Rather, it is geological formation | that makes .Elias grow. The St.) Elias’ mountains were formed by the! earth's uplift involving. folding and faylting. Mount St. Elias is still) actively growing, growth being. ac- complished by movements of the earth along a series of fault lines. Through these, the mountain block is being uplifted. tarthquakes are the “growing pains” of the mountain’s growth. In addition to sending the penk closer to the sky, these temblors have also, made many changes in the Yakutat| district. “Growing Paink” The last big growth recorded for Mount St. Elias occurred late in 1499. A cataclysmic unheaval shook t wide area in southeastern Alaska. It-apparently centered in the Yaku-| tat region. The few whites and the natives who were fishing there at the time, declare the earthquake shocks, of unusual violence, contin- ued for 17 days. And Mount a gesult, L innermost recesses about. On the shore of Disenchantment Bay closest to Mount St. Elias, the heach was raised from seven to 47 feet. On the opposite side, there was a corresponding depression, In the hay, two reefs appenred. High above the reach of the pres- ent highest waves, the west shore shows rock benches, caves, pebbles arid other evidences of seawater ac- tivities, Scattered through these are the remains of marine life, left high and dry by the upheavals. Barnacles and mussel shells are found many feet from the water, still clinging to ledges. Marine growths always be- low low tide level are also out of the water, while there are several lines of driftwood, etc, some dis- tance apart, each marking a former water level. Sunk Elsewhere Compensating for this rise is the depression eyewhere, As a result, a forest formerly bordering the shore line is now in tXe water. Waves running through the trees are begin- ning to kill the trees. The U, S. Geological Survey, which4 sent a party of scientists to study Elias grew talfer as Yakutat Bay's were changed the phenomenon, found unquestion- able evidence of the mountain’s| «rowth, In the course of a few hundred avons, Mount St. Elias, at this rate, ought to.be a real siauble little hummock — while Disenchantment Bay may be moved from Alaska to Panama, - BIG OUTPUT “1S REPORTED BY STATE MILL Geand Forks, N.-D., Dec, 28,—Mill products to the value of. $2,564,151.70 were shipped out by the North Da- kétg state mill, here during the four months from Aug. 1 to Nov. 30, last, ding to o report by C.
