typographical map of the region between the
Yakutat bay and Mount St Elias, some sixty
miles northwest, and especially to study the
glaciers and geology of the region. A STAR
reporter called on Mr.. l. C. Russell, who was
chief Of the expedition, the other day to ascer-
tain some Of the particulars of the trip.

Mr.. Mark B. Kerr, also a member Of the United
States geological survey, and by Mr.. E. F.
Hosmer Of this city. Seven camp hands were
hired at Seattle, Wash, of whom ]. II. Christie
was foreman On account Of uncertain health
Mr.. Hosmer turned back from the first camp,
and the expedition during the remainder of
the season consisted of nine men, all told.
THE START FOR ALASKA.
Preparations for the expedition were COM
pleted at Seattle about the middle of June, and
a start was made for Alaska on the 18th The
voyage as far as Sitka was made on an ordi-
nary excursion steamer plying between Puget
sound and southern Alaska. On reaching

Zone Of the most interesting excursions
made from the camp on the shore was a canoe
trip to an island near the head of Yakutat bav.
which rises more than a thousand feet above
the water and furnishes an unobstructed view

TOWARD Nj. ST. ELIAS.
"As soon as the scientific work of the expedi-
ton was well under way the line of march was
taken up toward Mt. St Elias, with view of
occupying that peak for Topographic purposes.
The journey inland was found to be extremely
difficult on account Of the dense vegetation
that covered all the lower slopes and the rugged
character of the glaciers that had to be crossed.
During nine-tenths of the journey inland the
way was over crevassed ice, or on glaciers
deeply buried by dirt and stones
The plateau at the southern base
Of the mountains is occupied by one
vast glacier hundreds of square miles in extent,
fed by ice streams from the mountains, of
such volume that 1t has actually displaced the

Beyond the Seward glacier another opening
named Dome pass, was reached, having also
an elevation of about 40G0 feet and leading
westward Crossing this pass and descending
along another snow slope, still another south
ward floating river Of ice was met, which
derives its SHOWS from the northeast slope of
Mt. st. Elias.
TRYING TO REACH THE SUMMIT
'The route of the explorers led up this
glacier to the northern base Of the immediate
summit of Mt. st. Elias The highest camp
was reached on August n, the twentieth day
of toll and hardship after leaving Blossom
Island. The weather had been clear and beauti-
full for ten days. and there was every prospect
of a good days climb on the morrow Rising
at 3 O'Clock on the morning Of August 20, what
was believed to he final ascent was
begun. but after a few hours a heavy snow
storm broke over the mountains and further
progress was impossible. A forced march was
made through the snow to lower camp and
after the storm abated. n second attempt was
made to reach the peak, but another snow
storm more severe than the first was again en-
countered. During this storm the party was
separated and / remained alone a: the higher

Koch and His Discovery.

To the Editor of THE EVENING STAR:
There is SO much interest in 'Koch's dis
covery" and there has recently been SO much
excitement over Pasteur's treatment Of hydro
phobia that it seems fitting that honor
should be given to whom honor is
due: First-Jenner, the discoverer of vac
cination, from which discovery all these later
ones have sprung: next to the late DIR. Con-
stant.ne Herring OF Philadelphia, who in 1880
directed i'll Stapf's Archives how to prepare
virus from anthrax; it WAS done by DIR. q. A.
Weber who cured with it every case in cattle
and the herders who had contracted the
disease. His report was published in Leip-
zig in 1886, but no notice was
taken OF it except by DR.. P. Dusresne Of
Geneva. who used the prepared virus and pre-
vented the further spread of the murderous
disease among the sheep and shepherds. His
rcpor. WAS published in Geneva IN January and
February. 1887. DR.. Herring says that ''the dis
covery of the bacteria and their incredibly
rapid propagation seemed to be of much more
importance than the cure OF cattle and the loss
of millions of dollars by this disease.
Radiate heat, proposed scores OF years ago
(this was written prior to 1879, C.B.G.). for
other zymoiic diseases by c. H'g was dlscov-
cred in a very ingenious way by Pasteur to pro-
vent the increase of bacteria. Now the heat Gas
it has done N hydrophobia) and the nosode
Disease products, C.BG.) may suffice to cure
every case. DIR. kGsemann had moral courage
enough to introduce antheacine in sangrene in
1853, aud DIR. Ranc has given it In carbuncles
since 1853" The last use can be corroboraied
i'll every part of tue United States.
In 1880 DIR. Herring, after having. in South
America. experimental upon himself with
snake poison, wrote as follows: The proving
of snake poison may pave the way to the pre-
vcntion of hvdrophobia and of variola, by
the proving Of the respective morbifc poisons."
This was repeated i'll 1888. In Au-
gust. 1888. he procured some saliva
from a rabid dog, prepared it by triturating
with milk sugar, and then preserved it in alco-
hol. With this preparation IN differen. strengths
experiments were made on the healthy (prov-
inSs), and later many cures were made of con-
di,ions SIMILAR to those produced upon the
provers. DIR. Herring says that OF many per-
sons who, having been bitten, took lyssin, as
the prepared virus is called, none ever dcvel-
oped hydrophobia. This is negative testimony,
of course, but just as good Pasteur's after his
treatment
DR.. Herring did not find it necessary to dilute
his virus through the spinal marrow of rabbits
or in any other elaborate or painful method,
but in q simple way with non-medicinal vehi-
cles.
DIR. Koch has yet to demonstrate that tub
ercle bacillus causes tuberculosis and that he
can cure with his preparation incipient tuber-
culosis or even lupus; if he can all honor to
him, but let us honor the pioneers even though
they be not members of academies of science.

FASHION IN PARIS.
Two New and Opposite Styles Coming
In-MOre Predictions of Crinoiina


The fashions are going 20 run in new
direction, says the London Truth. Two opposite
styles are coming in; one may be roughly
termed the bolster-case style and the ether
the trundled. The former is revival of a
ffeetng mode of the consulate and the
latter of the TrianoE rusticities, models
for which were found in dairymadJ.
Crnoline is hankered after by the
priests and priestesses OF fashion. This
can be seen in the way they swell out the
hips with little paniers and in the festoon
trimmings OF skirts. These trimmings are
incompatible with flowing folds or drap-
cry. Hoops, depend upon it, will soon
be resorted to to hold well ont the fes-
TONED skirt from the wearer's person
Lumpy figures are at an advantage in
the coming mode OF paniers and full
and non-trailIng skirts. They will be at an
equal disadvantage ill bolstcr-case gowns, in
winch. " occurs to me, your tall English
girls Will seem gigantic. Naturally the hats
and bonnets to go with the skimp skirts are to
be gigantic, fashion loving sharp contrasts.
Hair Is to roam about the forehead, lend
ing skye-terrier air to the physiog-
nomy. or to fall in curls round the
nape OF the neck. In this case the face should
take an ingenious expression. With paniers
and festooned skirts il should be dressed high
A movement Is going forward among the hair
dressers to vary the color of the tresses accord
ing TO the gown. Thus old gold will give
value" to raven tresses and black brows. and
sky blue or pale lilac to amber hair. Queen Isa-
bella continues to be faithful to Venetian red,
though she has just got into the sixties. The
Duchess de Charities has grown almost bru-
nette.
