DR.. Cook Describes Last Days of His
Journey to Pole.
London, Sept. "a special dispatch
received here from Skagen says:
"As the steamer Hans Egede steam
ed byI caught through my glasses
vision of small man in a dark
suit and peaked cap, shading his eyes
with his hands as if straining to see
the welcome civilization after years
on icy exile. 1t was DR.. Cook, the ex-
plorer whose name is on everytongue.
He was chatting with the captain on
the bridge, now smiling, now waiv-
ing his hand. I was allowed to board
the Hans Egede.
Somebody gave DR.. Cook a banquet.
Tears dimmed his eyes as he buried
his face in their fragrance. Its years
since I have seen flowers said the
fexplorer with culver of emotion In
his voice.
"I followed him to the cabin. His
face was tanned from exposure. He
looked the picture of splendid health.
Only when he smiled one noticed the
loss of two teeth. "A fight with a po-
lar bear did that, he said. You can
tell the world, the explorer continu-
ed, that / am in better condition
than at any time, and look forward
with an appetite to the festivities
that are promised me. My dinner has
been poor these last few years, and
1 shall have to make up for it.
DIR. Cook then briefly described his
Journey. Regarding his discovery he
said:
--4 Then came April 81. That was
the great day. We looked for the sun
AS soon as we got it I made several
observations. Great joy came over

desired spot. / said to myself: 'Bul-
ly for Frederick.
" Then we went on.
:" The last stretch was the easiest
I ever made in my life, although l
had still to make two observations, and
the ice was very broken here. But
my spirits were high and 1 shouted
like a boy. The Eskimos loked at
one another, surprised at my gaiety.
They did not share it.

that was standing on the pole.
My feelings? Well, I was too tir-
ed really to feel any sensation
I planted the Stars and Stripes in the
ice field and my heart grew warm

was asked.
Well said DR.. Cook, smiling, it
amounts to the size of a 25-cent piece.
| There is nothing to see but ice, ice;
no water, only ice. There were more

which shows there is more movement

FLAG DAY PROCLAMATION.

The 132nd anniversary of the adOp-
ton of the stars and stripes as the
flag of the United States occurs Mon
day, June 18th, 1909, and desiring to
secure the widest possible observance
of the day 1 deem il proper to call
public attention thereto, and hereby
proclaim, Monday, June 18th, 1909, as
Flag Day, in the Territory of New
Mexico.
On June 14th, 1777, the United Stat
es Congress designed the American
flag. Since then it has become the
symbol of a mighty nation; it has
been carried to the farthest ends OF
the earth, and whenever unfurled it
proclaims federation, justice and fair
play.
1 recommend that Flag Day be OBJ
served by displaying the national en-
blem upon all public buildings and in.
slitutions in the Territory, as we'll as
upon private homes and places of bu.
siness; that the schools arrange fol
patriotic exercises suitable for the
day; that the press of the Territory,
which always reaches the largest au.
dience, give it's readers briefly some
historical data on the American flag
all with a view TO fostering, renewing
and increasing patriotism, which is so
essential to a worthy citizenship.
Done at the executive Office this the
5th day of June, A. D. 1909.
Witness my hand and the Great
Seal of the Territory of New Mexico

HONOR MEMORY OF THE
SOLDIERS IN GRAY.

The Memorial service last Sunday
morning, held at the Baptist church
under the auspices of Camp Va Verde
of the U. G.. ", vas largely attended
by the III veterans of both Northern
and Southern Armies, and their
friends. On the Sunday preceding a
similar service was held at the Pres
byterian church, under the auspices
of the G.. A. r. and attended by equal
federates. The services of last Sunday
would have been dispensed with on
this occasion, had it not been arrang-
ed before the first service was an
nounced. 1t is the intention hereafter
to hold the u. G. v. and G. A. R. me-
mortal services as a union meeting.
The memorial address was delivered
by Rev. H. F. Vermillion, who as the
son of a Confederate veteran, was an
appropriate choice for this Office. And
he acquitted himself we'll, speaking on
a subject so near the heart of almost
every attendant that 1t vas a task OF
the greatest difficulty to be perform
ed with satisfaction to all. But this
he did, and with such that all
went away with feelings of good In

the old soldiers Of 1S61-65.
The music was appropriate, being

congregation joined in the singing ex-

amendment restoring the Dingley

Senator Warren, OF Wyoming, spoke
or the tariff on wool. Never was the

have been more prosperous. Unless
the wooden manufacturers and the

appropriate thing to do, or whether
they should have each other by the

Senator Dolliver referred to the rag
trust and Warren said he suspected

of the wool sellers, as he had heard

 It is the story of an Irish brick mason who becomes suddenly wealthy and moves from Finnegan g Alley on the east side of New York City to beau tiful home on Fifth avenue. But after a trial of the life on Fifth avenue, Lar " and his family decide there is nothing so good as the life in the old alley and they return to their former home.
 The play is full of very amusing sit nations and the players are especially well adapted to the Irish roles. The audience was convulsed with laughter throughout the performance.
 Jimmie Lee played the role of Larry Finnegan and Marie Barbier that of Mrs. Finnegan Both portrayed the characters they represented in an ex- cellent manner and they were well sup ported. Roland Sedgwick appeared as Count de Merncy and Marab Hinehellh as Lady Hannah Lovejoy. Horace Lentz was Patrick Finnegal, Larry's son. Ethel Thornton played the part of Katy Schmoltz and Bert Russell that of Jake schmoltz, both appearing to good ad- vantage in the German characters.
