night Miss Milly Elliott Seawell, the

of James X. Hackett in Don Caesars
Return" The Admiral entered the the
alter without attracting attention an
proceeded to the box. Before he was
fairly seated the large audience present
recognized him and storm of applause
swept through the big auditorium.
Women waved their handkerchiefs and
men shouted. This continued until Ad-
miral Schley was compelled to come
forward and bow to the audience. There
was then a renewal of the ovation, and
it was several minutes before sufficient
quiet prevailed for the play to proceed.

EXPLORATION

Correspondence of the Associated
Press from st. Petersburg says: Via
dimir BogOraz, leader of the Siberian
department of the Jesup North Pacific
expedition, who returned to st. Peters,
burg after nearly year and a half Of
exploration in North Siberia, was in
vited to lecture before the Imperial
Geographical Society in this city last
night. A large company assembled 20
hear him, but word came at the last
moment that he had been expelled from
the city by the police. The cause Of
this action was said to be an article
published by Bogoraz in a local news
paper.
Instead of Bogoraz' lecture a letter
was read from his companion, Vladimir
Jaukelson, who is still in Siberia. jack
elson said that anthrometric measure
ments had been made among the Kari
axis and three skulls obtained. Thirty
photographic cylinders were filled WIN
Kariak utterances and songs. Clay
objects were found by excavations.
This is held to prove that a higher civil
Hzation once prevailed in Kamchatka,
since the present tribes are ignorant of
po,,ery.
The expedition left San Francisco
March II, 1900 for Vladivostock to
gather material about the origin Of
the American races and their Lffnities
with Asiatic tribes. In June, 1900 Boz
goraz went to the Anodyr country, and
on July At Jackelson and his COM
panion, l.Xelrad of Zurich,went to ClJi-
ga. BugOraz made a study of the kam-
chatka and Kariaks, and then proceed
ed northward nearly to Behrng straits
He sledged about 10000 versts. His en-
tire collection embraces 10000 objects,
and a comparative grammer of the ma
tive languages shows them to belong
to the EsquimauX group.
Another member IF tie expedition,
/ Norman Buxton, who directed the ZOO
| logical and botanical work, shipped
siXty-fve tons of collections to New
/ York by sea. Buxton left NladivostocH
on October oath and reached MOSCOW
after twenty-one days. on the way over
Buxton fell in with some of the Amer

They have been released for the wintvl,

certainly do not understand the present

not expecting these Southern white

MRS L. J BACOTE.

We take pleasure in presenting to
our readers this week the sketch of a
young western woman whose studious
habits from early childhood, combined
with natural talents have brought her
well to the front In the musical and
educational world. Mrs. Bacote, for
merly Miss Bledsoe OF Topeka, Kansas,
began her public school life at the age
of five and gradua' ed from the Topeka
High School In 1900. making first rank
In German and Latin, and is still q
student of both these languages. For
eleven years she has pursued the study
OF music, studying for three years of
this time at Washburn College, To-
peka, and for one year in the New
England Conservatory, Boston. Mas
sachusetts. The pipe organ as well as
the piano has received her attention.
Thus she manipulstes both instru-
ments with grace and ease. For six
years she was organ1st OF the B Street
Baptist church of Topeka, and her
plano forte recitals in Boston, Kansas
City, Topeka, Denver and else where,
have attracted large audiences. August
29d, 1901 Miss Bledsoe became the wife
OF Rev. s. w. Bsscote of the Second
Baptist church, gentleman and scholar
Of rare worth and financial ability. BY
her winsome and unassuming manner
Mrs. Bscote has readily won the hearts
not only of the parishiOners, but of The
people generally. Kansas City's gates
easily open to those who help to make
1t "a good place to live in"
