The Appeal

A Sinking Island VOL. 18. NO. 32. TRANGS things are taking place in the coast of the coast of Los Angeles, an island, one of the best known of the American islands of the Pacific, slowly shaking into the sea, and San Clemente, miles further out to sea, is rising out of the depths. Likewise San Pedro hill on the island is attaining a greater elevation. The residents of Santa Catalina and San Clemente have long been partially conscious certain changes were taking place that it has not impressed them to any great extent. If the tides roll a little further up the beach or the waves dash a little further, they have imagined last, they have imagined that they imagined it and have let it go at that. A recent investigation by scientific men at the University of California closed the fact that the Island of Santa Catalina lies 270 feet lower than it did some years ago. Then this smiling is becoming more of the coast or of any considerable section of country is proven by the fact of the elevation of the mainland, twenty miles west of the island of San Clemente, twenty miles westward. There is interesting history, connected with the two islands that lie in the Pacific. Being mountainous, they are available from the mainland, save when the mists rise, temporarily over them like an obscuring tide. Fanciful tourist once said, like fragments of the Coast Range floating out to sea, when the islands were in California, the peaks of the islands attracted their attention and sohe adventures and began the raising of ships and goats threen. The wild goats and sheep the descendants of those fleeces. Those early herders had to tight for possession of the lands for they found them occupying the islands, Indians, a warlike tribe distinguished by their skill in the building of boats. The adventures of those caretakers would column their stories. the fifth in the series. This island has never grown more white than the white man in all the places then forty thousand over and above, and has grown upon its waterless lake. Not an inning (seemingly, for man or beast) and yet for years thousand of acreage grazed upon its waterless lake. Los Angeles, was a resident of the second thirty-five years ago. He lived there alone ten years, with but the compounded amount of acreage and acted as watchman at 14,000 sheep which ran wild over the island and thereby lower rains during the summer in San Clemente, but in the winter season the rain falls at intervals, and in a naturally occurring rainfall several thousand gallons of water are stored. This served as the water supply for Workman, his mule and dog, dews deposited upon one colony. This, in turn, dews the mule's mails thrived and waxed fat. Those sheep were as wild as deer, and when ever old mails thrived they could not to stalk the stock so he would any other game and shoot his meat from a distance.

And what of the seismic disturbances and the changes that are in progress at these islands? Will Santa Catalina contain earthquakes? Will Santa Catalina roll over her highest peaks? It is not impossible. Plenty of instances are cited to pose a threat might be the case, and the island. For instance, daily rose out of the sea, sank again behind the waves. Onus island, five miles from the mouth of the Targergy river the island of Midah, ten miles from the coast of Java, were swallowed up in the Targergy river and out of sight in 1623. Twenty-five thousand acres of land just outside of Port Jamaica, subsided into the sea. A point of land seasick by the Targergy river was prepared off the cost of Calli in 1834. Part of the coast of Peru near Cailas subsided in 1798. The eastern coast of South America, the western coast of Venezuela to the straits of Magellan & Ribeira.

And they are expensive—nearly 2 cents per mouse whisker, and the flies making the mouse whiskers than at the same "gnat" dressed in jinglecock hackles, look much like them. These flies are the finest-fingered business in the world, and it is not one man or woman out of 5,000 who can learn to tie flies.

HE scheme of attacking the north pole by means of a submarine that is already ready been elaborated by sev- novelist or literary purveyor HE scheme of attacking the North pole by means of a submarine boat, which is required by several novelists for literary purposes, is now to receive a practical trial at the hands of an experienced, explorer-Herr Anschatz-Kampe of Munich. Herr Kampe has devoted the work of his career to special problems involved in this very dangerous undertaking and is now having constructed at Wilhelmshaven a submarine vessel with which he confidently ex- The main features affecting the practicability of the scheme are: The extent of the separate ice fields in the Polar Sea, the extent of the ice patches in the ice reaches. From extensive study and personal observation Herr Anschatz Kampfe has arrived at the conclusion that the average maximum depth of the ice pack may be taken to be eight feet, the maximum depth of the sixteen to twenty feet. Land ice in the form of icebergs may, he thinks, owing to its virtual absence from the seas' question, be left out of consideration> While our present knowledge of the depths attained by the polar basin justifies the use of icebergs to anywhere near the surface of the ocean are not to be expected. The proposed vessel will be able to descend to a depth of 160 feet, at which point it will, of course, be entirely removed from the influence of cold, storms and ice pressure, the three most formidable of which with the which the explorer has to cope. The length of time during which the vessel will be able to remain below the surface is calculated at a maximum of fifteen minutes. The three knots allows her to cover a distance of some fifty miles, whereas the combined experience of Arctic explorers indicates that continuous fields of ice pay never more than three knots. In the improbable case of no opening being met with within the fifteen hours there remains the possibility of opening a way to the surface by blast or water, and the manoeuvre indicated "without possibility of mistake" by the help of the manometer. The risk of injury by collision will be minimized not only by the slow rate of motion but also by the new ship, on account of the high pressure she will be subjected to by the water. Her form will be that of an ellipsoid of 70 feet, and a breadth of 28 feet, giving a displacement of about 800 tons. To avoid rolling the center of gravity will be placed as low as possible. The capacity which allows sufficient air for the machine is sufficient air for five hours—the carbonic acid gas being continuously removed by the use of caustic soda, and possibly a supply of highly compressed oxygen being also carried. Propulsion will be effected by horizontal and vertical screws, the former of forty, the latter of five horse power. The engine will be driven through a 220-volt accumulator. One hundred and fifty tons of petroleum will be carried—a quantity more than ten times that needed for the 100-mile voyage, and the boat will be driven which, or rather to the edge of the ice, the submarine boat will be towed. On arrival at the pack the direction of the boat will be changed by compass, and the boat being compressed will be steered for it. If after an hour or two the light shows that there is water overhead, the vertical screw of the own boat and the boat will rise of its own buoyancy. The channel leading northward is found the voyage will be continued on the surface. If, on the other hand, no opening is made, the screw have clamped, an ascent to the water will be made and the vessel will be made and the vessel continues. HOUSE slowly, until by the reading of the monitor it is found that a thin place has been reached. Here attempts will be made by biasing to effect an opening, where a new direction is taken, sufficient to supply all fourteen hours. In case of complete failure deforese the way to the previous opening, where a new direction is taken, both of these assumptions according to Herr Anchats-Kampfe, first that of an uninterrupted ice field more than eleven-metrical miles in diameter, and second of one so continuously thick as to allow the disruption are entirely contradicted by all other spaces. The above scheme, while perhaps offering a fair chance of success, is obviously freight with great danger to the explorers. In the first place, while it is perhaps which present no clear water, ice spaces these spaces are often limited in extent, and less numerous as higher latitudes are reached, so that it seems very possible $2.40 PER YEAR. that many mikes might be traveled in such a vessel, passing many such breathing holes within a few thousand feet without ever actually coming under one of the mikes, and going back to the original opening in case no new one is found, the fact that the pack ice is constantly shifting its position, forming new water spaces and closing up old ones, might cause the entire disappearance of the original hole to go back to it. Another possibility which might seriously interfere with the scheme is that even if no land obstruction were found it may be that as the pole is approached the ice becomes a more compact, continuous and thicker covering, so that it can be accessed with the atmosphere. The very unpleasant result which would follow the permanent displacement of the vessel when submerged under an ice pack needs no enlargement. The danger of such a breakdown in a new and novel vessel, under conditions such as the possible results from its successful deployment they would be, hardly need to warrant the great risks which it necessarily entails.

There has been considerable criticism of the recently held Afro-American Council, but it has come from but two sources, neither of which is justly entitled to serious consideration. The dissatisfied ones are those who were not present and of course find fault because they had no finger in the pie, the other malcontents are those who were present but did not get through their schemes. The council was superior in many ways to any before it held. The papers presented were excellent, the audiences have never been surpassed in size and quality. The local features of the program were most excellent. The delegates were royally entertained by the citizens of St. Paul and Minneapolis in a social way and the reception and banquet at the close of the session was the grandest the members had ever seen, to use their own words. The entire expense for the transportation and entertainment of the officers and special speakers, and all expenses either directly or indirectly connected were paid by the local committee. All of the fees paid by the delegates went directly into and are still in the hands of the treasurer, and there is a balance of the money raised by the local THE FUNNY PLAY. € A A committee amounting to about $150 which will be turned into the council treasury.

George Dixon who might have retired from the ring as champion featherweight of the world, but did not have the wisdom to do so, has now been compelled to join the "hasbeens." He has gone to Europe to wind up his career as a fighter and on his return will go to Cleveland, Ohio, where he has been engaged as boxing instructor of the Black Bass Athletic Club. The former champion has had a notable career in the ring. He has been boxing since 1886, and is the hero of nearly 400 bouts. He held the featherweight title for almost twelve years, until it was wrested from him by Terry McGovern about three years ago. In his day Dixon has earned close to $250,000, but is practically penniless. He has been doing some fighting lately, but his form has deteriorated.

There is a current saying that "a sucker is born every minute," and, we are inclined to the belief that there is more truth than poetry in it.
