part Of its membership, ~ to what at

inary verbal report TO the Acadamy of Nat
ural Sciences at its regular meeting this
evening. After saving that he was not pre-
pared to make an extended and formal re-
port he said II have In the last twelve
months had many novel experiences. As
for the work in which the academy is espe-
cially interested. doubt if l can say more
than has already been said.
II have been fortunate in being able to
carry ont almost to the letter the plan Of
the academy, which was the first to see
merit in it. l have traced the northern
limit of the interior of Cape Greenland. L
have settled to my own mind ard wheu you
have heard all think you will be convinced.

existence of enormous glaciers in all the

studying one of tile most unique people of
the world - the L quimau of Northern
Greenland, known as the arctic Highland
erS. There are about $50 persons in the
tribe. They are separated by miles of Ice
and great glaciers from all other human
beings"
In concluding his remarks Peary returned
10 the academy the gOld-fringed silk Ameri-
can flag, saying that it was ''the only flag Of
any nationality that had seen the return of
the sun over the northern ice cape, aud the
only flag that had h0ated over the east
coast of Greenland above Il deg. and been
carried along the northern boundary of the
mainland"

RESCUED FROM THE WAVES.
Captain 0'Brien and His Watehman
Taken From the Wetmore.

MARsHFIELD, Or, Sept. 27.-After ten
days of suffering from cold and hunger,
with the probability constantly before them
OF filling watery graves, Captain O'Brien
aud his watchman, William Holmes. were
rescued from tho whaleback steamer Wet
more this afternoon by Captain Bergman
and the Umpqua life-saving crew. One
week after the crew had been taken off the
WRECK Captain O'Brien and his watc man
went aboard the vessel during q calm to
prevent parties from boarding her and
claiming salvage Then storm came on
ana for the last ten days all the efforts Of
the life-saving crew to rescue the ship
wrecked men were futile, AID il seemed GER
tain that they must perish.
Ihe sea was notrunnlng so high to-day as
yesterday and yet 1t was hard struggle
Tor the rescuers to reach the vessel. After
several hours work they put line aboard,
which Captain O'Bren and Holmes tied
about their waists and then jumped into
the sea. when the life crew pulled them
safely to shore.
The men were almost worn out from ex-
poSure, and when they saw the lifeboat up
set last Friday they began 10 think that
their chance OF escape was about gone.
The captain had liferaft ready 10 launch,
and. as last resort, he intended to risk his
life on the raft, though it would have been
aslim chance
For the last five days the men have lived
upon one scant meal day, and this MORN
Ing they divided The last biscuit, which had
been set aside for to-day's meal. Their suf-
fering from ctld was terrible, and for two
days they stood in water up to their waist,
and the spray dashed over their bodies.
The wharf at Empire was crowded 20
day when the men came ashore, and the
greatest interest in caring for their wants
was taken by the citizens Of that place.
The weather side Of the Wetmore's main
cabin was stove in. and the vessel will un-
doubtedly prove total loss.
1t is unlikely that anybody else will 90
