An Adventurous Core
spOndent.

Few newspapers in the United
States are able to command the ser
vices of as brilliant corps of correspon-
dents as the Chicago Record Herald.
Its choice OF Walter Wellman to rep
resent it at Washington is good ILL
ustration of its wise policy in getting
the best there is to be had. Mr.. Well
man has won a national reputation as
magnetic and resourceful news
writer. And now he is preparing to
clinch his reputation for originality
and daring by trying to reach the
north pole in an air ship.
Whatever may be the results Of Mr..
Wellman's daring attempt TO reach
the pole this summer in ali airship
and send theNews of the voyage at
once to the Record Herald by wireless
telegraphy, the Wellman Record Her
aid expedition is sure to be conduct
ed by Mr.. Wellman with the same
cool courage and wholesouled enthus-
iasm that have made him an ideal
newspaper correspondent.
Mr.. Wellman was born In Mentor.
Ohio, in 1858. AZ IA he began his
newspaper experience, establishing at
that aye weekly paper in the little
town Of Sutton. Neb. In 1884 he be-
came the Washington correspondent
of the Chicago Herald, for which
paper he visited the West Indies in
1892 aud located the landing place of
Columbus, marking the place with a
huge stone monument. In 1894 he
made his first dash for the pole, reach
ing the latitude of 81 degrees north
east of Spitzbergen. In 1898 he tried
the same facinating quest again, pen
etrating as far as Franz Josef Land
On both trips he had wonderful sue
cess 10 discovering new islands and
securing new scientific data which
have been of great value to the Amer
lean Geographical Society. His vol.
luminous writings for scientific period
icals and popular magazines have
shown the same incisive thought and
keen insight that have marked his
journalistic work.

DOCTORS MXSTHKES

their family physicians, suffering, as they
imagine, one from dyspepsia, another from
heart disease, another from liver or kid

and in this way they present alike TO
themselves and their eaSy-going or over
busy doctor, separate diseases, for which
he, assuming them to be such, prescribeS
his pills and potions. In reality. they are

The Star Points.

Bright Star of the East. let your beauty shin
Throughout the gloom of dark ming day
II we follow your eeamines and them define
They will lead us on to brighter way;
From your silvery rays while passing
through
We will find their many virtues lend
Charity. Hope and Faith. most true.
First comes the Daughters ray of blue.
Whose light will never fail;
You can see CLINT come shining through
From underneath the vail
The sword will cut all fear away
With its blade of finest steel,
And from each different point convey
Its beauties to reveal.
Then we have the widows sign,
With Jassamine so sweet;
Bright sheaf of golden grain must shine
To make this point complete.
Fair Esther and the lily white
Is the next point that we see;
Her crown and scepter throws the light
Transmitting constancy.
Martha the Sister represents,
The column broken down,
As one who in the midst of life
Is reaching for the crown.
The fern is emblepatic here,
And in our day of strife
Should teach us trusting hopefulness
OF sweet immortal life.
The rose so red and beautiful
Is mothers ray, and last
Portrayed by fair Electa,
Through all the ages past.
For nobility of womanhood,
In age or early youth;
Then may her cup be brimming Ger
With loyalty and truth.
So all the points are here portrayed.
And Sisters. while you're passing by
Their winding paths, be no dismayed,
You reach the summit il yop try
Remember all the lessons learned
From Adah. Ruth, and Esther. too,
From Martha, and Electa,
That the light of Star may shine on you

FORESTING
SLOPES OF HALEAKALA AND
MAUNA KEA TO BE PLANTED
WITH TREES.

In the near future Forester II. S.
Hosmer will start the retoresting OF
the slopes of Haleakala and Maund
Kea with trees of the fir, spruce ami
pine species. The appropriation for
this Work which has been obtained
from the Federal Government
amounts to $4,000, and on each of tho
mountains four areas, of five acres in
extent, will be fenced in and plant
ed with seven or eight hundred trees,
about seven varieties being used IN
each place.
The work has been held up slightly
on account of the Federal regulation
that in the use of an appropriation
of this kind not more than $500 may
be expended on any special class of
work without specific authorization.
Since the fencing will run over that
sum, this authorization must be OBJ
tanned from Washington and is ex-
pected to arrive by the next steamer.
The trees to be used will all como
from the mountains of Southern Cal
ilornia, where the conditions are as
nearly like those found here as pos
sible. 1t is thought that some Of
the fir varieties will be very success
full on the local mountains.

RESENT TAX ON
THEIR PET CATS
FRENCH OWNERS AFTER SCALP
OF FINANCE MINISTER WHO
DARES.

PARIS, October 23.-Cat lovers are
making Finance Minister Caillaux the
most unpopular man in France today
by scoring his decision to tax cats.
They admit that he must find money in
some way, but they say he must not
do it through taxing their pets. DR..
Lepinay, president of the Society for
Assisting Animals, who owns ten cats,
calls attention to the usefulness of the
felines in destroying rats and mice,
which propagate disease, and insists
that cats are not luxury, but faithful
companions of many poor people, and
far cheaper than dogs.
If put through it is expected that
the cat tax will bring in about 7,O00,-
900 francs Isl 4OO,OOO) throughout the
country.
