THE RAGE FOR THE POLE,

There've been races with yachts, And with horses and wheels, With steamships, balloons, And with automobiles; But over green pillows
 That freeze as they roll Now the nations are off
 In race for the pole. Bold Peary and Baldwin, In uniforms blue, The Duke of Abruzzi,
 And Bernier, too, And a dozen of others
 Are out, every soul, For the secret that lies
 At the heart of the pole. But let Briton and German And Russian and Jap All enter the lists
 In the great handicap; For when they arrive
 They will find at the goal old Glory afioat
 On the top of the pole. -Minna Irving, in Frank Leslie's Pop ular Monthly.

the corduroying Of one swamp
will make truthful the sign
board at that place which says
"l2 miles to Bemidji. About

sandy tracts and high ground, so
that heavy rains will neti interfere
with travel. Of course the kick
ers condemn the roads, but it is
foolish to expect the paths Of
pioneer life to be macadamized.
UP to the head of the lake the
road passes through black jack
pine and birch and by several
young but promising farms. A
few miles further northwest we
come into a Norway and white
pine tract, much of which, how
ever, has felt both the blight of
axe and fire. We are at the foot

AS was accurately f~oreshadowed in

Converse has resigned his office as
President of the National Tube Com
pany, to become a member OF the Exec
utive Committee of the United States
Steel Company, and has been succeeded
by Mr.. E. j. Hearne, formerly of this
city. but now of P%ittsburg, whittier he
removed upon becoming one of the gen.
eral officers of the big corporation. and
where he has been residing al the Hotel
Shenley. j. d. Culbertson, also of this
city, and prominently identified with
tube interests since the formation of
the combination, becomes Third Vice
President and Treasurer. The promo
ton of these gentlemen, lifelong resi-
dents of Wheeling, was heard yesterday
with qualification by their old friends
in Wheeling and vicinity. There was
considerable anxiety to know whether
or not Messrs. Hearne and Culbertson
would remove to New York, but while
the exact fact cannot be stated this
morning, the probabilities are that they
will not go, at least not for the present.
Mr.. Culbertson was in New York yes
terday, and Mr.. Hearne was not In
Pittsburg. and was also, presumably in
the East. Careful enquiries made il bust
ness circles in Pittsburg last evening by
a representative of the Register, result
ed in the conclusion that neither gen.
tleman would remove ( New York per-
manently, although both, as a matter
of course, will have frequent occasion
to visit that city on business matters.

The Pennsylvania railroad track at
Caldwelps run was the scene of a fatal
accident yesterday morning about seven
o'clock. An Ohio River passenger
train, No. 1, and two hand cars carry
ing between them about fifteen mem
bers of the Pennsylvania work gang
from Steubenville, who were on their
way from that point to Benwood, col
lided, killing n man and injuring
two Others seriously.
The dead man is:
Florito Dibedeneto, Italian, died of
his injuries four hours after reaching
the hospital.
The seriously injured are:
Henry Bishop, American, right foot
badly mashed. Seriously bruised about
the head. Will recover.
Dominick Deserio, Italian, nose split
open, scalp wounds and bruises. Not
serious.
Owing to the dense fog which pre-
vailed at the time in that section of
the city, neither the train crew nor the
work gang were aware of the others
presence until the crash came owing
to the noise The three men who were
injured were on the foremost car. No.
l was backing slowly out of the yards
farther south. The cars toe were only
under about half speed.
When the real coach of the passen-
ger doomed into view through the fog
less than a cars length ahead several
men saw it and gave the warning. A
great many jumped, but three were
caught Happily the reduced speed at
which the cars and tran were running
averted a o serious accident. AS it
was both hand cars were literally splin-
tered.
All three of the injured men were re-
moved to the Haskins hospital and
everything possible done to relieve
their suffering. D~ibedeneto sustained
a severe fracture Of the skull. The
brain was badly lacerated and he never
recovered consciousness. His remark
able vitality sustained him until about
noon. Bishop, the American. had his
light foot so badly crushed that it had
to be amputated. He was also serious
ly cut and bruised about the head. The
surgeons, however, entertain every hone
Tor his recovery. Describes Injuries
are nc at all serious. His nose was
Dadly mashed and split open and he
sustained several bad scalp wounds. A
number of other men in jumping from
h wreck were badly bruised. but
none seriously enough to prevent their
working.
AS soon as the injured men had been
started to the hospital the gang pro-
ceeded to Benwood and completed the
work there and later were shifted TO
the creek bridge up town. Bad luck
seemed to pursue them. While shovel
ing sand hurriedly off a gondola for a
filling, in order to get out of the wav
OF the Ohio Valley express, an Italian
laborer got out Of time. The man next
to him struck him on the finger of the
right hand, cutting it off with the blade
OF the shovel.
