ITER nrin UU THRILLING EXPERICNCES OF A PARTY OF ECIENTIST3. ) Tlia StraiiK" Land of tlia Far Murtliwo.t II aa Many Intervaling Jreatufraa Lux uriant Vaeetatiou Wlitira Tl are la No Ice-KU Kllaa Suf Volcano. Mr. Israel C. Itnnsell has returned to Washington from that retfion of eternal ice and r,ow in AlaHka, where ths high est peak in North America Hues to an altitude of 10.IWO fee, from a glacier 1,000 aqnare miles in area and as big as all those of the Alps put together. Along the edg of th glacier, all the way from Icy liny to Yakntat bay, there ejtt!nlM ti fctrfp of green coast which in covered with luxuriant vegetation. Strawberry vini-s cover the gronnd for miles, and the verdant fields are red dened as fur as the eye can n-iich with luscious fruit, which compares favor ably in point of size and flavor with ths first grown in teuiperute bititmli-i'.. There are hnckleberrieii, too, and "sal mon berries," which are something be tween Mai klierries and raHpberries, but of giant nize, lncaHuring nearly two inches in diameter. All the lowlands are carpeted with violets, buttercups, yellow monkey flowers and ,'1'er wild bluhpniiis. Hero and there, in 1 J liiidxt of the vast ice fields, are th loveliest gardens watered by the melting snow. ) There are plenty of grizzly In'"' the vi ,i,i! y of Mount St. Elias, R.HHs.11 di'l not find them very ibu. .. oils. lie wiys that his encotinters with them remiiiil. il him of killing pigs. Of brown and black bears he saw and shot a great many. The expedition met with enough perils, however, to satisfy the must adventurous geographical explor ers. Nearly nil of the climbing had to lie done up steep walls of ice and snow by cutting steps. At almost any time a slip would have precipitated the party down the frozen precipices thousands of feet. On one iscasioii they were de scending when they found that an ava lanche had carried away the steps which they had made in going tip. The im promptu staircase was destroyed for 'M') feet, and they had to lower a man by a rope to chop out another, there being no other way of getting down. Such acci dents as this were not uncommon. IIAIKIlKRAimi KSCAI'KS. Avalanches were continually falling, rushing down the slopes with the speed of railway trains a:id with a roar like thunder that could be heard twenty miles away. One night abov.t 12 o'chs k tiie party was passing over 11 bad place in thd Agassiz glacier. Two men were in the lead, drawing a sled. .Suddenly they disappeared from sight, having fallen into a fi.-sure in the ice. Luckily they were caught upon a projecting ledge at the depth of about twenty feet, else they would never have ls'in si-en again. Tin y were hauled out with ropes. The next day in the same neighborhood Mr. Russell chanced to hsik Isdiind him and saw that the ice field over which he bad just passed was gone, h aving an enor mous hole of unknown depth. Another time one of his men tumbled Into a crev ice, and was only saved by the pack fastened to his shoulder, which Inter rupted his progress through a twist in the frozen tunnel that had yawned for him. The Agassiz glacier is one of the four great glaciers which, together with about a thousand small ones, flow out from the mountains at the north to the mighty Malaspina glacier, pouring their streams of ice continually into this vast frozen sea. This glacier of Malaspina, from 1,500 to 2,000 feet thick, is interesting, not merely IsK-ause of its enormous size, "but also by reason of the fact that it is the only one now in existence of the same type as the glacier which formerly covered all of this continent ai far south as Philadelphia anil St. Louis, leaving traces thst are visible to this day in scratches on the nx-ks, A (ILAITAL ItlVER. Where the land in that region is bare of ice the vegtttti"ll attains an almost tropical luxuriance, and the Arctic jungle are well nigh Impassable to the explorer. One of the chief obstacles en countered in threading them is a plant kuown as the "devil's club," which grows to a height of tell or fifteen feet, Its stems running along the ground for some dis tance and then turning upward. Every part of its surface, even to the ribs of the leaves, is thickly set with spines, which inflict painful wounds, and break ing off in the flesh cause festering sores. Iu the Lucia glacier occurs a most inter esting feature in the shape of a glacial river which comes out from a mountain through an archway of ice, flows for a mile and a half iu plain view, and then is lost to sight in another tunnel. Where the stream emerges finally is unknown. No explorer has as yet lsen Isild enough to enter the tunnel and drift through, after the fashion of Allan QunforuiaJu and Umslopogaas. The greatest risk in such an under taking wonld be from fall idg blocks of ice. At the mouth of the tunnel there are always confused noises and. rhythmic vibrations to be heard from the dark recesses within. The air is filled with pulsations liks deep organ notes, and it requires but little imagina tion to transform these strange sounds iuto the voices aud songs of inhabitants of the nether world. It used to be snp hx1 that Mount St. Ellas was a volcano, and sea captains sailing on the Pacific have often beheld what they imagined to be smoke li-suing from its summit; but this is a mistake, and it la probable that the alleged smoke was really ava lanche dust blown upward by the wind. Washington Cor. New York Sun. ' An Old Rib of Wood. In Galveston, in sinking an artesian well, which is now 2,010 feet in depth, gray and green clay, mixed with wood, lime concretions and pebbles, were fonnd at a depth of 1,510 feet. The age of thn wood is estlniatiHl at 200,000 years by Professor Kingley, and in the stratum, which is 106 feet iu thickness, be found reeds resembling apple aud hackberry seeds. Yankee lilade.

They wero en gaged ill hauling in fish, when suddenl) to the vijisst of them a huge head pokeil itself or.t of the water and ciSitemplateil the fishermen. This was thirty feetawav from tUeir boat. One 0 the men said it was not unlike the head of a pug dog but dark brown or black in color. Bulo the fishermen lost interest in their fish ing and fastened their attention on tht serpent. . ' At teriewing the fishermen for a few minuto-.he serpent moved toward then) some V . feet, and his entire body was seen ft the surface of the water., Ii was from fifteen to twenty feet long and moved slowly and eruily, in the nmniiei of a huge snake. It took a second view of the fishermen for a few seconds and then dived. The sight unnerved the fishermen at first, but they resolved to get a nearei look. They saw the serpent perhapt half a dozen times, but were unable U 'ecure a closer inspection of it. The story has Is.en corroborated v. lib . ...ore particulars by John Clark, a hoi -I proprietor, Theodore Clark, the big box manufacturer, and many others who have seen the serpent. These men say thn K-rpent is as thiii. its a do-j's body. Cor. liartford Couraiit. Gitnie ftnlon, In Maine Moos') are so very plentiful in north ern Maine that, as a sportsn.'an can legally kill but one in a season, it if something of a disappointment to throw away the only chance on an undersized or lean animal, or one with poor antlers. The boss hunter of Med way, Llewellyn Power, is a man who wastes no powdet on inferior game, and when he started aut after his annual moose the other day he was determined to get a good one. lie rolled his old slouch hat into a horn and called a misise to the water at Took wixkamos lake, but the bull did not suit, lieing too lean and carrying small an tlers. Another nud another came in rt ponse of the hunter's call, and finally tiio ideal monarch of the woods ap peared. This bull fell before Powers' rifle. He weighed ovi. a thousand pounds and carried a perfect set of antler that spread five feet. No fault tvui lie found with a hunting gro.uid which affords such opportunities as thin for taking one's pick of big game. Al most anylxsly can get a moose in the npper Penobscot region. The other day a twel .-c-yeif-old ly named Hathawaj went into the woods alone, called a big moose nnd dropped him at the first shot Louiavillo Courier Journal. A Publle UneL In the case of the trial for mnrder which is going on at Naples the deceased Vme time before his death fought a duel with a man who is now one of the pris oners. At the hearing the other day one of the witnesses, a government official, said that on the day of the dnel he went with others to meet the carriages com ing back, for "at Palermo every one knows everything, and the carriages re turned as if from a festival, and the peo ple waited to see them." The publio minister asked the witness how the news of the duel being about to tike place was known to the public. Witness: "First by the Mafia in fixing on the place and hour. I have never seen such a duel; people went as if to a feast, and every one knew of it. Per haps the circumstance that an ofilcer was fighting had some influence, and that therefore the authorities did not prevent it." London Nt-ws. A Lawyara Ilai-raat.
