Uses of Maaks.

Among the North American Indians
the origin of the use of masks lay"
says a writer, ''in the desire to con-
ceal the emotions. Thus should two
warriors meet in combat, the mask
conceals any expression, whether of
sympathy, fear or other emotion. For
instance, the knowledge that fear was
depicted on ones face and that his an
tagorist knew it would very possibly
insure the defeat of the one whose
feelings were betrayed to the other"

COMMANDER R. E. PEARY HAS
FAILED AGAIN.
Peary Went Further North Than Any

tempt to Reach North Pole.

Although Commander Robert E
Peary, who has been heard from after
his long sojourn in the frozen north
failed to reach the north pole, Score
tary Herbert L. Bridgeman of the
Peary Arctic club believes that his
feat in reaching further to the north
ought to be a subject for national re.
Joicing.
Mr.. Bridgeman states Mr.. Peary
failed to reach the pole because OF
drifting ice, but now has the distinc.
ton of having gone further north, hav-
ing reached 81 degrees, minutes, a
point 80 minutes nearer to the north
pole than reached by the duke of
Abruzzi expedition in 1900.
In discussing Peary's dash after he
had had time to study the command
ers message more closely, Mr.. Bridge
man said:
81 am sure it has been the ambition
of every true American to see the
stars and stripes first at the Arctic
pole. And that it should be an Ameri-
can to reach the furthest north is
DuS 1AILAO 1893 81 dJlly
ut is evident Peary has had the
same experience of getting on drifting
ice and being carried away from his
goal that other explorers have had.
Probably no other man living would
have got off so we'll as Peary has. He
found himself on ice that had been
broken up by a storm and was taking
him in a contrary direction. It is
likely that he and his party went to
the limit of human endurance before
they gave up, as instance the eating
of the dogs"
''Will Peary ever make the attempt
AGAIN."
Il do not know. Although it was
said by the newspapers when he
sailed that if he failed this time he
would never try again he never told
me that, and was quite close to him.
/ consider that one wonderful thing
of this expedition is the fact that the
Roosevelt is coming home with the
entire party, despite the hardships
they have experienced.
''Peary probably reached within 2O3
miles of the north pole. He passed
the Abruzzi party by about 80 miles"
This was Peary's fifth attempt to
reach the pole. Other sledge journeys
were made in the years 1892, 1895.
