POLAR

The present year will be memorable
for Arctic exploration, three expeditions
to the Polar sea having been arranged,
two Of which will take their departure
during the current month. LIEUTENANT
PEARY expects to sail on his second ex.
petition June 10, the port of departure
being St. Johns Newfoundland, whence
he will go to Mccormick bay and estab-
fish winter quarters. He proposes to
spend two years in pushing toward the
pole from this base of supplies, using
sledging teams for this purpose, as in his
first expedition, which, if not greatly
successful, made some contribution to
the information regarding the Arctic
region. PEARY, however, was not salts,
fed with the results, and being unable to
obtain from any of the bodies interested
in Arctic exploration the means for a
second attempt to locate the pole, he
braVely went to work to raise the money
by lecturing. He will be accompanied
by five other adventurous spirits willing
to risk their lives in the frozen region of
the north, and the expedition will be
we'll equipped for the toilsome and dan.
gerous exploration.
Another expedition will leave Liver.
pool this month for Franz josef Land
under the command of FREDERICK JACK
son, the design being to follow that little
known territory to the north in the hope
that the pole may be reached from its
shores. 1t is the theory of JACKSON that
the northern limits Of this unexplored
island extend to SIS degrees or beyond,
and he accordingly hopes to get within
800 miles of the pole by land and then
push on IN open boats. He has a party
of ten persons and provision for three
years. The theory of JACKSON receives
little consideration from scientists, but it
is by no means TO be concluded from this
that be will not succeed, for pretty much
every idea respecting that remote region
rests largely upon pure supposition, and
if ever the pole is discovered it is quite
as likely as otherwise to be by some one
who utterly d~isregards accepted theories.

petitions and the one which will proba.

he believes that there is an open Polar
sea and he intends TO put himself at the
mercy of its currents in the hope that
they will carry him over the pole and

back to some habitual shore. He pro-
poses to follow the Siberian coast TO the
mouth of the Lena river and then push
as far north as possible. When he can
no longer pursue the voyage in his
vessel he will commit himself to the ice
foes. This expedition carries provisions
for six years and is fully supplied with
dogs, sleds and other necessary equip
ment. DIR. NANsEN's plan is n of ex-
tfemest peril and the weight of the proba-
bilities is that no member Of the expedi-
ton will ever return to tell the story Of
their hardships and suffering.

A CITY OF SCHOOLS.

The present week, which mas Deen d
week of commandments throughout the
state, makes a new era in the history OF
Durham. For a long time known only
as a great manufacturing town, it is fast
gaining a reputation as a city of schools,
the superior advantages offered by its
various educational institutions being
such as to place it alongside the best uni
versity towns in the country.
AS with financial or religious activity,
educational progress is contagious. 1t
gets in the atmosphere, and although we
may not remark it at the time, and the
same influences which incite the student
to higher aims and nobler effort, leave
their impress upon an entire community.
When development is in the air, We must
needs expand, whether we would OIL not,
and just what a good school or college
means, in the matter of culture, for the
town or village in which it is located,
cannot be estimated.
The closing exercises of the graded
school last week and other private insti,
tutions since that time, furnish abundant
evidence of the fact that while the rest of
the world is going forward in the march
of educational progress, Durham is net
being left far behind nineteenth century
thought and nineteenth century ambition
have found their way, not only in the
school room, but in the homes, and a
healthy intellectual growth has been the
consequence.
And now that Trinity college has an
opportunity to show something of what
has been done by hat institution during
the nine months just closed, the whole
makes a showing for Durham of which
every citizen should feel proud.
The college, especially, should be &C
corded much credit. Laboring as it has
under all the obstacles of a new institu
tion-all the inconvenience incident
upon its removal and the thousand draw
backs tn which it has had to contend,
it has done good work and is only that
much stronger for the difficulties through
which it has passd.
In Durham or GU of Durham, Trinity
college is essentially a great institution,
and as such is recognized by leading edu-
Gators all Over the country. The com
mencement this week, which is being
largely attended, shows how deep an in.
terest the people of North Carolina feel
in the future of the college, which, while
it counts by the hundreds the men, who,
having first learned to strive at Trinity
have won distinction in the world of
Thought, is yet in its infancy of labor
and usefulness.
TIE GLOBE co~ngratulates Durham and
Trinity college, and welcomes the visitors
within our gates.

TOBACCO TALK.
Rev. Alex Walker Gives His Views on the
Tobacco Market.

Tobacco Market.
The receipts Of leaf tobacco for the past
week have been fairly good, with some
variation in prices. In other words, the
market has not been as uniform in prices
as usual. The quality Of the receipts
have not been so God, with a larger per
cent Of damaged tobacco. All grades Of
greenish tobacco seem to be a little off in
price. The better grades of sound to-
bacco we can see but little change in
price. The offerings for the past week
have been mostly of inferior grades and
much of it in bad condition, hence the
average price is lower. This, however,
is owing more to the quality and cOndi-
ton of the offerings than to a decline in
price, except in the green and inferior
grades. Good tobacco in good condition
is selling we'll. Many of the farmers have
heard so much said about the financial
condition of the country that they come
to market not expecting to be pleased.
They bring the most inferior, not willing
to risk their better grades, and the con-
sequence is they get low prices and com.
plain, while those who bring good to.
bacco are pleased. When we consider
the financial condition of the country and
how all classes are affected by it, we do
honestly think the tobacco raisers have
as little cause to complain just now as
any class of men we know, the married
men only excepted.

grasp something of the great purpose of
the author. Omega is declared by
those who have read the entire work to
be one of the most remarkable writings
of the century. While pretending to be
a novel, it is a work having a deeply
philosophical purpose, as is more fully
developed in later chapters. 1t is some
thing that no fairly intelligent person
can afford not to read, and is surely des
tined TO become a classic.

y PULLING question affecting the
status of an army officer has just been
passed on by the attorney general. Some
weeks ago the president nominated and
the senate confirmed LIEUTENANT
WRIGHT Il. E~DGERToN of the second ar
tillery to be associate instructor at West
Point with the rank of captain. But as
the act creating the position does not go
into effect until July l, the second comp.
troiler of the treasury decided that the
lieutenant's acceptance of the position
was equivalent 10 a resignation. The
attorney general holds, howeyer, that
LIEUTENANT EDGERTON had been nomi-
mated TO and confirmed for an office
which did not exist he could not accent
a mythic place, as he had not resigned
he was still a line officer. This view
will probably be accepted by the war
department and the lieutenant will re-
main a line officer until he is renomi-
mated for the place at the academy.
