ATTEMPTED ROBBERY.

Labor Day night, between II and J
O'Clock, Mr.. Richard Parisen's dog
carried On so in the yard OF his resi-
deace. in David street, that a member
OF the family, his sister-in-law, went
to a window and on looking out saw a
man working at one of the dining
room windows on the side of the house,
while something was being thrown at
the dog. The lady screamed and the
man threw himself down in the grass.
BY that time Mr.. Parisen was reused
up and made for the yard and the
supposed burglar. He had a revolver
with him, but the men, for there were
two OF them, a away and out of his
reach. Mr.. Parisen says he HASN'T
much money, but he has plenty of
cold lead and they can have that if
they come again. 1t appears that for
the last two weeks different ones
have been troubled by supposed burg
lars. 1t is said that they have tried
to get into John Sulllivan's house and
a Mr.. Rae's in that vicinity.

.PEARY SENDS FAREWELL NOTE.


message From Efnh, North Green-
land. Before DashinE For Pole.
NEW YORK, Sept. What is be-
lieved to be the final word from Com
mander Robert Il. Peary before his re-
north pole was received by Herbert l..
Bridgman of Brooklyn, secretary of
the Peary Arctic club. The message
came from Etah, north Greenland, and
in it Commander Peary stated that his
ship, the Roosevelt, would leave that
port on Aug. 16, the date of the mes
sage with Eskimo men and dogs to
establish a base at Cape Sabine for
the final dash into the frozen regions
about the pole. The message follows:
Cape York was reached Aug. Z,
twelve days from Sydney. The voy-
age was unusually favorable. No ice
anywhere. Natives and dogs were Sc
cured and joined the Erik at North
Star bay Aug. 0. Transferred to Erik,
and Roosevelt proceeded to Etah i'm
mediately to overhaul machinery and
prepare for ice fighting. The Erik
visited all the settlements, securing
natives, dogs and walrus, joining the
Roosevelt at Etah Aug. 10. Natives
are in prosperous condition, plenty of
meat, abundance of dogs and located
this season deeper in Melville bay and
Ingleield gulf than for years. The
Roosevelt overhauled machinery, filled
with coal and leaves Etah for the
north with twenty-three Eskimo men
and some 200 dogs Aug. 16. lee ex-
tends from Littlefield island to Cape
Isabella, but apparently is not heavy.
This may make the establishment Of a
base at Cape Sabine difficult. No ice
was seen south of Littlefield island.
All well on board"

Folks, secretary of the New York

Mr.. Folks called attention to the ex-
tent to which every one uses the prod

shares in the responsibility for the ex-
istence of such labor. He said that the
coal used for heating houses has been
freed translate by boys in the break

that nearly all the textile fabrics at
