"No, not exactly," snlil tho senator.
"You see, Ferguson stumbled ncd

the rock at freezing point and Imino
dlnlnly begins to boll from thu fierce

"Of course, of course," sulci the bore.
"And what happened lo.l'"eruon? Did

"Ferguson fell In." said tho senator,
"but bo uiiiiiiiged to seramblo out

yet over for him. Our Arizona olr, you

for protection during the wnr. baa been
brought to light again. Tho atatue.
which wae rust during the reign of the
monarch, according to rcporta hna not
enjoyed the uneventful career per
mitted to most works of lta kind. It
wna executed for Kir Itlchard Weston,
afterward earl of' Portland, who In
tended to placo It ns an ornament In
Ills garden at Itochnmpton. Hut this
funcllon It never fulfilled, for It was
seized by parliament during tho Civil
wnr and sold to ono John ltlvett. a
brazier, to he broken up. John, how
ever, being n royalist, hid tho stutua.
and, by si-lllng hundred of bronze
knife handles purporting to bo made
from It. disarmed any parliamentary
suspicions In the matter. On the res
toration of Charles II !n lOCO ltlvett
produced tb" statue, which wna
claimed by Kir Itlchard'a son. The
brnzler refused to yield It, and after
years of dlspuio It was eventually pre
sented to King Charles II and erected
on the aimt formerly covered by the
original Charing cross.
Anuretio "8helf Ice."
From tho work of recent explora
tions. Sir Iouglua Maw son concludes
that the rock foundation on which the
Antarctic Ice clip rests Is very Irregu
lar, partly above sea level and partly
below, and thut Ita thickness, which la
very variable, may reach ft mnxlmum
of leverul thousand feet. Under the
thickest portions the static pressure at
the base may bo as great aa one ton
per square Inch. Under auch a cover
ing there may be a considerable accu
mulation of ground heat, and It Is as
sumed Hint the under portion of the Ice
mass la undoubtedly aoft and plaatlc.
Where the sen breaks up the Ice nt a
rate faster than tho How, tho sea front
la substantially tho coast line. But
elsewhere, as In the (Ireat Itnss barrier
mid tho Shiicklelon shelf, tho supply
of Ice exceeds the rato of erosion nt
the sen front, mid the overflow from
tho hind' maintains a thick sheet of
"shelf Ico" extending far cut to sen.
Tho sou front of the Ico cap. nt the
present rate of advance or llowlng out,
Is estimated to have loft tho center In

Flreprcoflng Concrete Columns.
Wo have boon wont to look upon
concrete us mpuhlc of resisting a great

The bureau of standards hns been In

creto la mado wllh gravel, particularly
siliceous gravel, there Is n tendency
for tho stones to burst In extreme

Accordingly It la recommended thnt

but If ImposHlhlo tho grnvol concreto
may bo protected from extreme heat
by coating It with an Inch of cement

may also bo used In which asbestos Is

Such an underworld of crooka and

of n Gladys Hrockwell photoplay,

ture, a William Fox production, tolls
a powerful story of a woman crook
who battles ngulnBt temptation and
forsukes hor life of crimo. She brings
with hor out of the underworld a

one of the most appealing that ever
reflected life In the slums.
Sessue Hayakawa appears at the
Grand Theater Sunday night only In

he hnd a single redeeming character
istic he paid his dobta as he collect

paid a life for a life. The play Is
singularly striking.

work on her screen career in the
film version of that famous Robert

Theater next Tuesday and Wednes
day began to dance almost as soon
as she began to work and her re
cord aa a dancer Is almost as great
as the one she holds undisputed as a
beauty whose ' physical perfections
have been Internationally acclaimed
by the world's greatest masters of
the brush.
Her first public appearance was
achieved in "Chin Chin" in which
she obtained a role, against her
parents', wishes and her success be
fore the public was so instantance
ous that she was quickly seised as
one of the bewildering bevy of girls
in the Ziegfleld Follies. After this,
to the popular success "O Boy!" she
lent such exceptional support that
film producers began to take notice
and to ejaculate "O Boy, what a
screen possibility!" As a result.
Miss Davies adventured forth. In
her first picture, which was well re
ceived. In "The Dark Star," Miss Davies
has a role of exceptional force,
that of a girl who is supposedly un
