MARINE:
SOLAGE HAD FIRE
IN HER BUNKERS

On Sunday, October I, the United
States supply ship Solace left Samoa
for Honolulu. the delay being caused
by fire breaking out in her bunkers.
This intelligence was received by cable
at the Naval Station yesterday, and
was probably wirelessed from Samoa 10
one Of the cruisers stationed at FIJI
or Tanning, both places being cable
stations Of the Alfred route. At any
event. il Is the first information re-
ceived of the feet since it sailed from
Honolulu, September 10, for Samoa,
outside of the cable news that the
Solaee had been despatched to Christ
mas Island to succor the passengers
and crew Of the wrecked steamer
Aeon. Spontaneous combustion is the
attributed cause Of the fire.
The rumor persisted yesterday that
only a part of the feet would arrive
here today. or whenever it does reach
port, as stated in the Advertiser yes
terdav.

When the Matson liner Lurline
leaves Saturday for San Francisco, the
wireless operator and purser, Mr.. c. P.
Warren, viii try to keep in touch with
the Kahuku station of the local Wire
less Telegraph Company and make a
ldng-distance record. The new trans
mitter for the Kahuku station was sent
down yesterday afternoon, in charge OF
Expert Isbell, who viii put in the next
week installing the apparatus. by ne
time the Lurline is about half way 70

in working order and signals will be

station. The 1urline g wireless plant

the California coast. Of course, WIRE

when within four or FIVE days dis
tanee from there. At this time Expert
IsbeH viii also try to send messages
directly to san Francisco, without

Advertiser Steamship Files.
When the Hilonian arrived in port
last week Captain johnson spoke OF
the Advertiser bound file which is car.
RED on every passenger steamship, and
said il was one of the attractions the
cabin could not get along without Ho-
noluIans who have been absent from
the islands for sometime, get news OF
home as soon as they go aboard at
San Francisco and the volume is pass
ed around and is read with interest by
stranger and kamaaina alike.
Yesterday morning Just as the gang
way had been lowered and the Hllo-
Man was getting under way the otflee
bow appeared on the dock with the
latest bound file of Advertisers and
tried to pass it aboard. Although Cap
tain johnson was busy on the bridge
he found time to reach for the mega
phone and shout to an officer TO get
the file from the boy and get it on
board safe. This was done and Cap
tain johnson looked pleased.
The Advertiser has followed this
custom for the past fifteen years. Each
passenger vessel carries continuous
file of the paper, the dates OF one
volume meeting those of the next.

the dock and a large crowd waving

Ionian departed for San Francisco yes

sugar, canned pineapples and bananas.

ICE DECLARED MILES DEEP

The story of the glacial period has
not been half told. It's wonders are
increasing every day. 1t is the last of
the great geological epochs, and has
not yet passed away. Greenland is
still shivering under the rigors of
glacial conditions. With the excep-
ton of narrow belt of mountains
around the southern end, the whole
continent, some 100000 square miles
IN extent, is still buried beneath ice
from one mile to two miles deep,
while the antarctic continent, with a
still greater area, is so completely en-
veloped in ice that explorers have yet
been able to penetrate only the
merest fringe at two or three points.
But during the glacial period prop
er the ice to depth of more than a
mile covered 100000 square miles
OF North America and 100000 square
miles in Europe. In North America
the southern border of this ice field
extended into the ocean off the New
England coast, rising like a great ice
wall out of the water, and westward

which was brought by the ice from
Canada, measures II by 13 feet, with
eight feet out of ground, and evidently
much larger mass under the ground
But Prof. Orion has described a mass
of Clinton limestone in Freeport, War
rem county, Ohio, which is three
fourths of an acre in area and Is feet
in thickness, which has been brought

northern Iowa contains a great mum.

brought from several hundred miles
away. One Of them furnished huild-
ing stone enough to construct an en-.
tire church.
Although these transported bowlders
are such striking witnesses to the slow
but majestic movement of glacial ice
during the glacial period, they are by
no means the only ones. AS the ice
slowly crept over the surface frag-
ments of rock became frozen into it's
lower strata, and powders, gravel,
sand and clay were dragged along be-

meath. The direction of the scratches
and the grooves shows the direction
in which the ice was moving at the
time they were made. This was in
the main, outward, toward the mar
gin of the glaciated area which we
have described, but there were many
curious variations. In central Ohio
the direction of the glacial scratches
Is southeast, whereas on the islands
in the western part of Lake Erie it
IS very nearly west. At Logansport.
Ind, extensive grooves and scratches
have been found where the movement
is toward the north. This variation
in the direction of the grooves and
scratches indicates that there were
eddles in the ice, such as are found IN
the current of a deep, slow-moyin&.
stream of water. The grooves on the
islands In the western end of Lake
Erie are among the most remarkable
in the world. One groove, in hard
corniferous limestone, was about 20
feet broad and eight feet deep, extend.
ing for long distance across KELLEY
island. The surface of this groove is
most finely polished, corals and other
fossils being cut off as sharply as
could be done by any graver's tool.
The direction of these grooves in the
bed Of Lake Erie is evidently due to
the fact that the depression of the
lake diverted the ice movement in it's
closing stages in the direction of it's
longer diameter toward the natural
outlet on the west.

even above his beloved Shakespeare.
Two years after the first Fourth of
July, there occurred a celebration in
independence square that had a spe,
cial significance. The advance of the
British, and their occupation of Phil,
adelphia during the winter of 1777-
ITS, had forced congress to leave the
Quaker city and go to York.
After the evacuation congress re.
turned July and grand celebration
OF the recurrence of the PRONUNCIATION
OF the declaration was held, in which
nearly the entire population of Phila.
| delphia joined. Chevalier Conrad AL
exander Gerard Of France, the first
minister ever accredited to the United
States from any power, was an inter.
ested spectator.
During the centennial in Philadel.
phia there was naturally a notable
demonstration, and no less a person
than Don Pedro, emperor Of Brazil,
sat among those who cheered the SEN
tfments that had sounded the downfall
of monarchy in this country, and were
finally to take his throne from the
ruler of Brazil.
In later years, another representa-
tive of foreign country was the CEN
trail figure at Independence square.
WI Ting Fang, Chinese minister,
spoke there with fine eloquence, and
made one of the best speeches cred
tied to him in his many felicitous utter
ances in this country.
The anomaly that he was the envoy
of one of the most absolute of mon
arches did not prevent the celestial
from painting in most graphic phrase
what the venerable building stood for.
During his first administration.
Grover Cleveland, president of the
United States, came to PHILADELPHIA
one Fourth of July and, standing on q
platform raised on the square, an
pealed to the young manhood Of Amer
lea that the great lessons of 1776 be
not ignored.
Samuel j. Randall. Judge Kelley,
Gen. Grant, Lewis Cassidy have also
figured prominently in Fourth of Julv
celebrations there
During the administration of A1avor
Warwick, himself an orator Of genuine
gifts, every year was made the oc.
caslon of notable demonstrations to
which were invited men of national
fame.
Under the direction Of the governor
OF Pennsylvania a work of inca]cu1ahl o
interest has been finished at Valley
Forge park by the state.
Valley Forge has a close relation.
snip with independence day. and the
OLD camp site has proved a Mecca m
July to thousands of Americans who
come from all over the union to nav
tribute to the fathers of the United
States who suffered and died on this
historic spot. Practically the entire
Site has been reserved. A chanel
mas been erected on the spot where
washington was discovered at PRAYER.
At the moment Valley Forge mark
comprises about ITS acres. It is
properly policed and cared for bv
workmen, whose duty it is to keen the
roads and the entire park in perfect
order.
Pubic interest has kept pace with
the work. On Memorial day $500 per.
sons registered at the headquarters,
and this is probably not one-fourth of
those who were in the park.
Anywhere from 5000 to 10000 Amer.
leans will fittingly celebrate July 4,
1908, by going over the ground, on
which their heroic forefathers under
went the sufferings that made indie.
