WALTER WELLMAN.
Journniist-EXpiOrer Again 10 Visit
the Polar Regions.

n new interest in Arctic exploration
has been aroused by the announcement
or Walter Wellman that he and Santos
Dumont, the aerial navigator, will start
IN the near future upon an expedition
which they hope will carry them to the
North pole. They will go in an airship
and will describe their journeys as they
proceed nerthward by aid of the wireless
telegraphy and submarine ca les. II is
the most spectacular undertaking in the
history of Arctic exploration.
Walter Wellman is an able journalist,
Washington correspondent of leading
dailies, and a reliable writer. He is also
an explorer, having twice visited the
polar regions. On his first expedition in
1894 he reached the S1st degree His
ship was crushed in the ice and he suf-
fered many hardships. On his second

Welman and his men eventually moved
north and explored hitherto unknown
regions, but their cherished hope of GO
ing further north than other. explorers
was spoiled by an injury to Wellman's
leg and by the destruction of some of
the camp equipment.
Ever since the second expedition Mr..
Wellman has been a close STUDENT of
Arctic work and conditions. Probably
he has never been able to get the polar
fever entirely out of his system. In adj
dition to his newspaper and magazine
work he has written much on geograph.
zeal and exploration topics. He has lee

TEN uiE IN FIRE.

called forth cheers from the crowds.

The fire was discovered at 7:15
O'Clock and the guests and employees
were given prompt alarms by the ho-

capes cut off by roaring flames, famed
by cold and strong wind. and halls
filled by impenetrable smoke caused
three people to jump from windows to
their deaths. The firemen had the
flames under control within an hour

The West Hotel has for many years
been regarded as the leading hOstelry
Of Minneapolis. 1t was built nearly
twenty years ago by the late Colonel
John T. West and was made as nearly
hreproOf as possible. Located at 9Th
street and Hennepin avenue, it occu-
pied n commanding position in the city
an1 was regarded as show place and
one Of the leading attractions of the
city. The facilities afforded by the
hotel brought scores of conventions and
other gatherings to the city and rarely
were its accommodations OvertaXed.
The Republican national convention
OF 1892 was secured to MINNEAPOLIS
chiefly because of the West Hotel. The
vast lobby. declared to be the largest
in the United States, was easily able
to accommodate the crowds which filled
the place. Many other notable gather
ingS were held within its walls and in
the afternoon and evening it was the
center for business and professional
men to gather. With the death Of Col.
west the property passed into other
hands.

The Stable Floor.

Horses, when confined, need good
floors on which to stand, and in order
to secure good pitch in them suffi-
cient for all liquids to drain rearward,
a good way is to have the planks 6
inches wide, inches thick at one end
and 2 inches thick at the other. These
should be laid two layers thick. With
the thick end under the manger, the
first or lower layer should be put down
as closely as the planks can be driven,
so as to make them water-tight is pos
sible. Assuming the foundation is lev
ell, this will give fall of about inch
es to carry water away. The top layer
should then be put on with the thick
ends Of the planks at the end Of the
stall, thus bringing the floor up to a
perfect level, the only natural position
for a horse stand. The top planks
for three feet I'm the center of the stall
should be Y of an inch apart. Owing
to the slant of the layer underneath,
the urine then has chance to run
away, and, as consequence, the stall
is always dry. Especially is this SO
If, when in cleaning out the stable, a
small square hook is used to run down
the grooves in the upper layer, insur-
ing clear passage for the liquids at
all times.-Agricutural Epitomist.

New York harbor Sunday. The Ken
lucky was so badly damaged that il
was unable to proceed with the fleet.
The Maine, Admiral Evans flagship,
was the only vessel to carry pilot
and was leading the squadron, the
Illinois following in close formation in
the order named. An ebb tide and a
west wind combined to urge the YES
sells toward the east side of the chan
mel and the Kentucky went aground.
There was not room for the Kearsarge
to sheer off into the main channel
without a collision, so her commander
drove her aground. The Alabama at
tempted to make the channel and
struck the Kentucky glancing blow
on the starboard quarter, carrying
away the rail and all belonging to it..
The upper steel plates of the Ken
lucky were bent for a distance of
about ten feet. Both the Kentucky
and Kearsarge freed themselves and
the Kearsarge joined the fleet outside
the bar.
RearAdmiral Charles III. Davis. in
command of the second division of the
squadron, with the Alabama as flag
ship, explained the accident in detail.
but would not comment on IL other
than to say that the high wind, the
action of the tide and the narrowness
OF the channel We're directly respon-
sible. He would not say that the
Kentucky was seriously disabled. He
was OF the opinion that his own yes
sci, the Alabama, was not.

WAGES SMALL FOR BIG FAMILIES
Child-Labor Secretary Discusses
Presidents Theory.


President Roosevelt's declaration in
favor of big families was discussed be-
fore the New Rochelle Peoples forum
in New York Sunday. The Rev Owen
L. Lovejoy, secretary of the National
Child Labor committee. declared that ex-
cept in special cases the President was
mistaken in nrcmulgating such ideas
among the American people. Many men,
he said, were working to-day at the
bench and in the factory for less wages
than their fathers received for the same
amount of work and it was costing them
more to live.
Such men, he said, if they Were Of con-
scientious type, woulA hesitate at the re-
sponsibility of bringing children into the
world to struggle and toll for bare liv.
ing without prospects of advancement.
Mr.. Lovejoy estimated the number of
children employed at manufacture and
mining in the United States at 1000, 900,
which, he said, is far too many, as they
are crowding men and women out of
work AMI lowering wages.
He said that the National Child Tabor
committee, in conjunction with the Ma.
tional Consumers League, would go to
Washington this winter to try to have
Congress pass bin to establish an adj
ditional child-labor bureau, which would
raise the condition of working children to
that OF France and Germany.

IN PALACE OF DIOCLETIAN.
Much Of Abode of Famous Roman
Emperor Is Still Standing
at Spalato, Italy.

Almost half of Spalato's 10000 souls
live within the walls of Diocletian's
palace The latter is rectangle,
built upon the plan of the fortified
Roman camp, inclosing within it's
cyclopean walls, 80 feet in height, an
entire quarter of the modern city.
At each angle of the walls stands a
massive tower. In the center of each
facade a gate opens. except in that
turned toward the sea, where mar
row postern admitted the royal barge.
One cross street divides the Enclosure
into northern and southern half,
connecting the Silver Gate with the
Iron Gate; another leads from the
northern or Golden Gate to the en-
trance of the imperial apartments.
1t was through the Golden Gate
the Porta Aurea, still in excellent pre-
servation--that Diocletian entered his
palace when coming from Salone.
Under its soaring arches the cruel
emperor, once a simple soldier of the
legion, now covered with the royal
purple-a man of the people now APP
