Unpleasant In
JEROME'S deed must be the
position In which
UNPLEASANT District Attorney
Jerome OF New
POSITION. York now finds
himself BY the re-
port of the April grand jury and by
the remarks of the court he stands pub
licly accused OF obstructing the usual
and regular process OF the law. The
point involved is whether contributions
made by certain life insurance com
panies 10 the campaign funds OF po-
litical parties do or do not constitute
larceny under the criminal code OF the
state OF New York. IL Is not denied
that such contributions were made, but
81 is claimed that those made for the
purpose OF defending the interests Of
the policyholders against the perils
OF the free coinage OF silver were,
though irregular. at least justinable.
Granting this II still remains fact
that other contributions were made
from sacred trust funds, at times and
under circumstances In which there
could be made no claim whatever that
the Contributions were intended TO
safeguard the interests OF the policy
hoiuere Ine WhOle system OF thus
using trust funds was obviously
capable OF such monstrous abuses that
legal remedy was imperatively de-
manded, and this demand has been met
by the Armstrong measures recently
enacted by the New York legislature
and approved by Governor Higgins
There yet remained TO be dealt with
the matter OF past conduct and IL
eeemed to be plainly one to be acted
on according to the merits OF each
particular case, and by the only human
tribunal authorized by American law

men.
IL did not suit Mr. Jerome's concep-
tion OF his duty as a public prosecutor

by the experience and the precedents OF
centuries OF English and American ad-
ministration OF law and justice. He

Mr. Holden stated to me that he ad-
vised Nash that Il was his duty to come
TO Providence and tell everything. giving
the names OF all people who had APP
preached him, and the whole story OF the
efforts that had been made TO keep him
from testifying and 10 shade his testi-
mony.
This was the same advice that I had
given Mr.. Nash on Wednesday.
IF Mr. Nash's testimony is true and
persons who can be shown to be closely
connected with the police OF the city OF
Providence have been attempting 10 pre-
vent testimony being given or have urged
men to commit perjury. no more solemn
duty could rest upon the police commits
sion than 10 allow the public TO hear and
Judge for themselves as to the condition
OF our police department.
Mr.. Holden and I decided that for the
best interests OF Justice we could not
make any more specific statement. but
that at. the right time the names of all
men that have come 20 us In connection
with this matter should be given TO the
people OF the city"

NEW ARCTIC EXPEDITION TO
 SET FORTH.
{ Danish Explorer the Leader-Ip Search of Polar Continent CT A.chipelago-Natives of
 tine Stone Age.

Is there a great polar continent or archipelago to the north of the Ameri- can continent? Indications point to such existence. Next to finding the North Pole itself the greatest Arctic discovery yet to be made is that of vast unkReHn Polar continent or archipelago, which, from soundings, driftwood, thickness of ice, currents, etc, is thought to exist in the Beau fort sea tt the north of the American continent. Here is an immense unex- plored ared which may contain land and people of great interest of which nothing is now known"
 What mystery, what adventure in the quest of such land and people. A journey to Mars, the Martians, sefm scarcely more unreal to the layman. But to the geographer, to the ex- plofer the matter takes some tangibil ity of shape; and forth in pursuit of this vision presently band of hope ful men is to set forth, the leader, Captain Mikkelsen, Danish explorer and Arctic traveller. Captain Mikkel- sen served with Andrup in Greenland and was with the Baldwin-Zieglere ex- petition. The Danish explorer starts on this new venture under the author ity of the Royal Geographical society of London, the American Geographical society, and the United States govern ment If the new land is attained, Captain Mikkelsen will raise on it's far distant shore the stars and stripes that shall proclaim to the surrounding wastes it has been taken possession of in the name of Uncle Sam.
 Captain Mikkelsen eontemplates an absence of two years The leader will have for assistants Ernest Leffingwell, geologist, and Ejmar Ditlevsen. nat uralist and artist. both with expert ence in Arctic travel. His companions are to leave Athabasca Landing. B. C.. at the end of May for the Mackenzie river. and by one of the Hudson Bay steamers descend this river to the mouth to the Polar ocean,
 The captain expects to start with the supplies and scientific instruments early in August, sailing from San Francisco in a whaler, passing through the Behring sea and straits. making occasional stops on the Siberian and Alaskan coast 10 procure a couple of Siberian ponies and carefully selected sledge dogs.
 The party plan to meet about the last of August, and attempt to reach Cape Neslon and there unload the out fit. Then d boat capable of carrying three or four tons of provisions, will be loaded and party start for Cape Prince Albert or some island off the coast: here game will .e hunted and catched for use the following spring In the meantime the dogs are to be trained to develop utmost speed and endurance. (The plan here given is as outlined by Captain Mikkelsen be- fore the Royal Geographical society,"

GET RID OF THE GAS
pr. Williams Pink Pills Strenotder the Stomach and Enable 1t to
 Do its Work

When the stomach is feeble the food lies i'll 1t undigested, decays and throws off poisonous gases that distend the walls of the stomach and cause inter. ference with other organs, especially with the action of the heart and lungs. These gases have other i'll effects. The nerves and the brain are disturbed and discomforts such as dizziness, hot flashes, slGepiessness, irritableness and despondency originate from this source.
 Experience shows that these troubles vanish just as s0on as the stomach is made strong enough to digest the food. In other words, 1t needs tonic that will rouse it to do the work of changing the food into nourishment.
 Miss Minerva C. Ladd, of Ipswich, Mass, says II had weak stomach from the time l was a little child. Whenever 1 took hearty food 1t would cause terrible faintness, and 1 would finally vomit what 1 had eaten. At times there would be the most intense pains through the upper part of my body. For days in succession, 1 would have tO lie down most of the time. The distress was often SO great that 1 could hardly bear #, and the frequent and violent belching spells were very disagreeable, too.
 My doctors medicines gave mo little relief and 1t was not until 1 tried Dr. Williams Pink Pills that 1 found a cure. Within three weeks decided improve ment was noticeable. The belching spells were less frequent, the pains through my body were not so intense, my food was retained and after taking the pills for few weeks longer l found that l was altogether free from the miseries I had so long suffered.
