Little ConI Needed.

Somebody expressed amazement and asked how the engines could be run for SO long n time on so little coal.
 Remember" said the commander, that of those 156 weeks we shall be under steam a very small part of the time The Roosevelt can go at a twen- ty- knot speed. but shall run her north at not more than ten, using sail when ever possible. Throughout the winter and our dash northward by sledge the engines will not be in use at all, and the only coal necessary will be for cooking and the small amount needed for heating. Thus the coal will be held in reserve for developing the full power of the engines when 1t becomes neces- sary to break ice.."

NO FEVER IN ATLANTA.
Dr. Sanders Issues Address to Quaran- tine Agents.

A rumor that Atlanta had twelve cases of yellow fever. growing out of special correspondence to The New York Tribune to that effect from the Georgia capital, was set to rest in Montgomery yesterday by telegraphic denial received from City Health Of- l hcer J. r. Kennedy of Atlanta. by the State Board of Health of Alabama. The telegram of pr. Kennedy con | tained no explanation but simply de- nied that there Is a single case of the | fever in Atlanta. It is understood that the Atlanta au- | thorities are very indignant over the report sent to New York by the cor respondent of The Tribune They will | prosecute the writer if he can be found as the city Is provided with a law like Alabama cities which attaches a pen alty to circulating false rumors. The report gained quite a wide circulation 1 in Montgomery after the receipt of a few of The Tribunes. Chief Clerk w. R. Brassell of the Alabama Board here said yesterday that he had communicated with State Health Officer w. H. Sanders in Mo- bile in the morning. This indicates that from Meridian pr. Sanders made 2 hurried trip to Mobile and from there will visit the string of Mississippi Gulf coast towns against which the State  trip each town will be investigated which lies in Mississippi and if condi- tions are deemed favorable the Quaran- tine will be lifted. or rather 1t is un- derstood. that Dr. Sanders will recom- mend to the State Board that 1t be lifted.
 Efforts are on foot every day to in- crease the efficiency of the State quar- antine and to draw the cordon tighter against the infected territory. Yester- day Clerk Brassell sent out the follow folded to the extent of hundreds:
 "rO Quarantine Omcern."
 Success in preventing Alabama from becoming infected with yellow fever depends upon the vigilance and fidelity of the men who are now guarding her.
 If when the season Is over the State remains free from the fever she will owe a debt of gratitude to these men.
 Tt is hoped, therefore, that they will spare no effort to deserve this reward
 ''The way to win 1t is to see that all quarantine rules are strictly and rig idly enforced. The danger is from in fected persons getting Into the State and developing the disease.
 "See that this does not happen and security will follow.
 "Ceaseless and untiring vigilance is the price of protection.
 "An earnest appeal is made to the men on the posts of honor and of duty for such fidelity and vigilance as will undoubtedly protect us.
 w. II. Sanders,
 State Health Officer"
 Dr. Sanders's return Is not looked for until he has visited the coast towns of Mississippi

Always Kind to the Dogs.

Indeed, we are very kind to the dogs" replied Commander Peary. We get attached to them and we realize that they are our only hope, our sole pole. We treat them even better than do the Eskimos, and they are very fond of them"
 When dog dies do you eat it7"
 Not unless 1t is absolutely neces- sary. But we allow the other dogs to eat it. On one of my trips I brought back only one of all my dogs, and he lived long afterward and at last died of old age He spent the remainder of his life burying everything in the way of a hone or piece of blubber that he came across. That Journey taught him that all these things might come in useful. a lesson he did not forget to his dying day"
 How many dogs will you take with your
 About eight to sledge, and there will be about twenty sledges. I shall get my dogs in the north of Greenland, where I also get my Eskimos."
 50 you find the Eskimos tractable and good workers?
 The best in the world-far better than white men for such work. I have the great advantage in this trip In having a whole tribe of Eskimos at my service know every man. woman. child and dog among them and I can pick the very best fellows to accom- pany me"
 T heard a story" put in General Grant, that you had been trying to convert the Eskimos to Christianity. and that after you had given them a graphic description of hell. telling them that it was place of eternal fire. the Eskimos exclaimed in chorus Of de- light that this was the place to which they wanted to go."
 T plead not guilty" laughed Peary, but l can well imagine that hell as described by an old-fashioned preacher would appeal to them as a most at tractive place."

COMMODORE PEARY
SAYS HE WILL PAINT THE NORTH
 POLE RED.
Details of His Arctic Plans-Will Make Dash from the American Side
 Supplies h Abund-

And if you find the North Pole. what will you do with itT asked General Grant of Commodore Peary on board the Roosevelt on her way down the bay,
 says The New York World.
 The bronzed face of the explorer puckered itself into a mass of wrinkles and his keen blue eyes flashed a merry smile before he replied: 'T have a barrel of red paint ready to decorate 1t.
 You might start a summer resort there," suggested The Post Dispatch
 "Too dificult to reach," said General Grant.
 "Yes," put in Peary, 'but it won't be nearly so difficult to reach after once somebody finds the way. With Arctic exploring 1t is just as with mountain climbing: a peak remains inaccessible in spite of all efforts, but at last some fellow finds the way to reach the top. and immediately everybody else reaches 1t.
 80 each successive expedition to the Arctic finds 1t easy to reach the lati- tude its predecessor has reached and to push on a little farther, so the Pole itself will be easy to visit when once the way has been blazed." How great a distance is yet to be covered?
 The farthest north was reached. by the Abruzzi expedition in 1900. It left 237 miles still to be covered. That, however was on the Franz Josef Land
 side, while I am convinced the Ameri- can side is the more feasible, because the sea is more open and ship can penetrate further north. which makes the base nearer to ones destination, a tremendous advantage when one has to carry on sledges everything needed, in- cIuding food for men and dogs" Cannot you hunt seals or bears or walrus? Cannot you shoot sea birds or catch fish?"
 Not in the extreme North. There Is absolutely no life of any sort when once the northernmost limit of land Is pass ed We do occasionally come across polar bear, but on the western side of the Arctic ocean they are much scarcer than around Nova Zembla and Franz Josef Land, and we find only enough to provide us with clothes. The Esqui-
 mos understand how to dress, and we adopt their costume. wearing knicker-
 lockers and coats with hoods to cover the head"

HeaithfuI Way Wearing Furs.

with the hair inside or notf" asked
 The Post t-Dispatch representative.
 Always outside" replied Peary. Tn the Northwest" put in General
 Grant, we learned that we are much warmer when we wore the fur inside. '" That Is quite true,' replied Peary. and it is the very reason we wear 1t
 outside When worn inside we get too
 heated and the precipitation is absorb
 ed by the fur. When the fur is outside 1t allows the slight precipitation to es- cape at the neck and wrists. and so the
 skin remains in a more healthy con- dition."
 What do you wear under the bear
 skinsT'
 "only thin underciothes to prevent the rough leather of the inside of the pelt from chafing our skins And how do you manage about shaw ing. or do you let your boards growr' "On the ships and at our base al- ways shave; when on the sfedge jour ney | carry a small pair of scissors. with which I keep my mustache and beard closely cropped. It is impossible to wear hair around the mouth and nostriis in such low temperatures as
 we have to face, for ones breath freezes In tiny particles on the hair that, after a few hours in the open air, would be- come a mass of ice that would be pain | full to carry and would prevent one from breathing. Even with a closely cropped mustache I have constantly to
 scrape the particles of ice away from my nostrils and mouth fin order to main- tain a free passage for my breath" And your food on the long sledge journey? What do you eatT "Pemmican. Men and dogs have to depend upon that almost solely" T know you are kind to your dogs" remarked one of the listeners. T am

The following resolutions were
adopted by the mass meeting
held at Bruce's hall on Wednes-
day evening, Dec. 20, 1905.
RESOLVED, That the business
men and citizens of Paonia in
mass meeting assembled, are
unanimously of the opinion that
that the increase in the cost OF
living in recent years abundently
justifes the Maintenance of way
employees of the d & r G Rail
way in asking an increase in their
wages, and we ask the manage
ment of the said railway to meet
the committee chosen by their
late employees, discuss the differ
ences and give them such in
crease as will be a fair living
wage to American laborers.
Furthur, if the parties shall be
unable to determine mutually
what constitutes a fair wage,
then we suggest that both should
submit the matters in dispute to
arbitration.
RESOLVED, That a copy of this
resolution be sent to First Vice
President Schlacks, also the Gen
eral Manager, Mr.. Ridgway, and
further that copy be furnished
the press for publication.

STEINER
WISHES A
new TRIAL

Pittsburg. May i9.--The steiner-Gibney
breach of promise case may be retired
In spite of the belief by most who heard
the testimony that the young Allegheny
man. who on last Saturday was as
sessed sl3.s25 for trining with the anec-
tions OF Miss Edith Gibney, would not ask
for new trial. Steiner. through his at
torneys. fled In the federal court today
five reasons why a new trial should be
granted.
Argument will be heard on next Sat
urday. when. II he be refused. Steiner
saws he will go on 10 the United states
court OF appeals In the papers nleo
Wednesday. Il is alleged In the hrst place
that the verdict was not In accordance
with the weight OF evidence.
Again Il is alleged that the verdict is
greatly excessive IL is also asserted that
the court erred I'm not allowing the hrst
point coutruurrf fUr by Steiners attorneys
In asking the court TO instruct the jury.
This point was that the jury be instructed
to return a verdict for the defendant,
which was disallowed by Judge Buring-
ton.
1t is also alleged that the court erred
In allowing point one OF the prosecution,
which. as presented by Attorney . Brien,
read as follows: Under the evidence In
the case defendant having admitted the
contract TO marry plaintiff, is entitled TO
recover unless It Is shown by a pre-
ponderance OF evidence that the contract
was rescinded by the act OF the plaintin
or with her consent
This was allowed by Judge Burlington.
who also refused 20 instruct the jury, as
asked by the defense In effect that the
plaintiff had not according 10 the evidence
been shown 10 have spent any money
for a wedding trousseau or spent any
money otherwise in preparat ton for her
coming marriage, hence could not re-
cover
The Steiner attorneys take exceptions
TO this on Ile part of Judge Burlington,
and IL is also alleged that the jury was
biased. hence was not able TO try the
case fairly.
