POlal. GeOgraDhy.

Engineer Melville said: ''You have no
dea how great is the fascination of Arctic ex-
ploration. When once INDUCED it becomes
as difficult to give up as gambling"
''When do you intend to go to the north
again?''
II hope to sail on the steamer Bear when
it starts on the Greedy relief expedition
edo you think that Lieut. Greedy is safe?''
81 do.n
do you think that the north pole will ever
be reached?''
81 do, if we attempt to make passage by
the way of Franz Josef land.''
''.What are the advantages to be gained
from all the suffering and loss of life Incl
ent to Arctic exploration?'
''There are many advantages. If the pole
is reached vast amount of useful informa-
ton will be gained concerning the laws of
storms and wind waves. We will be able
then to complete the geography of the world
and measure the fattening OF the earth at
the poles. Additional knowledge will be
gained of astronomy, meteorology, ocean
physics and natural history, the thorough
understanding of all of which directly and in
directly adds to the comfort and safety of
man. But do not ask me to enumerate all
the advantages that result faom Arctic ex-
plorations. / am an enthusiast on the sub
ject, and 1 am willing to devote my life and
time in, its service.n

Il Death Bed !Smind1er.
Eureka Springs (Ark.) Special


This place was thrown into an excitement
to-day by the revelation following the death
Of Samuel H. House, formerly from Gales
burg, III. House came here Nov. 4, 1882, an
invalid, and represented himself as lawyer
by profession, who had sought this place as a
last resort for the cure of his malady. He
was an intelligent man and fine talker.
He suddenly grew worse about two weeks ago
and called physician, who told him he could
not recover and advised him to telegraph to
his friends at once. He discharged this ply
sician and from that time planned a swindle
to have his remains sent home. He made a
will and bequeathed to a young lady from
Missouri a large sum of money. r. D. Mont
gomery, an old gentleman whom House
knew, was his victim. House represented to
Mr.. Montgomery that he had large property
at Galesburg and had business interests
there. He made Montgomery executor of
his will and provided for the repayment of
$S47 Montgomery had loaned him. The sum
included the burial outfit, casket and travel
ling expenses. Mr.. Montgomery started
with the remains last Sunday, and on his ar
rival at Galesburg found that House had
served a term in the Iowa penitentiary be-
IolC Coun1HS W Ille Springs anu tudt he nau
no property whatever at Galesburg, but rela-
tives only, and had taken this plan to pro-
vide decent burial and to secure his body's
transportation home. He remembered sew
eral persons seriously in his will, which was
made about two days before he died. 1t is
said he was afiianced to the young lady to
whom he willed the $40, 900. House had been
sceptic, but on his deathbed, before max
ing his will, professed conversion and was
baptized and joined the Southern Methodist
church.

Two Small Fires.

About twelve o'clock last night fire was
discovered in the little old barn back of the
st. Paul house, on Fort street above the Seven
Corners, and, as the wind was blowing quite
heaving at the time, serious fears
were entertained that the blaze would
extend to aserious confagration. Shingles
half burned, and great patches of fire were
scattered all around in every direction, fall
ing upon the surrounding buildings, which
kept every body busy endeavoring to keep
the flames from extending to the adjoining
structures. The barn was very cheap af-
fair and WIS substantially destroyed. At the
tine the fire broke out there were twelve or
thirteen horses in the barn and it was with a
good deal of difficulty that they were got
out. Several men went in
through the binding smoke with
knives in their hands and cut the animals
loose, letting them out upon the street. One
mare, however, belonging to R. S. Knapp,
was left behind in the general scramble and
was burnd to death. One man who aided in
cutting the horses loose received very Sc
we're cut in the left hand. The
loss was small, probably not over $500 be-
sides the mare. The property had been re-
Gently rented by Mr.. Killerman. The origin
of the fire is unknown. Officer Hanft, of
the police force, did good service in getting
out the horses and saving property. The box
giving the alarm was pulled by Fire Commits
sioner Schliek, it being his first attempt. He
performed the feat very gracefully.
At l o'clock yesterday morning one story
house 16 by 25 feet, and partially finished
off, belonging to Charles Haupt, situated on
an isolated lot on Beach street near Seventh
street, accidentally caught fire and was
burned to the ground. 1t was insured for a
small amount, but for just what is not de-
fnitely known. No alarm was sounded and
the department were therefore unaware of
the fire at the time.
