Fifty Years A go.

Has II occurred to you TO reflect that
lust about fifty years ago began the
greatest war in all human history?
Half n century ago the north and the
south were entering the struggle which
developed into gigantic dimensions. far
more serious than even the most SEN
,ational prognosticator of events could
toresee. Beginning in April Of 1861.
for four years the southern sec
hon of this republic was drenched In
the blood of the best young manhood
from both north and south. The OPP
posing forces were made up of men
Of the sama race. or. more properly. the
same conglomeration of races. COM
prsing not only the best Of the 50
called Anglo Saxon breed. but likewise
the stolid and thorough Teuton. the
effervescent and pugnacious Celt and
an admlxture of other European

In its results. At this distance, fifty
years away. though happily many Of
the brave men who fought for north
and for south still survive. we may
look back without bitterness to the
great struggle and estimate Its results
In the light of subsequent history.
We see now that the civil war. hor-

ter of men and the sorrow It brought
to the hearthstone, was an event of
vast moment In the progress of civili-

the beginning of another Its outcome,
with the establishment and mainte-

T0MBS OF SAND.
Cape Gods Treaeherous Shoals and the
Prey They Grip.

Cape Gods Treaeherous Shoals and the
Prey They Grip.
Secrets of the sands of Cape Cod are
onstantly being disclosed by the sea.
IN the many storm tides that flood the
desolate beaches the hulks of stanch
ships lost along the coast on the half
hundred miles of beaches between Mo-
nomoy at Chatham and Wood End at
Provincetown are frequently exhumed
from tombs of sand.
Sometimes a wreck appears that has
been buried a century or more, as in
the case a few years ago of the bones
of the British frlgate Somerset, whose
timbers of oak were disclosed to view
back of Provincetown, near the life
saving station in Dead Mems Hollow.
The Somerset was lost ON Peaked Hill
bars Nov. 2 or 3, 177S
Once a vessel is gripped by the sands
the process of entombing her goes on
with great rapidity, the craft appear
ing to sink steadily in the yielding
beach. All around the doomed vessel
the sand piles up in great drifts, like
snow. Every crevice of the hull is
quickly filed. The sand rises in a solid
barrier outside 1t and flows about 1t
as the tides food the shelving beaches.
Finally it sweeps over the wreck. and
the process Of entombing goes on until
the entombed craft is covered many
feet deep.-Boston Globe.
