CBl.n WAVE ACCOUNTED FOR
WE'YE BEEN TILTED NORTH
?
Father Odcnbach Finds Part of the
I nited fltalPN Has Taken Riant
Toward Canada.
Cleveland, Jan. 6.?The earth's
\ surface has been tilting since 10 A.
K. Chriatmaa Day. J
Father Odenbach, a learned se I molog
1st and astronomer, reports that
&, - . the tilting is being recorded and
?- measured by the delicate Instruments
In St. Ignatlus's observatory.
Tbe tilting so far has been 1-16 of an
inch In 1,000 feet, so do not be
1 alarmed; tbe rases will not be tlltsd
? _ ' from the malntelplece or* the pictures
set awry.
The -tlhing is from tbe jjnited
States toward Canada, but this counRv
try Is not likely to slide Into the Dominion.
*
The toting affects a floe, or giant
triangle, with a line from Newbnryport.
Mass., through Blmlra, N. Y..
and Cincinnati for its base -end Its
L??< ape* In Canada. Cleveland stands on
1 this floe. It Is as if aslant under the
earth was pushing It In at the upper
end and another pushing It out at
the southern end.
I&-\ Such tlltlngs are usually due to
some known canse, Father Odenbach
says. Bach Htb. piling up of an Immense
weight on the southern shores
Bp'*- _ *?the Great J.akes. Bui he can ass
sign no canse for fhls disturbance,
considers that the recent earthfltafcke
in (be Middle West was only
