HISTORY OF THE ANTARCTIC
Interesting Light on Past and Present
OF Its Continent Thrown by the
Discoveries of Shacketon.

Shackleton's discoveries, as inter-
preted by biologists, throw some in
teresting light on the past and pres
snt of the Antarctic continent. 1t has
long been surmised that certain south
polar lands may have one time formed
a connection between the chief geo.
graphic regions of the earth. Wilkes
Land, South Victoria Land and Ora.
ham Land with other regions more re-.
Gently named, have been conceived as
forming continent which in remote
periods may have stretched its shores
10 connections with the other CONT
nents of the southern hemisphere.
THESE suppositfons have been placed
beyond doubt by Shackleton. Parts of
the antarctic continent have been sub
merged, but 1t was originally continu-
ms land surface of vast extent. Africa
was connected with It, and through it
with South America and Australia. at
IS even possible" says writer in Sci
nnce. ito imagine land connection of
Africa and South America, on the one
hand through Antarctica and Austria
Ia with, on the other hand, Malaysia
and the continent Of Asia. There has
certainly been connection of Malaysia
win Australia, and probably with tho
Asiatic mainland

FOR A NEW RULING

e1.-Alleging that the prosecution
was given material advantage by
COURTS ruling, that it can challenge
for cause, men who refuse to convict
in capital cases where the evidence
is entirely circumstantial, while tho
defense cannot challenge on the same
grounds, Attorney Darrow asked the
court to reopen the question today.
Judge Bordweu denied the appli-
cation without prejudice" saying it
Z osSibly may be reopened later.
This ruling would favor the de-
tense but Darrow contends that when
10 jury is allowed to fix life imprison-
ment for a murder they might con-
vet man knowing the decision
would not be fatal to a prisoner and
could be rectified.
No jurors were passed today.

BEATTIE PRAYS AS
CHAIR is TESTED

Richmond Va, Nov. 21.-With
scarcely a shadow of his spirit of
jauntiness in evidence, Henry Clay
Beattie, under sentence to be electro
cuted Friday for the murder of his
young wife, today threw off his bra
vado, when electricians began testing
the electric chair in which he will
die in three days, fell on his knees and
prayed.
Apparently having suddenly come to
Il realization of the short period of
time left for him to live, Beattie is
trying to find comfort in religion
which he has until today steadfastly
refused to consider.
Reports that Beattie has confessed
to Reverend Dennis are unconfirmed
today. II is believed a detailed state
ment will be made after the execu-
ton.

had confessed she was guilty of
wrong doing. and promised to kill
him If he prosecuted Strous. as he
had threatened to do.
