Big APPLES FOR
ST. Louis Fair.

Hood River will be well represented
in the fruit display at the st. Louis world q
fair next year. Joseph A. Wilson, man
ager of the Hood River Apple Growers
union, last week shipped to Superin-
tendent W. II. Wehrung, at st. Louis,
SO boxes of the finest apples ever grown
in Oregon. The fruit will be kept in
cold storage until the exposition opens
in May, when it will be put on exhi-
ton with apples from all parts of the
world. Apples like these ought to have
no trouble in carrying off the gold med
ais. The fruit was gathered up and care
fully packed by MIR. Wilson. He paid
81 box for most of the apples and
must await the pleasure of the state of
Oregon TO; reimbursement.
The varieties sent we're: Spitzenburg,
10 boxes; Yellow Newtowns, six boxes I;
Arkansas Black, four boxes; Hyde's
King of the West, four boxes; Oitley,
three boxes: Gano, two boxes; Della
ware Red, two boxes; Genatin, one box ;
Winesap, one box.
Those who donated their apples free
were F. w. Angus and II. G. Hengst.
E. Locke had intended to furnish some
apples for exhibition, but the fine speci.
mems he had laid aside got mixed up by
his packers, and were sold with his
other apples.

An Interesting Letter, Which TelIS of Life in a Remote
 Region.

Although on the confines of the Arg tic circle, the people of this section o not need much of the pity that is be- slowed upon them by their friends on the great outside" as the followl 2 article will show. It was not intende d for publication. but it is so good that t is worth printing. 1t shows how the isolate miners of the KougarOk cele- brated last Christmas. The letter was written by C. 0. Stiner, a Dahl creek mining man, to his friend, E. C. Will, of this city:
 "While you, and all other Nomeites. were celebrating and having merry Christmas time, l must tell you what we were doing up on Dahl creek. One would not suppose that up here, after the "blacS eye that Quartz and Dahl got in l9J0 that you could rustic up a corporal's guard at this time of the year, let alone rustlng enough men to have genuine "oluw-out.' Only in one respect were we short t-handed. We were shy d few girls, only one lady be- ing present, Mrs. Calvin having that honor.
 On Dec. 24 Dave Johnson went around to all the boys and invited them down to turkey dinner for Christmas In a few hours after Dave had been here John Hinkeman, the other roadhOuse proprietor, came around and invited all the boys to his place to paltake of a light lunch and sample his stock of liquors and cigars. Nobody thought there was going to be anything swell yet all were on hand to partake of what was to be had. To x. P. Olsen was given the task of suggesting an elabO- rate menu. His fertile imagination was equal to the occasion. and not only did he arrange the bill of fare, but he displayed great artistic skill in design ing and embellishinT the border. No copies can be had, as he would have to make each one as he made the original. No copying materials being at hand. l would like to have copy myself. but Olsen only made one, and that one was given to Mrs. Calvin. After Olsen had prepared the copy, it was handed over to Harry Burnett and Pete Ieager for fultillment. and how well they did their duty can only be attested to by those who were lucky enough to be their guests. Everything from the represen- tative soup to the mukluk Java was there, and, without any exaggeration whatever. was as good, if not better, than any meal 1 ever sat down to.

 Lieut.. Schwatka had the same na- tives, including Joe. who would select his old companions, with whom he hunted and tished while with Dr. Hall. They would lead Schwatka and Glider astray, and the former being an army officer would not have astronomical in- struments, while Dr. Hall was we'll equipped with all kinds. and the natives knew they could not lead him astray, except by falsehood and deception and he had faith that survivors of Frank lin's party were still living, thus caus- ing him to believe their stories.
 The Iwilliks and the Nachilias were bitter enemies, and the former feared to meet Nachilias in their own terri tory. Subsequently,,d during a conver. sation with Ebeisbing, on the passage to New Bedford, he said: "When we reach Nachilia country, no stop; [willik man all aid: me afraid: Dr. Hall some. times stop few hours and talk to Ma. chilia man, buy something's, then travel, go; Nachilia man come along, me all time afraid"

 No, no, Iwillik man afraid; he no want to go: Dr. Hall couldn't shoot, couldn't kill Tooktoo: Pat no Till Tooktoo Antone kill nothing; too many men can't shoot. Indian man afraid"
 From the natives point of view great bearded warriors such as he had seen in England and Scotland were expect ed but Dr. Halls party consisted of d few beardless youths, and a few others who couldn't kill deer. or anything to eat, and ochwatka and Glider were just as helpless. IL was, therefore, to be expected that the lwiIhks would side track Sch%atka's $ party from an ene- my's country, knowing their lives were in danger
 The Encyclopedia of Arctic EXplora- tion says that little has been written concerning Dr. Halls second eXpedi- ti0n, and nothing by himself. He had armed himself with full and complete notes which he intended to furnish the voyage and the discovery of the north pole, of which he felt confident. He worked laboriously to prevail upon the government 10 lit out another Arctic expedition. and through the influence of General Grant. the necessary amount was appropriated. Dr. Hall at once commenced selecting his officers and crew. CapIain Sydney 0. BuddingtOn, the sailing master, had made eleven whaling voyages covering d period oi 50 years; Geurge E. Tyson was selected as assistant navigator, Hubbard Ches- ter, first mate, William Morton, second mate: the latter, 20 years before, had been Dr. Kane best man. The others were veteran whale men, and were known to the write during these wears. They were accustomed to commando. Hall was not. Formerly black and later newspaper man, he was an allarOund land-lubber.

The doctor pro- nounced the cause of his death appo- plexy. but Hall believed that poison had been placed in his cup uf coffee. In the delirium which prededed death, he imagined that every person who went near him was endeavorin. to kill him.

Query Colnlnn
.4..n,s EDITED BY WILL HENRY a-ss4.

Question Editor, NUGGET:-Would you kindly answer the following ques- tions:
 l. Where is meerschaum for pipes found?
 ?. Can you go 10 Liverpool by water from San Francisco without crossing the equator?
 3. How many feet can any size cen trifucal pump lift water-what has been the greatest?
 f. What has been the shortest time Nome?
 5. Is it easier to lift water p feet up in the air and let it run ny gravtaton 600 feet. than to force the water G01 feet to the middle of a claim?
 6. Does the sun rise and set on the equator the same all the year round?
 LAND SAILORS OFGRASS GULCH.
 These questions are answered in their order as follows:
 l. Meerschaum for pipes is found in various parts of Germany and Austria.
 ,. Yes. You may cross the Pacific, through the China sea, Straits of Ma lacca, Indian ocean, Gulf of Alden. Red Sea, Suez canal, Mediterranean, strait of Gibraltar and Atlantic ocean to Liv- erpool without crossing the equator. although you will probably be within 100 mile or so of it.
 3. Next to the direct acting steam pump the lrifngal pump is the most valuable inst ument for raising water to great heights that has yet been in- vented. As he name denotes the ef- fects produced ny centrifugal force to which water can he forced de- pends upon the velocity of the revolv- ing waves. When using centrifugal pump water should be delivered to the desired point with as little velocity as possible for any velocity that the water then possesses has been produced at eh0 SN PNAoS VI ehS ShS' y doSo to Nti l'C the pump. In all pumps, whether lifting, force, steam, single or double acting or centrifugal, the number of foot pounds needed to work the pump is equal to the weight of the water in pounds multiplied by the vertical dis tance in feet between the level of the water in the source and the point of discharge. plus the work necessary to overcome the friction and other resist ances.
 4. Concerning the rising and setting of the sun, the shortest day in this lat itude is Dec. 2lst, when the sun appears to rise at 10 q. III. and set at 2:lO D. m. Allowance for reiraction, dip of the horizon. parallax, semi-diameter, twi- light refractors and absrration must be taken into consideration in calculating the true position of the sun. The fact that our afternoons begin to lengthen about.Dec Sth is due To the rapid de-

 ,. As question , is stated the gravity aqueduct and the pipe through which the waIer is to be forced each being GOO feet long must necessarily be the two leg, of an isosceiee triangle, the verteX of which must be perpendicular to the center of the p feet vertical pipe which is the base. This do not think is intended. Since friction varies Ci- rectly q, the length of the pipe, it would be easier to elevate the water 25 feet than to force it coo feet 10 the same elevation.

~ R. HALL failed to make a search of the northern shores of King D Williams Land, or indeed of
 any part of it. What relics he brought home to the United States he bartered for and obtained from the na- tives. The trip he made was q hurried one, returning to the musk-ox country, west of North Pole lakes, during the spring months while the snow was still on the ground. His interpreter, Ebeir- biug, and hs native guide slau2 2htei cd the musk-ox in such large numbers that Dr. Hall had to stop them, by cutting off their supply If ammunition.
 Lieut. Sch watka and Col. Glider claim to have made q thorough search of the northern shore of this inhoSpitable island and settling the question for all time, establishing the fact of the loss of the Franklin records. Glider so writes, but let me here say that this is not a fact. Schwatka and Glider met the ,Ook jookliks, and from them heard the usual stories about lost white men, says Glider. 1 never heard of this tribe, though they might have inhabited Capt. Backs Great Fish river, and would have had sad stories to tell about starving white men. Schwatka could barter and sell, and also find skeletons
