The antarctic continent-for every
thing indicates that the great ice cap
OF the south pole covers land and not
sea-presents attractions to no one but
the scientific observer. There is no
life there, either human or beast, no
vegetation. Penguins have their rook-
cries at some points where the stu
pendous wall of glacier is interrupted,
but that is all. There are no fisheries.
T. is a region of ice and volcanic fire
and desolation, but the secrets which
it holds for terrestrial science are OF
the first value

The Peace Treaty.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-THE president
will submit the peace treaty to the SEN
ate during the present session, that
much has been definitely determined
upon. The text is still lacking here,
and, as the con, missIoners have not
thought proper to entrust the document
to the mails, it will not reach Washing
ton before next Saturday. Although de-
sirous of placing it before the senate at
the earliest opportunity, the president
will not be able to do so until a week
after it's receipt, for the reason that con-
gress will be in the holiday recess.
Meanwhile, the treaty will not be given
to the public Strong pressure has ibeen
brought tosbear already to change this
decision, but strict observance OF the es-
tablished custom in such cases will be
followed, in order to excite useless ami
mostly against the treaty on the part OF
sticklers for the observance of the court
esy due the senate.

Renewed Efforts TO Relieve Suffering
Among the Poor of Havana to Be
Made at Once.

NRw YORK, Dec. IA dispatch to
the World from Bavana says: The
Spanish troops will not be able to eva
cuate Havana by Christmas, as was ex-
pected. Although the soldiers have been
withdrawn from the suburbs already,
the city will be held until the last mo-
ment agreed on by the commissioners.
General Arolas aaid:
The Spanish government will try to
retire from all military POSSESSIONS by
December IS, but it will not be possible
for the Americans to take charge until
the specified time. The American Off
cials will go into the custom house be-
fore that date. but Spain will still retain
control and be credited with the receipts
until the end of the year"
Richard G. HoWland, who came here
as the representative of sundry relief as
sociations, sailed for home today. He
had thoroughly investigated the condi-
tions of the poor in Havana, and will re-
port with view to supplementing Red
Gross work. His inquiries revealed a
terrible state of affairs in town. At
least SO, 900 people are practically des-
titute, living in horrible novels and
afflicted with all kinds of loathsome
diseases. Medical attention is needed
before even food, and the segregation oi

plants is imperative. Yellow fever is
rampant in the lower part of the city
These cases are without medical atten-
tion, and the first task of the new ad-
ministration will be to remove the sick

Execution of Branton.

EUGENE, Or, Dec. 17.-Sheriff With
ers will be prepared to carry out the
order of the court IN the matter of hang
ing Claud Branton next Friday. Prep
arations for the hanging has been de-
layed, as it was thought more than like
ly that the court would grant a stay of
execution, but no order to that effect has
been made. This morning an order was
placed for the material necessary to pre-
pare the scaffold. A space 35x40 feet on
the east side of the county jail will be
enclosed with tight fence, "a feet high,
and the path from the Jail entrance to
this enclosure will be enclosed with a
high fence, to insure perfect safety. The
sheriff is now besieged with requests for
invitations to the hanging.
