Naturally Haggard ceased to be per

been a more powerful one, ne would
doubtless have speedily been recalled

possible TO accord any official recogni-
ton to utterances of a confidential
character which had only been obtained
for publication by means OF theft And
the consequence was that Haggard has

his United States colleagues it viii be

What's IN a patron? The history
of Arctic journeys is simply the his
tory Of luck and endurance. Pea1y
has endured enough to warrant us
calling him martyr Of science; and
he has had little good luck. The no.
bic Duke Of Abruzzi, who holds the
Arctic record, went along with no
previous experience but with full
cargo Of maeearoni and ehianti, and
he won his championship without as
much as a case Of chilblains. No
doubt his extraordinary success has
made him a pious man. Nansen had
ms share both of good luck and hard
ships.
Patronage had no effect upon these
men when they were IN the embrace
of the ice giants of the North, or
when they were circumseribed by that
dread phantom called by Jack Lon
don The Great White Silence.
The Pole Is not to be achieved with
a mahogany ship and a compass
studded with briIhants; nor with mere
collections Of Siberian dogs and
greasy Laplanders. Otherwise, the
biggest circus parade might get there
first. The Pole is for the best man

At THE SUMMIT.

He started when the days were fair
And all the slopes were glad and green
When all the world was free from care
And peace spread over every scene,
To reach q goal that Hope had set
Far. far ahead. upon q height.
and, Drawing all the foes he met.
Kept on the way with all his might
He found a thousand cares that he
Was forced to bear along the way.
But Love smiled on him joyously
And journeyed with him day by day;
New hopes succeeded those that died
And little triumphs made him glad.
And men who fell behind him sighed
To have such blessings as he had.
At last. one day. he reached the goal
So high. so distant at the start,
But JOY came not to MI mis- soul;
Nay there was sorrow in his heart:
The place was high that he had won.
And still splendid place and fair
But after all his work was done,
He turned 10 find his rival there.

til Mr. Flanagan was nominated for Con
gress. Then he came forward and made
a speech. perhaps the first one he ever
made for any other candidate than him
self and Mr.. Flanagan was defeated.
That Mr.. Flanagan is for Judge Par

Cleveland. is not opposed to him. This
is what Mr.. Flanagan has to say OF
Judge Parker:
Consideration Of present conditions
leads to the belief that no candidate
would be more satisfactory to the in
telligent voters Of this nation than
Judge Parker. He is the type of man
circumstances demand. He is a man
big enough and broad enough for the
high Office. He has had great experience
in considering vital questions; he is
learned in the law of the land. He
knows the power conferred by the Con-
stitution. He is a Democrat Of the JEFF

Deserted His Wife.

Haggard left the same night for Per

any provision for the welfare or main
tenance of his wife Some three months
later. Mrs Haggard finding her husband
declined 10 answer any Of her letters, or
10 give any sign of life, returned to this
country, where in the courts Of some
Western State she secured a divorce
from Haggard on the ground OF desertion
and non support On receiving this in
formation Haggard returned from Per
sia to England. and learning that the
American divorce obtained by his wife
in no wise liberated him from his matri
IloniaI bonds, he applied to the English
court of divorce for dissolution Of
marriage A decree of divorce was
granted to him thereupon on statutory
grounds. the English courts taking the
position that inasmUch as the American
decree of divorce was invalid IN Great
Britain. the third husband whom Mrs.
Haggard had married in this country
could only be considered as a core
spondent and not as her legal spouse
This English decree, of course,
exempted Hagard from paying any kind

tons OF Bogus Concerns.
From time 10 time complaint has
been made regarding certain bogus
companies which delude unwaly peo-
pie into believing that immense sums
of money can be made at home, IN
leisure moments, by unframed work
ers. We have all seen the advertise
meJlts Of such swindIers. One, whose
workings were recently exposed, ad-
yertsed for women TO write letters
"at home in odd moments" promising
to pay a certain rather large sum for
each thousand letters written.

typewriting machine Of primitive
construction, with which they were ex-
pected TO write circulars extolling its
merits. The nature Of the machine
made it certain even to the casual OBJ
server that 1t would take a long time
to write a thousand letters with it
considerably longer than It would
take TO write them by hand.
Other advertisements relate TO en-
broidery to be done at home, requir-
ing n deposit Of a dollar or more for
materials. The demand for money in
advance is a feature common to al.
1t is a pity that so many bogus en-

to make it reasonably certain that no
great number Of people would re-

Marconi's System to Play Great Role
in the Worlds Future Work.

The appearance IN yesterdays
London Times" Of two New York
dispatches, transmitted 'by Marconi-
graph" heraIds a revolution of world
wide consequence. The "Times," in
an editorial, assures its readers that
the feasibility Of direct wireless com
munication between America and
Europe has been commercially estab-
lished. and that it has itself already
contracted for regular and perma-
nent Marconi service. The cost of
such service between New York and
Ireland, II. announces, will hardly ex-
ceed the present cable tolls from Eng
land TO France.
If the confidence Of the Times" in
the praeticabiIity of the Marconi sys-
tenn Is not misplaced, It's wide adop-
ton as a means Of intercontinental
communication seems close at hand.
The simplicity Of the new vibratory
method and the small initial cost of
installing the devices through which
It operates give it extraordinary adj
vantages IN competition with the far
more expensive, elaborate, and cum
bersome submarine cable system.
No doubt its stability and dependa-
bility viii have to be more fully dem
onstrated. But if it can show a rea-
sonable capacity for Trustworthy ami
uninterrupted use, its future IS made
as an additional and indispensable IN
strument in the worlds great struggle
to master its environment-to subdue
time, to conquer space, to sweep away
all restraining barriers of isolation
or distance.
IndustrialIy, commercially, and po-
Htieally the world Is ripe for freer
and closer international intercourse.
Cheaper means of intereommunica-
ton will only hasten the end to which
world progress has been steadily
pointing - charging international
commerce, national friendships based
on mutual knowledge and mutual re
spect, heartier cooperation in the
struggle TO carry civilization forward,
and a more determined purpose TO
solve It's problems not through war,
but through peace.
As the world grows smaller nation
al interests grow more interdepend-
ent and national antagonists lose
their meaning. Not alone as an agent

ton, and OF commerce Is the Marconi
