GLACIAL AOL WEARS END. aror of Poalefou Fields 5 mm f Yaar. European engineers hare been con gratulating themselves that, although the coal mines may fail, they have in th Alpine glaciers inexhaustible sources of energy. 1 he melting of the srlacier ice gives rise to mountain tor rents whose fall is being utilized more and more, especially since the electric transmission of power has more nearly approached perfection. The glacier is thus a mine of stored energy and its ice has been somewhat poetically termed ""white coal," says Success. But if the researches of some recent French and German scientific men are to be relied on the glaciers may fail us some day, as well as the conl mines. It appears that the glaciers, not only of the Alps, but also of other continental mountain ranges, are shrinking, in some cases imperceptibly, and in oth ers almost visibly. Of courre this may be only one swing of the pendulum and continued observation may thaw that it will be followed in future years by a proportionate increase, so it may be well not to indulge in too dismal fore boding.
