Commander Robert E, Peary has received a three years leave of absence from the Navy Dept, with the permission of the Presi- dent, in order that he may make another attempt to reach the north pole. Commander Peary hopes to start next July; to establish a permanent base of supplies at Cape Sabine, and winter quarters on the northern shore of Grant Land; and in February, 1905, to start due north with a sledge party over the polar pack. He expects to accomplish the distance to the pole and return in about 100 days, and to get his ship out of the ice late in the season and return home. He will use indi- vidual sledges, drawn by dogs and manned by Eskimos; and lis plan gives him the advantage of a fixed land base 100 miles nearer the poe than any other route.-Youths Companion.

In his "Reminiscences of the Civil
War; General John B. Gordon relates
this anecdote: At the close of the Civil
War, an old farmer near Appomattox
decided to give employment to any of
Lees veterans who might wish to work
a few days for food and small wages.
He divided the Confederate employees
into squads according to the respective
ranks held by them in the army. He
was uneducated, but entirelv loyal to
the Southern cause. A neighbor in
quired of him as to the different
squads: s'Who are those men working
there?'' Them is privates sir, of Lees
army "Well. how do they work p
very fine, sir; frst-rate workers .
'Who are those in the second group?'
"Them is lieutenants and captains, and
they work fairly well, but not as good
worker sas the private" Il see you have
a third squad; who are they?" Them
is colonels.'' well. what about the
colonies? How do they work ?" Now,
neighbor, You'll never hear me say one
word ag'in any man who fit in the
Southern army; but I aint a-gwine to
hire no generals

ANOTHER MURDER
Corpse Found Over the Pail.

A party of sportsmen while out
shooting Sunday, discovered the body
of a man in dense tl1icket, where IL
had evidently been placed for con-
cealment. There is no doubt but that
the man met with foul play, for after
a careful examination it was found
that he had received a gunshot wound
in the abdomen inflicted either by a
rifle or pistol. 1t was also found that
the mans skull had been crushed
by some heavy instrument. The sup
position is that after being shot he was
put out Of misery by a heavy blow ON
the head. AT the coroner's inquest
which was held Monday the jury re-
turned a verdict, that death was caus-
ed from wound in the head, inflicted
by heavy instrument in the hands of
some unknown erson. The body has
not been identified, consequently the
officers are making strenuous efforts to
find out who the unknown is, with the
hope that they can then locate the
murderer
There is only one clue by which the
officers can work and this they are
following diligently. Owing to the
massive chest and shoulders, large BIZ
ceps and forearm, slender waist and
general graceful physique, the suppo-
sition is that he was a pupil of the
Woods Institute, corner Fort and
Queen streets. The officers will take
the body before Prof Woods for his
Identification as he is unable to visit
the morgue on account of his increased
business.

FRAGMENTS

(By Charles Hanson in The Reader)
Q Tomb within thy shadows can it be
My dear beloved hides away from me Z?
Q Tomb! by Allah, tell me, lest die,
Is all her beauty vanished utterly?
Have her vast charms been blotted
out? her white
And pallid brow been lost in the deep
night?
Surely, o Tomb! no bit of heaven is
thine,
Who foldest close that wondrous love
of mine.
Yet in thy depths, thy darkened
depths, o Tomb.
I see the stars shine and the white
lilies bloom!
One saith that love is filled with sweet
ness. Nay,
I who am wise have never found il
so!
Love is to suffer, day on endless day,
And see fresh blood from new
wounds gush and flow.
If this great martyrdom that hangs
Ger me .
Is sweet, although I bear it all fol
her,
I wonder this and dream it:-Whai
must be,
o weary heart, the bitterness Of

GOOD WORK
FOR THE ESQUIMAU

The natives of Alaska are a fast
dwindling race. Their sun is setting.
Probably their midday sun never rose
higher than the midwinter sun rises in
this latitude.
Most of the Esquimaux in Alaska are
gathered at the missions, but the
traveller will find a few in villages of
two or three or half a dozen igloos in
places convenient for fishing, as fish is
the staple diet of these people. Starva-
tion and disease have left but rem
nant of once populous tribes.
Contact with the white race has had
a great deal to do with their deterio-
ration. They like whiskey, and like
all other native races are not naturally
industrious. Before the coming of the
white man stern necessity made them
provide for the immediate future. The
sea supplied them with most of their
food, and there were wild berries and
various kinds of game on the land to
vary their fish diet. BY instinct in
herited from long line of ancestors
they are fishermen and hunters but by
contact with the Caucasian they are
makers of curios and traders. In their
new avocations they have become de-
pendent to a great extent upon the
white people.
But the higher race is not response

Give to longevity. The impure air ir
the native winter huts,s the lack of per-
sonal cleanliness and much of the food
the native eats would shorten the days
of the hardest people.
The Esquimau has some qualities OF
The Pacific commercial advertiser., 1903-12-12

character to be admired. He has often
shared his last bit of food with starv-
ing prospectors or wrecked sailors. He
is bright and ingenious, simple minded
as a child, with a happy disposition
that takes no thought of the morrow.
He is bad only when under the inf1u-
ence of liquor.
The Government should make some
provision for the Esquimau. He can
be made self-supporting, possibly a
contributor to the wealth of the world,
by placing him in a line of work for
which nature has fitted him. Provide
him with modern appliances and means
for fishing and whaling, and with
proper management he will become a
producer of wealth.-Nome News.

AS TO COMPULSORY ARBITRATION.

two months and his views have been generally of a
gloomy portending exactly breakdown of the

court under it. A telegram gives support to his
view stating that the application of the plumbers TO the
arbitration tribunal has been Withdrawn and that the
union has passed resolution Of confidence in the
court present constituted since ii had shown itself
unable TO enforce its awards in previous sub

failure of the system for the Wellington Post points
