whale boat model which he presented to Peary as part of the expcdition's equipment.
 Whitney IS perfect specimen of the clubman-sportsman. His father, the late stephen Whitney. was another such. and was known in New York and New Haven clubs as "a thorough bred"
 Harry Whitney is the elder of the two sons of stephen Whitney. and has two sisters older than himself. His younger half-brother is stephen Whit ney. Harry's mother and Stephen's mother were sisters and the daughters of the late Bradish Johnson of New York city and Long Island Mir. John son was clubman and country gen tleman of prominence and wealth. and much of his property was left to Harry and to Harry's step-brother. Both Harry's father and mother are dead.
 Harry Whitney did not care to 20 to college, but on leaving the high school decided to learn the copper manufac- turing business. He spent three years in factories in Ansonia. Conn. and then decided that he did not like the steady confinement of the work. Con ceiving the idea of managing an Aus tralian sheep ranch he made careful preparations for the venture and sailed from New York city for Aus tralia, where he purchased a ranch. This business was well started when a severe drought killed the sheen and Whitney abandoned the plan and came home.
 His love for ranching and open-air life remained, however, and he pur. chased an Arizona ranch, where he has remained couple of months each year. lie had narrow escape from death in peculiar manner while on his Arizona ranch a few years ago. He was riding on mustang when an insect flew into his ear. He used every means to dislodge the creature. whose presense created excruciatipe pain. Trcson, the nearest place where surgeon might be found was 100 miles away, but he headed for it and rode at top speed, When he reached Tucson he was raving mad and was stopped for an insane man. His fate would have been uncertain but for an Elks' nin that he wore. Prominent of. | f1cers of that order interested tbem, | selves in his case and he was taken to St. Mary's hospital in that city. where the physicians found out his trouble and relieved him of the insect In his physique Harry Whitney is
 slight. He is unusually tall, although
 little stoop prevents this character
 istic from being too evident His face from exposure to the weather, is as,
 ruddy as sea captains, and a lighs dropping mustache covers his month.

ing prolonged it's straight shoot across he penin- sula This line has been accepted as the l4lst me- ridian and consequently the boundary. It has been run into the mountains ringing the Pacihc coast. Topography triangulation, hne-cutung, and monu' menting are now being carried along the located line.
 For the present the line will not run to Mount St Elias It would be possible, but not practical, 10 run it across the intervening so miles of snow and ice and towering mountain ranges To complete this part of the boundary the use or an alrsmp IS contemplated.
 In the interior the difficulties of the work are changed. Long wooded stretches, interrupted by barren ridges take the place of glaciers and crag- gy mountains. In place of snow fields there are heart breaking "ngger-head" swamps to be crossed, where the pack-horse becomes mired and exhaust ed and the temper of man is tried to the breaking point Supplies have to be ferried across the riv- CTS on log rafts, while the horses swim.
 There is no longer the guiding line of the coast to follow, and the surveyor must rely on his in stinct for topography and woOdcraft to pilot him through unbroken wilderness.
 The inconveniences of transportation have to be overcome, and year by year they becoming worse as the work carries us each year farther from the Yukon with it's steamers, For the season of 1909 the American party of 30 men will have to walk 300 miles before they can even start work
 Then the topographer with his theodolite tries to make up for lost time. Regular hours for work are ignored. days work is reckoned as ten hours, If the work be done in that time; if not we'll in midsummer the days are 24 hours long Holidays and Sundays see the same old routine even the Fourth of July
 Usually bases of supply are established at cef. tain known points before the opening of the sea son. These are called caches" Mistakes in the locating of cache are sometimes made and last season one surveyor in consequence of such mis- take without food for two days, finally reach ing another camp in rather disheveled condition It so happened that this other party was moving south toward the same cache and short ra- tions; nothing remained to do but beat a hur- red retreat SO miles northward, arriving at au. other base silh belts pulled in to the last notch.

WHO |S WH|TNEY?'
Career of Man Who Enters Cook
 Peary Polar Controversy.
Is Perfect Specimen of the clubman- Sportsman and Went North with peary to Hunt-A Good Writer
 and Story-TeIer.

New Haven Conn.-"What sort of man is Harry Whitney," This is inc question that is being asked of every New Havenite, man, woman or child. who ventures into the zone of the Cook Peary polar controversy. To reply to it accurately is a matter of u1ore than word or two.
 Harry Whitney has had an inter esting career The quiet sportsman he has been called, for his adventures have been enjoyed and suffered with out press notices. except when they conld not be avoided. The world has been the theater of his exploits, and the arctic regions were about the last section of the globe left for him to visit when he joined the Peary party.
 II is not commonly known that when Whitney decided to become d member of the Peary party half dozen other wealthy clubmen agreed to take the trip. There was no individual scheme on his part to join in the dash for the poe, but an agreement reached by clbmen. probably in a New fork club. after tales of previous adVen- lures had been exchanged and the view taken that the world seemed to be growing tame. Frank Carnegie was one of the party who agreed 10 take part in the expedition. He is nephew of Andrew Carnegie and his plans were vetoed as soon as they were men toned at home Indeed, veto was uttered upon all those of the party except Whitney, whose step-mothers wish did not dissuade him from his scheme
 Whitney left on the Roosevelt, which sailed from New Bedford July 9. 1908 He went to New Bedford some time before the party left there and had two neat power boats built there. of

Two reasons are given why King Manuel of Portugal may abandon his proposed visit to England One is that the kaiser has grown restive about it. because Germany was not included in the itinerary. The other is that fear obtains that the royal mother might take advantage of the kings absence to assume authority till his return which would produce dangerous com plcations.

The robbery of the Pennsylvania passenger train by lone bandit, at a point 52 miles west of Harrisburg, suggests that there are lonely spots on all railroad lines in which highway. men with nerve can ply their trade. But after the deed is done, the prob, lem is to get away. The chances are more heavily against the Pennsyl. vania robber than they would be against Montana or Idaho highway man with vast stretches of unoccupied country within easy reach.
