AN OPEN ARCTIC SEA,
Seasons When n Ship Can Pass From
the Pacific to the Atlantic.

Seasons When u Ship Can Pass From
the Pacific to the Atlantic.
That steamers can pass through the
Arctic ocean in certain years is the
opinion Of Capt. A. H., McGregor, based
upon his experience in the polar re-
gions. Capt. McGregor has seen twen-
ty-three years service in the Arctic,
and commands the steamer Orca, owned
by the Pacific Whaling company of
San Francisco. He was in this city
few days last week, and talked enter
tainingly of his experience.
Last year." he said, mine Of the
Pacific Whaling company's steamers
and ships reached Cape Bathurst, the
farthest point north and east ever
reached by a vessel of any kind. We
had been whaling in Bering sea, and,
having finished what is termed the out
side catch in July, we started for the
Arctic to finish the season. We passed
along the east shore, rounded Point
Barrow, and then made the journey to
the cape, which is near the Mckenzie
river We cast anchor and whaled
there the rest Of the season The ma
tves were somewhat surprised at our
appearance, but as they had seen white
men before they soon oyercame what
ever fear they might have felt and be-
came very friendly. They did not diff
fer in the least from other Esquimaux
We sounded the Mckenzie and found
that boat drawing more than four
feet of water could not approach with
in thirty miles of the river The land
on both sides was mountainous and
covered with snow.
'The oldest native told us that it
was many winters since white men
| came in boats, which led me to believe
that no boat had reached the cape since
Capt. Collinson and bis party visited
the place in small boats when they
were making survey Of the British
possessions, but they were compelled
to remain there three years before they
could return
1--WE could have made the trip from
the Pacific to the Atlantic last year if
we mad so desired, but our business was
whaling, not exploring. We found what
is called the breeding ground Of the
whales, which lies between Cape Bath
urst and the Mckenzie river. We left
four vessels, the Norwalk, Balaeya,
"A~~AAPuo y" eAAAo A>SH " WullcI IueTe
while the others finished the season
on the Siberian coast. Those that
wintered in the Arctic have been whal-
ing all summer, but we have had no
report from them and do not know
| if the ocean is open again this year.
Natives at the cape whom 1 ques-
toned told me that the ocean was
fairly open three years out Of four.
| and that there was great big sea
one year in five. Last year was what
they termed q great big sea- and they
lsaid sthat1 the same condi tions prevailed
in 1889. A large vessel could not pass
| through fairly open sea, so that the
chances of reaching Greenland through
the Arctic sea are one in five. From
this 1 am inclined to the belief that
Collinson entered the ocean when it
was open Portland Oregonian.

Homo Hfntx.

Two parts of ammonia with one of
turpentine makes mixture which
will soften old paint and varnish so
that they can be easily scraped off.
Embroidery should be ironed on
the wrong side. It should be placed
upon a piece of heavy white flannel
or fat. covered with u clean piece of
white cotton, and pressed until psr-
fectly dry.
If ink is spilled on a carpet or
woolen >tablecloth put on Immediate
ly thick layer of common salt.
When this has absorbed all the ink
possible scrape off and apply more.
Keep doing this until all the ink has
been taken up. -.
To clean white silk lace spread a
piece of white paper with calcined
magnesia. lay the lace upon it, cover
with another sheet of paper, and
place between the pages of heavy
book for several days. Shake off the
powder and tho lace will be white
and clean.

Sorghum KIolasses,

In making sorghum molasses the
juice should be run into three vats
OF sufficient capacity to keep at
least two hours ahead of the boiling.
AS each vat is filed stir in unslacked
lime until litmus paper dipped in
the juice will not change in color.
The lime will neutralize the acid and
cause more impurities to rise with
the scum. After the lime juice has
settled for two hours, draw into a
defactor and boil down. When draw
ing, the tap should be two inches
above the bottom of the tank to allow
the sediment to settle. After use,
the vat should be thoroughly clean
ed. The boiling should be done as
rapidly as possible. It is the slow
and uneven boiling that colors the
syrup. A good boiler will keep the
pan filled with white foam. Cool
the molasses as rapidly as possible. -

Farm NOteS.

The refuse OF the cider press should
always go to the swine.
When forest leaves can be got they
make excellent bedding for swine.
Everyone must be his own Judge
about growing artichokes for swine.
Another man thinks he has found
a way to control sex, but it is a de-
lusion all the same.
Idle horses in winter will be bene-
fitted by feeding them corn fodder
awhile and then hay.
Breeding animals should have ex-
erclse and this necessitates lot for
them to run in some of the time.
If the horses are worked down feed
generously On ground corn and oats
mixed with cut hay and well salted.
When calves are from three to six
months old and weigh from eighty
five to 100 pounds they are best for

GOOD EVENING"!
Have You Read The G|obe?|
UNDER A DARK Sky.

Incendiary talk is the fore-runner
Of incendiary deeds.
If man cherishes thought in his
inmost soul, and nurtures it, it will
sometime find utterance.
And if the opportunity occurs the
word will spring into the act.
Mutterings are the mufied precur-
sors Of revolutions.
Fire in mems soul will some day
burst into flame.
Men may have evil in their hearts
for generations, but the evil only
waits its time to burst out.
Discomfort broods over the nation
like a great cloud.
The darkness has entered mems
souls.
You may hear the mutterings OF
the coming storm.
"Revolutions never 90 backward" j."
They may be good or bad, but they
revolve.
There are OminOuS signs in the sky.
1t is enough to excite anxiety and
foreboding.
The storm may blow over, but it is
q dark sky we are under now.

At last a rift III the clouds! The
democratic party is not dead SOrg
is the name that shines in the halo
around the rift. His real name is
not Sorg Gum, but just plain Sorg.
Col. Paul Jamboree Sorg was the
democratic candidate for congress
in the Third Ohio district.
He was opposed by Colonel Rath-
bone, a republican roarer Of lurid
and shining stripe.
But Colonel Rathbone was not in
in 1t, for Colonel Sorg has "bar-
rel, " and the brilliancy of oratory is
tinsel when It's lies along side the
glitter Of gold.
Colonel Sorg stood on no platform.
He followed the illustriOus example
Of Grover |, and 'sriz above party" "
Colonel Sorg stood upon no platform
he stood upon his "barrel.' And

Three thousand more ballots for
Sorg were found in the boxes than
