SAILS TO THE MIDNIGHT sun
BEAR LEFT SEATTLE 10, sUCCoR
THE WHALERS.
One Years Provisions on Board
Route the staunch Little Vessel
Will Take-Hope of Success.

Seattle, Wash, Nov. 27.-The United
States revenue cutter Bear sailed to-
night carrying succor to the whaling
fleet imprisoned in the icy Businesses
of the Arctic ocean on the northern
shore of Alaska, between Point Bar
row and Harschell Island. The Bear
will make a short stop at Port Town
send, where her crew viii be paid off,
after which she will proceed to I'm
alaska. From here her next stopping
place is uncertain, depending upon the
extent to which Boring sea is closed by
ice. Captain Tuttle will, however, go
as far north as possible in his endeavor
to reach Sledge Island, which is 80
miles south Of Port Clarence and five
or six miles off the mainland. It will
be easy to cross from there over the ice
TO Point Rodney.
The chance of getting to Sledge Is
land lies in the fact that it is in the lee
of Point Rodney, which sweeps off the
ice carried down by the north wind,
making a sheltered stretch of water
From Sledge Island the party is to pro-
coed overland to Point Barrow under
the leadership of Lieutenant Jarvis,
who will cross over to Point Rodney.
From here the party will go to Port
Clarence, where there is a band of
reindeer.
The start proper will be made here,
for no matter where the Bear lands,
the overland party will have to go to
Port Clarence for deer. The length of
the overland journey will depend on
the starting point. At the best it will
be in the neighborhood of 1000 miles.
The shore line will be followed closely
all the way to Point Barrow. Having
landed the overland party, the Bear
will go into winter quarters at the
nearest place of shelter In the event
the Bear cannot reach Sledge Island,
Captain futile said that there was a
point he knew of from which he could
land the overland expedition, he
thought He would not tell where this
spot was, for the reason that he might
also fail to reach it. The Bear goes
provisioned for one year. Captain Tut
tie and his officers are very hopeful of
the success of their mission.

A Lsasting Faith.

The most forcible example of faith
that is lasting ever recorded in the
southwest is shown in the history of
Captain George Searles of Tombstone.
For eight long years he has been work.
ing one claim that has never yet re-
turned him one cent. With 40 other as
sistance than his own hands, he has al
ready done LOCO feet Of work in shafts
and drifts. His claim Is just below
Tombstone, quite near the stage road,
and not far from the famous Contention
mine. His faith is that the rich Con-
tention ledge runs through his claim,
and that ere long ne will strike that
ledge and jump in a moment from al
most a pauper to millionaire. No one
else believes this, but that makes no
difference to him, and every day when
he goes down his mine he expects to
come out a rich man.

REFUSE PROBLEM SOLVED.
From the Destruction of Garbage
Shoreditch Is to Generate Electric
Light and Supply Hot Water.

London, July Lord Kelvin, profess
sor of natural philosophy in the Univer>
sity of Glasgow, this afternoon inaugu-
rated the works established by the NUM-
cipality of Shoreditch, which are designed
combinedly to destroy the local refuse,
generate electric light, and supply hot
water to the public baths and laundries
Lord Kelvin described the project as a
supremely happy combination of scien-
tific knowledge and mechanical skill, and
said it had required remarkable courage
in it's application. The scheme briefly is
as follows:
Carts will convey the street, trade, and
motor cars and electric hoists will dis
whence it will be shot by the aid of me-
chanical feeders into a dozen cells of a
destructor, where it will be exposed to a
forced blast produced by motor-driven
fans, some of which will ventilate an adj
jacent sewer and blow the gases there
from into the furnace to help feed the
flame.
A new system of thermal storage will
economic the heat. as, while the destruc-
tors must work continuously, equal
production of electricity will not be re-
quired. The steam generated will be
stored in boilers and used to drive the
engines and dynamos and to heat the wa
ter to be furnished to the baths and laun-
dries. 1t is believed that the works will
effect a great economy. They will con-
sumo nearly 20, 900 tons of refuse. which
has hitherto been extensively carried to
barges and then dumped into the sea.

LITTLE PILLS SON.
Seeks to Go to West Point-The Pres
ident Pleasss Mrs. Sheridan.

New York, July president McKin-
ley has gladdened the heart of the Wild
ow of Fighting PHIL Sheridan. Since
the death of her soldier husband Mrs.
Sheridan has devoted herself exclusive
ly to the education of her two boys 1t
was the ambition of her life to have the
elder, Philip H.-his fathers name-sake
sent to the West Point military acad-
envy on the 50th anniversary of her
distinguished husbands entrance into
that historic institution. She tried to
get him an appointment in the closing
days of President Cleveland's last ad-
ministration, but failed.
Soon after President Mckinley as
sumed office Dis attention was called to
Mrs. Sheridan's desire to have her boy
sent to West Point. The president had
not only great admira ton for Fight
ing PHIL as soldier, but strong af-
lection always existed between them.
In the early part of April the president
sent for Mrs. Sheridan and said to her:
IF can do anything for you or your
two boys, just say the word and it shall
be done I would esteem it rare priv
ilege to honor the memory of Phil Sher-
idan."
II have but one favor to ask of you,"
replied the soldiers widow, land if that
is granted I will be the happiest woman
in this broad land. I want to have my
eldest boy go to West Point on the
golden anniversary of my husbands
appointment as a cadet I am afraid,
though, it is too late to satisfy my am
bition."
"'Well,'' replied the president, eff I
can do it, the fiftieth anniversary of
your husbands appointment to West
Point shall be honOred by the entrance
of another Philip H: Sheridan to the ma
TONS military school. 1 hope the ca
reer of the son will be not less meritor-
ious than that of his eminent father"
President Mckinley did not forget his
promise to Mrs. Sheridan. Last Wed
nesday morning she called at the exec
utive mansion by appointment, receiv-
ed from the pres dent her sons selection
for a cadetship, and herself filed with
the secretary of war the official docu-
ments Young Sheridan will report to
the military academy on July /, 1898.

TEA MARKET SLUMP.
Owing to the Enormous Imports in
Anticipation of Duty.

New York. July 1.---There is a larger
quantity of tea stored in the great
warehouses In and about New York
at the present time than there has
ever been before in the history of the
country. There are tens OF millions of
pounds packed away, and more is COM
ing.
For the last few months thousands
of tons of tea have arrived at San
Francisco, to be shipped across the
continent. The reason for this i'm
nlense accumulation of tea. is the duty
of 10 cents per pound proposed by the
new tariff. At present tea is admit
ted free, and the possibility of a tax
being levied has caused nearly every
Importer to lay in a stock. If con-
gress puts on the duty the 10 cents
tax will be so much clear profit for the
importers. Another reason tending to
increase the supply was the recent ac-
ton of congress appointing a commits
sion to establish the grade of tea to
be admitted to this country. The av-
erage consumption of tea in America
is pound and half of tea per capita
The large supply of tea on hand is
likely to cause a slump in the tea mar
ket within a year.
