the expedition has in every respect been al
tended with success, particularly as the sell
entific researches have throughout been car
ried on exactly in accordance with the regu-
lations formulated by the International Po-
lar Commission. Photographed and mag
nctic studies have also been pursued on
the ice in the Ice Fiord, as well as paralaX
measurements OF clouds and observations
as to the temperature OF the air, the snow,
and the earth. The winter has on the
whole been mild, the greatest cold oc-
curing on January I'd, when The ther-
mometer registered 35.5o centigrade be-
low freezing point. Storms have been lew.
Since September last the following Dulid-
ings have been erected: a hut on noun
tain at an elevation OF 2I0 metres, con-
tanning the thermometer and the wind
fan, which were read by sel1-regisier-
ing electrical apparatus; two astronomi-

wood storehouse. The dwelling-house
and working-room have also been enlarged.
The following game was snot during the

SANDWICH, MASS, September l9.-Mrs
Alphonso Bradford, of Hyannis, on Cape
Cod, is q person of mediumistic tenden.
cies For some time past her health has
not been good she having oyer-exerted her
self in domestic labors. On Thursday
night last several Of the neighbors visited
her and soon the conversation turned on
the subject of spiritualism, and it was pro-
posed to invite a Boston medium to the
village to hold seances. Mrs. Bradford OBJ
jected and there was a general discussion
of the subject. Mrs. Bradford, after her
callers had departed, became very nervous,
and at about midnight went into trance.
At the expiration of three hours, she not
recovering her faculties, DR.. Pitcher was
called, who found her apparently dead,
with marked rigidity of the body. Her
face was colorless and cold, but close ex-
sminaton show ed that life was not extinct
She as still in that condition at last ac-
counts. Twelve years ago Mrs. Bradford
had a similar experience, aud remained
unconscious for twenty-five days.
