n WATERMAN IS AMBITIOUS
Leader of Purity League Prominent

Leader OF Purity League Prominent
In Cleveland Politics.
Helen ]. Waterman of Cleveland, presi-
dent of the Christian League for the
Promatlon of Purity, editor Of the Search
Light magazine and defeated candidate for
a place on the Ohio city's Board Of Edu-
cation, is in omaha attending the sessions
Of the Women's Christian Temperance
union. Monday afternoon she gave Al
address at the Omaha Commercial college
on the work of Christion league.
Mrs Waterman, though unsuccessful in
her attempt to win a seat on Cleveland's
school board made a remarkable run. She
polled 1900 votes in the city election last
spring, losing out by a small margin. She
is not discouraged, however, in her political
ambitions.
Last week Mrs. Waterman attended the
sessions of the National Purity association
at Burlington, Ia, and made several ad-
dresses. She has aroused considerable
interest in her work. Next week she will
speak before the State Suffrage association
at Des Moines, la.
The work of Mrs. Waterman is entirely
Of the self-sacrificlng sort. She derives
no p%ecuniary aid from her efforts. 1t is
all done in the spirit OF uplift-the spirit
that characterizes the work OF the league
and the Women's Christian Temperance
union. The magazine, The Search Light,
Of which she Is the editor, has enjoyed a
circulation Of two years and is widely
read. 1t is a well-edited periodical and
co GERS the ground well.

A STARTLING STATEMENT
New York Medical Authorities Claim
Dyspepsia to be Pre'disposing p
l4t Cause Of Consumption. u.

The post ,mortem statistics of the
big New, York hospitals show, tina
some cases Of consumption are due
at least Indirectly. to unchecked dys
epsia, especially when the victim was
rredisposed to tuberculosis. ~,
Dyspepsia wears out the body and
brain. The weakened. irritable stonl.
ach being unable to digest food, the
body does not receive the required
nourishment. and the victim becomes
thin, weak and hagsard. AS a result.
the body becomes a fertile field in
which the germs of disease may lodge
and flourish. ag <
Therefore, the person who permits
dyspepsia to progress unhindere.I is
guilty of contributing toward the de-
velopmert OF one of the most insidi-
us and fatal diseases known to. mans
kind. S,3. =, ,,.,. IS
DYSPEPSIA may be completely eradi-
Gated II properly treated. We sell 9
remedy that we positively guarantee
will completely relieve dyspepsia, o.;
the medicine used during the trial will
cost the user nothing. al, -.
This remedy has been manner Rexall
DYSPEPSIA Tablets. Certainly no offer
could be more fair, and OUR offer
should be proof positive that Reyall
Dyspepsia Tablets are a .dependabla
remedy. ~ ~

The Japanese were all present at the banquet. They spent the day looking through Seattle factories that make good which Japan needs, but does not produce. In all cities this will be the program.

4 FEVER|SH HUNT
 FOR P|TCHBLENDE
Has Been Started By Millionaire
 Walsh of Colorado

Denver, Colo Sept 3-Interest in the production of radium has in few days exceeded the most sanguine eX- pectations of Thomas F. Walsh. who recently contributed 5000 to the Col orado School of Mines for the pur- pose of testing free of cost all sam ples of pitchblende sent to the school, Regarding pitchblende, Mir. Walsh says: 50 far pitchblende has been found in geld and silver sulphide mines. It looks like magnetic iron: is of great specific gravity and is lustrous black like gun metal"
 Referring to the demand for spec. linens. he concludes: Letters are pouring in not only from our own. state, but from all the mining states of the west, asking for information and specimens. As it may not be possible to send specimens to all, applying poStmaSters or interested parties in Colorado will be supplied first. After that other states and territories will be supplied as far as possible"

 If the plans meet Dr. Cooks approval an international character will be giv- en the celebration by the presence of several of the most prominent ex- plorers of other countries. Among these will be Dr. Fridjof Nansen, whose memorable North Pole expedi- ton in 1895 reached the highest lati- tude until then attained; Dr. Otto G. Nordenskjold, the Swedish Antarctic explorer and geolOgist; Captain Roald Amundsen. the hero of the northwest passage. who is now fitting out polar expedition to start early next year; Dr. Stephenson, the Norwegian explorer. and possibly Lieutenant the English naval officer whose explorations in the Antarctic led him to the farthest southern point ever reached by man.

The skageD Interview Raised Public Interest in His
 COminy to a Higher Pitch
Dr. Cook Moved to Tears by the First Flower He Had Seen in Years-He Looked Forward to Change of Diet, Having Grown Weary of His Arctic
 Dinner-He Described His Emotion
 When He Stood on the Pole

Copenhagen, Sept. 3.-AIl Denmark tonight is awaiting the arrival of Dr. Cook. A royal welcome awaits the man whose announcement from Ter wick on September that he had dis covered the north pole startled the world. The Hans Egode passed Cape Skagen, the northern extremity of Denmark, at o'clock this afternoon and is expected to steam in late to- night and to dock here tomorrow morning.
 Added interest has been added to the occasion by the definite statement by Dr. Cook in an interview off Skagen today that he is able to submit data which will prove beyond doubt that he has attained the goal which for centuries has been the objective of explorers. He said he was quite pre- pared to learn that jealous persons were endeavoring to cast doubt upon his work, but that he stood ready to give over his figures for test by any scientific authority.
 Cook told the correspondent that he had seen nothing of the expedition of Commander Perry. He said there was no land at the pole-Only water, the depth of which he could not gauge.
 The Danes will not be alone in well coming Cook, for Copenhagen is filled with visitors. A committee of the Royal Geographical society has char tered the steamer Metchoir and will proceed out into the sound to meet the Hans Egede. Maurice F. Egan, the American minister. and his daugh- ter, Miss Carmele Egan. passed the night on board W. Gould Brokaw's yacht Fedora with the intention of ac- companying the steamer to port.
 At a banquet tomorrow night, at which Cook will be the guest of honor, Lord Mayor Oldenburg will propose a toast to President Taft and King Frederick. The minister of commerce, Johann F. c. Hansen, will make a speech in honor of Dr Cook, and Com mOdore Hovgaard. commander of the Danish Arctic expedition of 1882, will greet the American On behalf of the Polar explorers, and congratulate him upon his success in finding the pole.
 The Danish newspapers are full of praise of the American enterprise which made possible the trip of ex- ploration Of Cook, and express their delight at his success. These articles are replete with sympathetic references to the friendship between the United States and Denmark. None of them expresses real doubt of the truth of the discovery Of the pole and all be- lieve Cook will be able to put forward his proofs.

CHICAGO UNBELlEVERS
Charged With An Exhibition of Bad
 Taste

New Haven, Conn, Sept. 3.-The re- port that Chicago professors disbelieve that Cook discovered the pole called forth criticisms by Director Chitten- den of the Sheffield Scientific School, whose guest pr. Cook had often been and by Professor Brewer, who accom- panied Dr. Cook on one of his Arctic trips
 Professor Chittenden said: T. think the stand taken by these professors is manifestly unfair and is certainly un- called for. I think they should wait at least until his return"
 Professor Brewer said: T shall be- lieve Dr. Cook until it is proven that he did not reach the north pole"
 A Friends Tribute
 New York. Sept 3.-Rudolph Francke. the last white man who saw Cook before the final dash added a word of tribute to his friends achieve ment. Cook never made a statement he could not prove" said Francke. From the day l first met him I was impressed with his perseverance. He does not know what it means to quit. His strength of purpose is wonderful.
 When I left Cook 500 miles fror> the pole he was apouj ready to make the final dash northward. With nick ory sledges of his own design. with some of the best trained dogs in the polar regions and with a supply of carefully dried meats and provisions. he was confident of success.
 Cook thought it best I should re- turn. He was commander of the ex- petition and I obeyed without hesi- tatiOn. F'rancke,' he said to me as We parted on the morning of March 8. am going to take a desperate chance and I have decided it would be asking too much to expect you to go with me. I am willing to risk my life for this idea and I hope to win. I be- lieve I shall succeed, but if I go down l shall go alone From that day I firmly believed he would succeed"
 Attorney General Wickersham is- sued a formal statement today effect ually putting a damper on some inter- views credited to him concerning the Stars and Stripes floating over the newly acquired territory of the poIar regions. He said: "A reporter at my home last night asked for my opinion as to the raising of the American flag over the pole. I declined to consid- CT the matter seriously"
