a letter from DR.. Cook to Francke,
dated the seventeenth of March. The
two men rejoined the other four men
who had been left behind, and the six
returned to Anoratok. arriving May Z.
This Information was obtained not
from the two Eskimo boys, but from
the six men who returned and from
Francke himself, and was known to
us in the summer of 1908, when the
Roosevelt first arrived at Etah. The
information Is inserted here as supple.
mentary to the narrative of the two
boys).
After sleeping at the camp where
the last two Eskimos turned back, DR..
COOK n the two boys went in a
n~ortherly or northwesterly direction
with two sledges and twenty-odd dogs,
one or more march, when they en-,
countered rough ice and a lead of open
water. They did not enter this rough
Ice, nor cross the lead, but turned
westward or southwestward a short
distance and returned to Heiberg Land
at a point west of where they had left
the cache and where the four men had
turned back.
Here they remained four or five
sleeps, and during that time I-took-a.
shoe went back to the cache and got
his gun, which he had left there, and
a few items of supplies.
When asked why only a few sup.
plies were taken from the cache, the
boys replied that only a small amount
OF provisions had been used in the
few days since. they left the cache.
and that their sledges still had all
they could carry, SO that they could
not take more.
After being informed of the boys
narrative thus far, Commander Peary
suggested a series of questions to be
put to the boys in regard to this trip
from the land out and back to it.
These questions and were
as follows:
Did they cross many open leads or
much open water during this time?
Ans. None.
Did they make any caches out on
the ice? Ans. No.
Did they kill any bear or seal while
out on the ice north of Cape Thomas
Hubbard? Ans. No.
Did they kill or lose any of their
dogs while out on the ice? Ans. No.
With how many sledges did they
start? Ans. Two.
How many dogs did they have? Ans.
Do not remember exactly. but some
thing over twenty.
How many sledges did they have
when they got back to land? Ans.
Two.
Did they have any provisions left on
their sledges when they came back to
land? Ans. Yes; the sledges still had
about all they could carry, so they
were able to take but a few things
from the cache.
From here they went southwest

RevoIting Case of
 Cruelty to Animals

As an instance of cruelty to ani- msls, the case reported by Mexican rancher, residing about D miles southeast of Tucson, at the foot Of the Rincon mountains. is said to be the most revolting in the history of Pima county, says the Citizen. The name of tine man who committed the deed is uuknown, but officers are said now to te working on the case.
 From statements made by the rsncher 10 Tucson residents, it sp. pears that his cattle had been browsing on the pasture of s neighbor for some time past and the neighbor became sngered over the incident.
 A few days ago the neighbor is said to have roped four of the Mexican's COWS and cut off their tongues in order to keep them from grazing on tine pasture.
 The Mexican declared yesterday that he had not had the man arrested because he had no proof of his guilt beyond the mere fact of the tongueless COWS, which gave mute testimony of the cruelty practiced upon them by some heartless villain.

 Col Murphy is one of Arizona, staunchest friends, a conspicuous up builder and consistent booster, and is in turn held in highest regard and esteem by sn sdm,ring and spprecia- tive citizenship.

 Col.

With the installa tion of the supplemental pumping plant and air compressor, the latter being the largest in the west, aud the combined prmping capacity excesd ing 100000 gallons daily, it is easily 10 be seen that the T c NJ Go is preparing for developmento on a scale that is destined to eclipse anything of similar nature in the mining west Col.
