THE KING WEPT.

The news comes that at the great me-
mortal service in st. Paul's cathedral,
London, in honor Of Captain Scott and
the other men who persisted with him
in the Antarctic regions, the king wept
unaffectedly, along with other nOtablcs
of his realm.
The story somehow warns our hearts
toward the king, though it is not easy
to discover any good reason why he or
any other men of sensibility and refine
ment should not be affected under such
circumstances. In the ancestry of the
king there have been many brave and
gallant gentlemen. Plantagenets. Tu-
doris, Stuarts, Guelphs. If there is any
thing in the doctrine of heredity, the
King of England should be deeply
thrilled by the story of herOism like that
Of Scott.
The bravery of Scott and his cOmpan-
ions was the ordinary courage that men
display when suddenly brought face TO
face with death, plus something higher,
better and III every way nObler.
1t was courage that was put upon the
rack day by day, through the long
dreary cold of the Antartic-thrOugh its
gloom, through its anxiety; the courage
of a man who could rise above a ter
rible and depressing environment, and in
spite of the pressure of that environ
ment, must think for others and care
for others; the courage of a man, who
when all hope of life was gone, could
make a generous appeal to his country
men i'll behalf of the families of those
who were perishingwith him. 1t was
the bravery of a man who had not the
inspiration Of martial music, the tramp
of charging %squadrOns, the touch of cOm-
rades' arms, shoulder to shoulder, in the
fierce hot rush of the battle hour.
The king wept silently, and the people
wept aloud. Say what we will, we all.
kings or commoners, love a brave man.
and we all despise a coward. Whatever
we may think Of the value Of polar *
petitions, or of the wisdom Of undertake
ing them, We simply have to admire men
like Captain Scott. We can not help it..

We read of a shower Of fish falling in
the neighborhOOd of Bryan. A small
catfish, five inches long, when picked up
from the mud and replaced in the water
swan merrily away. This fact suggests
two interesting scientific problems. How
high is a cloud? How far can a catfish
fall and get away with it?

The appearance of meningitis at Aus

something of a stampede from the CAPT

The federals offered Diaz every con

ordered the battle to 90 on. "Considera-

position. 1t might be construed to be a

being hung and being shot.

TRAVEL OF SCIENTISTS
OVER WORLD DESCRIBED
Smithsonian Institution Booklet
Tells of Various Notable
Expeditions.

Recent Investigations by many
scientists indicate that the original In
dian population of the United States
was the overflow Of the aboriginal
population Of southeastern Asia and
Mongolia. DIR. Ales Hrdlicka, who has
just returned from that region, Says
he found striking evidences that the
theory is correct. He bases his belief
not only on the prehistoric remains
found in this little-explored region, but
on the striking resemblance of the ex-
listing race of natives to the American
Indians.
Dr. Hrdlicka explored southern ST.
IBERIA, both east and west of Lake
Baikal. He extended his search into
outer Mongolia. The capital, Urga, and
two large monasteries of the region
are constantly visited by natives from
all the surrounding country. On one oc-
casion he had chance to see a gather
ing Of 1000 natives in one place.
The museums Of Siberia proved un-
eXpectedly rich in chronological and
archaeological material bearing on his
search.
