DROWNED BOY RESUSCI1ATED.
Remarkable Return to Life Under
Treatment After Twenty-Five
Minutes In the Mater,

The superintendent of the life saw
ing service has verified in every detail
the remarkable case of resuscitating
a person apparently drowned. The
case was that of S;anleT 5. Holmes,
child 5h years old, who was one
of a party who fell from capsized
boat near the Herford Inlet life saw
ing station at Anglesea, y. j. Capt.
Ludlow and several members of the
life saving crew set to work to re-
suscitate the child after he had been
in the wafer full % minutes.
The boy was not breathing and
there was no sign of life. The res
cuers used the usual means to pro.
duce artificial respiration. and
worked three-quarters of an hour be-
fore any sign of vitality appeared
The efforts were continued, and four
hours after the boy was taken from
the water he regained full conscious
ness.

IS HIS LAST TRIP.
Mrs. Peary, Wife of Explorer, Starts
North in Search Of Husband.
Declares She VIII Not Permit Him
Again TO Go In search of the
North PoIe-Hopes to Find
Him ut Cape sabine.

Mrs. Robert L. Peary, wife of the
arctic explorer, has left for Sidney,
{. h., where She will join the steam
er Windwarl, bound north to meet
Lieut.. Peary's party.
From Sidney" said Mrs, Peary,
I'VE shall sail straight to Etah, ON
the coast of Iceland. We suppose
Mr.. Peary is AT Cape Sabine, ON the
opposite shore of the sound. The
sound is about - miles across, and
should it be free of ice we ought to
cross in few hours, although the
passage may require a week. If we
reach the sound, cross, have NO delay
in meeting Mr.. Peary and his party
at Cape Sabine, and can return be
fore the sound fills with ice, this
fifth and last relief expedition will
have been success. y great many
obstacles, however, may be met.
In the first place, we know moth
ing of Mr.. peary's whereabouts for n
certainty. Should he not be ut Cape
Sabine and the natives have no infor-
nation of him, then there will be
nothing to do but wait until he
comes. Might not that mean another
winter in the north? don't know.
Naturally, we shall not come back
without him. | should not care to
put in another winter Ike that one
spent in waiting for him, | knew
that time what il is to be desperate

I'VE have every hope, as we had
when we started that time, that my
husband will be waiting for us at
Cape Sabine, but confess all the cir
cumstances of this expedition are not
SO promising as | would like. | am
worried about the health of my hus-
band and his party. No other polar
