WILL NOT TRY AGAIN
De Windt Has Enough of Journey
ing in Icy Lands.
Arctic Traveller Talks About His
Overland Trip from Paris to New
YOrk-Has No Desire TO
Repeat It,

After nearly perishing on his third
attempt to travel from Paris to New
York overland, Harry de Windt has ar
rived at his destination,
Mr.. de Windt left Paris on December
10, 1901, with three companions, deter
mined to demonstrate that the pro-
posed Transsiberian and Alaskan rail-
road was practicable, and that it would
be possible to make the journey from
Paris to New York by rail if such line
was ever constructed.
1--WE have no doubt that the railroad
will be constructed some time, and be-
lieve it will not be many years before
one may take the trip by rail, said Mr..
de Windt. Ten thousand dollars, how
ever, would not induce me to take the
same trip again as we made it."
De Windt and his companions were
found nearly dead from exposure in a
cave on the Siberian coast by Capt. Cot
tie, of the whaler William Bayliss.
This was early last June. They
crossed Behring sea in the United
States revenue cutter Thetis, and after
that their hardships were nearly over.
The story of their trip is a continu-
Gus record of struggle against mighty
obstacles. Undaunted by two previous
failures they fought their way on, de-
termined to succeed. The first stage
of the journey was made over the
Transsiberian railway. This took
them as far as Irkutsk. There they
embarked on trip of 1000 miles to
Yakutlz, travelling the entire distance
in horse sleighs. Yakutsk has the
reputation of being the coolest town
on earth, and Mr.. de Windt declares
the reputation is well earned.
Speaking of that part of his journey,
the traveller said:
1.-THE distance was covered by means
Of 122 drivers and 1872 horses. The

According to Prof. Baldwin Spencer,
formerly of Oxford, now of Melbourne
university, the blacks of central Aus
tralia are free from one ''white mans
burden" He has spent several years
making chronological Investigations
among them, and one of his discoveries
was that a mother-in-law was not al
lowed to come within a mile of the
mia-mia" (Nu) of her married daugh-
ter. If she did so the husband was au-
thorized by the tribal law to use his
club.

total cost for each sleigh was under
$3.50"
From Yakutsk the travellers journey
took them 700 miles to Nerkoyansk,
thence northeast 1900 miles to the
town of Srednikolynisk.
THE sleighs that brought us from
IrkUtsk were discarded at Gakutsk for
small reindeer sleds about seven feet
by three, covered in bycanvas and rein
deer SKINS" said Mr.. de Windt Bear
skins formed the beds and there we lay
at full length, day after day, night
after night, for the next two months,
while a Yankute driver urged on his
deer train. Light furs were useless in
that region.
"The traveller bound for the Kolyma
district must take all his provisions in
a frozen state, for food is scarce along
that lonely tract of 1,SO0 miles. The
reindeer stations are $50 to 200 miles
apart, but shelter huts are located at
shorter intervals. These are little
houses Of wood and water in the form
of slabs of ice, but nothing else.
The suspension difficulties Of that
overland journey from Paris to New
York can be realized only by those who
have encountered them.
From Srednikolynisk our next dash
was 1000 miles to the shore of Behring
sea. dogs being our motive power. The
cold was terrible. At times the Their
mometer registered rs degrees below
zero, and for 500 miles we did not see
a hut"
At last the inhospitable seashorc
was reached, and there the entire par
ty nearly persisted from exposure and
hunger. They were found at place
called Whadyluk by Capt. Cottle, who
supplied them with provisions and Of
fered to take them off in his boat
This offer De Windt declined.
After reaching Cape Nome De Windt
and his companions went to Seattle.
and from there to San Francisco.
Twice before De Windt had failed in
the effort, once being driven back by
unfriendly savage tribes in northern
Siberia, and once turned back by the
war in China.

HOW HE CAUGHT EDISON.
SERVER PRESENTED SUBPOENA WHEN
INVENTORS AUTOMOBILE
BROKE DOWN.

Had II not been for breakdown Of his
automobile in Bloomfield on Monday afternoon.
probably Thomas A. Edison. the inventor, would
not have been compelled 10 appear before Com
missioner Shields, in the Federal Building, to-
morrow. TO give testimony in suit that has
been brought against him by the New-fork
Phonograph Company.
Many are the suits that are brought against
Mr. Edison on account of patents and alleged
infringements. Because OF this fact. Mr.. Edi
son has become subpoena wise" He doesn't like
TO be bothered with subpenas. and his assist
ants and watchmen around his premises in
Orange are aware of il. The New-York Phono-
graph Company has been trying for some time
to get Mr.. Edison on the stand. but could not
subpoena him. Last week, the story goes. the
company put several subpcenas in the hands OF
special men. with instructions to be particularly
vigilant as Mr. Edison wanted for the
hearing on Friday. One OF these subp9nas was
given TO James l. Andem. jr who knew Mr..
Edison by sight. Young Mr.. Andem tried to get
TO the inventor once twice. but could not.
Andem standing in front OF a relatives
house in Bloomfield Monday. when he saw
an automobile come whizzing along. AS IL ap-
preached he noticed the driver work the levers
suddenly. The machine veered and TO a
sudden stop and the driver and another man
got out and began to investigate. Andem rec
uEnized Mr.. Edison. Stepping Up 10 him. he
asked:
rs this Mr. Edison?"
Speak up: I'm little deaf" said MT. Edi-
son. holding his hand TO his ear in trumpet
fashion.
Are you Mr. Edison?' Andem shouted
Yes. yes. I'm Mr.. Edison. What can do
for you?" asked Mr. Edison.
Just take this subpoena" said Anden,
thrusting IL into his hand
Mr.. Edison took the paper. and when he saw
what II was he laughed.
Young man" said he Il like the UP and
doing style OF young men. / like the enterprise
OF a young man who can be on the spot to serve
a subpoena just where his victims automobile
breaks down. What do you get out OF this as
fees?"
Two dollars and thirty cents" said Andem.
Come along to that store and I'll pay you
now" said Mr.. Edison. who had nothing smaller
than So bill
Andem got his honey, together with hearty
handshake from the inventor.
The New-York Phonograph Company alleges
in its complaint that Mr.. Edison. in considera-
ton of $4,000 contracted several years ago TO
refrain from selling certain monographs and
attachments in this State during the life OF the
PLAINTIFFS contract The company asserts that
there has been a breach of contract, and asks
for damages.

with his district captains planning for the ex-
cursion July 30 and thinking up schemes to

legitimate thinking these days than he ever did
before in his career. He is getting the hurrahs,
but he is not having easy time In picking off
Goodwin and Sheehan men. that the nov

"Sheehan and Goodwin are dead ones" said
Devery. The people want live ones In the dis

We'll soon have him in the cool off"
How you getting on with the trIumvi-

TO CONDUCT CAMPAIGN HERE.
CONGRESSMAN BABCOCK ESTABLISHES
HEADQUARTERS IN THE ST.
JAMES BUILDING.

Congressman Joseph ". Babcock chairman
OF the Republican Congress Campaign Com
mittee yesterday engaged campaign head
quarters in the St. James Building. at Broadway
and Twenty sixth-st. Mr.. Babcock will conduct
the fight for another Republican majority in
the House from the new headquarters as he
regards this city a better place for efficient
paign operations than Washington. where the
Congress campaigns heretofore have been man
aged. Mr.. Babcock has been chairman of the
campaign committee since 1894. lie is staying
al the Waldorf Astoria. To a Tribune reporter
he said last night:
This country. enjoying a food tide of
prosperity. is not going to go back on the
principles Of protection TO American industry
laid down by the late President Mckinley. The
outlook for the campaign is growing better all
the time. and have doubt that We shall
secure a working majority in the next House.
II is rather early i'm the campaign 10 speak in
telligently of the situation in the various States
Doubtless there close districts here and
there where local issues will lose us a mem
ber. But for every such district we shall gain
one somewhere else. In the State Of New-York
confident Of making a net gain OF two
or three members"
is there anything significant in your open
ing headquarters in this city this fal?"
This city Is extremely convenient centre
for conducting a campaign on practical and
successful lines. II Is the commercial centre or
the nation The manufacturers and merchants
Of the country come here often, and IL is easy
TO get into communication with them. We shall
retain the bureau at Washington as dis
tributing station for literature but the general
direction of the campaign will be from here"
Mr.. Babcock will have as colleagues at the
local headquarters J. a. T. Hull, of Iowa, chair
man Of the executive committee of the Con-
gress Committee: James S. Sherman, of
Utica vice-Chairman OF the committee, and
Jesse Overstreet OF Indiana, secretary of the
committee. The new headquarters will occupy
five rooms the sixth floor of the St. James
Building. overlooking Broadway. While the new
quarters were engaged yesterday and few
things moved in, Mr.. Babcock said that he did
not expect much practical work would be done
before the first week in August.
