STEAMER ROOSEVELT

St Johns N. F., Nov. 3.-The fact
that Commander Robt. E. Peary'S
steamer Roosevelt was damaged by
ice during it's long stay in the arctic
regions while the explorer made his
last dash for the pole, was reported
today from the Moravian mission
station at Hopedale on the Labrador
coast, where the Roosevelt has ar

New York, Nov. 3.-Although Com
mander Robt. E. Peary, who was
heard from last night after his long
sojourn in the frozen north, failed
to reach the North Pole, Secretary
H. L. Bridgman, of the Peary Arctic
Club. believes that mis- feat in reach
ing within 203 miles of the pole, or
about so miles nearer than ever be-
fore reached, ought to be a subject
of national rejoicing. According to
Peary's dispatch he failed to reach
the pole because of drifting ice. This
was his fifth attempt to reach the
pole.
New York, Nov. 3.-Mrs Robert
Peary, wife of the explorer, received
the following message from ner hus

THE COST OF LIVING.
Even Egypt, the Land of cheapness,
Shows the General Upward Trend,


New York Tribune.--The United
States is not the only country in
which vast increase in the cost OF
living has been noted within the
last few years. Reports from all over
the world contain similar announce
ments of great additions to the expen-
ses of the common classes. The latest
to- be noted comes from Egypt, the
land in which cheapness of living has
hitherto been considered a certainty.
Tourists returning from the land of the
pyramids all tell the same story Of
the continual advances in the prices
of foods. Vincent Corbett, financial
adviser of the Egyptian government,
has recently issued report on this
subject which is of striking interest
to the students of political economy
the world over.
In 1t he shows the upward trend OF
prices for labor, for farms, and for the
products of farms in Egypt The scar
city and higher cost of unskilled labor.
he says, is becoming a factor of the
gravest import in connection with
the expenditure on all public works.
The irrigation authorities state
that the cost of constructing earth
works has risen in the last three
years by at least sixty per cent, and,
consequently, the estimate for the con-
version, in 1906, on the basin lands of
Upper Egypt will probably be increas-
ed by some 100000.
The price of some descriptions OF
urban lands has reached almost fabu-
lous proportions, and that of purely
agricultural land has risen at least
forty per cent. 1t is now selling in
many sections at $500 an acre and
at even a higher figure. Chickens
which sold in 1901 for eleven cents,
now command fifty cents, a rise of
more than 300 per cent; and eggs,
which cost six cents a dozen in 1901,
now sell for eleven cents. Mutton has
risen from ten to twenty cents a
pound, and beef from eight to fifteen
cents, while lentils have advanced
eighty-fve per cent, and wheat thirty
per cent in value.
These are normal prices for the ma.
tive consumer, but tourists and for
eigners are obliged to pay much more
Eggs are sold to them for twenty
cents, instead of eleven cents per
dozen, and a proportionate advance IS
made in all other commodities. 1t is
the same old story: with the advance
of the wages of the workingman,
comes an advance in the price of his
living. 1t is the history of the world
of labor which constantly repeats it.

TO THE EARTH AGAIN.
American Scientists VIII Use the
Great Pyramid in the Job.

Twentieth century science is dis
satisfied with the accepted figures of
the earth's weight, and Americans
are planning to weight II again.
The last time it was done was more
than half century ago, when, under
Airy's direction, pendulums were
swung at the top and the bottom CT
an English coal pit.
The comparison of their times of
swing showed how heavy the whole
earth was compared with the outer.
most thin shell. shell of the thick
ness of the depth of the coal pit.
Since biologists were able to give
fair estimate of the weight of this
surface shell the weight of the entire
earth became a mere matter of multi
plication.
The same experiment Is 70 be re-
peated by scientific expedition from
the Survey Department at Washing
ton. Pendulums are to be swung at
the apex of the great pyramid OF
Egypt and in the chambers at its CEN
ter and base.
From the swing Of these pendulums
the comparative weights of the earth
and of the pyramid can be learned;
and, the weight of the pyramid having
been estimated, the weight of the
earth will again be mere matter of
multiplication.-World Today.

England Consumes Bushels of tn

Consul Stephens writes from Ply

an average a little over 10000 BUSH
els of apples per week. They come
from the United States and Canada.
Those from Oregon bring the highest
prices. The best qualities bring 1855

box contains only bushel. Tie Cali
ifornia apples are selling at s2.45 a
box for best and s1.95 for ordinary

The United States fruit is put in
barrels of about 140 pounds. The best
range in value from $3.50 to s6.7S a
barrel, ordinary from s4.35 to 1886.
Nova Scotian apples sell from s6.0s to
s6.7S barrel. Ordinary Canadian ap-
pies from various sources bring from

the wagners are the cheapest and the

Post voices the sentiment well:
Life has been one horrid grind in

this session. A thick, dun mist has
hung over that stagnate morass of
mediocrity, with never a flash to
tighten the gloom. There have been
words, but no sparkle. If rule has
been adopted shuhing off original
thought and unique speech, the
cloture would not have been more eff
fective. pail, a shroud, a wet
blanket seems to have settled over
that once teeming hive of wit. Where

echoed in the Philippines? Where is
Grosvenor, of the glittering blade?
Where is ]. Adam Bede, of Anacos-
tia and Minnesota? Feeble, feeble,
have been their pipes; faint, few, and
far away. They may be in the house,
but it seems otherwise. The voice
divine, the purple speech, the tempest
of eloquence are heard no more.
There is menace in this. 1t is not
well for the sons of thunder to eat
the poppy of oblivion. The people
demand recompense for the Iaurels
and roses which they fling to pam
pered favorites. Let them look to
it. Already the Ohio Athenian has
heard the doomsday bell Tammany

for her Anacreon, and may get him
before he is aware. AS for the Ia
coma statesman, a new star is rising
that may pale his Intellectual fires.
One George l.. Dykeman, hitherto un-
known to fame, thus snatches the bay
from Cushman's nodding brow:
"'R. L. Mccormick is the next
mayor of Tacoma. Everything points
in that direction. You can go to yon-
der eternal mountain, whose brow has
been kissed by the birth of every

where sounds forever the ceaseless
thunder of the mighty deep; go to
your forests where the frs tall and

fathom but yourself-then listen
Back from it all will be borne this
message: Mccormick is mayor by

keep him out of congress, and even

burst from the Honorable Cushman
that shivers the somnolence of the
house, between now and adjournment,
he may as well give up. 1t will be

which has lost ten persons on account
of tigers, while in the same region

Why cannot some of the Nimrods of

Innocent women and laughing children

in discriminating or catching these
