WAS PARADISE AT THE NORTH POLE?
AN OLD THEORY REVIVED.
There was an animated discussion not long since over the question, "Is the Earth a globe?" and the fact, then revealad, that there are-parsons in this twentieth century capable of asserting with apparent seriosiness that our planet is flat, has emboldaned me (ays a writer Jo T. Pis Wukly) to ventilate another theory, mars novel, but certainly not more incredible, which has some eminent supporters both in Europe and America-the theory, namely, that

of Eden--the traditional cradle of the human
race.
The theory is not very old and has develop. ed curiously. There may possibly be persons still living who remember "Symmes's Hole," over which scientists and journalists alike used to make merry some seventy years ago,
The originator of "Symmes's Hole" was Cap tain John Cleves Symmes, of the United Staten Army, who maintained, and believed he could prove, that the earth is hollow and babitable *** within, that at each Pole there is an enormous bolo, probably from 2,000 to 4,000 miles in withth; that if this hole were explored it would be found to be an internal work far superior to the external in the beauty of its forms of life. Gleams from that wonderful inner world, he avered, are vouchsafed to us in the Aurora Boresis and other phenomena of polar light. And it is to the mouth of that hole that the beasts and birds whose winter migrations have bitberto puzzled zoologists, annually repair to biberoate, Symmes appealed to Sir Humphry

*
Davy and Baron Alexander von Humboldt to support him in his theory, and tried hard to raise sufficient funds to enable him to explore this wonderful hole; but scientists and funn. Keiers alike gave him the cold shoulder, and he worked himself to death in his desperate effort to convince the public that his hypothesis was

But though the scientific word laughed poor Symmes and his "hole" to scorn, it is a re markable fact that even so easinent a student of.cokomgony as flalley, the astronomer, be.. loved the earth to be hollow and possibly ; habitable in the interior by some race specially { Denbighshire, for Nagasaki. fitted for such Subterranean existence. | Andrea Rickmers, for Awatow. Whence, no doubt, Bulwer Lytton dérivad blu idea of "The Coming Race. Bir. John Leslie, too, the distinguished Scottish physi cian, chemist, and mathematician, beld a similar belief, but went considerably further than Halley, for he peopled the hollow sphere with plants and animals, and assigned it twa small subterranean planets, Pluto aud Proter- pine, to illuminate its darkness. It has been lof, however, to Professor W. F. Warren, late President of Boston University, U.8,4., to "go one better." His theory is that the Eden of primitiva tradition was situated at the North Pole in a country submerged at the time of the Deluge. And in his remarkable book, "Para- dise Found" he argues his case clearly and logically, and brings an immense amount of learning to support his thesis. It will be news
to most people, I suspect, to hear that the foremost geologists of the day hold the view that the first spot on our g’obe which possess. ed a temperature adapted to animal life was the Pole, where there undoubtedly existed, within
a comparatively recent geological period, a wide stretch of land, since sab merged, of which Nova Zembla and Spitsber gen formed a part. On that continent Pro. fessor Warren maintains that-the-Garden-f Eden was situated.
What are the three chief points to be looked for in such a Paradise as tradition asserts to bave been the cradle of our race? They are
