A NEW WHALE.
Interesting Discovery Recently Made
By Antarctic Expedition.

Rumors Of an Antarctic whale un-
known to science have reached this
country from time to time, exciting
interest tinged with skepticism among
European naturalists. These runors
have been amply confirmed by e. A.
Wilson, naturalist to the recent dis
covery expedition. On january %,
l9O2, three Of these whales, easily
recognized by the high and narrow
back fin, were seen off Ross S great
ice barrier, and four Others on Feb
ruary following. They were not
large, as whales 60, measuring only
between 20 and 30 feet in length, with
short blunt muzzles, black above and
white bdlow, the characteristic fin
standing three or four feet above the
back. Mr.. Wilson assigns this new
whale to the Mystacoceti-the baleen
or whalebone group of cetaceans-
and considers that it will prove to
constitute Il new genus.
1t is our grief that Sir William
Flower is no longer among us to share
the interest i'll this discovery. Deep
and catholic as was his affection for
all living creatures, he made the
whales his peculiar care, and sorrow
lully forcSaw their approachin" en-
tinction.
For countless centuries Che said in
lecture to the Royal Institution in
1889 impulses from within and the
force Of circumstances from without
have been gradually shaping the whal-
es into their present wonderful form
and gigantic size, but the very per-
lection Of their structure and their
magnitude combined, the rich supply
OF oil protecting their internal parts
from cold, the beautiful apparatus Of
whalcbone by which their nutrition is
provided for, have been fatal gifts,
which, under the sudden revolution
produced on the surface of the globe
by the development Of the wants and
arts Of civilized man cannot but lead
III a few years TO their partial if not
complete extinction.
While Sir William Flower held that
the evidence "was absolutely conclu-
sivc' that whales represent the adap-
tation Of terrestrial mammal to an
aquatic existence, he was equally
firmly convinced that they are not de-
scended, like seals and walruses, from
the carnivores, but that they exhibit
affinities with the ungulatcs. True
that none Of the cetaceans are vege-
tartan, but Sir William Flower be-
hcvcd that primitive ungulates were
omnivorous, as their least modified
descendants, the pigs, remain to this
day. Treacherous and misleading as
is most popular zoology, he consider
ed that it was true flash of intelli-
gence which caused sailors and fisher
folk to give to the commoner and
smaller cctaceans such names as sea
hog, sea pig and herring hog. The
French also, not certain with lending
us porc-poisson, to shorten into por-
poise, have in turn borrowed meersch-
vein from the Germans and altered
it to marsouin to denote pigfsh.

The committee appointed recently to solicit funds for premiums to ex- hibitors and to pay the cost of pro- viding free entertainments for Mena's guests atits Eleventh Annual Fair and Celebration went to work Tuesday. The response of the busi ness men and citizens was so hearty that nearly $500 was raised in a few hours and the committee has now made sure that enough will be se- cured in henextfew days to meet all requirements fora bigger fair and more entertainment features than at any previous year in Mena's his- tory.
 The time for work is short but there will be none lost and every necessary preparation can be made in good season by the various com mittees having the matter in charge.
 Gov. X. O.. Pindall is known all over the state as one of the finest speakers in this part of the country, and Hal L.. Norwood, president of the Commercial club, will unite with the committee on entertainment to secure the governors presence and a speech by him on at least one day.
