Sketch of Captain Hall,

Captain Hall was about five fee
eight inches In height, with com pact
firmly knit frame. indicative of grea
vlgor and strength, and weighed prob
ably about one hundred and ninety
pounds. He had a large head, with 8
profusion Of thick, brown hair ano
heavy brown beard, inclining to curl
His forehead was broad and massive
with full development of the TEN.
poral and coronal regions. His eyes
were blue and the whole expression OF
the countenance firm. but very agree
able, kind and pleasant. Captain
Hall hailed from Cincinnati, where he
was once engaged in the newspaper
business. publishing the Occasional
and afterwards the Daily Penny Press.
In his earlier years he was a black
smith. working at the forge, and his
robust development, beyond question,
was in some measure attributable to
the exercise Of that ardent occupation.
he was In no wise scientific or
highly educated man, but had re-
markably practical mind, with great
deal Of force Of character. He had
never studied the science Of naviga.
ton even, though he was, through ex-
perience and aptitude, az competent
to navigate ship or conduct All over
land exploring expedition as any of
the daring band Of discoverers that
had endeavored to solve the great
Arctic problem. He sailed northward
in 1850 in search of Sir John Frank
lin, since which time his name and
fame have been the common property
Of the world.
Captain Hall was an adept in sledgs
travelling. He travelled in his time
over ten thousand miles in sledges,
and considered himself acquainted
with all the minutia of such manner
OF locomotion. He intended to essay
the irksome task of training his men
to adopt the customs of the native
Esquimaux in their food and dress.
He hoped to bring his followers to an
of the uncooked flesh of
the whale, the walrus and the seal.
BY using this food they were supposed
to be able to stand with impunity the
dreadful cold OF the Arctic Circle.
The dress Captain Hall approved was
dserskin sack jumper, with fur hood,
deerskin breeches, deer and elder skin
stockings, one over the other, and COW
cred with stout moccasins OF deerskin
AMI high leggings. With these pre-
cautions 1t was supposed the men
could defy any degree OF cold.-New
York Herald.

This is the way IN which a member
Of the st. Louis Farmers Club put the
dog question:
There are In the United States
about 81, ,OOO, 900 Of sheep, worth not
less than $lOO, ,OOO, ,OOc, wkile their an.
nual increase and wool clip may DO
considered ~ worth $50, ,O0O, 900 more.
This is part Of the permanent wealth
Of the country. There may be at the
same time about 100000 Of dogs in
the United States. allowing one dog to
ten people, aud portion Of these dogs
live by rsvaging the sheep farms.
The consumption Of 6, 900 900 Of these
dogs would feed aud fatten 5,OOO,OOO
hogs, each worth $l2, or $50, ,OOO, 900 In
the aggregate. Add to this . few
millions Tor slaughtered sheep, and
we shall begin 10 understand what 1t
costs us to enjoy the luxury Of having
many logs"

A postal card, mailed in New York
city, was received recently at the post
office Department, on which the wri-
ter irreverently asked, "Why the
devil don't you have the backs of
these cards ruled SO that q fellow can
write on them? Please answer
through personals Of New York Her
dtd." It is stated that one reason for
not ruling them 10 because the cards
will be used more for printing than
writing, and - fellow can" print "bet-

AND PRODUCERS
The public mind 10 just now violent
" agitated on the subject Of railroad

The public mind is just now violent
~ agitatsd on the subjsct OF railroad
monopolies and their expressions.
The masses, averse to angry discus.
sione, not unfrequently submit to OPP
preesions for long period of time Be.
fore Offering formidable resistance
thereto, but when oft repeated injuries
can be endured no longer and the peo-
pie move with unanimity for relief,
the evils are likely to be removed or
modified and the perpetrators punish
ed for their wrong doings. The spirit
which manifests itself In the public
meetings throughout the country, and
the character Of the resolutions adopt
ed, indicate unnistakably that the
people feel heavily the oppressor's
hand.
The discussion Of this great question
should be characterized by frank ness
aud deliherstion aud with reference TO
the mag nitude Of the issues involved.
Among the appliances Of modern
civilization there arc perhaps none on
which individual aud national ad-
vancement SO much depend ~ those
which afford expeditions and cheap
transportation aud travel, rapid aud
economic com merciAl and social inter-
course. When therefore these chan
nels Of commercial life are obstructed
or guided by the hand Of great monop-
olies, are diverted from their legiti-
mate courses, It Is time the people
should take such prompt action as
will subordinate them to the public
welfare.
Financial strength and prosperity
are dependent upon the thrift Of the
producer, productions are the source
Of wealth and the basis Of commerce.
The chief productions In this country
are those OF the soil, while the accu,n-
ulatiens Of the producers are gathered
from his surplus, placed in the mark.
cts Of the world: aud this. with us. is
to considerable extent. in competi-
ton with other countries whose re-
sources. cheap labor and facilities for
handling render them powerful COM
petitors. II in this competitive strug-
gle the cost Of transportation shall be
20 exorbitant as to compel the farmer
to part with his productions at loss,
or without fair remuneration, it is
but q question Of time when the wave
of financial ruin will sweep over the
land. Involving in it's fearful tides

the two Esquimaux secreted them
selves behind piece OF ice, enticing
the bear near enough to US to kill him.
A few days after this we got our boat
In the water and worked our way
west and southw west, and continued to
work every opportunity to the west
ward, In hopes Of reaching the Lab
rador coast and getting temporary re-
lief.
We were picked up by the steam
ship Tigress, Captain Bartlett, on the
3Oth Of April, in.latitude So 35 north,
longitude IS west, or near Wolf Island,
and about forty miles from land. The
Polaris is now without boats, having
lost two in trying to get North In the
spring Of 1872.
The Tigress fell in with the party in
q dense fog and providentially struck
the very foe on which they were,
otherwise they must have perished.
They all seem toIerably well.
Captain Tyson complained OF SWELL
ed legs and feet, but nothing serious Is
the matter with him. When they
left the Polaris all on board were in
good health.
In reference to the way In which
the Polaris got away from the party
which was rescued from off the Ice
berg Captain Tyson states that he felt
little anxiety at first, thinking she
would soon come to their relief. "I
set my colors," he said. las she
steamed down along the shore, but the
vessel was soon lost to sight in the
bend of the land, and behind what
took to be Northum berland Island.
The piece Of ice was on commenced
drifting southwark As the wind hauled
to the northeast opening q little bay
to the northeast Of Northumberland
Island. saw the vessel in the harbor
there her sails were furled, no smoke
was issuing from her smokestack that
l could see. then attempted to bring
my boats across the floe In an easterly
direction, hoping to find water and
reach the shore. succeeded in drag
ging one boat across, took the water
and attempted to reach the shore some
distance below the vessel We were
then drifting very fast, and the gale
was blowing fresh. with great vio-
lence, from the northeast and snow
ing very fast and drifting. 1 was
driven back on the ice again and com.
PEELED to haal my boat out. Night
closed on me and carried us to tho
southwest. In the morning we were
about thirty miles southwest Of where
the ship went In harbor. A heavy
sea was running, which broke up my
foe piece, separating US from six bags
of bread and one boat. l saw vessel
under steam and canvas rounding a
point to the northwest. Thinking she
would come to our relief gave myself
no extra anxiety. but soon we were
doomed to disappointment, and, from
that time until the Tigress rescued US,
We never got glimpse Of the Polaris.
