CAMEL OF THE ARCTIC.
Fate of the 1laskan Esquimau
Depends on Reindeer.

General Funston the United States military
commander in Alaska. has been investigating
the report that the Esquimaus in that Territory,
more particularly in the vicinity of Cape Nome
and Pilgrim River, are in danger of starvation
He finds some justification for the stories, and
has been instructed to extend relief. This. of
course would be only temporary in its effect.
Permanent measures of kind or another
are needed therefore. The determination Of the
whale seal and walrus along the coast and of
the caribou and moose further inland has de-
prived the natives of what were once their chief
food resources Among General Funston's rec
concentrations are these: There should he

the natives should be compelled to fish during
the salmon season. and all Of them that remain
about military posts should be compelled 10
work. He takes occasion to add that the
splendid work. of the Commissioner of Educa-
ton in introducing reindeer and instructng the
Alaskans in their and use bids fair, in the
course of a few years, to eliminate all danger
of distress among these people"
The scheme here referred to was conceived by
agent Of the United States Bureau of Education
for Alaska in 1885. and who has visited that
Territory every year since that time. Failing
to get an appropriation from Congress when
he first asked for it. he supplied with $1,000
by private individuals in 1891, and was thus

POE IND THE MINIGER.

\ well known theatrical manager who is dis

for his knowledge of literature, visited not
long ago by an aspiring playwright. He had
with him. he explained to the manager. the
manuscript of play based on one of Edgar
Allan Poe's stories. which he des-
tined to make a sensational hit the stage
The manager consented to hear the play and
listened with increasing interest as the play
wright read from his manuscript.
He was enthusiastic when the end
reached.
That's fine!" he exclaimed fine, Now I'll
tell you what I'll do You and Mr.. Poe IN
tomorrow and we'll talk this thing over"

New-York tribune., 1903-06-21

solution of the problem was found In tune
Alaska is likely to have not only as much meat
las her population possibly consume but much
more for expectation to the more densely set
tied districts of the United States. where mar
ket for reindeer tongues and hams could easily
be created. Besides, the reindeer COW gives 4
cupfuI of very rich milk as thick as cream and
making good cheese The quantity is small. Il
be sure but this milk stands dilution without
harm and is a great luxury under some circum.
stances.
Another exceedingly important to which
these animals put is transportation. \ pair
of reindeer hitched to a sled. can haul a load
of between 500 and 700 pounds at the rate Of
thirty-five miles day. The best record mada
in Alaska for a single day by reindeer ex-
press is ninety-five miles. By this method
freight and mail matter can be conveyed great
distances. The United States Government sent
mails from Cape Nome to Candle City, the
Arctic Ocean, 260 miles away, last winter in
about eight days. Dog teams would have re-
qured fifteen twenty days. Another point Of
difference between the two animals is that the
reindeer can find his food the road, whereas
that which dog requires must be carried along
on sledge when journey is made through
uninhabited region and a dog team cannot
haul enough to feed it for any considerable
distance The reindeer can be. and often is.
ridden like horse. Not only young people pre-
sumably of less than average weight, but mill
tary officers weighing fully 200 pounds havt
been carried by reindeer. When the latter are
employed beasts of burden however the,
packs rarely weigh over 100 pounds. Mr.. Grosve-
nor appropriately calls them the camels of the
Arctic.
To the mining camps along the Yukon and its
tributaries the reindeer has already proved vdlu-
, able. At those points butchers will pay frorp
$50 to S100 for a single animal, and a nals
broken to harness will often bring $50 Wnen
the supply has increased materially these qIo-
tatons may not hold good, but they appear to
hint of the relation between this feat
of Alaskan life and the development Of
Alaskan mineral wealth. Even if the animals
were much cheaper there would still be large
profit on them. In Siberia full grown bull or
doe of the Chukches species brings only 81 While
the more sturdy and powerful Tunguse deer sells
for 81 90 The cost of a fawn to its owner dur
ing the first year is scarcely more than 81 TEe

that they would not support horses, cattle or
even goats On the other hand peculiar moss,
on which the reindeer lives abounds in all
Arctic lands and is found in Alaska. More than
a dozen years ago Dr.. Jackson declared that at
least twenty thousand natives were in danger
of starvation if no means of feeding them
were provided. To let them experience such
fate would be disgrace to civilization, and
yet to transport provisions enough to that al
most inaccessible region would have been a
costly undertaking. Another and much better

enabled to secure a herd Of sixteen reindeer
from Siberia The government gave him $4,000
in 1894 $500 in each Of the next two years
and then larger amounts. The last four annual
appropriations have been $4,000 each. Alto
gether nearly one thousand reindeer have been
brought from Siberia, but by breeding the num-
ber in Alaska has now been increased to about
six thousand head. Inasmuch as the natives
have now learned how to care for them. and
as there is pasturage eno~gh for many millions.
the development is sure to proceed rapidly. says

DR. Gilbert H. Grosvenor, in THE National
Geographic Magazine for April: The time Is
coming when Alaska will have great reindeer
ranches like the great cattle ranches of the
Southwest and they will be no less profita BILE"
The first great service which these picturesque
and hardy creatures render is that they furnish
food to the natives. 1t was this consideration
primarily which led Dr. Jackson to recommend
the experiment. He noted the fact that there
were 400 900 square miles of country so barren

Revenue Cutter Tuscarora Has Work to
Do on Lake Erie.

MILWAUKEE,, Wis, Oct. 1S.-Milwau-
KEGS new revenue cutter will leave for
Cleveland. Ohio. tomorrow to take part
in the settlement of the international
dispute which has arisen between the
United States and Canada over the fish
ing in Lake Erie. Orders to proceed to
that port and to report to the collector
of customs there have been received by
Capt. David A. Hail. of the Tuscarora.
CLEVELAND. Ohio, Oct. 17.-Collector
of Customs Charles F. Leach said that
when the Tuscarora comes to this port
it will engage in determining the bound
airy line both at Ashtabula and Erie,
where American fishermen have been
fired upon and their nets taken up be-
cause of alleged encroachments upon
Canadian waters. The need for the rev.
enue cutters trip to this vicinity Is be-
cause she is better fitted out with Of
ficers and instruments to engage In such
work. and the result will probably be Of
more value to the treasury department
than if undertaken by amateurs from this
or another city along the lakes.
Collector Leach had been informed of
the revenue cutters coming and has re-
ceived instructions from the secretary Of
the treasury as to the conduct of the
work He expects the Tuscarora here
perhaps on Tuesday night or Wednesday
morning. A careful survey will be made
of the disputed points to avoid. if posi-
BILE further disturbance of American fish
ermen along this portion OF Lake Erie.

ITALY'S KING AND
QUEEN GO HOME
They First Witness a Review of
Troops in Paris and Are
Lunchified.

PARIS, Oct. 1S.-King Victor En-
manuel of Italy and his wife, Queen
Helena, heard mass early this morning
in the Italian chapel here, whittier they
drove without escort. At o'clock a
start was made for Vincennes to wit
ness the military review. The streets
were not crowded, owing to the early
hour and drizZling rain. Upon arriv-
ing at the review ground King Victor
Emmanuel mounted horse and Queen
Helena took her place in President
Loubet's carriage, while Nine. Loubet
entered the richly decorated royal
stand, where, before the march passed,
she was joined by their majesties and
turned to Paris by way of the boule-
wards amid the hearty cheering of the
people.
AT 1 o'clock their majesties drove in
full state to the Elysee palace, where
an elaborate lunch was given; the
guests being all military or naval off,
Gals and including Commander Giles
B. HARDER, the naval attache, and Capt.
T. Bentley Mott, the military attache
at the American embassy. King Victor
Emmanuel made a speech, expressing
his admiration for the French army
and recalling the days when it had
fought side by side with the soldiers
of Italy. President Loubet replied be-
flttingly.
The king and queen left for Italy
from the Invalides railroad station at
1925. They were accompanied to the
station by President and Nine. Loubet,
and along the route received demon
STATIONS from the crowd. King Victor
gave $4,000 for the poor of Paris and
$4,000 for INDECENT Italians.

fitzpatrick Secures Fast Men
for Wisconsin.

Special to The Globe.
MADISON, Wis, Oct. 13.-Coach
Fitzpatrick, the holder of the worlds
record for the half mile run, is to keep
Wisconsin prominent in the distance
running events among the Western
colleges next year This is notwith-
standing the failure of Breitkreutz to
keep up in his classes and the gradua-
ton and Professionalism of Capt.
Keachie, who is now the assistant to
Mr.. Fitzpatrick in the managers office,
at salary of 5000 a year.
Coach Fitzpatrick, while out presum-
ably looking up football material last
summer, was chasing fast track men,
the fleetest of the graduates of the
high schools and academies of the
neighboring states. He was success
full. Probably his best find" was
Dutch Liesel, of Davenport, Iowa,
whom Mr.. fitzpatrick benevolently as
simulated from the Grinnell college.
KieSel has been the winner of the mile
and half-mile runs in the last four an
nual interhighschool meets held under
Grinnell auspices. and he is predicted
as the coming star OF the West in
the distance runs.
Thirty candidates have reported for
fall training, called together by Coach
fitzpatrick. The material shows a
Willingness to work that is surprising
for the autumnal season. Only five Of
the thirty candidates are former Wis
consin trackmen, and the new material
is declared to be better than the rem
nant of veterans.
Capt. McEachron and Coach Kilpat-
rick are jubilant over their prospects,
and have set the men at work running
across the country for several miles
each afternoon, the purpose being to
develop framework which will be able
to stand the more severe and careful
training of the spring. During the win
ter a series Of indoor athletic meets
will be held, and it is planned to have
a schedule of midWinter dual meets,
including the Minnesota and Chicago
teams. Of the new men much is eX-
pected of Waller of Menomonie, and
Delaney, of Baltimore. Daniels,
Poage, McEachron, Breitkreutz and
Long are the veterans.

ROYAL STATUES UNVEILED.
Memories of Emperor and Empress Fred
erIck Are Honored In Berlin,

BERLIN, Oct. 1S.-The statues of EN-
peror and Empress Frederick opposite the
Brandenburg gate, were unveiled today in
the presence of Emperor William and his
empress. the crown prince and other i'm
perial personages and a large assemblage
OF ministers, officers and officials. Their
majesties deposited wreaths at the bases
of both statues and then drove to the
castle, where lunch was served to the
members of the imperial family and their
foreign guests.
This statue of Emperor Frederick is the
first to be erected in Berlin, and is the
work of Bruett Upon either side of it are
busts of Field Marshal Blumenthal and
Prof. Helmholz. The statue of the en-
press, which is done in white marble, is
by Herr Gerth and represents her wearing
a robe or erm1ne, crown upon her head
and adorned with sash Of the Order of
the Black Eagle, in accordance with the
late empress own wishes.
After the repast Emperor William de-
1Vered an address in which he said he
believed that he would best perpetuate
the memory of his parents activity in
the past by reading some sentences which
Councillor HinZpeter had committed to
paper in grateful love and reverence
of the dead. Having read these extracts,
which referred to the tragic fate of EN-
peror Frederick and the sufferings OF
his consort, the emperor eulogized the
life work of his parents as happy
augury for the future of the empire ana
the dynasty. His majesty then called
upon his guests to empty their glasses in
silence to the memory of the dead.
