Explorers in Greenland.

Lieut.. r. Z. Peary. Z. S. N. writes
in GoidtttCaite's Geographical Magazine
his views as 10 the way Greenland
should be explored. He says: For
more than $50 years the inland ice Of
Greenland has been source of in-
creasing interest and speculation to
travellers and scientists, and especially
to students of the physical history of
the earth. Far how much longer it
has been an object OF superstitious
horror to the scattered Esauimaus
who inhabit the narrow strip of barren
mountains intervening between it and
the Arctic seas there is not even a
legend TO .say. The results of the
various attempts to explore it-leaye
little or no room to doubt that the in
terror of Greenland is entirely SUBJ
merged beneath the accumulated frozen
precipitation of ages. This great con-
gealed reservoir has an area of some
100000 square miles, equal to about
three times the area of France or the
German empire. and twelve times the
area of New York state. Its frozen
surface in tie center is 5000 to 10. 900

is extremely interesting both per Sc
and in its relations to the glacial epoch

farther efforts for its exploration and
study will continue TO be made and
will yield valuable results, but to me
its great charm is that to the proper

Lost to Sight.

General Sheridan was not tall
man, though he had commanding
presence. While he was an under
officer he was one day drilling n COM
pany, and was annoyed by the un>
soldierly appearance of tail. round

Don't stand that way!' Sheridan
finally exclaimed. You look like a
Chinaman doubled over washtub.

and chin elevated. Like this
Then the officer gave the man a
superb example of the perfect soldier

Indian Superstitions.

Frederic Remington whose pictures
of army and frontier life are familiar,
is ut the Grand Pacific Hotel. The
Apache is the hardest man to take
photographs of, says he. He is
something of sun worshiper, and
when he finds out that the sun makes
the pictures he's afraid that your medi-
cine is stronger than his. He takes
no chances. Well, | don't take any
chances myself when | 90 into IN eec-

him.
The doctor arrived and looked with
astonishment at the unusual scene be-
fore him. The gloomy factory, with
its grimy, smoky surroundings, and
the wounded, bleeding boy, was no
unusual sight 10 him. But this young
girl, with her sweet sympathetic eyes
and soft, white-jeweled hands, one of
them clasping the dirty little hand of
the sufferer the other gently stroking
the hair from the palid brow-who
could she be and what was she doing
in that dingy place? She was kneeling.
and the rich folds of her light gown
fell UNDECIDED on the dirty floor.
Once he glanced up as she handed
him some linen to bind the wound. and
he saw dark, scowling face looking
angrily at them, and recognized the
junior partner.
When the doctor had made the little
sufferer as comfortable AS he could he
arose to 90. asking: Are YOU going
TO send him TO the hospital?"
Yes" said Mr.. Cameron. harshly.
The men in the patrol are getting
impatient" He was greatly annoyed
at what had taken place, and the fact
that he had felt his fair cousins scOrn
did not tend to lessen his displeasure.
Does any one know where he lives?n
cried Edna. Then shall take him
home in my phaeton. We can drive
very carefully in that"
Now, Edna" said Mr.. Cameron.
impatiently you are really CARRYING
this thing too ridcuously far. Come
with me and let the men take care of
him. This has been too much for YOU,
my dear; you are extremely pale, and
he attempted to draw her away.
She shook herself free, and disdain,
ing to reply motioned the physician to
follow her with his burden. The boy
was tendcrly placed in the phaeton and
carefully and slowly driven toward his
home.
The young doctor. who had at her
request accompanied her, went ahead
before they reached the home to pre-
pare the poor waiting mother. He
had felt that the meeting would be toe
much for Edna's already overstrune
nerves.
But it was Edna who, when the first
burst of grief was over comforted the
sorrowing mother; it was Edna who
in quiet tones. told the story to the
neighbOrs, and who, with gentle
authority, kept them from crowding 10
and worrying the mother. 1t was Edna
who came day after day and sheerec
the heart of the mother as her boy
slowly recovered, and who. when he
was strong enough, took him for long
rides in the fresh air.
Then is it any wonder that the young
physician, who had continued to at
tend the boy. should feel that without
her life had little happiness for him:
And is it any wonder that Edna, con-
trasting his noble qualities with the
mean, selfish disposition of her cousin
should return his love?
1t is said that when the news O.
Edna's marriage reached the junior
partner so terrible was his anger that he
dared not trust himself among his EN-
ptoyes but locked himself in his office
aud there brooded over his losS--foI
it was loss to him in double sense.
He had not only lost Edna's love, bul
her immense fortune as well.

The late j. \. Mccullough. First
Vice President of the Pennsylvania
Railroad, was very old-fashioned in his
views of railway management. He be-
lieved that a road should be run for the
benefit of it's stockholders. When he
took charge of the Cleveland and Pitts
burg Line its stock went begging at
2 l-2 cents on the dollar, but he lived
to see it worth s. for 81. and its great
appreciation in value was directly
traceabe TO his management. Me-
Cullough began railroad life as rod
man, at the age of Il years.

In n Japanese Farmhouse.

An Out-Of-thc-wav corner of Japan is
sketchcd by Percival Lowell, in the
.fUn7itjc as follows:
On the top of the opposite bank stood
perched Il group of houses, not enough
to make village, and far too humble
to support an inn. But in the midst
of them rose well-to-do temple, where,

The mouse was n generous instance
of mountain farmhouse. The Hoors
were innocent of mats. and the rooms
otherwise pitiably barnlke. Yet an air
of largeness distinguished the whole.
It WAS clearly the home of man of
standing in his community. one who
lived amply the only lite he knew.

The father intoned the service from a
kind of breviary, and the family joined
from time TO time in the responses.

The policy of the republicans was to fill
buster for time. In this several un-
sophisticated fuslonists gave valuable
assistance. Schnauber called the atten-
tion of the speaker that member OF the
last legislature was on the floor and
shameIessly directing the movements OF
certain members OF the house. II his
people wanted him here why did they
not send him? Schnauber referred to
Parker, who was not disturbed.
The Brown county contest cases have
gained additional interest from the an
nouncement that Judge Campbell has
directed the auditor of Brown county to
make a recount of the entire vote of
the county. The reason for this order
Ii that the court has become satisfied
that at least ESQ fraudulent votes were
cast. The order directs the ballots to be
compared with the poll books. The re-
publicans claim the result of this re.
count will elect all the Brown county
officers and all the republican members
of the legislature except one. An effort
will doubtless be made TO get the house
to delay action until the recount Is fin
Ished. For some reason Pickler's friends
deny that that gentleman will be here

Pickler is planning quietly TO drop into
