IN Thursdays Journal with reference TO
fine views of S. A. Stephan, general man
ager of the Cincinnati geological gardens,
who tells of the splendid success of his
city in this line He says Minneapolis
should follow suit, but knows of no good

mark which contains but twenty-five
acres which is manifestly too small FOR
the purpose, and cannot well be enlarged
Now, in the first place Minneapolis
should not be content to remain behind
Cincinnati, Buffalo or any other city OF
its class in anything which makes for
education general attractiveness or
METROPOLITAN air. And secondly. this city
is so wonderfully favored in point OF 10
t cation and surroundings that we certain
Nv need not be behind in any matters per-
raining to our attractiveness as city IN
which to live.
AS to the geological garden, who: could
Imagine a better location than Glenwood
mark? Here we have within the city,
limits. and just the right distance from
/ the business center. a large and one OF
the most beautiful natural parks to be
found III the entire west, and yet one
which we have as yet put to no practical
use It contains fifty-Seven acres and
can be made. larger at slight expense II
desired. It consists Of high, rolling,
! wooded lands just such as a geological
garden requires. A beautiful little lake
nestles among the hills near it's western
edge and it can be easily drained; fine
stream of water is close at hand which
! might be turned into the park and used
for watering the aninals; natural springs
are numerous In the vicinity and flowing
wells of the finest water can be obtained
by boring to shallow depths and at slight
expense. 1t is already practically tapped

line will doubtless soon pass it's southern

It almost seems tho nature had in
tended it for just this purpose, and time
may yet prove that the fates were after
all not so unkind when our esteemed park
board was allowed to make the colossal
blunder Gas some have. called it) Of pur~
chasing this almost forgotten and little
appreciated tract.
Why not begin preparat tons at once Tor
such a geological garden at GlenWood
park as shall within the next ten years
be one Of the leading and best known, at

Comment on The Journals Editorial on
the Earthquake.
TO the Editor of The Journal.
I was extremely pleased to read your
very able editorial of last nights J 0 u r.
n a | upon the recent calamity which has
befallen the beautiful city of the golden
gate. Extremely pleased with the liberal
interpretation of the manifesto ions Of
the. memorable laws of nature and the plea
for sympathy for those who have suffered,
/ whether they be Of the Just unjust
class. Too frequently in the wake of such
catastrophes, wordy writer's are apt to
ascribe such calamities to the sudden
vengeful anger of an angry deity, while
others of the opposite extreme offer ex-
plantations of other kinds, equally with
out foundation or reason. Your comm on
sense, I am pleased and happy to observe,
takes a rational view Of the situation as
to those who have suffered loss of life,
limb or property. and is, at least, an in
dex finger pointing to measures and the
cries which, if needed in the RECONSTRUCT
ton of the stricken city, will tend to
minimize the horror incident upon any
future earthquakes. Again I express to
you my appreciation for the timely, ex-
celent article on the subject. g.

NO QUAkES HEREABOUTS
"a Reassurlng Argument Written by H. 3.

no the Editor of The Journal
Since the recent dire calamity has fall
en- upon San Francisco and other cities
of the Pacific coast much uneasness is
felt that many other localities may. be
liable to such events. A brief reslffne of
the conditions under which such earth
shocks have, in the past, occurred to-
gether with their ,probable, or possible
causes, may not be inopportune at this
time.
If we are to accept the theory of La
Place and others regarding the origin 3of
our solar system, we have key that
will unlock many Of the secrets of astro-
nomicaA and geological history both past
and present. If our solar system began
S its existence in a condition Of nebulosity
whether or not in state of high mean
descence, it certainly at some period of
its existence passed into and thru that
stage, and is now a cooling body The
facts that the largest planet in our sys-
tenn (Jupiter) has the highest axial. We
locity, and Mars, the smallest, and our
NInoon have none, all tend to confirm the.
hypothesis that our earth, which occupies
an intermediate position, as to location
and state of development, has. had it's
form, that of an oblate spherod with an
i equatorial diameter twenty-six miles
S greater than its polar diameter) which.
if caused by a former rapid ax1al speed.
must necessarily tend toward. y I'm ore
d perfect sphere as the causes which pro4
duced the spleroidal form become less
active. In which case there must of ne
cessity be a great and constant strain on
the outer crust of the earth in its effort
to conform to these inevitable conditions.
While. the rocks constituting the outer
crust were more plant such changes may
have taken place with less: jar on dis
turbance but as the crust be comes more
S solid. the rocks more hardened, the. strain
which would be constant, might not make
itself felt only at long intervals; then
only to give way thru the lines of least
resistance, but with greatly increased
81 shock. From these conditions it seems
reasonable that earthquakes may be less
frequent but more disastrous in the
iutures
That there have been recent earthquake
shocks-speaking in geologic terms of
time-seems quite evident on the Pacific
coast but it seems equally true that
there has been no such activity on the
great plains or in the Mississippi valley.

FLORENCE ROBERTS
THIS EASTERN DRAMATIC FAv-
4 oRiTE AND COMPANY SHOW 4,
HERE IN "sTRENGTH OF (
THE WEEK.

The advance representatives of the
John Cort attractions have been in
the city several days completing ar
rangements for the appearance of
Mr.. Cort's most excellent Florence
Roberts company. The talented lady
star is to produce at the Atheneum,
Nov. IL, with the original cast and
stage equipment the piece that she
used on the occasion of her first ap-
pearance as star in the city of New
York. 1T was one of the biggest kind
of hits in the exclusive circles of up
per Broadway and the fact that. Miss
Roberts who is western actress
wishes to give her many friends on
the coast chance to see the new
offering accounts for her appearance
in this city. She will when she comes
locally have just completed highly
successful run at the Broad Street
theatre in Philadelphia and she, it is
said, if that is possible, scored an even
greater triumph in the Quaker city
than she did in New York. While
Miss Roberts has not appeared here
she is we'll known and many were dis
appointed on a former occasion when
the failure of train to arrive on time
prevented her from appearing as ad-
vertised. She with her excellent COM
pany will come from the east this
time on an early train assuring that
there will be no hitch in the program.
From the local management it is
learned that there will be no advance
in prices and to assure the out of the
city patrons an equal opportunity the
sale will be placed on several days in
advance of the regular time and those
| who wish to make reservation by mail
can be assured of good seats.
Miss Roberts new piece is styled
the Strength of The Weak" and is
said to be one of the best problem
plays Of the period.

FOR RECLAMATION
NORTH DAKoTA's BIG SHARE OF
THE FUND.

Nearly Five Millions Added to the Re-
clamation Fund This Year, for
Which North Dakota's Land Sales
! Are Largely Responsible.
/" The general landoffice at Washing
ton has completed a compilation of
returns for the fiscal year from local
land Offices throughout the country
showing receipts from sales of public
lands, and computation of the proper
ton which is to go into the reclama-
ton fund. The statement shows that
$4.882,0S4 was added to. the reclama-
ton fund last year, and that it's total
on June 80 last was $32,95S, 192.12.
North Dakota's share of this total is
$5,374,395, of which $933,S03 was con-
tributed last year. Montana's receipts
last year were $500,746; the total for
the state. being $2,647,433.
The reclamation act provides that a
major. portion of the money obtained
in each state; shall be expended in that
state, and the secretary of the interior
has construed this to mean that 81
per cent shall be allotted. The major
portion" of proceeds of sales of land
in North Dakota since the act was
passed is s2,740,941, and in Montana it
lis $1,35O,1 91.
South Dakota contributed $262, 1908
to the fund last year, the total for the
state being $1,2S5, 4s0.
