have observed that the water
around the equator. on both sides
of South America, has lately
been 10 degrees colder than the
average, and the change of tenn
perature is ascribed to the vast
quantity of Antartic ice which
has recently floated equatorward.
Is it possible, it is asked, that
the axis of the earth IS changing
position, aud that the result is
seen in the recent disturbances
OF the present time?
A recent, scientific theory
claims that the North Pole once
was somewhere in Canada, and
that the South Pole, of course,
at that time also had a position
different from its present loca-
ton. The present polar regions
had a temperate climate, as
proved by the remains of ami
mails found there now, imbedded
in ice and snow. Then the
earth, it is said, changed its
axis. The polar regions were
moved, and as IA consequence Of
this change in the rotation of
our globe, the glacial period Of
the earth occurred. The vast ice
masses that had accumulated at
the pole we're scattered over a
large portion of the earth's sur
face. The ice flowed from the
northern part of this continent
out into the Atlantic. over lee
land, the scandinavian PENN
sula, and into Russia, and part
of it branched out over Europe
in a southerly direction.
This theory Is referred to Gully
as a theory. The variability Of
the earth's axis is only recently
observed, and the data are not
sufficient to furnish basis for
conclusions that can be recon-
mended for infallibility. But
the fact that the entire globe is
in commotion and that the Ant
arctic regions are sending forth
ice masses into the Atlantic and
Pacific Oceans, has suggested
the question whether another
shifting Of the poles is taking
place, involving, it may be, rad
ical changes in the physical con-
ditions of the earth. - eseret

WHAT Ais THE EARTH?

The young centnry's appalling
record of calamities has been
added to by the destruction of
the city of Kingston, on the
island Of Jamaica, by earth
quake and fire. as in the case of
San Francisco and Valparaiso.
Jamaica is the largest of the
British West Indian Islands, sit
uated about ninety miles south
of Cuba. The length of the
island is about $50 miles and its
width is given as fifty miles.
The full extent of the calamity
that has overtaken it's chief city
is perhaps net yet fully known,
but it is evident that the loss of
life and property is enormous
for the size of the country.
From Manila come reports of a
devastating typhoon which is
said to have swept the islands of
Leyte and Samar. causing the
loss of 100 lives on the first
named island, and immense dam
age to property in it's path. AS
communication with the islands
visited by the storm was cut off,
full particulars had not been re-
ceived when the report was sent
from Manila.
1t is plain to all that we are
living in a time of unusual visi-
tations. 1t is clear that there is
some worldwide cause for the
disturbances that are occurring
SO frequently, but what is that
cause 1t has beeu observed
lately that huge icebergs have
broken away from the Antarctic
regions and floated farther north
than such masses of ice gener-
ally do. 1t is stated that sailors
