UNABLE TO FATHOM HIS CURVES Ilnlir * n > nch lllf * on dear In the Plrt n d Oei the Han * that Decide tke- v Victory. KANSAS CITY , Mo. , May 12. ( Special Telegram. ) The Omaha Fishermen won their game In the first Inning today by bunching their hits. Omaha tapped Gear In- a lively-fashion at the start ot the gnmc. The hlues trailed at the beginning' and never overtook their opponents. Tho'gamo wan a 'prelty exhibition. There were some glaring errors on both aides , but they were not many. Except In the first Gear pitched good ball- .I'a . FIflhcr , who twirled for his men , was nlfio very much In the game , and , If any- thing ¬ , had a trifle the better of the pitch- ing ¬ honors. Neither aide required a search warrant to locate the opposing pitcher , how ¬ ever. The DIucs started the game by doing nothing. Manager Fisher Issued a pass to Single and a wild pitch by the same magnate permitted the little centerfloldcr to advance to the second ottoman. Connaughton's fly nestled In Kuslaco's in It. McVlckcr ( lew out to Ilolllngsnorth , who connected with nus- tacc - , and Slagle was thrown out on the play. The visitors In the first time up proceeded to plunk the leather with generous and vociferous plunks. Eustace Hew out to Con- naiighton - , but Orlflln bit safely Into the left garden. Vlox could not reach Iloat.'s drive nml Grlflln crossed to third. Lyons' long lilt Into right scored the two runners. Con- naughton - handled Uurnett's liner easily and McCauley was retired at first , after Ilooncy- Vlox's hands had been wanned. Wilson for the Dlucs hit nafely In the sec- ond ¬ , although Grlflln Intercepted his liner In pretty fashion. O'Hagan flow out to- Lyons. . Williams reached first on fielder's choice , but Wilson died nt second. Burnett misjudged Frlsbee's long fly , and the ball bounded BO close to the fence that the bats- man ¬ reached third , Williams scoring. Vlox went out from Iloat to Lyons. Williams Bothered In Holllngsworth's fly In the sec- ond ¬ half of the second. Hagcrman singled Into right. Vlox's fumble gave Fisher a life , but Kustacc and Grlflln flow out to Slaglo- nud Frlsbee. Fisher toyed with Gear's easy grounder In the third and the man In blue made first- .Slaglo . hit for a bag. Connaughton sacri- ficed ¬ , but Eustace got away with McVlckcr'a fast fly and doubled on Gear. Slagle gathered In Float's cloud chaser very prettily. Frls ¬ bee disposed of Lyons. Burnett's drive was of a high temperature and by striking a rut in right field credited the batter with a- triple. . McCauley retired the Fishermen by flying out to Wllllnmi. Very Nice Hall Flnylncr. The Blues did nothing sensational In the fourth. Wilson flew to Roat. O'Hagan waa retired , Griffin to Lyons. Williams singled , tut was retired at second on Frlsbeo'a liner to GrlfTln. Holllngsworth was thrown out , Connaughton to O'Hagan. Hagorman's drive Into center was , good for two bogs- .Connaughton's . fumble gave Fisher a bag , but the manager died when -Eustace hit to- abort. . Grlflln went out by the Vlox-O'Hagan route.- Holllngsworth . shattered Vlox's hopes in the fifth. Gear singled. Slaglo flow out to- rinin < ! , but Connaughton hit for a bag- .lluructt . gobbled MoVlcker's skyscraper , re- tiring ¬ the' side. In tholr halt not a Babe aw first. Roat was thrown out by Vlox- .O'Hagan . killed Lyons' fly and nailed Bur ¬ nett's twister. The Mannlngltcs scored their second run In the sixth. Wilson started by tapping an exceedingly slow one , which Eustace ac- commodatingly ¬ let through htm. O'Hagan flow to Grlflln. Williams gained first , but Wilson was thrown out at second on his hit. Williams gained a bag on McCauley's passed ball. Frlsbee singled Into right and Wil- liams ¬ completed the circuit. Frlsbee stole a- base and gained third when McCauley threw wild to second. 'Vlox retired , Fisher to- Lyons. . McCauley went out from Con- naugaton - to O'Hagan. Holllngsworth- Ingled , but waa killed at second on Hager- mau's - fielder's choice. Connaughton threw high to first , and Fisher gained hi * bag making the initial bag. Eustaco flew to- Vlox. . Gear was retired In the seventh from Real to Lyons. Slaglo flew to Burnett and Mc- Cavluy - gathered In Connnughton's foul. The Omahans went out one , two , three. Griffin failed to connect with Gear's curves. Roat flew out to Slagle and Lyons went out from Williams to O'Hagan.Neither McVlcker nor Wilson was given a view of the firs bag in the eighth. Griffin bandied O'Hagan'a drive clumsily , but Burnett killed Williams lly. Gear assisted In disposing of Burnett McCauley fanned. Connaughton juggled Holltngsworth's liner , but FrUbeo made a beautiful catch of what Ilagerman Intcndei for a double- .Frlsbco . bunted prettily. Vlox sacrificed Gear ( lew to Burnett , and Slagle to Holllngs- wortb. - . Stuff was off. The score : KANSAS CITY.- AB. . .

CHICAGO , May 12.Graln elevator "D"- elonglng to the Chicago , Burlington & Jutncy elevator system , was destroyed by Ore this afternoon. Losa on building and ontcnts will aggregate about Jl200000. The elevator contained 1,116,000 bushels of grain valued nt $580,000 , the property of P.- J. . . AriLour. The groin was fully Insured.- At . 1:30 : p m. the flro seemed to get beyond onlrol , and was spreading rapidly Into the umber district. The elevator stood at Lumber and Brown streets on the west bank of the Chicago river , near the' Twenty-second street lumber Hatrlct. It was used as n grain warehouse : y V. D. Armour and had a capacity of 2,600,000 bushels. The cupola of the eleva- tor ¬ fell In within an hour after the flames wcro discovered and after that the fire de- partment ¬ rapidly lost control. Under the influence of a strong wind the flames be- gan ¬ to spread In every direction and seized on the huge piles of lumber In half a dozen lumber yards within a few squares of the elevator. The Lord & Uushncll Lumber company was the first concern whose prop- erty ¬ was set flro to from the elevator. The lumber yard of D. S. Tate & Co. was next destioycd and forty freight cars on the side- tracks were consumed with their contents of finished lumber. The yard of Arthur Gourley & Co. caught fire , but quick work on the part of the firemen headed off the flames In this direction. Francis Beldler & Co.'s yards , adjoining the .Gourley properly , caught next and befoie the fire department steamers on the river could reach the Beld- ler ¬ plant It was entirely destroyed. The fire was n most exciting one. Rail- road ¬ employes , with a bravery approaching recklessness , took switch engines in on the side tracks leading betv.een the blazing umber plies , and coupling to standing 5 eight cars , dragged them , blazing , from : he heart of the conflagration. The flam- ing ¬ trains , as soon as they were outsldo of the lumber yards , were deluged by fire en- gines ¬ stationed for that purpose. This work was prosecuted by the railroad men until the heat from the lumber piles caused the rails to curl , pulling the spikes from the ties and bending the tracks. The gravest apprehensions as tbo fire spread were entertained for the great gas tanks of the People's Gas , Light and Coke company. The firemen realized that these were very dangerous and that n single spark might cause an explosion , frightful in Its consequences. A strong patrol of firemen , with two engines and a' quantity of other apparatus , was detaHctl , for duty In the vicinity of the gas resorvolra.- At . 1:45 : p. m. the fin ; was still burning In the lumber yards , but the losses were con- fined ¬ to the yards named , and the fire de- partment ¬ officials belli'ved they had the flames under control , a I There was nn ex- plosion ¬ of grain dust In elevator D , be- longing ¬ to the Chicago , Burlington & Qulncy railway , h| wrecked the Interior before the flames had made much progrcsa. The grain handlers at 'work In the elevators were compelled to islidp down the chutes used for loading graiu.t4nto the cars and all ot-them escaped uninjured. Elevator D , which ,was used by P. D % Armour as a storehouse , contained 1,115,009 bushels of grain as follows : 100,000 bushels ot wheat , 625,000 bushels of corn , 200,000 bushels of oats , 150,000 bushels of flax and 40,000 bushels of rye. .Armour's loss on the grain will foot up $ SOO,000 ; fully Insured. The elevator was valued at $285,000 , and was also fully Insured.- At . 2 p. m. , although the fire was said to- bo practically under control , there were four acres of lumber piles still burning. Dennis S weenie , the veteran chief of the flro department , was seriously Injured. His face was severely burned , his beard being completely singed oil. William Matheison , engineer of the eleva- tor ¬ , and his fireman , Denny O'Connor , are missing. i In the river slips tapping the lumber yard district there were many vessels which were In Imminent danger. The vessels were all small craft , however , and the Incipient fires which from time to time wore started In the rigging flamed up for a moment , only to be- otlnpiiishtd by streams from the fire ap- paratus ¬ on board or from the flro boats. A small army of tugs was hurried to the scene and wiis kept busy towing the vessels to- pl.iros of safety. It seemed certain at 2:30- o'clock : t.iat the firemen had the conflagra- tion ¬ under control and that there would bo- no further spread ot the flames. The losses are : Armour elevator D , owned by the Chicago , Burlington & Qulncy railroad , S1SO.OOO ; insurance for $150,000 ; Armouv & Co. , 657,000 bushels of corn , $243- 000 , - ; Armour & Co. and Joseph Letter , 110- 000 , - bushels of wheat , $187,000 ; Armour & Co. . 250,000 bushels of oats , $75,000 ; Armour 6 Co. , 30,000 bushels of rye , $21,000 ; Swan- ncll - Manufacturing company , Wright & Lawthor and the National LlnseeJ Oil com- pany ¬ , 160,000 bushels ot Haxsccd , $208,000 ; total , 914000. Francis Beldler & Co. sustained the heav- iest ¬ daroago fiom burned lumber , losing " , ,000,000 feet , valued nt 50000.

Glaciers arc rivers of Ice and like other rivers , some ot them arc small and some very large , writes Prof. El I aha Gray In the Times-Herald , They flow down the gorges from high mountains , whose peaks arc al- ways ¬ covered with a blanket of eternal snow. Summer and winter the snow la precipitated upon these mountains , and from time to time the heat from the sun's rays tend to soften the snow when by Its great weight It packa more closely together until It Is in many cases formed Into solid Ice cakes. If we take a quantity of snow or a quantity ot granulated Ice and put It under a sufficient pressure wo can produce clear solid Ice , and It Is by this process that Ice Is formed out of the snow and hall that falls continually upon the tops of theac glacial mountains. We huvo seen In a former chapter that Ice possesses certain vl.icnous or seml-fluldlc properties and that It will yield to pressure , but If we put It under tenslonal strain It snaps llko glass or any other bridle substance. As the snows upon these mountains pile up higher and higher the pressure becomes greater and greater until It reaches n point where It begins to move gradually down the moun- tain ¬ side , following the gulches and de- files ¬ that furnish a path of least resistance to Its flow. At the sides and bottom where It Is in contact with the earth the move- ment ¬ is slower than It Is nt the the sur co and In the middle of the Ice stream. If here wcro no curves In the ravine or gulch thiough which It flows the point of greatest movement would be confined to the middle of Its width. But In flowing through n winding gulch the most rapid flow follows the lined of greatest procure , and this line Is deflected from side to side , so that the line of great- est ¬ flow Is more winding than Is the bottom of the volley through which It flows. If- .ho bottom and sides of the valley were straight the surface of the Ice be comparatively even , I say comparatively , as compared with a smooth surface It would very rough ; wheat I mean to say , Is , Lhere would be no great crevasses or open- Ings - In the Ice , which sometimes ore very large and extend to a great depth. If In its downward flow the bottom of tbe ravlno suddenly becomes steeper the top of the Ice ts put under a tenslonal strain which causes It to break , which forms the crevasses be- fore ¬ mentioned. These points might be termed the rlflles In the Ice river.- If . at the bottom of the descent the valley curves upward or preserves the straight line for a considerable distance , these crevasses will close at the top and perhaps open at the bottom and the blocks or bowlders of tco will freeze together to such an extent that the water caused by the melting Ice will flow on top until It comes to another crevasse , where It runs through to the bottom or underflow , which Is always an attendant ot a glacier. The glacier continues Its flow down the mountain side until in some cases it reaches quite to the valley below and in others It stops short as the action of the sun Is so- gieat that it melts entirely away at this point as fast as It moves down. In the winter time , however , the glalcer may flow far dawn Into ( he valley and will accumulate greatly In bulk owing to the fact that the Ice forms from the precipitation of snow faster than It melts away underneath. If It wore not for the fact that In summer the glaciers molt faster than they form the whole valley would In time become n great river of- ice. . It Is the case In Switzerland that some years the accumulation is greater from snowfall than diminution is from melting.- It . this condition should continue It wouM become a serious matter.- In . the downward flow of a glacier there Is- an exhibition of wonderful power ; great bowlders are torn from their beds and cither ground to powder or carried down to the end of the glacier , to be dropped with the other debris that has been carried there by the same force , forming an accumulation that geologists call the moraine. Of these moraines we will speak more fully in a future chapter.- It . was the privilege of the writer some years since to visit the great glaciers of Switzerland and to some extent study their action. In one of our chapters on rivers the fact was mentioned that some ot them have their origin chiefly in melting glaciers. They start as Ice rivers and end In rivers of- water. . The effect during the great Ice age of some of these glacial rivers , which are now extinct * Hie very remarkable ; we will have occasion to refer to them when we como to treat of the glacial period. There is a glacial river flowing which Is fed largely by the great Rhone glacier In- Switzerland. . The water from this river Is almost as white as milk , which Is occasioned by the grinding action of the great Ice blocks on the rock as It flows down , the sides of the mountain. These glacial rivers are much higher in summer , of course , thin In winter , come ot them having not only an annual fluctuation , but a diurnal one. The former Is caused by the cold ot winter , and the latter because It freezes to some extent nt night anil checks the flow of water. The differ- ence ¬ between day and night In these high altitudes Is very marked. While It Is ex- tremely ¬ hot In the sun , it Is cool the moment we step In the ahadc.- I . remember walking across one of the glaciers In the Alps , called the Mer de Glace , one clear clay In summer , when I suffered so much from the heat , although standing upon a tea of Ice , that It was necessary to carry an umbrella. In fact , there was a case ol sunstroke during my stay that occurred upon thia same glacier. This Intense heat during the day melts the surface of the Ice , which forms streams that run along on the top of a glacier until it comes to a crevasse or riffle In the Ice river , where It plunges down and becomes a part of the glacial stream that is flowing underneath the Ice. The speed at which these Ice streams flow vary greatly with the size of the glacier as to width and depth and the steepness ol the grade and many other conditions. In Its movement it is constantly bending and freezing and being torn asunder by ten ¬ slonal strain , yielding and liquifying at other points by pressure , only to freeze again when that pressure Is removed. This , taken In connection with the friction of the great Ice boulders , produces a movement that Is exceedingly complicated in its actions am Interactions. The glaciers of Switzerland are mere pig- mies ¬ when compared with some of those. In British Columbia and Alaska , to which wo will allude In a future chapter- .CourUlilli . of 8ildem.

KANSAS CITY , Mo. , May 12. ( SpecialTelegram. ) The Omaha Fishermen wontheir game In the first Inning today bybunching their hits. Omaha tapped Gear In-

a lively-fashion at the start ot the gnmc.The hlues trailed at the beginning' andnever overtook their opponents. Tho'gamowan a 'prelty exhibition. There were someglaring errors on both aides , but they werenot many.

Except In the first Gear pitched good ball-.I'a

FIflhcr , who twirled for his men , wasnlfio very much In the game , and , If any-thing

¬

, had a trifle the better of the pitch-ing

honors. Neither aide required a searchwarrant to locate the opposing pitcher , how ¬

ever.The DIucs started the game by doing

nothing. Manager Fisher Issued a pass toSingle and a wild pitch by the same magnatepermitted the little centerfloldcr to advanceto the second ottoman. Connaughton's flynestled In Kuslaco's in It. McVlckcr (lew outto Ilolllngsnorth , who connected with nus-tacc

-, and Slagle was thrown out on the play.

The visitors In the first time up proceededto plunk the leather with generous andvociferous plunks. Eustace Hew out to Con-

naiighton-

, but Orlflln bit safely Into the leftgarden. Vlox could not reach Iloat.'s drivenml Grlflln crossed to third. Lyons' longlilt Into right scored the two runners. Con-

naughton-

handled Uurnett's liner easily andMcCauley was retired at first , after Ilooncy-Vlox's hands had been wanned.

Wilson for the Dlucs hit nafely In the sec-

ond¬

, although Grlflln Intercepted his linerIn pretty fashion. O'Hagan flow out to-

Lyons. . Williams reached first on fielder'schoice , but Wilson died nt second. Burnettmisjudged Frlsbee's long fly , and the ballbounded BO close to the fence that the bats-man

¬

reached third , Williams scoring. Vloxwent out from Iloat to Lyons. WilliamsBothered In Holllngsworth's fly In the sec-

ond¬

half of the second. Hagcrman singledInto right. Vlox's fumble gave Fisher a life ,

but Kustacc and Grlflln flow out to Slaglo-

nud Frlsbee.Fisher toyed with Gear's easy grounder In

the third and the man In blue made first-.Slaglo

, but Eustace got away with McVlckcr'afast fly and doubled on Gear. Slagle gatheredIn Float's cloud chaser very prettily. Frls ¬

bee disposed of Lyons. Burnett's drive wasof a high temperature and by striking a rutin right field credited the batter with a-

triple. . McCauley retired the Fishermen byflying out to Wllllnmi.

CHICAGO , May 12.Graln elevator "D"-elonglng to the Chicago , Burlington &Jutncy elevator system , was destroyed by

Ore this afternoon. Losa on building andontcnts will aggregate about Jl200000.The elevator contained 1,116,000 bushels of

grain valued nt $580,000 , the property of P.-

J.

. AriLour. The groin was fully Insured.-At

.

1:30: p m. the flro seemed to get beyondonlrol , and was spreading rapidly Into theumber district.

The elevator stood at Lumber and Brownstreets on the west bank of the Chicagoriver , near the' Twenty-second street lumberHatrlct. It was used as n grain warehouse: y V. D. Armour and had a capacity of2,600,000 bushels. The cupola of the eleva-tor

¬

fell In within an hour after the flameswcro discovered and after that the fire de-

partment¬

rapidly lost control. Under theinfluence of a strong wind the flames be-

gan¬

to spread In every direction and seizedon the huge piles of lumber In half a dozenlumber yards within a few squares of theelevator. The Lord & Uushncll Lumbercompany was the first concern whose prop-erty

¬

was set flro to from the elevator. Thelumber yard of D. S. Tate & Co. was nextdestioycd and forty freight cars on the side-tracks were consumed with their contentsof finished lumber. The yard of ArthurGourley & Co. caught fire , but quick workon the part of the firemen headed off theflames In this direction. Francis Beldler &Co.'s yards , adjoining the .Gourley properly ,

caught next and befoie the fire departmentsteamers on the river could reach the Beld-ler

¬

plant It was entirely destroyed.The fire was n most exciting one. Rail-

road¬

employes , with a bravery approachingrecklessness , took switch engines in on theside tracks leading betv.een the blazingumber plies , and coupling to standing5 eight cars , dragged them , blazing , from: he heart of the conflagration. The flam-ing

¬

trains , as soon as they were outsldo ofthe lumber yards , were deluged by fire en-gines

stationed for that purpose. Thiswork was prosecuted by the railroad menuntil the heat from the lumber piles causedthe rails to curl , pulling the spikes fromthe ties and bending the tracks.

The gravest apprehensions as tbo firespread were entertained for the great gastanks of the People's Gas , Light and Cokecompany. The firemen realized that thesewere very dangerous and that n single sparkmight cause an explosion , frightful in Itsconsequences. A strong patrol of firemen ,

with two engines and a' quantity of otherapparatus , was detaHctl , for duty In thevicinity of the gas resorvolra.-

At.

2 p. m. , although the fire was said to-bo practically under control , there werefour acres of lumber piles still burning.

In the river slips tapping the lumber yarddistrict there were many vessels which wereIn Imminent danger. The vessels were allsmall craft , however , and the Incipient fireswhich from time to time wore started In therigging flamed up for a moment , only to be-

FORMATION OF GLACIERS.

Complicated Morrmrndi and Trrmvn-d

-n * force Kxrrtcil.

Glaciers arc rivers of Ice and like otherrivers , some ot them arc small and somevery large , writes Prof. El I aha Gray In theTimes-Herald , They flow down the gorgesfrom high mountains , whose peaks arc al-ways

¬

covered with a blanket of eternalsnow. Summer and winter the snow laprecipitated upon these mountains , andfrom time to time the heat from the sun'srays tend to soften the snow when by Itsgreat weight It packa more closely togetheruntil It Is in many cases formed Into solidIce cakes. If we take a quantity of snowor a quantity ot granulated Ice and put Itunder a sufficient pressure wo can produceclear solid Ice , and It Is by this processthat Ice Is formed out of the snow and hallthat falls continually upon the tops of theacglacial mountains. We huvo seen In aformer chapter that Ice possesses certainvl.icnous or seml-fluldlc properties and thatIt will yield to pressure , but If we put Itunder tenslonal strain It snaps llko glassor any other bridle substance. As thesnows upon these mountains pile up higherand higher the pressure becomes greaterand greater until It reaches n point whereIt begins to move gradually down the moun-tain

¬

side , following the gulches and de-files

¬

that furnish a path of least resistanceto Its flow. At the sides and bottom whereIt Is in contact with the earth the move-ment

¬

is slower than It Is nt the the sur coand In the middle of the Ice stream. Ifhere wcro no curves In the ravine or gulch

thiough which It flows the point of greatestmovement would be confined to the middleof Its width.

But In flowing through n winding gulchthe most rapid flow follows the lined ofgreatest procure , and this line Is deflectedfrom side to side , so that the line of great-est

¬

flow Is more winding than Is the bottomof the volley through which It flows. If-

.ho bottom and sides of the valley werestraight the surface of the Ice becomparatively even , I say comparatively , ascompared with a smooth surface It would

very rough ; wheat I mean to say , Is ,

Lhere would be no great crevasses or open-Ings

-

In the Ice , which sometimes ore verylarge and extend to a great depth. If Inits downward flow the bottom of tbe ravlnosuddenly becomes steeper the top of the Icets put under a tenslonal strain which causesIt to break , which forms the crevasses be-

fore¬

mentioned. These points might betermed the rlflles In the Ice river.-

If.

at the bottom of the descent the valleycurves upward or preserves the straight linefor a considerable distance , these crevasseswill close at the top and perhaps open at thebottom and the blocks or bowlders of tco willfreeze together to such an extent that thewater caused by the melting Ice will flow ontop until It comes to another crevasse , whereIt runs through to the bottom or underflow ,

which Is always an attendant ot a glacier.The glacier continues Its flow down the

mountain side until in some cases it reachesquite to the valley below and in others Itstops short as the action of the sun Is so-

gieat that it melts entirely away at thispoint as fast as It moves down. In thewinter time , however , the glalcer may flowfar dawn Into (he valley and will accumulategreatly In bulk owing to the fact that theIce forms from the precipitation of snowfaster than It melts away underneath. If Itwore not for the fact that In summer theglaciers molt faster than they form the wholevalley would In time become n great river of-

ice. . It Is the case In Switzerland that someyears the accumulation is greater fromsnowfall than diminution is from melting.-It

.

this condition should continue It wouMbecome a serious matter.-

In.

the downward flow of a glacier there Is-

an exhibition of wonderful power ; greatbowlders are torn from their beds and citherground to powder or carried down to the endof the glacier , to be dropped with the otherdebris that has been carried there by thesame force , forming an accumulation thatgeologists call the moraine. Of thesemoraines we will speak more fully in afuture chapter.-

It.

was the privilege of the writer someyears since to visit the great glaciers ofSwitzerland and to some extent study theiraction. In one of our chapters on riversthe fact was mentioned that some ot themhave their origin chiefly in melting glaciers.They start as Ice rivers and end In rivers of-

water. . The effect during the great Ice ageof some of these glacial rivers , which arenow extinct * Hie very remarkable ; we willhave occasion to refer to them when wecomo to treat of the glacial period.

There is a glacial river flowing which Isfed largely by the great Rhone glacier In-

Switzerland. . The water from this river Isalmost as white as milk , which Is occasionedby the grinding action of the great Ice blockson the rock as It flows down , the sides of themountain. These glacial rivers are muchhigher in summer , of course , thin In winter ,

come ot them having not only an annualfluctuation , but a diurnal one. The former Iscaused by the cold ot winter , and the latterbecause It freezes to some extent nt nightanil checks the flow of water. The differ-ence

¬

between day and night In these highaltitudes Is very marked. While It Is ex-

tremely¬

hot In the sun , it Is cool the momentwe step In the ahadc.-

I.

remember walking across one of theglaciers In the Alps , called the Mer de Glace ,

one clear clay In summer , when I suffered somuch from the heat , although standing upona tea of Ice , that It was necessary to carryan umbrella. In fact , there was a case ol

sunstroke during my stay that occurredupon thia same glacier. This Intense heatduring the day melts the surface of theIce , which forms streams that run along onthe top of a glacier until it comes to acrevasse or riffle In the Ice river , where Itplunges down and becomes a part of theglacial stream that is flowing underneaththe Ice.

The speed at which these Ice streamsflow vary greatly with the size of the glacieras to width and depth and the steepness ol

the grade and many other conditions. In Itsmovement it is constantly bending andfreezing and being torn asunder by ten ¬

slonal strain , yielding and liquifying atother points by pressure , only to freeze againwhen that pressure Is removed. This , takenIn connection with the friction of the greatIce boulders , produces a movement that Isexceedingly complicated in its actions amInteractions.

The glaciers of Switzerland are mere pig-

mies¬

when compared with some of those. In

British Columbia and Alaska , to which wo

will allude In a future chapter-
