mail in Alaska
by dOg-sleds. The successful bidder
was Oscar Fish, and his route lies
between Eagle and Valdez, a distance
OF 414 miles. He makes two trips
month and receives nearly $500 a trip,
or $4,000 year. Only 800 pounds are
carried per trip, and this is usually
made up of letters, few newspapers.
Postoffice Department officials say that
the sum paid to Fish is very reason
able when it is considered that he
makes the trip by dog-sledge, and that
he has the most dangerous route OF
any mail carrier in the world. He has
several times been given up for dead
by residents of Valdez and Eagle, but
so far he has always managed to reach
the end of his journey, although some-
times overdue and occasionally very
much battered up. He has fallen
down precipices, got mixed up in ava
lanches, and has been starved and
frost-bitten, but is still happy in risk
ing his lonely life.-Harper's Weekly.

come fairly abundant again, says q
Quebec dispatch to the Chicago Inter.
Ocean. Some time ago they threatened
to become extinct.
The herd of wood buffaloes in the
Peace River District has trebled in
size under the protection afforded it
by the Northwest mounted police. Five
years ago it was estimated that there
were not more than eighty buffaloes in
the herd; now there are more than 400.
In appearance there is little differ
ence between the woods buffalo and
the plains buffalo. The former is mere
ly a larger, richer-coated animal. II
differs materially. however, in it's hab.

A Moving Mountain.

Most people forget that geology is
not altogether a history of the past
The forces that made the mountains
are still going on. Some mountains
are growing, some are wearing down
Because these processes take long
time 20 accomplish visible results, one
is apt to form the erroneous idea that
they have ceased, and that the face
of the earth is fixed once for all. A
case of geological action so rapid as
to be easily observed is the moving
mountain in Hunterdon County, New
Jersey.
This mountain" is a knob or mound
which is sliding down the side of q
full sized mountain.
1t has obliterated old turnpikes and
roadways, and threatens to slide sud
denly and do great damage. The land
slide already covers twenty-five acres
of one farm, and has destroyed the
boundaries of another
At the point where the mound has
torn away from the mountain is a deep
gulch, in which have been found many
Indian relics. The place is so danger.
Gus from ledges and banks which
threaten to fall that nobody has dared
explore the cleft thoroughly.
This geological movement has been
so rapid that new map of the county
may be necessary. Heavy rains, says
the Detroit Free Press, stir the entire
valley to fear lest the whole hill tum.
bic and destroy everything in it's path.
