WINTER ON NANsEN.
Philadelphia Professor Hopes Frid-
jcf Has Found the Pole.

jof Has Found the Pole.
Prof. Nathaniel Winter, Of Philadel-
phia, who is a member Of the geo.
graphical society Of that city, told a
q reporter yesterday at the Ho-
tel Ryan that Nansen's discovery of
the North pole. if true, would not be
a barren, sentimental victory.
"A great many intelligent people,"
said the professor, think that polar ex-
petitions are extravagant and waste
OF Intelligence, money and human life.
They imagine that scientists have
tried to reach the pole because it was
sort Of Ultima Thule, a glittering
goal which it was desirable to attempt
merely because it occupies geograph-
ically a picturesque central position,
and because, like the famous North
west passage it has proven hitherto
so inaccessible. These people think
that there is, as sober fact, about
as much practical advantage in reach
ing the North pole as in ascending the
Matterhorn, and that the desire to
do both is founded on similar ground
Others, again, have the impression
that the discovery Of the pole would
at least solve an important problem
In magnetism, and betray what 1t is
that attracts the compass always to
the north. AS for the last misconcep-
tlon, It's hardly necessary to say that
the magnetic pole was discovered
years ago in Boothia, British North
America, In about latitude 70 north,
and In the region where search was
made for the lost expedition Of Sir
John Franklin. There were no sur
face indications to explain the real
nature Of the forces underlying this
remarkable spot.
But. really, a successful polar ex-
pedltlon would be great benefit to
science and to all mankind. I hope
Nansen has arrived there No one
can tell. as long as our present infor-
nation is SO meager. In the first
place, observations taken at the pole
would show the exact extent of the
depression or f1attening which is sup
posed to exist at that point. This
would be very valuable in astronomy
Again, the polar observer could map
out certain ocean currents whose
movements are now wrapped in I'M
certainty. This would be a good thing
for navigation and meteorology And,
as for meteorology, there is no doubt
that sufficient number Of correct OBJ
servat1ons at the very pole would go
far to fixing the real laws Of the
weather. incidentally, too, the ex-
lstence or non-exiStence Of DR.. Kane's
open polar sea could. be determined,
and the absurdity established Of that
idea, so popular years ago, that it was
through great hole at the pole that
the gulf stream descended into the in
terror of the earth, Jules Verne fash
ion, and emerged at the gulf Of Mex
leo, considerably overheated, of course
by its uncanny dive"

greater results To be @ total alb
stainer had come to be a mark of
honor and distinction, and thus, with
public sentiment back Of the tenn.
perance cause, its advocates had their
task simplified and made easier than
in the past, when directly opposite
conditions obtained. Some good peo-
pie were of the opinion that the mis-
sion of the temperance society had
been fulfilled, and that there was no
further need for its continuance
but this the speaker affirmed to be
serious mistake. The demise of the
temperance society would eventually
bring about return Of the old con-
ditions, and all good done and efforts
The permenency of the society In
sured the stability of it's work. and
no cause could be perpetuated with
such benefit to humanity as temper
ance. Hence 1t behooved all MEM
bers Of the Father Mathew society to
labor zealously for the upbuilding of
the organization, and to live lives con-
sistent with the obligations which they
had assumed. The value Of personal
work among friends and acquaint-
ances was inestimable. Many could
be made to forsake drink by kind
words and consideration for their well
fare, and such procedure. In its re-
suits, would not only benefit the In
dividuals, but the temperance society
and community at large. No man
lived for himself alone. All were in
the world to do good and obey the
will of the Creator. These two mis-
sfons would be fulfilled by serving
humanity. Such were the teachings
of Christ when He said: "Inasmuch
az ye did those things unto the least
Of these. ye did unto Me-" This was
the religion Of Christ, and no better
course could be followed than that
laid down by the Master.
On next Sunday nominations for the
different offices Of the Father Mathew
society for the present year will be
made, followed the succeeding Sunday
by the annual election

BISHOP TUTTLE,s VIEWS.
He Favors the Happy Medium IL
Theological Affairs.

Bishop futile, of the district Of Mis-
souri,, occupied the pulpit at Christ
church last evening and delivered an
eloquent sermon to large congrega-
ton. Selecting his text from a part of
Isaiah liv., 2, Spare not, lengthen thy
cords. and strengthen thy stakes"
Bishop futile drew a striking contrast
between the spirit of progress and that
Of conservatism, both Of which he af-
hrmed to be prominent among the
churches of today. The lengthening Of
the cords Illustrated the broad-minded
Christianity, which is at present max
Ing such rapid progress, while the
Strengthening Of the stakes exempIi-
lied the manner in which extremes
were to be avoided. The two condi-
tons should go hand in hand, and
through their union medium would
beAreached which would solve many
Of the difficulties incident to a pre-
ponderance Of either Liberalism or
Conservatism.
