thin. his hair was slightly worn at
the crown and temples, and there were
dark circles under his eyes. Yet, for
all these signs of dissipation, he was
still a remarkably handsome man.

the old days we had called him Adonis.
and DOME had clung to him long after

from hard work. We were on a plateau
5000 meters high almost the whole
time. The aravan passed through the
Arka-Tagh, the Hottest group of noun
tains in the world, consisting of foul
parallel chains. We reached the neigh
borhood Of the sources of the Yang-tse-
Kfang, when we were forced to return.
Our scientific results are very i'm
portant and may be divided into topo-
graphical inquiries, autographed sur
veys, astronomical observations, mete-
geological measurements made three
times a day and geological, hydro
graphical and other observations. Many
hitherto quite unknown districts Of
Tibet have been successfully explored
by the expedition. There are no such
dangers to be encountered as in an enc
my's country, but many others which
completely PROSTATE men and animals.
One of the worst enemies is the west
ern gale, always accompanied by snow
and hail, and we suffered a great deal
from 1T. The cold on the plateau,
which is as high as II Einel towers, is
four degrees below zero F. It Is i'm
possible to warm oneself by walking
quickly or to breathe, and one has the
feeling that one must fall down. The
country abounds in wild animals, espe-
cially antelopes, bears, wild sheep and
goats, but no human beings were met
during "a days. Only an old inscription
on a rock showed that Mongols had
lived there IN former times"

that he would be able to make a four
weeks trip to the mountains near Te-

New York (Special).-R. G.. Dun &
Co.'S weekly review OF trade says:
The labor situation in many parts Of
the country is still seriously unsettled
and constitutes reason for hesitation
in some industries. discouraging new
operations which satisfactory conditions
would otherwise stimulate. But quick
decision is to be expected in some OF
these labor controversies, and in the
meantime trade is encouraged by re-
ports OF a satisfactory condition of win
ter wheat over large portion Of the
country. AS for sprirx wheat the crop
was put in under very favorable condi-
tions and there have been few unsatis-
factory reports.
Railroad earnings for May, 90 per
cent. in excess of 1000, and 23.z per
cent. over 1900. reflect continued ac-
