Cavill was seized with cramps when six laps from the finish and withdrew, McCusker swimming the re- mainder of the distance alone.

Both furnished stirring struggles and more than the usual amount of excite- ment. David Garrick, at the liberal price of 20 to 1, won the annual Champlon, beating the odds-on favorite. Ethelbert, & neck in a hard dri while Duoro was third, only a neck away. The time, 3:56, was fast, and constitutes a new track record, the old mark of 3:38 having stood since’ 183 made indoo, with 100 pounds up. Unfortunately the result of the race left an unsavory feeling, as Spencer’s ride on Ethelbert was so bad that it looked almost criniinal. He appeared to be in a trance and only woke up when too late to win with the favorite. It is hard to detract from the credit due David Garrick and Bullman, but good judges all agree that the best horse did not win. Jack Joynor trains both David Garrick and Ethelbert, and there was much unfavorable comment after the race. Track fast; weather clear.

All were very tired trying to keep up and Pinochle was gamest at the end, coming strong and beating out Found by a head. Florizar could never get up and was in fourth place at the finish. Hattie June, a 200 to 1 shot, in the second race acted so badly at the post that the start was delayed twenty-three minutes. The filly refused to budge after parading past the grand stand and Jockey Moecdy was forced to lead his mount to the start- ing point, At every false break she would run a furlong and then had to be led back. After the long delay they were finally sent away and it resuited in strict- ly a iwo-horse race between Jiminez and uelist, first and second choices.

WHEN EARTL. GETS HUNGRY.| Chunks of the World May Be Eaten Up Any ment. : | When one reads ophears of some sud- | den and violent alteration in the crust of | this planet of ours one Instinctively puts it down to something in the way of a vol- canfc outburst. In most cases it is so. But not always. Mother Earth has many fashions of building up what she likes and | getting rid of what she 1s tired of. One hardly wonders that Indian tribes | who_frequented the shores of the Colum- bia River used to worship as the “All-de- vouring One’” a great cliff near the Cas- | cades; which for many years past has been steadily advancing upon the river, with the evident intention of blotting out its bed and forming a huge lake above. This will inevitably 'happen. The mountain, | which is 2000 feet high and eight miles | long, has been proved to be moving for- ward and downward at a rate of one to | three feet a year. The railway track | which runs along its base has to be con- stantly altered. The reason of this pon- derous landslide is that the mountain rests on a layer of soft sandstone, which is _steadily giving way. The viliage of Sainte Foy de Tarentalse in Eastern France seems doomed to be : The base of the hill on which it stands I8 being eaten away by the rapld waters of the Isere. The houses, some of them, show cracks rivaling those of our Cheshire Northwich. Some day there will be a “short, sharp shock™ and Tarentaise will no longer exist. Islands go and come so constantly that none butthe admiralty keep count of them. Submarine volcanoes are responsi- ble for most of these disappearances, but others are harder to accoynt for. Metis Island, for instance, in the South Pacific, bore 1o sign of voleanic action about it. It was charted in 1880. its highest point being 130 feet. Last vear it had gone— vanished utterly without leaving a trace. On the site of another small guano island off the coast of Southern_California re- cent soundings showed 50 fathoms of water. Tangler Island in Chesapeake Bay was fortified by our fleet in the war of 1812. It has sunk steadily, till now those fortifications are under water. The shifting sands of the great desert are as hungry as the pitiless sea {tself. Many of the smaller oases in the Sahara have disappeared from sight in an heur or_two, buried deep by the deadly simoom. Some 400 miles southeast of the old city of Kashgar, far out in the yellow desola- tion of the desert of Gobl, the great Swed- ish explorer Sven Hedin saw something projecting from the smooth side of one of the long dunes. It was the wooden roof of a house. Further investigation showed that it was but one of thousands. A teem- ing city of highly clvilized Aryans had lnn‘F existed on this spot until the earth had tired of it and_ wiped It out. Until December 13, 1811, the eastern part of Crailghead County, Ark., was one of | tha most beautiful and fertile stretches | of prairie imaginable. interspersed with tracts of lovely woodland. Pretty rivers | ran between high clay banks, and the | country was ranidly _settling. On {he morning of December 19, in place of riv- ers and rolling prairie, a great lake rippled in the sunlight. In the night the whole region, 120 miles long and sixty wide, had sunk twenty to forty feet. }i'o-day the weird lakes of the Arkansas sunk lands offer the most beautiful scenery and some f the best ort 1 glntes.
