of this city, well known Arctic
traveller and author, who has taken
an active. interest in the recent ats
tempt to relieve Lieutensnt GreeIy's
party, and who went before the
Arctic Relief Board last spring to
urgs the offering Of such reward as
would secure the co operation Of
whalers in the search, was asked by
the Associated Press reporter what
he thought of the news received
from st. Johns. He replied, it Is a
story of remarkable and heroic
achieve ment in q field clouded by
disaster due to Incompetence in
Washington. II Lieutenant Greedy
anu his party had all returned in
safety to, the United States, ms they
might have done had they
been properly supported, their
Arctic record in point of skill-
full management and success would
have been unparalleled. No other
Ahetic expedition has ever spent
two consecutive winters and part
of the third in such high latitude,
and achieved such results without a
casualty or single case of serious
sickness. If Lieutenant Greeley
had fouad at the mouth Of Smiths
Sound shelter, and which he had q
right to- expect there, he would
have brought. his entire
party back to the United States in

Unquestionably, and that ia
the pity Of it. It doubles
the grief which must be felt in
the face Of; such a terrible
catastrophe to think that two ships
on successive years, and probably q
third, were In position to land |
stores which would have saved the |
lives of those eighteen dead men.
Beebe, in 1882, anchored In Prayer !
just north of Cape Sabine,
with ship full of stores. CARING |
ton, next summer, anchored in the
same place also, with ship full OF
stores, and a few days later
the, Yantic, with four months
provisions on board, was only thirty
miles away. Any one Of theee three
ships might have landed stores
enough, and exactly where Greedy
afterwsrd made his winter camp, to
have carried that brave p ,rty
through, but their comm anding
officers were not ordered to do so
and they did not think Of it.

but, as pointed out in a letter to /
the New York Herald, on the 18th
of last September, if he remained
until September 1st he could not get
away at all that year, on account OF
the impracticability of s1edging
operations along that coast I

band; shut when he resolved on the
first of last January to abstain from
drinking beer for one year he did a
very wise thing for himself and a very
fortunate one for me-
"He has kept his pledge, then, up to
the present time ?" asked the assembled
company.
"Yes, he has," replied his wife; "not
drop of beer has passed his lips since
last New Years day, and you will ap-
preciate how wise and fortunate it has
been for both of us whom | tell you
that as a result of his abstemiousness
he has purchased a piano, pair of
beautiful diamond earrings, sealskin
sacque, and great many other things,
as well, for me, and an elegant gold
watch for himself"
"All purchased from money that,
had he abstained from drinking, would
have gone for beer ?'
Every cent was the reply.

Our Foreign Born Population.


The fact that of the fifty millions
population in the United States nearly
seven millions are foreign born are very
portentious to many persons. That it
has only come to be viewed with seri-
GUS alarm within the memory of the
present generation is owing in part to
the greater influx of immigration in
the past forty years, consequent upon
the changing conditions and increasing
discomfort of the common people
abroad, and it is measurably due to the
TACT that so many years ago nearly all
OF the inhabitants of this country were
substantially "foreigners," or such near
descendants of them, that the distinc-
tions between the foreign born and ma
tive population We're not so sharply
drawn as now. Although there have
been decennial cPnsuses taken since
1890 we have no direct official infor-
nation respecting the constituents of
our population, as regards the place of
birth, prior to 1850, nor adequate in
formation prior to 1920 concerning the
arrival at American seaports of foreign
born persons,
The political troubles of 1S4S IN
Germany, and the agricultural distress
and resulting famine in Ireland about
the same time, induced a sudden rise
between 1850 and 1860 in the immigra-
ton, but since then the percentage
which the foreign born bears to the ma
tive population has not materially var
led from l3B.pe cent. Those who
read with alarm the statistics of enor-
nous immigration nowadays are apt to
forget that our total population is well
nigh double what it was at the out
break of the war, that the develop
ment of the country in the variety of
interests and in the settlement of its
domain is immensely beyond that Of
twenty years ago and that the disposi-
