SHE SAILED WITH PEARY.
Missouri Woman Who Brnved Peril in
the FrOZen North.

Mrs. Magnolia Hodge of Maryville. Mo-,
divides with Lieutenant Peary's wife the
honor of having been nearer the north pole
than any other living civilized woman.
When the lieutenant sailed for the northland
In 1898 he took Mrs. Hodge with him. Pre-
vious to that time she had been his stenog-
rapher and was much help in getting up a
book giving his experiences during his first
trip. The work was not finished when he
was ready to start a second time and Mrs.
Hodge readily accepted his offer to accom-
pany the second expedition, during which
Peary intended to push the book to compile
ton. She is of opinion that the daring ex-
plorer will never return alive from the
trip which begun a few weeks ago, holding
that he is not now strong enough to stand
the terrible fatigue and privation insepara-
BILE from such a journey.
THE last time 1 saw him." says Mrs.
Hodge, was in Iowa last summer / did
not think he was strong enough, but he
laughed at my fears. His greatest danger
is that he takes no account of difficulty.
His daring almost cost him his life several
times on his last trip. When he started in
land with fifty dogs and when he arrived
where he had started from he had but one.
l think he has injured his health consider
ably in his two former trips. OF course,
he doesn't concede that. He insists that he
is as strong as he ever was and when /
talked with him he appeared to be per-
fectly confident that he would find the pole
on his next trip, which he was planning
then. In our conversation, Lieutenant
Peary said he thought he would be gone this
time not less than three, and possibly five
years. OF course, | am greatly interested
in the result of the expedition. Mrs. Peary
was with her husband on both his former
trips, but she could not go with him this
been born to them recently. She, her nurse
and | were further north then than any
| civilized white women have ever been. We
were between 600 and 700 miles from the
pole. Mrs. Cross died soon after her re-
turn. She was about 60 years old and the
long exposure proved to be too much for
her. Consequently Mrs. Peary and ! are the
two living civilized women who have been
nearest the pole"
Mrs. Hodge does not think Andree Is alive.
If he were she feels confident word would
have been had from him ere now 1.-THE
balloon" she says, has not yet been made
practical enough as a means of transporta-
ton in searching for the poles. Though |
hardly expect that Lieutenant Peary will
ever return alive, / believe he has a better
chance of reaching the pole than either
Andree or Wellman. The last named has a
party with him that is too large. The larger
the party the more provisions must be taken
along and the more progress is impeded.'

Dog Day Hats. Gypsy shoes, JeNcIry
ana Hnlf-Mourning Costumes.
NEW YORK, Aug. 5.-This is the time
Of the year when the shoppers occupation
IS gone. But every woman, who has a
heart for clothes, is spreading her
,plumes or noting the belongings Of her
feminine %neighbors,
Truth TO tell, there Is a very lively dis
play Of sartorial fancies to attract atten-
ton and nothing is OF more interest to the
curious than the smart outing costumes OF
women in mourning. A skirt OF ink black
pique, relieved by divers small 1ounces Of
black lawn, edged with white lace and
every rufle headed by a row of narrow
white braid, is sure to make a striking
point In any landscape. With such a gar
ment the mourners assume white pique
coats, the broad revers, collar and cuffs OF
black pique, and this goes over a black
muslin shirtwaist, finely striped in white.
Women who are not mourners wear short
white twill coats, faced ON revers, cuffs and
collar with a bright solid color.
Mourning Hats. d.
Black and white fiat straw, braided In
sailor shape, is the choice hat among those
who are In summer black, and instead of
the sailor or familiar form a new variety
is conspicuous. The French sailor it is
called, having a rather small high crown
and a brim that is wider than usual, in
Ginning distinctly down toward the face.
The ribbon that clasps the crown Is tied
to one side and two narrow little streamers
fiutter over the right ear. On the whole
these are more becoming than the hard and
fast little head box we have worn so long,
and united femininity seems to favor sailors
of mixed straws. A plain white round
straw, with a black or white ribbon band.
is falling out Of good grace, and II there
is any generalization yet to be INDUCED
in with regard to trimmed hats 1t is to
comment on the multiplication of the small
tall shapes.
Women, whose clothes are significant OF
the future, certainly do not wear wide
headpieces. They will tell you that the
queer pretty crown shaped affairs of tulle
they go calling in are Peter the Great hats
but so far you CANT find one, of these at the
milliners. Explain what you want and she

A charming mode is that for little boys
who dress for the evening in either white
from top to toe or in white save the small
coat cut like the fathers dinner coat. Such
at least is the mode for young gentlemen
who are in schools preparatory for the col
lege career and the white Is duck. White
canvas shoes and a high turnover collar
with a white silk four-in-hand is the proper
arrangement, while mothers who guard the
good form of their sons clothes no longer
part their hair in the middle.
