PROF. DYCHE AT HUTCHINSON
Noted Kansan Delivered Lecture Oh
North Pole Experiences.

Hutchinson, Kan, Oct. 29.-Prof.
l.. L. Dyehe, the great naturalist, of
the University of Kansas, lectured at
the Home theater on the subject of
Cook, Peary and the North Pole"
His address was accompanied by
some splendid stereopticon pictures
of the polar regions, taken by him
self while on different explorations Of
that territory.
While Prof. Dyche acknowledges
Peary as the greatest Arctic explor-
er that ever lived, so far as penetra-
ting and describing the life Of the
frozen north is concerned, he is a
strong partisan of DR.. Cook in the
polar controversy. He is firm in his
belief that DR.. Cook accomplished ex-
actly what he says he did and gives
strong reasons for his belief.
The proceeds of the series of Dyche
lectures are to be used to pay the ex-
penses of the trip he will make with
DR.. Cook up Mount Mckinley, in
Alaska, to determine whether the ex-
plorer ever reached the top of the
continent" as he claims. Prof. Dyche
wishes to be absolutely Independent
of DR.. Cook, so far as finances are
concerned, SO that there can be no
possible suspicion concerning the re-
port he will make after that explora-
ton ia made

Roosevelt in No Danger.

We are surprised to see the tele-
grams carry a warning from Profess
sor Frederick Starr of the university
of Chicago, that President Roosevelt
will be in danger from the Congo fe-
yer on his hunting trip to Africa. This
fever, as Professor Starr says, is a
real and imminent peril in the region
where it prevails And so Is the jun
gle fever of the west African swamps
So is the so-called sleeping sick
ness"
But little reflection will ease any
apprehension on this score. For, in
order to be liable to these dangerous
fevers, one must go where they pre-
part of Africa where there Is the least
likelihood of his catching these sick
nesses. He Is going to the uplands of
eastern Africa, where the health con-
dltions are as good as they average
in the United States; where the fevers
referred to are not prevalent.
1t would be just as pertinent for
some European professor to give a
warning in behalf of distinguished
Frenchman, or German. who might in
tend to come to Salt Lake for in
stance, that by coming here he would
be in peril of catching the Chagres fe-
yer, or the Belize malaria, or any
other of the deadly terrors of the Gulf
coast of Mexico. Professor Starr
must know all this; and the proba-
bility is that something he has said
has been misunderstood.-Sal Lake

cumbrance, and with the capital,
business ability and energy of the
men interested, it ought TO be very
