Bear Danced Way to Freedom.

ONdi OGISC6 way " ETCC0OFNs
A trained bear and his master were
held prisoners at No. 2 police station
In Kansas City, Kan, for one hour the
other afternoon. Stanley George, Rus
sian, was putting the bear through a
series Of dancing stunts at Packard
and Kansas avenues when Sergeant
Jacob Broadhurst asked to see his IL
oense. George had none, and the officer
marched him and the bear to the sta
ton. Your bond is FIVE dollars and
the bears is the same" the sergeant
explained, through an interpreter.
George had only four dollars, which was
accepted as his bond. But he wouldn't
leave without the bear. Finally he
prevailed upon the officers to let the
bear do five dollars worth of dancing
for the amusement of the cops as a
bond. The bear put on his best tricks
and he and his master were allowed to

PROHIBITION CONVENTION
Threatens to Discard Old Name and
Assume That of Progressive

threatens TO DISCARD OLD Name ana
Assume That of Progressive
Atlantic City, N. j., July o.
Maintaining that the Prohibition party
is the original progressive party, a
determined effort will be made by the
leaders to change the party name at
the national convention, which opens
here tomorrow.
With the prospect of a new party
under the Roosevelt leadership now
practically assured, Prohibition lead
ers here in advance of the convention
insist that if any is entitled to be
named progressive" it is their party,
which ever has stood for advanced
political principles.
Though the party to be formed next
month in Chicago is being referred to
as the progressive party" the Pro-
hibitionists point to the fact that the
organization as yet unborn had not
been christened and that they are en-
titled to the new name If they choose
to take it.
The movement TO rechristen the
party has been considered for some
time and at this convention delegates
from all the states are coming pre-
pared to take a determined stand.
The New York, Pennsylvania and
Nebraska delegations are reported to
be practically so1id in favor of a
change of name.

GREAT COAST CHANGE
Recent Volcanic Action May Close
Up Behrina Strait


Seattle, July 9.-Permanent altera-
ton in the climate OF the Alaskan
coast through shifting Of warm ocean
currents by lifting Of the sea bottom,
the opening of new fishing banks, Of
unestimated value and the eventual
closing of Behring straits, owing also
70 rise in the floor Of the sea, are
among the scientific probabilities now
suggested by investigation Of the
eruption Of Mount Katmai a month
ago.
So far as the earth's surface is con-
cerned, the eruption was beneficial,
the volcanic ash having already stimu-
lated plant growth. Biologists assert
that the tops Of submerged mountains
which form the Aleution isles are ris-
ing steadily through pressure on the
sea bottom from enormous amounts Of
sediment, and, after eventually cut
ting of Behring sea, viii continue 70
rise until what Is now the sea will be
replaced by a great sweep Of land.
