DR.. Cooks New Theory.

DR.. Cook intended to put new the
DRY into practice in the polar regions
on this trip He intended to time his
advance in such way that his trip
across the ice would fall during the
winter months. This seems strange
time in which to reach the pole; but,
radical as laymen may consider 1t, pi-
lots and explorers who have spent win
tiers in the north believed that it might
lead to success. Usually explorers have
done their travelling during the sum-
mer and on the approach of winter
have gone into winter quarters. This
gave them chance to recuperate dur
ing the cold weather for the hard work
ahead when the moving ice had opened
water to give them chance to use
boats. Or Cook entirely ignored the
old customs, He started on journey
the exact antithesis of any heretofore
undertaken.

Train Just Misses Fire Engine.

There were several exciting accidents
incidental to a false alarm of fire
turned in early this morning from box

haps. The first occurred at Main and
Cone streets. A trolley car was stalled
in the latter street. just off Main street,
and when the fire wagon attempted to
turn into Cone street there was not
enough room to passe The driver was
forced TO send his horses up on the
sidewalk. The horses stumbled and fell
and the rig was partly smashed. 1t
took the firemen about twelve minutes
to make repairs with ropes, and after
they had started off the rig broke down
again. When repairs We're made the
second time it was learned that a false
alarm and caused all the trouble.
The iire truck, with Henry Hansperg
driving, took a course through Centre
street. When the Lackawanna railroad
crossing was reached the gates were up
and the truck went across. The rig
had just gotten over when an express
train whizzed by within arms reach of
the rig. The firemen congratulated
themselves on their narrow escape.
