this to do with the moonf We know
that the attraction of the moon con-
trolls the tides OF the waters OF tho
earth; when the moon had but
thin crust, through the numerous hs-
sures In which the fiery lava could
force its way, the lunar control Of ebb
and flow was demonstrated. The lava
broke through the assures. rose up
and then flowed back again; and 20
on for long periods until there were

ible It 10.
The well-known English astrono-
mers. Nasmyth and Carpenter. tried
to prove years ago that tho lunar

ramparts grew out of the nery mass
thrown out Of the moons center.

the matter thrown out was not cast
in such wide circles. because on the
earth bodies are six times a. heavy ~
they are on the moon with its much
smaller power OF attraction. This
theory, too. has its numerous faults.
Thus 1t must be admitted that We are
still far from solving the mystery Of

COAL PROBLEM ,
BIG HANDICAP
German Cruisers Obliged 10
Take Fuel on High Seas
ARLSRURE NEARLY CAUGHT
n. M. S. Suffolk Comes Up When
kalser's Ship Is Taking Coal From
kronprinz Wilhelm Of Our Coast.

An officer of the British cruiser Suf-
folk, which is taking coal in Halifax,
tells story of how the German cruis-
er Karlsruhe escaped capture decently
by the Suffolk and the Berwick of the
British navy. The Karlsruhe ex.
changed shots with the Berwick, but
was too fast for the latter and made
her escape. The incident is signih
cant Of the difficulty the Germans are
having in coaling their ships on this
side of the Atlantic.
The story is that on Friday last the
British cruiser Berwick was in en-
gagement with the German cruiser
Karlsruhe off the American coast. The
cruisers exchanged shots. The Brit
ish escaped injury and it is thought
the German ship did as well. The Suf-
folk came upon the Karlsruhe just in
the act of beginning to take in coal
on the high seas from the German
liner Kronprinz Wilhelm.
The two German ships separated
and took fight, leaving some of their
boats in the water. The Suffolk fol-
lowed the Karlsruhe from IL in the
morning until in the afternoon, when
she lost the Germans smoke beyond
the skyline.
Meanwhile the Suffolk wirelessed the
Berwick. The Berwick, coming in the
opposite direction to the chase, headed
off the Karlsruhe and the engagement
ensued. The officer who told the story
went on to say that this "coaling on
the fly" by the Germans cannot keep
up forever. "They are bottled up over
here till the war is over. Sooner or
later we will get them"
"There are two German cruisers in
these waters" he added, 80 far as
we knOw-the Karlsruhe and the
Dresden"
On Saturday the Suffolk captured
as a prize the German tank steamer
Leda worth on a conservative esti-
mate 100000. The Germans did not
know that war had been declared.
