He is a farmer on a large scale, one of Canada's rich men. His hobby is to make all North America a continent with very mild winters and less torrid summers. The plan has just been presented to the Qanpdisn Parliament. It involves tine did of thé United States as well. It is now in the hands of Frank E. Oliver, Minister of the Interior for the Dcminion of Canada. He has gone over it very carefully, and as proof oi his own conviction that it is pos- sible he has communicated the de- tails to several scientists of worldwide fame with a request for an opinion. Gets Encouragement in Scheme. Lord Kelvin has been consulted and will report later. Minister Oliver has communicated with Mr. McLennan, informing him that he may be en- ccuraged in his scheme and asking for more particulars. Once upon a time, as geology plain- ly proves, North America enjoyed as baimy a climate as there was in the world. The remains of mammoths and trees and semitropic shrubbery are to be found all along the edge of the Arctic circle and in northern Siberia. The great flood of Noah's time un- did all this. It made North America a land of bleak winters and scorching summers. It blocked up the channel to the Arctic and kept the warm wa- ters of the Atlantic from laving those ice locked northern shores. All this and more has been Mr. McLennan's life study. He speaks about it frankly. His ar guments seem unanswerable. As he talked about his plan with a writer to the World Magazine he grew enthu- siastic. "Now, what caused the mild winter in which these fossil trees once lived?" he asked, and he answered the i himself question e "Und ," he said, "it was caused by a greater stretch of open ocean to the north than now exists. Lebrador is in the same latitude as tre British Isles, the south of Green- land corresponds in this particular to Nerway and Newfoundland to the north of France. Were it not for the modifying influences of this great stretch of open ocean the winters in Europe would be of Arctic severity. "What caused the once open ocean to the north of Canada to be turned into an icefield? Beyond doubt the fact that the great ocean current which at one time flowed from the Atlantic into the Arctic became im- peded by some barrier. "It is a scientific fact which you eo: verify by consulting any geo- grapher that in the bed of the Atlan- ti2 there is a channel on the east side extending from south of the equator ncrithward and 'passing between the Faroe and Shetland Islands at a depth of 670 fathoms. This passage is about 35) miles wide and I believe that it is through this channel that the current ketween the Atlantic and Arctic oceans formerly flowed. "Now, precise scientific calculations wil! show you that a current flowing through this channel at the rate of four miles an hour and at a tempers: ture ten degrees above freezing point vould allow of sufficient water to pass tlhough to melt 1,000 cubic miles of ice a day. "That is to say, in four or five years this would melt all the ice in the Arctic Ocean, and Canada, from be- ing-a country of rigorous winters, would become almost semi-tropical, and all the land which stretches in such vast areas to the north of us would share in that climate and be- come habitable." "My proposition," he went on, "is to petition the British Government and to get it to approach the United States Government also with the ob- weet of detaching a section of the fieets of both Powers to undertake the work after the several countries in- terested have given pledges and such securities as may be considered ade: quate. "If the icefield of the Arctic be stranded on one large island or on two Small ones, . besides coming arcainst the north of Greenland, I weuld propose to break up the ice by starting in to work at the east of Greenland and then proceeding north and west. The work could also be commenced at the head of Davis Strait and Behring Strait. "The work of breaking up the ice could, I belieys, be done by shooting great tol the ice, so fix- ed that they would explode at a con- siderable distance. Ice floating on the surface, af th¥"ice in the Arctic Ocean does, would be very easy to break up, as experiments have, proved. ; "And once broken up, the ice east Cheapest Place in King- 'ston for 'Boots and Clothing Is at the foot 'of Princess Street, Having received a big lot of Men's Tweed Working Pants, 1 will sell them at the low price of 95c. per pair.

How an Earl Won a Bride, The '"'ashes" were not the only tro- phy Lord Darnley brought back in triumph from Aus He brought back a bride as well. Af one of the cricket matches the tall young Eng- lishman lost his handkerchief, and the day being extremely hot, enquired of his friends if any one of them had a spare handkerchief that he might oan. Immediately a very feminine 'ker- chief, sweet scented and of delicate fabric, was handed to him from some invisible source. It was a most ac- ceptable convenience that -hot day, and after the match he expressed his desire to thank the kindly lady. An introduction to Miss Florence Mur- phy followed. She was the daughter of a Victoria magistrate and a mem- ber of Sir W. J. Clarke's household as governess to the younger children. The acquaintance so romantically commenced ripened under the kindly chaperonage of Lady Clarke, an en- gagement following which stood the test of a long abéence in England af- ter the cricketing tour. Then the faithful swain, who is now a repre sentative Irish peer, returned to Aus- tralia, claimed his bride, and bore her off in triumph.--Tit-Bits. Hides In a Chimney. An amusing story of a bookmaker's device to escape arrest was told at Liverpool, when John Cain, aged 28, was remanded, charged with keeping a betting house.

When he say the officers he ran in and fastened the door, hav- ing previously let a bullterrier loose iously disappeared patient Search he us {ound chimney of , upper room.
