The homes of this country are filled
with women whose trials utterly de-

the victims of female disorders and they
do not get relief, and they are forced to

the hope of betterdays. All such should

sea. This theory arose from the
observation of peculiar foe. ice
in the ocean north of Grantland
by the British expedition under
Capt. Mares in 1876. Hence the
name of this part of the Arctic
ocean, which means sea of an
cient ice. 1t was thought that it
was covered with an expanse of
enormously thick ice and that
the sea was shallow, the floes
resting on the bottom, Peary
found the foe ice thick, but not
of the ancient variety supposed
by Mares. The ice as a sledge
route failed him utterly, as it
broke up into big and little is
lands under an unusually mild
winter. Peary and his party
saved their lives by converting
eight dogs into food.

Chairman Marshall voted
against the proposition for the
reason, as he stated, that he did
not believe that there had been
such an examination as contem-
plated by the act of the legisla-
ture because he did not believe
that the land was worth the
price offered, on the other hand,
stating that it was his informa-
tion that the lands hadl been of
fered for 81 per acreSin June,
1905. Mr.. Marshall also dissent
ed on the additional grsund that
in his opinion the lands were Of
fered to the state by parties who
had obtained control of same
for the purpose of selling them
to the state, and at a price in ad-
vance of their real value.

Personal Inspection.

President Roosevelt left Wash
ington Thursday on the Mayflow-
er for the mouth of the Potomac,
where he was transferred to the
battle ship Louisiana, the newest
and largest vessel of the navy,
which was waiting to convey him
to the isthmus of Panama for a
personal inspection of the canal
project. The trip is notable as
marking a new precedent, for
never before has a president of
the United States left the terri
tory of this country during his
incumbency. This President
Roosevelt will do when he goes
ashore at Colon. He will, how
ever, be in constant communica-
tion with Washington by wire

Features Of Peary's Dash.

Later messages from Comman-
der Peary to president Jessup of
the Peary arctic club, told how
he had reached Hopedale, Labra-
dor, and was having his steamer,
the Roosevelt, repaired and bal
lasted. The return voyage from
the fartherest-north point ever
reached by a human being had
been one of incessa Mt struggle
with ice flows, storms and head
winds. Two rudders, sternpost,
to blades of the propeller, four
topmasts, spanker boom and one
boat had been carried away, and
they had been obliged to use in
terror portions of the ship to
keep the fires going after the
coal supply was exhausted.
Peary also announced his pur-
pose to make another attempt to
reach the pole after getting fresh
supplies and making repairs.
His dash was impeded by several
tons of dog meat spelling, and
the loss of other supplies by
breaking of ice Mrs. Peary, who
started with her son to meet the
explorers, at Sidney or farther
north, said no words could ex-
press her elation and happiness
| over the fact that her husband
was "the hero of the most sue
cessful polar expedition in the
history of the world"

of this expedition is the explosion

State to Buy Part Of Hill Coal Land.

Acting under the power vested
by the last Legislature Of Ten-
nessee, the Board of Prison
Commissioners has voted to pur-
chase15, ,000acresofadditional coal
and timber lands for the use of
the State of Tennessee in work
ing the convicts, offered to the
state by Mr.. w. S. Morgan and
others. The lands accepted are
located in Grundy, Warren, Van
Bure and Sequachie Counties,
about % miles northeast of here.
The tract is known as portion
of the estate of the late Ii. l.. W.
Hill, of Warren County. The
price to be paid for the property
is S11 per acre, a total considera-
tion of $165, 900, and is the allot-
ment of three heirs of the late
Mr.. Hill, namely, Virgil Hill, of
Taflton, a son, and Messdames
Hughes and Deakins, of Irving
College, being three shares of a
tract containing about $4,000
acres, which was allotted to the
eight surviving children after
the demise of Ii. l.. w. Hill sew
eral years ago.
The Prison Commissioners and
! Governor have for some months
past been investigating the mat
ter of purchasing additional coal
lands for the state, and to this
end have made a number of trips
of inspection to virgin coal fields
| for the purpose of examining a
number of tracts that have been
offered to the state by various
persons. These lands have been
examined by experts, as requir.
ed under the law authorizing the
purchase.
The substance of the resolution
passed by the board at this meet
ing was in effect that the state
purchase $4,000 acres of what il
known as the H. L. w. Hill
lands offered to the board by w
! S. Morgan, and others on the fol
lowing conditions:

C0R0NER'S INQUEST
INTEREST IN INVEsTIGA ALTON AT
 ATLANTIC CtrI.
Testimony Adduced During Hearing That Rail On Thorough fare Drldge Had Been in Had Repair Bc- fore Trax.siy,

Atlantic City. N. J.. Nov. 5.--The in- quest into the wreck on the Pennsyl- vania Railroads electric railway at the Thoroughfare drawbridge last Sun day a week, in which more than fifty persons lost their lives, was resumed today by the Coroher of Atlantic Coun- ty.
 Great interest is still centered in the investigation, end large crowd was in attendance when the first witness was called.
 Joseph Dangerf1eld. who lives near the scene of tho wreck, was fishing on a nearby bridge when the wreck oc- cured. He said that Captain Kessler of the yacht Sinbad, for which the draw had been opened few minutes before the train came along, had d quarrel with Bridge Tender stewart over opening the bridge.
 Witness said he heard the Captain say:s I'll fix the third rdil." Danger field said he believed kessler meant he would have Stewart discharged for alleged slownes5 VI opening the fridge The witness sad that the ill-fated train was travelling over the bridge at a higher rate of speed than of any trains that had goue over 1t before Lloyd Brier, an assistant city elec- trician proved an eresting witness. He said ne had Uee.. employed on the new electric road duiing the pas t sum- mer and several times noticed taat the rail, which Is believed to nave caused the wreck, stuck. He did not kEow what caused the rail 10 stick, unlt Ss il: was because 1t haa not been properly laid.
 Among . the other witnesses exam ined was B. Bates, track foreman on the Pennsylvania Railroad. He said that one rail on the bridge had given trouble before the bridge was opened to the public, and that 1t had been re- placed by another. He said the bridge was so constructed that trains could safely go over it at a speed of fifty niles an hour.
 The bridge tender, he said, is sup posed to frequently walk over the structure and see whether the rails are In proper position. He believed that all the rails on the bridge were in their proper place on the day of the accident. Bates could give no theory as to what caused the accident A recess was taken until p. m.
