arctic seas. The Royal Geo
graphical society and other English
scientific organizations were back of
the project of further Gouth."
Since that tire no tidings have come
from either the ship or crew, and none
have been expected, as she is not due
to return until the spring Of next year.
The societies back of the voyage had
mapped out three seasons task for
the ship and crew, from which It is
expected to derive much information
of great value to the scientific world.
Capt. Scott, the commander OF the
Discovery, was given minute and ex-
plicit sailing instructions, and was pro-
yided with number of zinc cylinders
which were to be filled with the rec
ords Of the progress Of the expedition,
and these were to be deposited at
fixed places, including Cape Adare,
Possession island, COulman island,
Wood bay, Franklin island and Cape
Crozier, if landing could be effected.
Beyond this point all was guess work
as to the movements of the expedi-
ton, depending entirely on the condi-
ton Of the ice pack during the sum-
mer season.
While nothing has been heard or ex-
pected from the expedition since the
time of leaving New Zealand, and
while it is yet nearly a year before
the date Fixed for its return, yet, to
guard against the disaster which expe~
ditions into the great frozen seas of
either the north or south are at all
times exposed to, the same societiea

inal Paul Smith still lives, surround
ed by a scene vastly different from
that which once formed his habitat.
He is an old Adirondack guide and
fisherman of the best type, who
years ago opened a tiny hotel in the
woods. 1t prOspered; hunting was
good, and Paul knew how to find it;
a maze of tiny lakes furnished trout
fishing in abundance, and people had
a good time BY successive additions
the house grew. By and by a stock
company was formed to take charge
of it, cunningly retaining Smith as a
personal asset; and now 600 and
more guests are there cared for dur
ing the summer months in the only
summer region of which I know
where men are as numerous as
women.
This development of old guides
cabins into magnificent hotels is not
uncommon in the woods, though
paul Smiths is the most notable
instance. Old man Beede is still ac-
lively engaged in running the big
ST. Hubert's inn in the Keene valley,
though it, too. is an Incorporated
company; the post Office is still
called ''Beede's,'' and in winter Beede
holds the fort alone ina tiny annex
near the hotel. Dave Helms, noted
old-time guide, lives just above the
hotel he used to keep on Long lake,
and still as a special favor ''takes
OUT parties of his former guests.
I don't know any place in the coun-
try where fashion and five dollars a
day board rub elbows so closely with
''men with the bark on" 1t does
both parties good, fancy.

ern empire. In North America her do
minion extended from ocean to ocean;
With her great military power she
threatened the very existence of the
English. To-day the sole remnant of
New France in the North America are
two rocky islands, ST. Pierre and
Miquelon, off the coast of New Found
land. All the interests in the little
archipelago rests in the former.
Miquelon has no harbor and only few
hundred inhabitants. ST. Pierre is
gay, busting little town, veritable
bit of old France. The applecheeked
women with their Normandy caps, the
creak of the OK cart, the fanfare of the
town crier's bugle, all remind one of
the wildly pictureque Brittany and
the lovely Norman wales.
It's name, ST. Pierre, appears in the
early maps, and the little island has an
ancient history. In its more modern
annals the story of this small colony
is a fragment of the history of old
France, Liliputian reproduction of
that eventful and tragic story. The
little island, like the Mother Country,
had its revolution, its reign of terror
it's tree ofliberty, its Jacobin club, and,
under the empire, a miniature coup
d'etat. The whole was on the small
est possible scale, veritab BILE tempest
in teapot.
This diminutive French settlement
has suffered from storm and tempest,
fire and sword; it has been cast down
and utterly demolished by the ele-
ments and the English over and over
again. 1t speaks we'll for French en-

OWEN LANGDON'S GOSSIP OF
NEW YORK AND ITS PEOPLE

/ believe this is the first hotel to be
designed within a business sky-scrap-
err: not the first restaurant to be so
placed. In all there are probably a
dozen big and famed eating rooms in
lower New York which occupy the
vantage ground of the roof That of
the Jersey Central railroad is known
to most western travellers. 1t over
looks the bay and Staten Island, and is
a favorite place to go on summer even
ings. That known as "the Eyrie," in
the American Tract Society building
occupies what would be the garnet in
private house and offers from every
one of its four sides fine outlooks upon
the city. But for the most part the
eating places in downtown buildings
are those of the great lunching clubs
a peculiarly New York institution;
whereof the Hardware, the Fulton and
the Lawyers are the best known. More
business deals, one is tempted to say,
are put through over the tables in
these places than in the offices beneath
them. Only the brokers lack dis
tinctive eating place; the truth being
that most of them eat no luncheon at
all. the middle of the day being too
precious to use in that fashion.

are Z IL d III Ii ;
quite as much by contrast as in them
selves. And the mistress of Blenhelm
is of course a great figure in British
social life. Not more than dozen Ia
dies of the nobility surpass her in rank,
and this small mum Der includes several
appear in society.
The young Marlboroughs are popu-
lar in both countries. The slender,
boyish-looking duke has served in the
war in South Africa and is in personal
character a great contrast to his ia
Their. The duchess is charitable, genial
and has the art of not trying to do
too many things at once.
While the maids of the duchess are
preparing her trunks, which of course
she calls "boxes" by this time, her
cousin, the younger Cornelius, is per-
severing with his railroad devices. The
other day an engine equipped with the
firebox which is his chief invention
made a mile on the Harlem tracks in
AZ seconds, drawing a heavy train of
five passengers. The fireboX is espe-
ciaIly successful in saving coal and
in lessening repair bills. Cornelius is
the only one of his famous family who
shows in any marked degree the in
ventive genius of the old commodore;
though perhaps the fondness of his
cousins and brothers for running au-
tomobiles may be classed as an out
cropping of the old instinct.
