imm.nsi.y of the Swiss Glaciers.

The glaciers united to form the great Corner glacier above Zermatt have 8 width of ten miles. Soon after they have joined the width is reduced to two miles and farther on to one mile. The depth of the glacier Is. of course
 increased when It's width is dimin
 ished. Swiss glaciers have been bored to depth of 800 feet without reaching the bottom. and. small as they are com, pared with the great glaciers of the glacial age, 1t is calculated that they attain in places a depth of 2.0oo feet. There is enough solid ice in the great Corner glacier to build three cities the size of London. There are about 1,5o0 glaciers in Switzerland, some of which unite with one another as they de- scend. and the total area they cover is over 1000 square miles, with an aver age thickness difficult to estimate, but probably not overestimated at 25o feet.

Following the nomination of the above ticket the Republican state con. vention of New York named a commit tee from the various judicial districts to confer with a committee of Demo crats and select a second candidate for the court of appeals in place of Justice Haight. The convention then adjourned sine die.
 Senator Root. discussing the action of the convention, said:
 ''It Is a healthy and wholesome ticket. It Is a ticket nominated by the delegates themselves. It would have been a most cruel and wicked thing for any man here to have at tempted to frustrate the ambitions of the three candidates for governor who presented themselves to the peo- pie It would have stif1ed ambition; 1t would have choked natural aspiration for any Republican to have attempted to set aside either Mir. Hedges. MT. Wadsworth or MT. Bennett. Judge Hedges will make an excellent candi- date for governor"
 HAA" 1AChSGS was nIdaE unanimous after the third ballot had given him a majority of the 1,015 dele gates. For the lieutenant governor ship there was no candidate against MT. Wadsworth and not a vote was cast against him Tn the perfunctory roll call, which was made after he practically had been nominated by ac- clamation.
 After MT. Hedges had mounted the platform, afrectionately kissed his mother and made a clever speech of acceptance, in which he declared he intended to make a vigorous fight for election, MT. Wadsworth. looking pale and determined, appeared and, In his acceptance, promised a battle for decent government in this state. ,fs's.
 The selection Of the rest of the ticket was accomplished in perfunctory fashion, without serious conflict over any of the nominations.
 Throughout the nominations the one time leaders Of the party adhered ap- parently to their attitude of leaving the delegates to their own devices and permitting them to nominate whoever they desired. The vote of the AL bany delegates. controlled by William Barnes. Jr.. was generally split among the various candidates.

 School matters have been trife diff ficult to settle in the village school this season. So many new faces in the primary department have filled that room to overflowing, while the grammar department, which sent a number of its members to the high schools this term. has altogether too few to make teaching matter of interest MT. L. K. Chance, the supervisor, has been obliged to put the highest grade of the primary room into Miss Sandmeyer's room, thus solv- ing the difficulty of numbers but not of grades.
 Mrs. William R. Brush is solving the problems of the local amateur photo graphers by being wiling to develop films for them, and print their pictures if they so desire. This fills a much needed want in this vicinity, as nearly every school girl and school boy, to say nothing of the grown-ups, have camera these days, and while there is fascina- tion about doing your own work; the films are disagreeable to handle. and many much rather pay the small charge and get the work done without any trouble to themselves.
 Grange fair. which has been so suc- cessful for 8 number of past years, and to which the people all over town look forward to with much interest, comes this week Friday. Of course the ex- hibits are interesting, but there is no doubt that the chicken pie supper, and thu music of the band. have something to do with the extra large crowds which gather at Grange Hall for this occasion.
 The ladies of the Aid Society are plan ming to again make collection of old papers, catalogs and magazines some time during the first part of October.
