Athabasca Landing, Canada, Sept Z
News of the probable loss of ths
schooner Duchess of Bedford. the ship
belonging to the Anglo American Arc
tic expedition. which hoped to find a
new continent north of the Mackenzie
river, was brought here by Alfred
Harrison, who has been in the Arctic
circle for two years and who carne
here on the steamer Midnight Sun.
Mr. Harrison and Ernest Stefansson
Of Harvard university, after whom the
expedition has been called, himself
brought the news OF the loss of their
boat to Herschell island. He also
brought the news Of the disappearance
of three members of the party, and
expressed the fear that they had met
death In the frozen north.
The missing are:
Captain Miklselson, Dane.
Ernest Leffingwell, of Chicago.
j. M. Marks.
They left the ship in February with
sixty days provisions for the sup
posed land to the north, and had been
gone seventy days and no news had
been received from them. One of their
teams OF dogs had returned, and it
is likely. that the party will never be
heard from again.
The schooner Duchess of Bedford.
Stefansson thought, probably had
sunk. The ship had filed with wa
ter from the ice strain, but they had
been able to remove everything OF
value to the main shore.
Ernest Stefansson was. instructor In
ethnology in the Peabody museum at
Harvard university before leaving for
the north last fall. Professor Stef-
ansson is a Canadian. but has spent
most Of his life in the United States
and studies traces of ancient Indian
life in the Dakotas. He has' twice
made trips to Iceland in pursuit of his
science there.
Just before leaving Athabasca
Landing Professor StefanssoR, after
cutting loose to journey north with
the Eskimos, discarded everything ex-
cept his camera. rifle and note book.
It was his plan to reach Herschel, is
land, 250 miles north of the Arctic
circle, and there await the arrival of
the rest of the exploring party.

The Bachelors Wall.
These nights are mighty hard on me

TheSe nights are mighty narQ on me,
have to entertain till day
A lot Of married men who're free,
Because their wives have gone away.
And married men who're left alone
Are worse than single men. by far;
At least the ones that have known,
Have proved conclusively they are.
A single man win homeward go
At a. m. or even 2,
But when mans wife cannot know,
A decent hour will never do.
He will not let you catch your car,
He thinks WITH him you ought to stay,
The worst Of night hawks really are
The men whose wives have gone
away.
All autumn and all winter through,
He stays at home at night to read;
But when he's bid his wife adieu
And for the summer he Is freed
He turns unto his single friends,
And keeps them out until break of
day;
With him the evening never ends,
At least while wiley Is away.
The summer may be full of cheer,
For many; but all single men
Will gladly see 1t disappear,
When they can settle down again,
This single blessedness, swear,
Has many joys In glad array;
But Oh; bid you to beware
Of married men with wives away.

The court martial finding was not
pleasing to Major General Grant. He
held it to be inadequate and stated
that the sentence should have been
sufficiently severe to guarantee that
an officer would not be again guilty
of such conduct, and Gen. Grant Is
right. Lieutenant Trumbo would dc
better as hostler Of the troop than as
lieutenant.
