BIRTH OF AN ICEBERG.
The Dramatic Experience Of Two
Antarctic Explorers.

Mr.. G. Z. Borcherevink, commander
Of the antarctic expedition Of 1893,
nearly lost his life by an accident OF q
nature so peculiar that il is probable
no other man could duplicate the ex-
pcricnce. At the foot of Mount Terror
in February, 1900, he landed from his
ship with Captain Jensen and three
other men. Then, wishing to take a
picture Of the shore, he sent his boat
back to the vessel to get camera, and
he and Captain Jensen were left alone
on the rough beach. Before the boat
returned strange and awful thing
happened. Mr.. Borchgrevink told the
story in the Outlook
A roar and a rush, with tremendous
explosions, shook the beach. The
thought came to US that the perpendic.
ular rocks above us were falling. Then
we realized what was taking place.
The mighty glacier Immediately to the
west Of us was giving birth to an ice
berg.
Millions Of tons Of ice plunged into
the ocean. We could see nothing be-
yond an immense cloud OF rolling
snow. The water rose from the plunge
Of this antarctic monarch. l sang out
to Jensen, Now we shall have to face
the wave!'
We rushed to the highest point Of our
limited beach, four feet above the sea.
We saw advancing on us dark green
ridge with a white crest. called to
Jensen to struggle for dear life. We
clutched the uneven rocks, with our
backs toward the advancing water. AL
though 1t could not have taken more
than seven minutes the time seemed
long before the water closed over our
heads.
Floating upward, scrambling upon
the rocks, tore the nails from my
flesh in my endeavor to keep from be-
ing dragged out. After the second
wave we again felt the rocks under
our feet.
At the place where Jensen and first
stood the rock was wet twenty feet
above our heads. 1t was somewhat
lower when it struck US. Where the
wave had struck with full force the
face Of the rock had been altered. and
rocks were still falling when the three
men In the boat found US, bleeding and
torn.
Two facts had saved US. To our right
q small peninsula Of ice protruded
some five feet from the rock, and the
rock itself bent toward the west. From
the moment it struck the curve Of the
mountain rock to the west OF us the
wave took a course more easterly than
where Jensen and l stood.

HIS WiFE'S TRIUMPH.
A MementO That Was Inspiring to

1t has been the fate of many men Of

Jeffries and J. X. Green. Each Of these,

the actual labor of writing. 1.-THE Life

In the way of the invalid, who did

to work at once learning to write with
her left hand.
One Of her first practice pages, which
she was about to destroy with the rest,
her husband took quietly and put in
his pocket. Years afterward, when Ill

HORSEHAlR SNAKES,
Peculiar Habits Of These Threadlike
Little Serpents.

Peculiar Habits Of These Threadlike
Little serpents.
The "horsehair snakes" are small,
flesh colored mites which live princi-
pally in stagnant water. After going
through various transformations they
come to the surface Of the water In the
shape Of very slender. purplish looking
threads. When they reach this last
stage, they leave the water and work
their way up the stalks and leaves of
aquatic plants. When opportunity at
fords, they attach themselves to the
feet, legs, wings and other parts of
larger insects, often. as one authority
states, creeping under the wing case
OF beetles. In the case of the cricket,
katydid, grasshopper and other insects
Of that ilk, whose legs are hollow. the
tiny horsehair takes the advantage and
creeps up the hollows into the very
vitals.
This accounts for the fat and clumsy
condition of some individuals of the
above named species, single specimens
OF the cricket having been caught with

a full fledged miniature serpent. In this
mature state he is the delight Of the
curiosity seeker and mine of study to
those who delight to delve In natures
bypaths. Those which have been for
tunate enough not to have been carried
very far from water by the insects
which they encountered during life
make their way back to the ponds to!
lay their eggs. They then wrap them
selves around the eggs, which soon
hatch into the little flesh colored mites
mentioned In the opening. About this
time the parent SNAKE" dies to make
room for its progeny.
