TOWARD THE SOUTH POLE.
The Proposed Exploration Of the Ant
arctic Sea and Its Great Difficulties.

From the London Daily News
1t appears to be probable that Professor Neu-
mary, of the Hamburg marine observatory,
will succeed in getting a south polar expedition
organized. It might have been supposed that
until some greater measure of success had at
tended similar adventures in the arctic regions
the most ardent advocate of such schemes
would have doubted the wisdom of exposing
human lives and treasure to the risk of antarc-
tic seas. All the best authorities are agreed
that the difficulties to be encountered in the
south are much greater than in the north, and
the hideous stories which gained currency
after the return of the last arctic expedition
might well have sckened the boldest of this
generation sufficiently to deter them from any
assault upon the stronghold of King Winter in
the south. In comparing the difficulties OF
arctic and antarctic adventure, Sir Wyville
Thompson says:
1--WE can only anticipate disasters, multiplied
a hundredfold, should the south pole ever be-
come goal of rivalry smong nations" For
various reasons the great lone land under the
southern cross is more difficult of access than
the north. 1t is much colder there than in the
arctic circle. There seems to be no such warm
currents as are to be found in the north-such,
for instance, as the Labradore current or that
round the south coast of Spitzbergen. Such
carnations from the torrid regions of the earth
do much to mitigate the rigors of the northern
seas at certain points. and bring about the
| most striking variations of temperature, break
| ing up the ice at certain seasons and opening
the way to navigation far beyond points other
| wise attainable.
Any enterprise of this kind will, of course,
| be pushed on during the summer months-dur-
| ing January, February and the early part of
| March, that is. But even in the height of sum-
mer the temperature in the antarctic regions is
| always below the freezing point of sea water,
and bitter tempestuous winds and fogs and
binding snow storms all but incessant. No
| arctic explorer has ever gone beyond the
bounds of vegetation. At least lichens and sea-
weed have been found wherever northern navi-
gators heve penetrated, but in the awful soli-
| tude of the south Sir James Ross found not the
slightest trace of vegetable life, either ON the
land or in the sea. yet he never came within
200 miles of the south pole. The magnetic pole
has been approached within $50 miles, and it
might be obtained by covering that further
distance; but even this is doubtful.

Ball Dresses for Chicago Rosebuds.


From the Chicago News
There is new stuff being sold in the shops
this season for the ball dresses of debutantes
which is pleasing change from the everlast-
ing illusion skirts and white silk or satin
bodice. in which their fresh and palpitating
loneliness is incased for most of the social
functions of their first winter. The stuff is
called rainbow tulle, and is being sold in great
quantities. 1t is the ordinary white illusion
with heavy silk threads in rainbow colors
drawn through it at intervals of about an
eighth OF an inch. bright blue thread red,
yellow, lilac, and a green one, then there is
a little space. and the blue thread begins ag ain
and the whole series is repeated The foun da-
ton is of course the usual white silk skirt over
which are several layers of tulle. and there
are three ballet skirts of the rainbow illusion.
The bodice is of white silk, IL preferred, but
many make up with it bodice to match some
one Of the rainbow threads in color, and have
sash of the same. 1t is boon and blessing
to the dark, pale girls, to whom the dead
wilderness of the regulation dsbutante costume
is very trying. 1t has often been the case that
a pale girl has been a failure at her first ball
because the unrelieved colorlessness of her
dress made her look blank and dull, and after
ward, in the richly-colored gowns of her
second season, blossomed out a positive beauty.
So this fabric is having great vogue with girls
OF that type, as it combines color and that deli
cacy and freshness which is requisite in q
debutante's gown.

A Cat i'm an Organ.

HE JUMPED OUT JUST AS THE RECTOR WAS IN
THE MIDDLE OF THE BENEDIcTIoy.
A Syracuse, N. Y, special to the New York
World says: There has been mystery about
the large pipe organ at St. Pauls cathedral
for week. Whenever H. r. Fuller. the or
ganist, touched the keys weird noises were
heard in the interior. There was a large at
tendance at the morning service yesterday,
The Rev. DIR. Lockwood was in the middle
of the benediction when a large, wild-look-
ing maltese cat made flying leap over the
head of the organist and landed near w.
J. West a member of the choir, fastening
its claws in his knee. Before the cat could
be seized it was half way down the side aisle.
A gentleman in the rear tried to catch it, but
only succeeded in making it double in its tracks
and go rushing up the main aisle straight for
DIR. Lockwood. The worthy rector lost his
place in the prayer as he caught sight of the
wild-eyed cat rapidly approaching The cat
did not pause. but rushed between the feet of
the excited chorus boys. A few seconds later
and the cat was back again in its old quarters
in the organ. 1t was some time before the in
terrupted service could be resumed. An in
vestigation showed that the cat had made her
home in the organ and had broken several of
the smaller crackers" The ecclestical au-
thorities have made every effort to capture the
cat, but without success.

Dehorning Cattle.

Prof. Albert E. Menl1e, director of the
agricultural experiment stations of the
Arkansas Industrial University, has issued
his first annual report. Among other
things experiments on dehorning cattle
have been tried under Prof Menkes direc-
tion, and the following conclusions are
given:
/. The operation requires some care, but
is not difficult or dangerous.
g The wounds heal favorably as a rule
although in exceptional causes and when
the operation is improperly performed con-
tinued suppuration and chronic imhsmma-
tion may ensue and seriously interfere with
the health of the animal.
g. In cases that progress normally, from
three to four months may be given as the
time which elapses before complete healing
occurs.
a. When amputated at the proper place,
the horns do not return.
s. The constitutional disturbance is not
severe, and is manifested by a slight and
temporary rise of temperature, with proba-
bly,, in most cases, slight decline in weight
and milk secretion, lasting over the first
week or so.
g. The quality of the milk is not injuri-
ously affected.
T. The operation must be considered
painful, but there is no evidence that the
pain is excessive after the operation is
over.
On calves we conclude that:
]. The operation is less painful than in
adults.
q When removed as above directed, the
horns do not return.
g. When the animal is healthy the wounds
heal favorably in about six weeks or two
months.
