TAFT WRECKS CHAIR
Official Seat Collapses Beneath Presi
dents Great Weight.

Washington, March 25.-The presi.
Dental chair broke down. Under the
weight of President Taft's 300 pounds.
more or less, the big oaken swivel
chair behind his mahogany-topped
desk in the executive office gave way
and the president extricated himself
from the wreckage just in time to save
himself from a bad tumble.
He was not hurt nor gravely shock
ed. for if the truth be told, Mr. Taft
is not unaccustomed to such accidents
Chairs in general are not built in con
temptation of carrying so much weight
and he has at sundry times had sad
experience with them.
Mr.. Taft took the accident good ma
turedly and sent for a substitute chair
which was moved in from the cabinet
room. The substitute is not so big OF
comfortable as the one built especially
for the president, but it will serve the
purpose.

FLAG NEAR
SOUTH POLE
-
British Colors Raised In Miles
From There
TRIP WAS AN
AROUOUS JOURNEY
Tire Expedition Was Undertaken More
For Geographical Purposes Than to
Reach the PoIe--Motor Car Used
by intrepid Explorers.


London, March 24-The polar re
gions are gradually yielding up theil
secrets to human perseverance and
determination. Lieutenant Ernest II
Shackleton, of the British navy, who
left his permanent quarters last au
tumn for a dash TO the pole, having
succeeded, after an arduous sledge
journey of 1918 miles. which occu
pied 126 days, in reaching within III
miles Of the South Pole. or 354 miles
nearer than the point attained by the
discovery expedition" of which he
was an officer
AS the expedition to the south was
undertaken rather for the purposes Oh
geographical survey than with the
idea OF reaching the pole itself, il
may be said to have succeeded beyond
the most sanguine expectations
Profiting by former experiences il
the Antarctic regions. when all the
dogs succumbed to the strain and
rigors of the climate. Lieutenant
Shackleton made some departures
from the usual preparations for q
journey across the snow and ice. He
took with him a motor car. which could
be converted into a sledge, and sub
stituted ponies and dogs and light
wooden clothing for heavy furs.
The main expedition, of which Lieu
tenant Shackleton was in command
reached latitude 1923, longitude 162
east, while second party pushed for
ward to the southern magnetic pole
reaching latitude 72.25 longitude 15f
east The British flag was left flying
at both points
The main expedition started on a
sledge journey. which occupied 126
days, and traversed 170S miles south
wards. At the point where the expedi
ton was compelled to turn back the
land was 1000 feet in altitude, trend
ing southwark in vast field of snow
10 mountains being in sight.
A second party pushed forward to
the southern magnetic pole. The as
cent of Mount Erebus was accomplish
ed with difficulty. and geological dis
coveries Of great Importance were
made. The results attained have
thrown much light on the past history
of the Antarctic continent. The expe
dition suffered no loss of life.
