Thrilling Experience of q YOung Sports
man an the British Northwest.
NEW YORK, N. Y, June 22.-After
months OF wandering and hardship in the
UNEMPLOYED barren lands of the British
Northwest Territory, Casper w. Whitney,
the young writer and sportsman, returned
to this city on Wednesday night. Frozen
by the icy blasts from the Arctic Ocean,
with death from starvation more than
once staring him in the face, and with no
companions save Indian guides and dogs,
white men have ever been before.
Whitney left this city on December Is,
1884. with A. III. II. Hemming, an artist,
IN the interests of well-known magazine.
Ten days later, with sleds laden with sup
plies, pack of dogs and two Indian
guides, the men started from Calgary and
began their journey into the frozen north.
On the fourth day Hemming became so i'll
that he was forced to return and give up
the trip.
Then Whitney pushed on with no COM
panlon save his guides and dogs. He trav-
eled north, going down the frozen bed of
the Athabasca River to Athabasca Lake,
and from there down the Slave River to
the Great Slave Lake. He stopped at Fort
McMurray, Fort Smith and Fort Chip
pewah, and spent many nights in the tents
of the native Indians. At other times a
hole in the snow, with heavy fur garments
for covering, served him as place to
rest. He is in good health and happy.

BRISTOL, r. l., June 22.-The exact
date OF the launching of the Defende r has

The greater part of the Defenders under
body now shines like gold. The men
first scrape off the rough plates, after
which the metal is sandpapered and then

Thursday afternoon and was taken to the
shops Immediately upon its arrival.
1t weighed 5S5 pounds and measured
eight feet in length. The men were at
work on it soon after it arrived, and pre-
parations were made to set the rudder up
and cover it with the sheathing of Tobin
bronze.
a gang of men are at work sheathing
the big mass of lead ON the keel. This
sbeathing is of bright ,Tobin bronze and is
is put on in lengths of about four feet,
which are about eighteen inches in width.
The sheathing is fastened to the lead the
same as on the bottom of steam and sail
ing yachts, and is held by screws which
run into the lead at intervals of about four
inches, the sheathing being punched for
tie screws to go through.
At the forward and stern ends of the
keel the sheathing meets the bronze shoe
ing that was put on some time ago and the
workmen are making neat job of Joining
the two platings. The sheathing is Tapped

PECULIAR TACTICS.
an Advocate of Separate Schools Makes
Serious Charges.

an Adtocafe of Separate Schools Makes
Serioms Charges.
BOSTON, Mass. June pa charge of
alleged immortality in the Boston schools
is being used in Manitoba as an argument
against the public school system. A. R.
Martin, member of the French Canadian
party IN that province, who is carrying on
the agitation for separate schools, has
charged the public schools in the United
States, and particularly those of Boston,
with being the fountainheads of Limmor-
atty.
The most mysterious feature about
the whole thing is the identity of the re-
ports which Mr.. Martin read. No report
has ever been made upon such subject as
the state of morality in the schools, either
by the city of Boston or the State.
Mr.. Pettigrove, president of the Boston
school committee, declared to-day that the
story was absurd. He said there was no
document on earth making such state
ment about BOSTON schools as that men-
toned in the dispatches and so far as he
knew, there was no document of such
nature relating to the public schools of
any other city. In Massachusetts, there is
no report or public document published
which bears upon the subject mentioned.
The Manitoba legislator who made the
statement about the Boston schools had
no report whatever from which he could
quote.

POISON IN THE PdhEG ORIG
Three Deaths Caused by the Error of the
DrM61iSt.


HORNELLSVILLE, N. Y, June o.
Midway between this city and the town OF
Fremont lies the farm of George Huber.
Until Thursday his family consisted of a
wife and two children-Fred, aged 7, and
Rose aged 2.
Last winter an infant child died under
peculiar circumstances, which have a
terrible bearing npon a tragedy that &C.
Cured in Huber's home Thursday night.
Last December his infant was taken to a
neighboring town to be christened. Be-
fore the family's departure dose of pare
goric was given to the baby, then,
securely wrapped in warm robes, it was
bundled into sleigh, but when the
party arrived at the church the baby was
dead. 1t was thought the child died of sui
location.
Nobody dreamed of connection between
the baby's sudden death and the medicine
which had been given it. The paregoric
bottle was slowed away in cupboard, not
to be taken out until last night. Then
Mrs. Huber gave a dose to each of her chill
den and took one herself.
In an hour all were suffering horrible
agony. A doctor was sent for, but before
his arrival Mrs. Huber and little Rose were
dead. The son was saved. 1t is thought
that poison was contained in the medicine
through druggists error. An investiga-
ton is now under way.

SUICIDE OF A PRISONER.
Frightened at the Talk of
LynChing, He Takes
His Life.
THREE HUNDRED ON GUARD.
Despite the Vigilance of the Ranch
ers, Thefts Are Made as
Boldly as Ever.

CHICAGO, ILL, June 22.-Three hun
dred farmers are doing police duty in the
east end OF Dupage County, armed with all
sorts of weapons, which they are ready
and anxious to use. This battalion OF
militant agriculturists is looking for a
band of thieves which had been stealing
every kind of movable thing to be found
on the farms between Elgin and Hinsdale.
One of the members of the marauding
gang was captured at L o'clock this
morning, after lively chase, at Mammoth
Springs, between Elmhurst and Hinsdale.
He was conducted to the lookup at Hins-
dale by Q party of thirteen men. He was
greeted by hundreds of villagers, who were
aroused by the loud and threatening talk
of his captors. Marshal Nicholson locked
the man up, but the crowd did not dis
perse.
The talk of the farmers evidently fright
ened the man, and, believing that lynching
would otherwise be his end, he killed him
self. This made the farmers more de-
termined upon the capture of the other
members of the gang. They again went
into the country, and on the way told the
neighbors the glad news OF their capture
and the importance of quick work to
round up the other thieves, who had been
making them their victims. Men were
quick to join in the search and Marshal
Nicholson promises to have all the robbers
in jail shortly, unless they have already
put many miles between themselves and
Dupage County.
The corpse of the suicide and supposed
thief still lies in the lookup. No one can
identify him. When arrested be first gave
his name as William Schultz, and then
denied this name and gave that of Max
OConnell. Ii either one is correct Schultz
is probably the one, as the man has all the
characteristics of German laborer. He
denied that he was guilty of the crimes
charged against him, and said he was a
peddler.
The farmers for ten miles around Hins-
dale have been sleeping in their Earns with
guns within reach waiting for thieves.
but none have been caught.
In many cases the men on guard got up
in the morning and before making their
additions discovered horse, COW, hun
dred chickens or a corn cultiyator gone
and nothing left to show for the missing
property but the marks of mule team on
the turf. Such work as this has kept the
detective farmers busy the past eight weeks.
The whole community is aroused, as the
loss OF horses in the spring is especially
calamity.
The losers of all this property were be-
ginning to wonder where and when it
would stop, when the man was captured
to-day. They did not stop to mourn his
death, but lost no time in starting in search
for his confederates. Developments are
expected hourly.

Ha,caii,s Coffee Y,d.st,.v .

WASHINGTON, d. c., June 22-The
Department of State has received from
Consul-General Mills at Honolulu report
OF the Labor Commission on the coffee in
dustry OF the Haw allan Islands.
The commission sees no reason why the
coffee industry should not be made to
equal the cultivation OF sugar in Hawaii.
The soil and climate are favorable and the
demand for labor is readily supplied by
the Japanese, whose contracts with sugar
planters have expired. But the commits
sion says this investigation raises the
question whether the Occidental or
Oriental cultivation shall dominate there.
1t recommends that vigorous efforts be
made to induce immigration to Honolulu
by the farmers of the United States.

things as they most like.
Alice manifested desire for out of door
exercises and for outdoor work, but there
was nothing for her to do. She asked per-

Some time ago wild stallion got into

leaping on his back, galloped like mad

only horseback ride she took at Bolivar.

Alice climbed down to the ground with

ROOT BEER INToxIcArING.
The Supposedly Harmless Bevera0e Con.
de,n1sed by Chicago Foneu.


de'nned by Chicago Hon,en.
CHICAGO, ILL, June 22.-The much
advertised and heretofore thought to be
harmless root beer has been declared an
instrument of the devil by the Women's
Christian Temperance Union, and here
after it will be classed by that organization
in the same category with hofbrau, dogs
head. whisky sours, Manhattan cocktails
and other unmentionable concoctions.
War was declared some time ago on this
beverage, but hostilities were allowed to
lag for some time. Now, however, the
battle has been renewed with increased
yigor, and the good people of the country
are warned not to consider the drink nom
alcoholic merely because in its manufac-
ture no alcohol is put in.
1t is set forth that in the process of fer
mentation, which is an essential step in
the preparation OF this so-called temper
ance drink, alcohol is formed from the
decay of the saccharine matter, often in an
amount fully equal to that found in malt
liquors.
