One of the converts of the Catholic church
for which Mrs. Gen. Sherman is credited is
none other than the classical Mary Ander-
son. This event took place just previous to
her debut, and it required the most earnest
persuasion of her friends to keep her from
becoming a nun in 1875 and 1876. But her
Kentucky relatives rallied and gradually
induced a milder consideration. So she
contents herself by carrying as much of the
devotional paraphernalla as practical on her
touring. An altar of rare wood placed at
the head of her bed. is laden with two wax
candles, crucitix, Dresden urn for the
holy water and prayer-book constantly in
demand.

What an Alaskan Explorer Pro
poses to do in Arctic Discovery.
The San Francisco Call says: The Geo
graphical society was addressed last even
ing by Charles y. Fourciet, who has re-
Gently returned from trip of 5000 miles
up the Yukon river. The lecturer pro-
poses, if he can raise sufficient funds, to
make trip from some point on the eight
eenth parallel. probably Lady Franklin
bay, to the north pole. He expects to ac-
complish this feat by the aid OF an inven-
ton, model of which he exhibited. This
consists OF two boats which by means of
runners attached to their keels, are to be
made to serve also as Sledges. The con-
triyances also has attached to it two wheels
which will assist its passage over the rough
ice.
AS substitute for dogs, two balloons
will be attached to the Sledge. so that when
a mountain is reached, it may be easily
crossed. The inventor explained that be
would discharge all anchor from gun. SO
that it land in ravine on the other side of
mountain. To this rope would be at
tached, and when the balloons shall have
raised the sledge to a desired altitude he
will haul the balloons down into the ravine
by hand-over hand manipulation of the
rope. As the average Esquimau dog re-
quires one fish day to keep life in his
gaunt frame. the saving in fish freight is a
strong argument in favor of balloon sub
StituteS.
The lecturer modestly explained that his
invention was not quite complete. and pro-
poses to make a practical test of it with
small boy, weighing, say. about twenty
five pounds, before he himself crosses any
of the Arctic bluffs. His financial estimate
was that it would cost about $40, 900 to try
the experiment.
Mr. Fourciet was subjected to a severe
cross-eXamination by the members of the
society as to the practicability of his in
vention.
Where will you get the gas for your
balloons?" asked an interested listener.
20, will take it in concentrators from
San Francisco" replied the explorer. -.
''Supposing the gas gives out, what will
you do?"
Then will stop where 1 happen to
be-"
''How many miles a day will you
travel?''
About two miles"
DO you not know that at that rate you
will reach the north pole in forty-eight days
from Lady Franklin bay"
well there may be accidents"
No action was taken by the society in
the matter of raising funds to start Mr.
Fourciet on his trip in balloon to the
north pole.
