WHALES AND EAGLES
PUZZLE THE NATURALISTS
They Are Known as Natures Subma-
rines and Aeroplanes.

They Are Known as Natures Subma-
rines and Aeroplanes.
There are two animals that puzzle
naturalists more than any others.
They are natures submarine and aer-
oplane, the whale and the eagle. 1t
is known that whales occasionally de-
scend as much as 5000 feet below
the surface of the sea- depth at
which, by the pressure of the water,
they ought to be crushed fiat. Why
they are not injured scientists have
yet to discover. 1t is this pressure
which prevents a modern submarine
descending even 800 feet, let alone
5000.
Eagles have been seen through tel
escapes to fly with apparent ease
from 10000 to 10000 feet above sea
level. At that height no human be-
ing can live, owing to the ratification
of the air. How the birds live and
fly at far greater heights than man
can endure for long is question
still to be answered.

UNION OF METHODISTS
TO Be DECIDED IN 1918
RECENT NORTHERN CONFER
ENCE VOTES FOR CoNsOLIDA-
TON OF TWO CHURCHES.

The prospect of Methodist union,
possibly as early as 1918 and IN any
case not later than 1920, has aroused
widespread interest among the mem
hers of Protestant churches as to the
size and rank of the Methodist
church when reunited.
Endorsed by Both Branches.
The Methodist General Conference,
which has Just concluded its session
at Saratoga Springs, unanimously IN
dorsed the proposed union of Amer
lean Methodism. If the General Con-
ference of the Methodist Episcopal
church, South, in 1918 also ndorses
the plan the union can probably be
put into effect, to some extent, at
once.
Slavery. which also divided the
Presbyterian and Baptist churches
was the cause of the division of the
Methodist Episcopal church. Among
Methodists the schism took place IN
1874, arising from the case of BISHOP
James Osgood Andrew, of Georgia.
whose wife was Shareholder. The
Methodist Protestant church was the
outgrowth of a still earlier dispute
over the mutual rights of the min
istrv and laity. It was formed about
1890. and was itself split in 1858 by
the slavery question. In 1866 the
Northern half of the Methodist Pro-
testant church fused with the Wes-
levan Methodist church and in 1877
both parts of the Methodist Protest
ant church were again brought to-
gether.

hitting on Other Fronts.
Mean e the tide of battle rolls
on on 9th, fronts. In the southern
Tyrol region Archduke Charles Fran
els, who apparently is a new leader
in that section, is waging desperate
campaign against the Italians. The
latter have been driven toward the
border and lost in one of the blood
lest engagements in that sector of the
hill known as Col. Santo, which they
had taken some time before. Some
of the outermost of Italy's frontier
lines are reported by the Austrians
to have been taken.
The Italians admit the loss, but
minimize it. They claim the Austri-
ans lost in four days fight upward
of 35, 900 men and that the gain was
not commensurate with this loss. The
Austrians had made extensive prepa-
rations for the drive and assembled
a large number of big guns, following
the German scheme of operations
against the Russians when the latter
were driven out of Galicia and Po-
land.
On the western front the fighting
in the vicinity of Verdun, which be-
gan on February 81, still continues,
with attack and counter attack on
both sides. A German gain in one
place is followed by French gain in
another, and so the tide of battle
ebbs and flows, with heavy losses to
both belligerents.
Hard Fighting in Flanders.
In Flanders there has been some
hard fighting at the User canal, where
the Germans endeavored, but failed,
to pierce the British lines. The coun-
try is still flooded and operations are
necessarily slow. The Germans, how
ever, are concentrating guns and men
in Flanders, whether with the view of
making another drive toward the
channel or of being ready to oppose
the proposed British advance is not
certain. But many big guns and heavy
reinforcements have been sent by the
Germans to Flanders.
With the Italians being attacked
with mighty forces in the southern
Tyrol it is likely that the allies will
at once launch another offensive on
other fronts-probably in Flanders
and in the Balkans. Great armies OF
the allies are now at Salonica and an
offensive movement in the Balkans
may be expected soon. The fighting
everywhere is taking on its spring
activity, and the toll Of death IN
creases.

FOOT BALL is COSTLY

Harvard Will Expend Over $4,000
For Coaching Alone.


For Coaching Alone.
In the reorganization of Harvard
foot ball next fall more than $40, 200
is expected to be expended for the
coaching staff. 1t is commonly under
stood that Harvard paid Gridiron
Coach Haughton $4,000 annually for
three years and that like sum was
made up for his benefit by interested
alumni.
An increase in salary is to be ex-
pected in Haughton's case, the fig
ures of which, all told, will probably
foot $4,000 for next season as gem
eral director.
Field Coach Leo Leary, who is to
have charge of the development of
the team until Haughton's base ball
duties are over, will very likely draw
down $4,000.

BACK TO NATURE Bug

ATLANTA.-The chief of the Full

men patrol the roads of the county
outside of the corporate limits of At
lanta, is getting complaints from the
farmers that children of mothers who
have got the "back to nature bug"
are romping in wildwood naked.
Not Sticklers.
The farmers have told the chief
that they are not sticklers for whole
lot of clothing on children in the
summer time, but they do insist upon
observance of convention to the ex-
tent of covering the nakedness of the
little folks, and they want the county
police to make the "back to nature"
mothers keep their children on the
privacy of their own premises.
But this is not all, nor the worst
of it.
Convey of Six Women.
One angry farmer-or one at least
who gave an imitation of anger
rode into the court house the other
day and told the county chief that he
had flushed a covey of six women
clad in the altogether, romping on
the greensward in a secluded hollow
back of his cow pasture, and he said
they ran like frightened deer when
he came upon the scene.

won't be able to let her menfolks
leave the house. They are liable to

The county police are not worry
ing much about the "back to nature"
children, but they are trying their
best to find the bevy of wood nymphs
that make a practice of romping in
