In some cases, sea life, that have drifted to the islands have difslowly developed along lines very In their original those from ferent homes. In few places has nature provided such a splendid chance to study the processes of evolution. The Galapagos have also lured treasure seekers and a few colonists from Ecuador, the country to which they now belong. Tales of hidden treasure have come down through the centuries. Pirates who looted the rich ports and churches of the west coast of South America are supposed to have burled much of their loot In these Islands. These stories seem to be borne out by the unearthing of two caches of silver Ingots and pieces of eight a number of years ago. The islands lie astride the Equator, but the cold Antarctic currents which bathe the coast of Peru, strike seaward at Cape Blanco and surge across the Galapagos group. Strong gales temper the climate, and often the air 13 quite chilly. Up to 800 feet most of the islands are barren, but above that level they are usually swathed In clouds whose moisture aids heavy growths of tropical plants and trees. Although they appear to be only a few dots on a map of the broad Pacific, the Islands have a combined area equal to that of Delaware, and the largest island, Albemarle (also called Isabela), is about the size of Long Island, New ence, York.

Modern apartment houses are built with a life expectancy of fifteen years. Modern skyscrapers might last a century were it not for continual change. On Broadway, a modern building was torn down after a dozen years. Nothing was the matter with It, but the site was wanted for a much taller office building. Homes also are Impermanent. The Vanderstreet and bilt chateau at Fifth avenue, If It had been built In Italy, from whence came the Idea, In would have stood for centuries. about lasted forty New York it only years. Former Senator William A. Clark built a mansion on Fifth avenue that would have stood for five hundred or more years. It cost several million dollars to wreck It after twenty-fiv- e years. But It came down and an apartment house now occupies the site, while a commercial structure stands where the Vanderbilt chateau stood. New York still has some Revolutionary landmarks.

Experts seem to agree that the New York of a century hence will be a much pleasanter place In which to live many ways. Just happened to recall an article I read in the Sun a year or so ago. It told of skyscrapers much taller than those of today, each occupying from three to five blocks, but each with plenty of light and air because they will be surrounded by lower buildings. There will be more parks also and Central park will be extended away to the north, the Sun said. Parks will actually be a part of the skyscrapers because the terraces or set hacks, will be planted wltn flowers, vines, shrubs, and even trees. With trees, there will be birds.

When the World war came he enlisted in the American array and served throughout the conflict as a sergeant in the ordnance service. With the close of the war he went back to his home county to write and to raise fruit on his farm. Supreme in the field that he has chosen to make his own the American woods Harold Titus has written many stirring tales that have won wide popularity among them, Below Zero, Code of the North, The Last Straw and Conquered, Timber. Now you may read his latest story, The Man From Yonder, as it appears serially in this paper. Traffic congestion will be a thing of the past because streets will be built on two or more levels so that various speeds may be maintained. Subways, if they are In existence, and they will be, unless a faster form of transportation Is evolved, will also be on several levels with trains of varying speeds so that distance will be cut down to such an extent that New York will consist of the entire metropolitan area, and thus take In from 5,000 to e 7,000 square miles. transportation will, of course, be by airplane. Again, a start has been made. New York already has a double-decke- d street the Miller express highway running along the margin of the Hudson river from canal to Seventy-seconstreet. In some places in the subways, local trains run above express trains. And, of course, there are airplane lines extending over the entire country, It being possible to eat an early dinner in New York and a late breakfast In Los Angeles. take special pride in producing high grade bugin stationery.

The Islands were discovered, in fact, by a Spanish bishop, whose ship was blown off Its course from Panama to Peru. For 400 years they served as a pirate hideout, a post office for American whalers, and an Ecuadorian convict station. Most of tlie 2,000 Inhabitants of the group today are Spanish-speaking Ecuadorians like those seen in any port In Ecuador. Officially, the Islands are known as the Territory of Colon, of Ecuador. of The few consist ylllages thatched huts and small buildings, clustered near small sugar, coffee and tobacco plantations In the areas not covered with lava rock. Only two of the Islands are Inhabited. Each island has at least two names: one an official Spanish name, and the other nn English name. The English names are generally used by explorers and scientists describing the islands. Galapagos wild life Is tamer than the dogs, cats, goats, pigs, donkeys, and cattle which were planted on the Islands by early explorers and have increased In numbers until they have become a nuisance to the inhabitants. By destroying eggs and newly born tortoises, reptiles, and wild birds, these visitors' threaten with extinction many rare forms of life which scientists still wish to study. A ride on a giant tortoises back is as much a feature of a visit to Galapagos as a sleigh ride down a dry, cobblestone hill of Funchal Is a feature of a visit to the Madelras. The archipelago got its name from the giant tortoise; the Spanish word for tortoise Some of these huge being galapago. creatures are estimated to be from 300 to 400 years old, and are probably the world's oldest living animals. blue-bloode- -- NewYork , For 400 Years They Served as Hideout for Pirates.
