SUNDAY GLOBE CHANCES.

Did you ever think of the accidents
that never happen, like the unsung songs
and unWritten poems that never get INTO
print? Many times a day in st. Pail
and every other city an accident is so
narrowly averted that the spectato IA r
ly shudder whenever they think of it.
The other day the "Glance Man saw
crowded interurban car escape crashing
into a hook and ladder outfit by super
human effort on the part of motorman
and driver. Somebody every day looks
death in the eye for the fraction of a
second and escapes by the faintest mar
gin.
1t is said that a half million peop.e in
New York are down with grip, ana a
quarter million in Chicago A heavy
mortality Is feared from pneumonia and
other diseases to follow.
This is the way Bishop Potter puts it
in New York: 1T is an appalling fact,
from the top to the bottom, from the
Judge on the bench the legislator in the
nails Of legislation to the policeman on
the beat they are believed to be pur-
chasable."

Long observation confirms the opinion
that health OF body with the little joys

The American people are inclined to look
at the practical side Of things and if
they should ffnd out that they had made
a gold-brick bargain, they will be apt
to make it interesting for the responsible
party. OF course. the islands are net
lacking in natural resources, but the
question is whether it will be possible
to develop them within reasonable
time.
Writing from one of the suu islands,
soldier boy. has these interesting things
TO say: There are plenty of good open
ings here for men who are willing to
Sacrlfce themselves and p oneer the W3y
IEere are a few. white men. probably
five or six, here who are in business and
all ale doing well. One fellow, a Ger
man. whose father was banished from
Germany for high treason and settled in
BorEeo in an early day. has coffee
plantation and owns the majority of the
slaves of tie island. He pays all Of his
slaves wages for their work and when
ever one wants his freedom he allows
him to buy it by paving the price he
paid for him. If a slave can get mora
lows him mis- freedom and he can pay him
back after he has earned it at the other
place. AS a result the government has
quite a number employed as street
sWeepers. Then there are some Eng isf.
men who came here ten months ago
prospecting for gold. They exhausted
most of their resources in the onterD isa
without results and finally invested the
balance in a secondhand pearl boat ami
q diving suit. Now they own steam
launch, whole feet Of pearl boats AMI
have money galore.
so you can see what can be done by a
person who has grit enough to take a few
chances. You see what keeps every bod,
cut of these islands tSu.u) is the fear OF
being cut in two with a bolo or having
a spear thrown through you. The fact
is. these MOroS are as harmless as IaO-
bits and will do anything in the world
for a white man who treats them well
Of course, there are lots of pirates, but
one man with a repeating rife can whip
range with their spears and boios. The
only show they have is to catch a man
asleep somewhere or slip up behind him
and cut off his head. But we have
learned to sleep with our eyes open ard
never turn our backs to anyone, friend
or foe"

ENDS HIS CAREER.
Explorer Conway Win Retire From
the Business.

New York, Jan. 26.-Sir Martin Con-
way, an explorer, who has contributed
much to what is known of the mountain
regions Of the world is at the Fifth Av
enue hotel, having recently returned
from his third trip of exploration 70
South America
Sir Martin. whose explorations have
extended over a period of ten years. ard
who has devoted nearly 80 years to sci
entlfle research, said last night that his
work in South America would mark the
close of his career as an explorer. EIe
said that he would maintain his interest
In scientific discoveries, but that in the
future he would organize and send our
exploring expeditions instead of going
himself.
Sir Martin said that he was about to
organize an expedition to go to Peru
next spring TO further explore the west
ern slope Of the Andes. He will sail
for England on Wednesday next, ard
will organize this expedition soon after
he arrives in his native country. The
eastern slope of the Andes mountains
affords afie1d for scientific research
which has immense possibilities Prac-
tically nothing is known about the Bot
any and nothing about the mineral re-
sources Of the vast region lying to the
east of the Andes. It is known of course
that this vast region has resources of in.
terest to science and of value in a COM
nercial sense, but it has been so little
explored as TO leave the world almost IN
the dark regarding its possibilities Much
is known about Venezuela and Colombia
but as yet little has been learned about
the interior OF Brazil Bolivia, Ecuador,
Peru and Argentine Sir Martin being
asked whether his explorations in South
America were prompted by scientific OBJ
jects or were for commercial purposes
said:
= have been interested in the subject
from scientific standpoint. It is ir,4-
nensely rich in minerals-how rich no
one knows,
DO you believe that American or
English capitalists may soon look to
that region as a promising field for in
veStment ?''
Probably not at present. Sir Martin
replied.
Capitalists are cautious and the min
eral resources of the region are as vet
an undetermined quantity. There can be
no question however that the entire ter
ritory to the east of the Andes is rich
In material minerals gold, silver, cop
Der. tin and other metals are there in
vast quantities-quantitie so great as
to make that region in the future more
productive of precious metals than eith-
er the Transvaa1 or the klondike."
