ICEBOUND ANTARCTICA.
Twice as Large as All Europe Is tho
South Polar Continent.

Twice as Large as All Europe Is the
South Polar Continent.
The antarctic continent has been es-
timated to be at least twice as large
as Europe. The evidence of paleom-
tology is to the effect that Antarctica
was once connected with the more
northern lands. at least with South
America, and that in prehistoric ages
some tremendous convulsion of the
earth's crust resulted in the sinking of
the submarine" floor, until in some
places it is now 1000 fathoms, or
more than four miles below the sur
face.
All around the great land mass of
this continent there is a deep ocean
bed cutting it off from every other
land of the earth and setting it apart
as a region more unlike the rest of
the globe than any other continent or
island.
Explorations have proved that in
times before the advent of man upon
the earth this most southern land had
temperate or even warmer eli
mate There are fossils. both animal
and vegetable. which indicate this.
The formation of the rocks in Antarc-
tica also is of volcanic origin and vol

GRoTESoUE STUPIDITY.
Some of StanIey's Experiences With
the African Natives.

hHO FNliiSdH NdhiNCo-
The natives of central Africa are de-
seribed by the late Sir Henry NJ STAN
ley in his autobiography as being in
credibly stupid. He tells, for exam
pie, of one native who. with another
man, was sent in a canoe across a
river to fetch a company of men to
camp. After waiting an hour Stanley
went to the river. where he found the
two padding each in an opposite direc-
ton and blaming the other for his stu
pidity. They were in a passion of ex-
citement and quite unable to hear the
advice of the men across the river, who
were bawling directions to them how
to manage their canoe.
Another stupid fellow was generally
saved from punishment because his
mistakes were so absurd. One day we
were floating down the Kongo. Near
camping time, as he happened to be
bow man, | babe him stand by and

forthwith sprang on shore and seized
the grass with both hands while we. of
course were rapidly swept on down

The boats crew roared at the ridicu-
lous sight. Nevertheless his stupidity
cost the tired men a hard pull up river,
for not every place was available for i

Followed Suit,

This curious incident comes from
Suhr. Switzerland: An inspector of
schools, without any previous warning.
visited the village school and found
the elderly teacher asleep at his desk
and the children departed. having ap-
parently taken French leave. To give
the teacher great surprise and bad
quarter of an hour the inspector de
cided to wait until he awoke and seat
ed himself on a bench in front of the
culprit. The hours passed, and the in
spector himself went to sleep. The
teacher. on awakening and seeing who
was sleeping before him, quietly left
the school for home. Without entering
the schoolroom the concierge locked
up the school and the slumbering in
spector. Several hours later the con
cierge heard great noise and. arming
himself. opened the door and was great
ly surprised to find the angry inspector
before him.

Vaudeville Bill is on at the
Popular Victoria The
ater Now.

What you may call a genuine bill
of vaudeville is on at the ever popular
Victoria theater. The show consists
of four acts-good ones; and two
reels Of pictures. sc
To lead of with MT: al Derby, an
expert with the pupching bag does
some very remarkable stunts, not only
with his hands, bae h5 does B clever
piece oi, bag Phpcatbd1Rtth his head
and feet: This is well worth seeing.
The second act is a good one.s Miss
Mary May puts on RsEeral good clas-
sic and popular Song land it. IS pre-
sented in "a very aEastle manner. This
act is to be eiassed among the best
in vaudeville Miss May has had ex-
cellent training as her renaitfo1s will
prove.
Temple and clapk5 @a people with
an abundance Of vaudeville exper-
fence come third with a very clever
and unique turn. with good original
songs and an excellent line Of talk.
Temple and Clark come right of the
big time. Prof. Evans, the Wctoria's
congenial pianist played for this team
eighteen years ago, which means that
what is put up between the piano and
this act is backed by experience. The
singing is excellent, both voices
blending well together.
The last act is that of the Three
Hop-seotcher's, a trio. If you want
to see a side splitting comedy act,
then see this one. From beginning to
end they keep you in good humor.
For original. tumbling this is. the act
of all tumbling acts. Better go
around and see those three qscOtchies"
do real hop-scotch act. If you are
looking for laugh-have a look al

Right Way to Make Tea.

In the first place, tea never should
be boiled, as the flavor will be en-
