HIM SIS
TO CUT DOWN TREE
Shade Tree Commissions Ac-
ceptance of Money May
Lead to Row.

h sum OF SIS that no one is quite
sure what to do with is in the City
Hall today as a result of a case brought
by the Shade Tree Commission,
through its secretary. Carl Bannwart,
against Carl Hueltlg. of 81 Willoughby
street, who cut down u tree last Sun
day in front of his house. The money
and, he intends to use it for a new
tree to replace the old one.
On the testimony of Mrs. Fred
Nierschilling and Miss Henriett One,
of 103 Willoughby street, IL. A. Kohl
iler went with a complaint against
Hueltig to the Fourth Precinct Police
Court this morning. Hueltig was to
have been there, but did not appear,
so Judge Herr declined TO take the
complaint, saying that 1t would be
better to settle out of court.
Accordingly, when kolliner returned
TO the City Hall and found Hueltig
waiting for him Mr.. Bannwart signifed
his willingness to accept the money
for a new tree and let the matter drop.
Consultation with City Attorney
Boggs, however, elected the opinion
that the commission had no right to
settle the case, as 1t was a penal Of
Tense, and II 1t did take the money 1t
would have no right to it and could
not use 1t.
To clear the matter up. though, Mr..
Bannwart tool the SIS and gave a re-
oeipt to Hueltig, stating that 1t would
be spent for a new tree. He claims
in that way he may use the money. as
il is not a fine, and proposes TO do so.

the Nettie showed no lights.
The Magnolia had just completed the
run between Plum Island and Sleeps
head Bay when out of the darkness, on
the port side. the passengers saw an
other boat approaching. Many of thu
passengers were women and instantly
they we're in panic.
Captain Heineman had seen the
strange craft and threw over his wheel
to avoid a collision, but could not.
The Magnolia trembled from stem to
stern, and men and women were hurled
from their feet as the crash came. and
the decks were literally cut In two and
both halves began sinking.
The cries of the men and women sud
denly dumped into the water eould be
heard plainly on shore. The crew CT
the Nettie, which phys between the foot
of Ocean venue, Sheepshead Bay, and
Point Breeze, began the work of rescue,
and the William Schaefer, a launch,
owned and commanded by Captain
William Schaefer. also helped.
1t was no easy matter to rescue
thirty men and women from the waters.
However. they were pulled in one by
one, some of the crew of the Nettie and
Schaefer using boat-hooks. Others dived
into the waves and held up women
until ropes were hurled to them.

Great Canadian Glacier.
1m the Chicago Tribune.

From the Chicago Tribune.
 Eight thousand and four feet of ice high is the Yeho glacier of Canada. Since the first discovery of this largest of Canada's glaciers it has maintained a grand archway of ice at it's lower extremity The span of this arch is no less than 25o feet, and it's height is estimated at 70 feet. while from be- meath the arcn the drainage escapes.
 The formation of the arch seems 10 be an annual phenomenon. Toward the close of the summer 1t becomes weak ened by melting and the whole strue- ture collapses. The ice gradually is broken up and finally removed. and the formation of new archway is com menced.
 From the arehway issues the Yoho river It is calueulated that an ava lanche must have occurred in 1850 or 1S60 Since then the retreat of the glacier has been at the average rate of five or six feet a year. From Au- gust. 1901. to August. 190t, it was found that the retreat had been III feet. or g feet year. Between August. 1901. and August 1905, the glacier reeeded but nine feet. and is now thought to be checked.
 About the nose of the glacier there is evidence of a bodily disruption of the rock strata To which the term pluck ing" is applied. Rock layers are ripped off where the layers are thin bedded and pointed, and the fragments are pressed into the ice to assist in further work The Yoho glacier is an almost if not entirely isolated example of a glacier as a great engine of erosion. Other glaciers 1 move forward and are engines of trans ! portatiOn.
