TRACING THE DAMAGE

Professor Herbert William Magoun.
Of Eedf1eld college. is studying Noah's
flood as one Of the greatest events OF
reliable history. In his latest chapter
on it. just published, he says that it
changed the whole earth. creating enor-
nous seas where dry and was before

le can still find of damage done.
On this record he writes that the
HOOD could not have been a myth. He
1oes not undertake to say how much
Of Asia was covered by it or whether
all the land on earth was covered. He
hardly thinks so. He has no doubt that
the change of which it was part was
felt throughout the whole earth. 1t
began in what are o the United
cracking of the earth's crust as great
areas Of land sunk to lower levels. He
thinks the earth's crust gave way
upwards or d~ownwards toward the
close Of what Is called the great ice
age in this country and Europe. The
destruction of life was enormous.
Wherever men then lived, those who
escaped saw the world changed as it
nus never been changed since.

SO plainly shown in many ways that

TREE STARTED FROM STAKE
Story Of Big Cottonwood in Grounds

NEXT THING no Ir.
From the Topeka Capital.

From the Topeka Capital.
In an article concerning a large old
cottonwood tree which stands near the
cast wing Of the state house, d. o. Nc
Cray claimed that the tree sprung up
from a seed, and that after withstand
ing Many battles with both the ele-
ments of allure and with man. 1T had
survived until it had grown into an ex-
ceedingly large ana magnificent shade
tree.
w. II. Fernald, of 521 Tyler ST., who
has lived in Topeka for 4S years, said
there seems to be a mistake about the
real origin of this product of the forest.
At the time when the east wing of the
state house was built Mr.. F'ernald was
a small boy. and yet he says he iemem-
bers distinctly about h trees. AT that
time he earned his first money carrying
working on the building. During that
time HI claims that the tree found it's
origin.
In speaking of the cottonwood he
said: II remember distinctly the day I
went to work for the first time in my
life for wages. During the day the fore
man cut down a COTTONWOOD tree almost
II or Ia inches in diameter, and from 1t
he obtained a post about 15 feet long.
This post was set in the ground about
five or Six feet below the surface, and
it was used to hold a guy rope from a
large wooden derrick which hoisted the
stone for the building.
1T was wet weather at the time and
within a week or so The post had start
ed to grow. 1t kept on growing, n as
no one hindered it it soon took the form
which was most natural for It and grew
Int q good sized tree. The peculiar
shape it has since assumed Is due to the
way in which 1t started. Probably one
reason Why the tree was not removed
while it was still in the form of a post
is that the stones which had been piled
around 1t While the building was being
built were not removed until several
years after the post was set in the

Annual Scrap is On.

The representatives from Ly-
man and Stanley counties forgot
something at the late session If
the legislature, a4.i the annual
scrap between the counties is on,
over which shall levy and collect
taxes in a strip OF about twenty
miles long and mile and half in
width. The north line of Lyman
county was fixed with the Black
Hills survey as q basis to work
from, and when that line was car
ried east to the Missouri river it
ran into the older survey which
was carried from the east of the
river, and the township line does
not match by about a mile and a
half. This leaves portions Of
farms lying in both counties, and
Lyman county claims that the
township line was intended to be
the real boundary, while Stanley
says the law creating Lyman coun-
ty fixes the boundary regardless Of
township lines. This question can
only be settled by legislation, al
though it is possible that the com
missioners Of the two counties can
come to some agreement until an
other session of the legislature is
held. Pennington county, while
not in the shape of dispute with
any neighboring county, has
neither its northern or southern
boundary on a township line, and
while they do follow section lines,
the division places parts of town
ships in two counties, and bothers
with township organizatins in case
any such is desired.
