ANrARTIc MYSTERIES.

A Region Where Summer Never
us Smiles and No Explorer Goes.
The Antartic is region Of eternal
winter and Of unmelting snow. where
SO far as is kNcwn-not a single plant
finds life within the circle and where
never a living creature roams. The
zoologist Is not drawn to the southern
circle as he is to the northern. and yet
the attractions for him are great. be-
cause they have all the charms Of the
unknown. It is believed that only n
few of the hardest birds build in a
few Of the sheltered corners OF the
Antartic, but who knows?
Who can say that deep within those
awful solitudes may not be revealed
the mystery Of the life of the fur seal
when he vanishes from the waters Of
the north Pacific7 Or that on some
Antartic continent or island may not
be found the priceless remnant Of the
great aux tribe? We know not, at any
rate, what riches or poverty may be
there until we go to see. And nobody
has yet gone to see-beyond the fringe.
1t is a curious fact that no one has
ever wintered within the Antartic,
many as have been the expectations and
ships, companies which, compulsorily
or voluntarily, have wintered In the
Arctic. There has been no need to do
so, for there has been no possible goal
beyond, such as India, which first led
our mariners into the Arctic; no scien-
tific romance such as has character
lied the quest for the northern pole.
And yet another thing differentiates
the Arctic from the Antarctic. In the
north there is-unless DIR. Nansen is
grievously mistaken-a pole surround
ed by water. In the south there is q
pole surrounded by land-a polar basin
as opposed to apolar continent. While
the books and essays, the theories and
journals. which have been published
concerning the Arctic region, would fill
q library, handful of volumes con-
tains all that has ever been printed of
records of the Antarctic.

NAVAL MILITIA.

Minnesota Requested TO Join with
Cthers I'm the New Movement.
Washington, Oct. 10.--The navy de-
partment is taking steps to have Min
neseta establish a branch of naval
militia, and to that end is in corr
respondence with parties at Duluth,
st. Paul and elsewhere, with view to
having the coming Minr esota legis-
lature pass a law similar to those in
other states for the establishment OF
the service. DR.. Bangs of Duluth, Is
In charge of the movement. Secretary
Herbert has placed in the hands OF
Lieut.. Schutzie, who has sent them to
Dr. Bangs, copies Of other state laws
and full information as to this naval
militia.
1--WE Are much in hopes that 1t will
result In giving us. q strong naval bat
talon in Minnesota" said Lieut..
Schutzie. 1.-THE service is already es-
tahlished all along the great lakes,
except in Minnesota and Wisconsin,
and we want to see those states move.
1t is particularly important along the
border. Illinois has eight divisions;
some of them being on inland rivers.
Pittsburg has another fine inland di-
vision. There is no reason, therefore,
why st. Paul and Minneapolis should
not join with Duluth and other lake
ports in the movement As soon as
arranged, they will be supplied with
cutters, Gatling guns, cutlasses and q
full equipment for naval drill. The
naval vessel Michigan will also be as
signed to them for a designated time
next summer for practice cruise"
Secretary Herbert is giving Lieut..
Schutzie and the Minnesota parties
his cordial cooperation in the move.

track, but none of the occupants were
badly hurt. The trestle is twenty feet
high.
The job of cutting the stringers and
piles was exactly the same as was
done near Prentice last week. Who
