FROM THE FROZEN NORTH.

Return of n Party of Scientists Who Went
to Greenland in the Interests of Etnology.
DIR. Fred A. Cook. of Brooklyn, and a num-
Der of other scientists returned from their
scientific expedition to Greenland last week.
DIR. Cook, who was a surgeon in the Peary ex
pedtion, wintering in the Arctic, is familiar
with much appertaining to that region. After
leaving Nova Scotia they cruised about New
foundland and Labrador, crossing Davis straits
went up the Greenland coast to Cape York, in
latitude zee. Capt. Hebb, who commanded the
expedition, considered it unwise to go farther
north, although the party wished to. At
Naagsuk six full-blooded Esquimaux dogs and
nine puppies were secured, with the intention
of breeding them to take on an Antarctic ex-
petition.
Crossing Bafin Bay to the American coast at
Anronak the remains of the irst Greenland
settlers were obtained. In the graves were
found a number of their implements of the
chase, made of stone, ivory and BONE the
points of the arrows being similar to those of
the American Indian. Altogether two barrels
of bones were exhumed, apparently of small
race of people; also beds of soft coal, in which
there were fossil remains of semi-tropcal
plants, shellfsh, etc. Fossil wood, shells and
gravel 300 feet above the level Of the sea were
found, showing that the seas had been higher
than at present.
At Codthaab the remains of ancient build
ings, supposed to have been those of Morse
men, were found. They were made out of
broken stone and instead of cement, moss was
used. Here was found patch of old rye
growing in a wild state, showing that the seed
had been sown many years. twenty-five miles
in the interior from the above place another
settlement was found, the walls of some build
ings being nearly intact. One contained an
apartment for several families. At Cape York
100 different measurements of the tribes of
mixed Esquimaux were taken by kodak and
fash-light at night but the full-booded tribes
are north of that point. The average size of
these male Esqumaux was five feet one and
one-half inches and 135 pounds weight
females, four feet eight inches and 100 pounds.
At AssiZes Harbor DR.. Cook got Esquimau
children, whose parents consented to let him
bring them to the States with the understand
ing that he should take good care of them and
bring them back next season. The girl, whose
name is Keloketak is IS years old, and Mikok,
the boy, is IA They appeared quite contented,
but somewhat homesck They could speak
and write English, having been sent to school
by the Hudson Bay Company.

OF Those WHO Have Lost Limbs.

Following is the text of bill Oh R. 1881 in
troduced by Mr. Covert IN. Y, d. providing (:
That from and after the passage of this act all per-
sons the pension roll and fill persons hereafter
granted pension who. while in the military or
naval service of the United States and in line of

the Reserve.
So it will be seen that the drill on these Sum-
mer tours is all in the nature of work, just
what would be required in actual service.
Now, the creation of this naval militia is
one of the most important steps in our recent
naval progress. In 1859, although our small
Regular Army contained possibilities of indef-
mite expansion, owing TO the militia behind it,
the number of trained men that could be called
upon for service in the Navy was absolutely
restricted TO the active force of little over
5000 men. In the short space of three years
body of men has been organized, trained and

that the Republicans Of Massachusetts stand as
firmly as ever upon the Fundamental and salu-
tary principles that guided this country in un-
exampiod success for more than 80 years, aud
they appeal to the people to condemn the party

general want. They favor the unconditional
repeal Of the purchasing clause of the silver

the United States cannot alone support silver
