Explodes an Arctic Myth

It was proved by Peary In his long jour
ney westward along the coast OF Greenland
last spring that the Paleocrystic sea does
not exist. 1t was thirty years ago that the
world first heard of it. When Mares sailed
up through the Smith sound channels to the
Arctic ocean he saw instead of the open sea
that Kane had reported an ocean blanketed
with foe ice deeply covered with snow.
Rising here and there above the general
level were huge masses of ice, not at all
like the Greenland icebergs with sharp
points and irregular domes, but presenting
vertical walls and fat upper surfaces like
the enormous cubic blocks of ice that are
seen in Antarctic waters.
Mares therefore changed the name of this
part Of the Arctic ocean from the open sea
to the Paleocrystic sea, or in other words,
the sea of ancient ice.
Greedy found later that while the pack
ice rarely exceeds seven or eight feet in
thickness many Of these errauc blocks were
from ninety to 900 feet thick.
Greedy also discovered that these masses
were not composed of frozen sea water but
that they originated on the land. The theory
was adduced that they were formed on com
paratively level plains and were pushed
forward into the sea and set adrift as ice
RATS. For many years there was much
speculation as to their place Of origin and
their distribution over this part OF the
Arctic ocean,
Peary has now shown that the place Of
origin of these prodlgous, 1at-topped
masses of ice is not far to seek. As he
went westward on his journey to complete
the survey Of the Grant Land coast he dis
covered that to the west of Cape Hecla all
the shores are covered with a continuous
glacial mass having a width of from one
to fifteen miles.
This extensive ice formation has no enor-
nous elevation, but every headland is
buried under It and, all the bays are filled
with IT, and from its outer edge in summer
huge fields of the ice break OF, forming
the so-called paleocrystic foes. AS the cur
/ rent is TO the east they are Hoated away
/ to the Lincoln sea, where Mares and Greedy
J saw such numbers Of them.
| Pearys discovery increases the probabli-
/ ity that, as has been coniectured. the
higher masses Of this glacial ice are formed
by enormous ice pressure which brushes
some of the blocks together and forces
others under the mass At any rate they
are not of ancient origin and the name OF
Paleocrystio sea Is misnomer,-New York

Sports, like everything else in the United
States. have prospered during the last
year. and while not many changes have
been wrought still there have been few
for the betterment Of the various games.
Scarcely a sport but what has been to the
fore at some season and which has pros
pered. Base ball, as the great national
game, is at the head Of the list with an
increased attendance and a general better
ment Of the play, due to better organiza-
lions, and such a season has never been
witnessed Of the national sport. White
winged peace, the plumed knight Of pros
perity, seems to reign supreme, giving pros
poets for something even better during the
coming year. Recollectlons OF great games
are held by more fans OF the last season
than OF any OF its predecessors and more
have turned out, scarcely a town or ham
let In the country but what has had It's

Base ball Is governed by uniform rules
all over the country. and while but a
small proportion Of fandom has seen teams
