SANE OLD STORY"-COOK.
Says Esqumaus We're Instructed
Not to Tel the Truth.

cleveland oct I2-''It is the same old story"
said Dr. Cook. when he saw the statement issued
by Commander Peary, together with the map &C
comsanyng it,
u have replied TO the points raised a dozen
times" he continued The map published by
Commander Peary in itself indicates that the
F,soutrraua have res rected their promise made to
me that they would not give any information 10
Pearv or his men The Esquimaus were instructed
not to tell Nj P-ary any of his party Of our
trip over the pOla They were told 10 say
had been FAR north. They have kept their word.
M Whitney has said that. during the cross
examination conducted by Commando Peary and
others Of his expedition. the Esquimaus lid not
understand the gue-s.1Es put 10 them or the map
which was laid before them. Their replies to the
questions put have been twisted TO suit per
verted interest.
Il will not enter into any argument about the
matter. but I viii bring the Esqumaus TO New York
at my own expense. and they will prove as did Mr.
whitney all that I have claimed"
Or. Cook would not consent 10 go over the details
contained in NJ. Peary's statement any further
than this
The Esquimaus," he said are only too willing
to say something that they think will please their
questioneTs.
The explorer not at all perturbed by the &C
cusations. confident smile fickered his
bronzed face when they were shown TO him Il
fully expected to see something of the kind he
said The document looks formidable SO
many signatures, and will probably appear TO
the public There is, however. nothing in it. it
is based upon the disturbed and replies Of
persons who We're told not TO give any details.
Rasmussen, who will be here shortly has seen
the Fsquimaus and knows the real s'ory.' the
doctor continued They did not try 70 deceive
him He was with them for fourteen days They
know, him and told him everything. He speaks the
Esouimau language, for ne is sem-Esquimau
himself and the people have the most complete
confidence in him"
DR. Cook then proceeded TO the lecture hall in
the utmost good humor and confidence to deliver
his lecture.

The Burlington Railroad
Reduces Time Between
Chicago and Denver

The Burlington Railroad to-day Of
icially announces, effective September
II, cutting the time of its fast Denver
trains bringing the cities of Chicago
and Denver two hours closer together
than has been possible since June, 1907.
The schedule of 1907 was heightened on
all lines because the heaviest traffic
ever handled in the United States was
continually in transit on all railroads.
Besides some of the lines were carrying
on construction work, which mado il
impossible for them to maintain the
schedule in effect at that time. The
Burlington has proven its ability to
make the schedule by running its trains
precisely on time 1856 consecutive days.
There is reason why greater speed
is possible. The Burlington has Just
completed an expenditure of over s22, =
900, 600 in track improvement; 81, 500, =
900 strengthening bridges and building
new bridges of reinforced concrete.
S4s7, 600 in additional telegraph facilities
and blocking stations. SO that there is
positive block behind every train op-
Grating on the System carrying pas
sengers. Among other expenditures
since the Hill interests took control Of
this property over $40, 900, 900 has been
spent for new and better equipment.
The Burlington has. for over two
years, conducted an exhaustive daily
system of speed tests and established
on scientific basis the maintaining on
all trains a maximum schedule without
exceeding safety speed limit. 1t has
installed ON 26l engines registering
speed recorders. making II possible to
bring the train up TO maximum uni
form speed maintaining il so that the
schedule can be shortened and reach
destination on time without reckless
running. This is proven by the fact
that the burlington carried over 20.
900. 900 pnss myers during the year end
ing June 3O,h, 1909. without single
fatality. Coupled with the shortening
Of the time by the Burlington It's trains
will carry complete set Of new equip
ment of distinctive type and finer than
anything produced up to date in the
United States. The combination Of the
Hill lines were the first to shorten the
time from Chicago. st. Louis and Kan
sas City to Seattle. and II is the only
through service between these points
without change. They are the first to
shorten the time between Chicago and
Denver, making Il possible to reach all
Colorado points quicker than heretofore.

A Boy Who Knew How.

An American boy nineteen years Of
age, once found himselfin London where
he was under the necessity of earning
his bread. He was not like many young
men in these days. who are willing to
do anything" because they know how
to do nothing; but he had learned how
to do something. and knew just where
to go to find something to do; so he
went straight to printing office and
inquired if help were needed.
where are you from?" inquired the
foreman.
America" was the answer.
"Ah." said the foreman, ''from
America, seeking employment as printer
Well. do you really understand the art
of printing! Can you set type7"
The young man stepped to one ofthe
cases and in brief space set up this
passage from the first chapter of John:
Nathaniel said unto him. Can there
any good thing come out of Nazareth
Phillip saith unto him, Come and see"
II was done 50 quickly. 20 accurately
and administered delicate reprocf so
appropriate and powerful. that il at
once gave him influence and standing
with all the Office. He worked diligently
at his trade. refused to drink beer or
any kind of strong drink, saved his
money, returned to America, became a
printer. publisher. author. postmaster
general. member Of Congress, siRner

DUE TO MENTAL SUGGESTION
Strange Cause Alleged for Two Sui
cideS in BrookIvn.

New York, May pa strange men,
tai suggestion is attributed by the
coroner as the cause of two sensa-
tional suicides here. Mrs. Ella Fried
mann leaped to her death from the
front window of her fourth story
apartment in the Williamsburg sec.
ton of Brooklyn, presumed to have
been mentally unbalanced by recent
illness. Fireman Thomas J. McCue
of fire engine company No. 14O was
passing through the street at the time
and after assisting the police in re.
moving the woman's body to her
apartments he went to his home. A
half hour later he climbed to the roof
of an apartment building seven blocks
away and jumped off. He also was
instantly killed. McCue and Mrs.
Friedman did not know each other.
The coroner decided that Mrs.
friedman perhaps received her in.
spiration from the suicide of another
woman who four years ago killed her
self by jumping from the same win
dow and that McCue's inspiration
came from witnessing the suicide of
Mrs. friedman.
