FLOATING ISLAND FOUND
Queer Discovery Made by tho Crew
Of the Bark Atlas In the
Pacific Ocean.

The crew OF the bark Atlas. Which
arrived In Seattle recentl- after
the Horn from Philadelphia.
reports a queer discovery for one day
of the 1873 OF her voyage. She had
been out many days without seeing
anything-only three ships were seen
on the entire trip-when one morning
in the Pacific the lookout reported
that he had sighted land OF the port
bow where no land was supposed to
be. Nor could any be found on the
charts.
1t seemed low in the water. but too
much like the real thing to be a
mirage. SO the captain ran toward IT.
It proved to be land. right enough; an
island covered with trees and thick
low underbrush. Birds and few
monkeys were seen upon It, but no
other signs OF life. These precluded
the possibility OF the island being oil
volcanic origin. and leads the captain
to claim II as a floating Island. He
believes that II was washed out to see
from delta of the Rio de la Plata oil
the Negro. and that the underground
was SO thick that its roots held thu
whole together.
AS he saw two trees tumble int
the water from the Islands edge be
fore he sailed away his theory appear
to be somewhat substantiated.

ARMY IS PREPARED
ManeuVers Show High Proficiency
to War Department.
Practice in Going to and From Phi.
ippines Has Taught Troops How
to Move Quickly.

Washington, April 3--Aside from
the diplomatic significance and other
considerations involved, the movement
of troops to Texas is regarded by the
War department officials as having
demonstrated the preparedness of the
army
Detailed reports of the movement of
camp conditions are coming in daily.
at is evident, said General Wood,
chief of staff, today, THAT the ex-
perience which the American troops
have gained in recent years in the
government movements to and from
the Philippines has taught them how
to move and to move quickly.
According to the reports of Major
General Carter from the headquarters
of the maneuver division at San An
tonic, the whole movement has pro-
duced nothing but satisfaction as a
military situation. The ease with
which the movement has been carried
out and the absence of confusion, it is
said, are attributable distinctly to the
lessons learned during the Spanish
American war. In 1898, all the re-
QUESTIONS came after the arrival of
the troops, and some of them never
reached the troops for which they
were intended.
On the movement toward the Mexi-
can border the troops took their own
supplies with them. All the officers
had their equipment ready as though
in time of war. Under the new reg
ulations. the baggage which they car
ried is limited, whereas in 1898 it lit
tered the fields and camps. The en-
listed men carried their shelter tents,
blankets, towels, combs and brushs,
!; tooth brushes and soap and everything
: was ready for their comfort within 6
: short time after detraining.
