is no territory there, only shifting ice
But on the 21st of April, 1905, DR.
Frederick A. Cook planted the American
flag at the north pole, and 1t the Arctic
drift has not moved it too far, 1t Is still
there. DIR. Cook discovered land farther
north than it was before known, but the
pole is, as had been supposed, in the
midst OF the sea. This feat is glory

long.sought prize is worth the costly toll
of lives and suffering that II has exacted
The recent aviation trials and auto.
mobile races have not demonstrated
that flying is safer than automobiling
but IL is at least fact that no one has
been injured in the flying, while the
deaths and injuries resulting from the

to that determination, when the furnish

Grows Eloquent on Alaska.

DIR. j. Whitcomb Brougher, whose
eloquence delighted so many of the
citizens OF this county on the 4th
OF July, has since made the South
eastern Alaska trip and last Sunday
night he commenced his sermon at
the White Temple with a reference
TO his recent visit to the north coun-
try, in which he paid the following
tribute to that great wonderland
which is larger than seven ordinary
states and which is producing more
wealth every year than it originally
cost the government. We copy an
extract from the Doctors talk, which
may be set down as true eloquence:
Alaska has been declared to be
a barren, worthless, God-forsaken
country, whose only products are
icebergs and polar bears. But in
the face of all opposition and ridi.
cule, Seward and Sumner, two grea.
American statesmen, looked to a su-
ture reward and insisted upon the
acquisition of Alaska. We paid ST.
100000 for that great country and
have taken from it already $780,
100000.
Delight TO the Eve
"All the way from Seattle to Skag-
way and out to Sitka the eye is de-
lighted and the soul is charmed by
the kaleidoscope scenes presented
on either side of the steamer as she
gently glides along the way. 1t is
possible to sit all day on the deck
OF the steamer and never grow weary
OF the changing view in the scenery
presented.
After leaving the town of Wran-
gell, about 10 p. m, we witnessed
a wonderful sunset Every land may
occasionally have a beautiful sunset.
but | doubt if there is any place
where the sun going down casts such
a delicate shade of coloring as on
this inland sea. 1t looked like a sea
Of opal set in mountains of gold. We
had been looking upon this scene of
beauty nearly two hours when the
clouds began sending forth a gentle
mist, and instantly there appeared
spanning the heavens from horizon
to horizon a perfect rainbow. In
the west the golden sun is sinking
beyond the mountains, the eastern
sky draped in the beauty of the rain
bow, and the whole earth bathed in
colors so delicate and soft that to
touch would be to destroy them"
