objects Of the Peary Expedition.

The chief objects of the Peary expedi-
ton included careful examination Of the
detached land masses which are known
to lie to the north of Greenland, and
which have been seen on previous expe-
ditions, not only by Lieutenant Peary,
but also by Lockwood and Brainard,
little or nothing being at present known
Of their extent and general character, and
the delimitation of considerable por-
ton Of the east coast of Greenland, ex-
tending from Independence bay about
800 miles south to Cape Bismarck. This
portion of the coast has never been ex-
plored, although it was seen from YES
sells coasting in that vicinity about 200
years ago. He also intends to ascertain
the transverse profile of Greenland along
or near the seventy-sevsnth parallel from
Cape Bismarck to Inglefeld gulf. Along
this line Greenland is about $50 miles
wide. Incidentally he will also con-
tinue the study Of the arctic highland

highest latitudes known TO be frequented

HOME, SWEET HOME.

There's a beautiful realm IN the faraway
past,
All lovely with sunshine and flowers,
And voices as sweet as the song Of the birds
Laugh away the bright, happy hours;
/ can hear them now come echoing back,
As 1 watch the starry dome.
And memory bells chime soft and low
Home, sweet home.
The voices loved 50 in that long ago,
And those which make music now,
The coming step and the hand whose touch
Lingers gently on my brow
I hope TO greet In that fadeless realm,
Beyond the starry dome,
Where angel voices welcome breathe to
Home, sweet home.

THERE was no decision In the Lee
Mantle case as applicant for a seat as
Senator from Montana yesterday. The
substitute of Senator Vance declaring
that Mr. Mantle was not entitled to the
seat was agreed to by IS 10 30 votes. A
motion to reconsider was interrupted by
adjournment. The Legislature having
failed to elect a Senator the governor Of
Montana considered that it was his
privilege and prerogative to appoint a
man of his own choice. He appointed
Mr. Mantle and the seat is contested.
It has been the practice of the Senate to
refuse to recognize the authority Of the
governor in such cases They have oc-
CURED before, several times. Referring
to this case the New York Times says:
"All the presidents that can be cited
seem TO sustain this latter position
beginning with case in Delaware as far
back AS 1794 There have been several
instances Of the failure Of lie gislatures to
elect, and iR most of them it was assumed
that he governor had no power to
appoint, and the vacancies continued
until elections were subsequently made
Ia the two or three instances in which
the governors did assume 10 appoint.
including the early Delaware case,
the Senate refused to seat the
appointees, and the principle has been
regarded as established that valid APP
pointments cannot be made on the ex-
piration Of terms where the Legislature
has bad an opportunity to elect and has
failed The only case that has the ap.
pearance Of an exception is that o Bell,
Of New Hampshire, in 1879 and in that
the circumstances we're peculiar" The
case was not consider on the question
Of the governors action, but on Other
technical grounds. Hence that is not q
precedent for this case
