DASH FOR THE POLE.

Sergt. Julius Fredericks, one OF

made the sensational dash for the
north pole and reached the eighty
third parallel, will leave indianapolis
early in the spring for another at
tempt to reach the coveted goal. For
several years he has been attached
to the government weather bureau
service, and it was supposed that his
experience with the Greedy expedi-
ton had satisfied his longing for ad-
venture, but he has recently entered
into another arrangement, and his
plans are SO far perfected that he
speaks with confidence of his coming
venture and believes he will achieve
the glory of reaching the long sought
north pole.
He expects to make the venture in
an airship which is now being con-
structed for the express purpose,

spent much time in testing the work

THE RULER OF JAPAN
4ikado Is One Of tho PICTURESQUE
Characters of To-Day.
Mythical Legends Concerning the
Formulation of the Emplre-The
Five Great Principles OF
His Government.

Mrtsuhito, the mikado of Japan.
whose birthday the japanese recently
celebrated, has the proud distinction
of being the hundred and twenty-first
emperor Of Japan. The mythical le-
gends connected with the foundation
of the empire, B. c., 600, are quaint and
full of interest, says the Shanghai Mer-
curry. 1t is supposed that an eclipse
of the sun was taking place, when the
people deplored the loss of their sun
goddess, whom they declared had re-
tired to darksome cave. All prayers
to her to return being i'm vain the
people adopted willy course.
Presenting that the goddess was not
proof against all the failings of woman
kind they placed polished steel mir
rQr at the entrance of the cave, then
Informed the goddess that a more
beautiful being than she was had de-
scended from heaven to rule the coun-
try. Unable to restrain her curiosity,
the goddess peeked out of the cave to
see her rival, who they told her was
| standing at the entrance. There she
beheld her own beauteous form in the
mirror, and with gratitied vanity once
more shed her luster over Japan.
From her sprang the imperial line
of mikados, hence the worship called
Shintoism, which is a form of hero
worship. Many who have visited
Japan will doubtless have noticed the
marked difference between the orna-
mental Buddhist temples, swarming
with idols, and the plain thatched roof
Shinto temples, with one mirror inside
sole object of worship, combined with
dedication Of dead and living heroes.
The name Japan is said to be cor
ruption of the Chinese word Zipangn,

COLOR IN THOUGHTS.
Wonderful New Invention Reads

Apparatus Devised by Washington
Scientist Proves That Every

Color in ChrOmatic Scale.

The latest-and if all that is said
about it is true-the most wonderful
addition to scientific knowledge in
long time is the discovery of Prof.
Elmer Gates, of Washington, D. c..
that every move and every thought of
the human brain has a relatively cor
responding color in the chromatic scale
which produces in living and varying
colors the changing thoughts con-
ceived within the mind.
If practical in its operation and GER
tain in its results, the use of the APP
paratus, says the Chicago Tribune, will
undoubtedly have the greatest in
fuence upon the treatment of mental
diseases and prove of great value to
criminologists as we'll
Prof. Gates is we'll known in the
scientific world as the possessor OF the
finest private laboratory and work
shops south of New York. He has been
working on his discovery for many
years, and only perfected the appar-

which is simple in the extreme, so far
as its mocha nical attributes are con-
cerned, has been tested time and again
of late, and has invariably given sue
cessful results.
The apparatus consists OF a tall glass
jar, half filled with a colorless solution,
and to which are attached two glass
tubes which pass through an opening
in its top. One of the tubes has an
appliance which fits over the mouth
and the other runs to glass receptacle
containing purified air. When the APP

the subject was referred to, II have
completed arrangements for another
effort to reach the pole, and expect
to leave for the far north as early
in the spring as possible. Mr.. Nc.
Donnell is constructing an airship
which I believe will make the trip
comparatively easy: We can 60 to
the SEVENTEEN parallel in ships, and
after establishing provision camp
at that point, can start north in the
airship. There is no reason why the
distance between the SEVENTEEN par

of recent achievements in aerial navi-

Lieut.. Lockwood and Sergts. Fred
ericks and Brainard were detailed to-
make the famous dash for the pole.
when it was discovered that it was
impossible for the entire Greedy
party to proceed further north, ow-
ing to the exhausted state Of so many
of the men. The three reached 4
point 1894 miles from the pole. and it
was the experience in this section
| that has convinced Fredericks tho
hardest part of the undertaking was
accomplished before reaching the
eighty-third parallel, and that, had
they been in as robust condition as
when they first reached the Attic re-
gions, they could easily have reached
the pole.
1t was the revelations made on this
trip and between the eighty-first and
eighty-third parallels that have
caused Sergt. Fredericks to turn
again to the far north, for upon them
| he has built theories which he be-
1ieves can be fully verified, and which,
/ If demonstrated to be true, would be
the grandest heritage that he could
leave his children. This theory is
nothing more nor less than that the
country at the eighty-third parallel
was once inhabited by a people far
advanced in civilization. and that as
the pole is approached the climate
moderates and Immediately around it
there are all kinds of vegetation to
sustain animal life.
He also believes that the people

parallel have moved further north to
escape the increasing cold; that these
