lin. Ohio
The author in this work makes what
he claims 10 be a first presentation Of
facts ON the glacial epoch. claiming that
new aspects OF the new fnds and Of the
new evidence are forcing themselves
upon MS attention constaptly, He be
leNes that he has followed these evil
denccs sufficiently TO reach conclusions
that are probably correct, "or 1T any
rate so nearly so that they cannot be
Ignored by those who think II worth
While TO make comprehensive study OF
the subject" We think that Professor
Wright is mistaken In supposing that the
scientists who have studied the glacial
epoch, and especially the evidences bear
ing upon II In the United States, have
ignored evidences such he here pre-
sents. He brings forward as ono of his
evidences a striking case that was noted
by The Tribune at tho time of its dis
covcry. OF a small ngurine near Nampa
In Idaho. where Nh. NJ. A. Kurtz found
this image while boring an artesian we'll.
The Image was found at :, depth ot
about 320 feet. and was pumped up In

the well. We have seen that image und

glacial epoch, because the region round
ABOUT Nalnpa Is both volcanic and al
luvial. Very great freshets carving tre-
douotedly swept over the valley OF the
snake River with terrible nerceness. and

OF long period OF time. And SO. gen
orally speaking, is the evidence In any
matter relating 80 the glacial epoch. or
10 any of the main geological periods OF
the earth S progress. Professor Wright
argues from this Nampa discovery. and
from other evidences which he presents
IN this work. that the glacial epoch has
generally been put TOO Tar back in the
history OF mankind. and that il is in
tact much more recent than is common
y supposed. But that there has been more
than one glacial period is the opinion now
generally held 1t is fair TO say that Pro-
lessor Weirht presents his case in the
true scientific spirit and that he is justi-
he'd In SAYING that the evidences which
ne here presents cannot DC ignored by
those who make q, scientific study Of the
glacial epoch. But we do not believe that
the evidences he presents are such as
seriously 10 disturb the scientific juds~
ment heretofore arrived at as TO the
antiquity and duration of that epoch or
perhaps better, those epochs.
