MIR. DOOLEY, HOTELS AND
 HOMES.

MT. Dceley's picturesque descrip- tion of hotel life, in our last issue, treated a theme of serious and in- creasing moment in Amer.can exis- tence. In "The House of Mirth" Mrs. Wharton includes a biting picture of a large hotel and the homeless class who form it's population. MT. Dcoley rollicked among the thoughts that a great hostelry brought to his riotous which he was filled by the follies of social distinction, there lay visible always genuine feeling for homes, as entrusted with caravansaries Wh ch, in the now classic jest, are k ut to furnish exclusiveness to the masses. The simple "Home, Sweet Home" and God Bless Our Home" legends on the walls of honest citizens have done much to induce in more sophisticated brains wittic sms against domestic life. Now. among the thoughtful, less stress is laid upon satirical possib lities than upon the very real dangers which may turk in loosenng the family unit. Whatever makes the individual citizens stable in their sympathies is strengthening to the people. Whatever substitutes hectic amusement for stable responsi- bility has in it possibility of sap- ping energy. We believe, however, that while the hotel tendency n- creascs ii. some of the most congested spots, the hotel and boarding house habits over the whole country are relatively on the decrease, and among the class especially referred to by Mir. Dooley and Mrs. Wharton the stablishment of country homes is do-
 ing much to create a health CT tone- COlliers

Smallpox Sheridan,

That ''misfortunes never come sing lT," is aptly illustrated in the case of Will Bradley, aged 1G, of this city
 Two weeks ago the young man was bitten by alleged mad dog, and last week, while still confined to his hame from the effects of the dog S bite, he broke out with a genuine Case of smallpox. Young Bradley, in company with F. K. Marks, visited Butterfield in search of "mad-stone" shortly after being bitten by the dog, and it is supposed he was exposed to the disease while on this trip. Every precaution has been taken to prevent a spread of the disease, and no danger of an epidemic is feared. Several cases of smallpox have developed in this country in the last year, but each and every case has proven of so mild a character that it has ceased to be looked upon as very dangerous. Meas les has proven to be a worse malady than any case of smallpox this coun- ty has experienced for some time.

JAMES J. HILL, THE GREATEST
 OF LIVING BUILDERS.

James J. Hill is one of the greatest ot living builders. Stretching a rail read across the continent was only enc end of the task he blocked out for himself. His railroad was worth less without a population. Therefore he became the leader of a migration which has been carried on so quietly that t is impressive only when the statistics are bulked in this fashion. These hundred thousand men, women ard children led up toward the north ern frontier were not sought in the steerages of Atlantic steamers. This vas not foreign movement such as in a previous generation had settled large areas of Minnesota and Wiscon. sin. The missionaries who preached the gospel of "Jim Hill went into the Virginias.

SOME OF THE TRIALS cF AM
 ARTic EXPLORER.

Anthony Fiala, the Arctic explorer, whose party had been given up for lost when message came from Nor way last summer saying that he had been reached by the relief ship, Ger "a Nova is living quietly in Brook lyn, content to accept the inclemency of New York winter, which he ad, mits is much more trying, with it's heat and rain, than the good, honest cold of the region around the Pole, where it doesn't rain after it has made up it's mind to snow. The eX- plorer, however. does appreciate the luxuries of civilization. A year ago, he was in sight of starvation his ship wrecked, cut off from all com municat:on with the world, but still fighting across the ice through the darkness. to reach the North Pole.

COTTON REPORTS.

The concensus of opinion expressed by those who appeared before the house committee on agriculture was to the effect that the crop reporting system of the department of agricul- trre ought to be retained and ln- rroved Southern congressman and those representing the Southern Cot ton association agreed with the spin hing interests that these reports were valuable, but were susceptible of lm- proyement and could be made ot g1eater value to both the agricultural and manufactur interets.
 There can not be any doubt that it is a good thing for both the buyer and seller of cotton to know what sort of a crop is being made; whether there is to be limited or unlimited supply of the staple. so that buying and selling may be intelli9ently con- ducted: it is good for the grow e1 to know in advance the prob able volume of production, that he may deduce therefrom some estimate of the value of his product and con- duct his business accordingly. 1t IS good for him to know how many acres have been planted at the beginning Of the season and it's condition on the first of every month. The only thing that has not been good about these reports is the dishonesty of some of those intrusted with the compiling of them in Washington, and this Secre- tary Wilson has done his utmost to remove.
 The system of compilation of re- ports adopted. since the Holmes eX- posures. makes it practically impossi- hle for any offic al or employe to know what the aggregate may be- No one is permitted to enter or leave the room while the final collating of the figures is in progress. The speculator who buys advance informat on from clerks under such conditions as these is not very wise and we do not think that hereafter there will be any very active market for department "leaks." The reports are susceptible of i'm provement and we feel sure that every resource and energy of the ag- ricultural department will be em- y1C hn O important branch of the service.
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1906-02-27

It is of these last efforts, and of the fight to find sufficient food to main tain life on the chance of the relief ships finding him that Fiala tells n the conclusion of his chronicle Of ~Two Years in the Artic'' in the March McClure's.
 At the beginning of the second year within the Artic circle, after the re- lief ship had failed to reach the little colony alone in the great white waste, dissatisfaction arose, and the party scattered; many remaining in idle ness at Cape Flora to which they had gone in the expectation of meeting the relief ship and sailing home with it: others were constantly in the field with dogs and sleges, transport ing provisions from cache to cache in order that all might not starve to death: and Fiala was at Camp Abruz- zi preparing in the face of all these discouragements to make another de- termined effort to reach the Pole. The condition of affairs could scarce ly be matched in any other corner Of the globe; it furnishes bit of study fer sGciologists; primeval instincts came to the surface and many things happened of which Fiala merely hints in his narrative Then this hard winter. he set out with two support ing parties and the sledges to push north over the rough ice for the Pole Perhaps the most dramatic scene of the entire story is that of the sixth cay of the advance, when MT. Peters, in command of the lasf supporting party, in a tent on the ice urged Fiala to turn back. Fiala was all for going Ln; but Peters pointed out to him not only the snail-lille progress made so far, but that to run the risk of los iEg these sledges, might mean the death of the men left at Abruzzi and Jackson. Fiala welded, and led the way back, knowing that he had failed.
