EXPLORER
Sketch Of ROAD Amundsen Who
Found Northwest Passage.
Norwegian Friend Of Or. Frederick u.
Cook, Only Man 60 Take Ship
j. from Atlantic to
Pacific.

Pittsburg. Pa.-Roald Amundsen.
now about thirty-seven years old and
with . record behind him Of but .
single Independent expedition. has
more or less proved himself one Of the
most competent arctic explorers who
have ever gone north. He is the irst
and the only man 80 far to accomplish
the long-attempted feat Of taking q
ship from the Atlantic. to the Pacific
by the Northwest passage. He has
made at a point within short dis
lance Of the magnetic pole the only
set of complete polar magnetic obser-
;.vations ever taken. These achieve
;ments, on which rests his fame. were
accomplished in the years 1903-05.
under conditions making them the
more remarkable Amundsen's sue
,cessful expedition was made at cost
iof only $4,000. in a tiny whaling
,sloop, the Gjoa. of but 20 feet length
over all and ~ tons burden.
Amundsen was born at Sarpsburg.
Norway. and in his childhood moved
with his parents to Christiania. His
parents destined him for medicine.
For one year he was medical stu
dent. but at his mothers death. when
he was 10 years old, he gave up the
intended career and went to sea. FoP

whom was Alderman Bud Winters.
and resuming the discussion Of the
day before, Alderman Winters ex-
pressed himself in his usual free and
profane way. In the midst of the dis:
cussion Noses suddenly up ended him:
self. with his rear legs In the air. and
and stood on his front hoofs. In vain
did Rev. Ebenezer speak to the brute:
he was compelled at last to continue
his rounds with Moses walking on
his fore feet. That night, and six
nights thereafter, Moses slept in his
stall with his rear roofs against the
rafters, and whenever Rev. Ebenezer
went for a drive he was followed by
a horde of interested parties. 1t was
very annoying.
Nothing that Rev. Ebenezer could
do seemed to have any effect on
Moses, and the sight Of the minister
of the gospel driving horse that was
a permanent circus caused consider
able scandal in these part. Aunt
Rhinocolura Betz, who is one of the
best contributors in the congregation.
gave notice that she was going to
withdraw, and other leading society
folks followed her example.
It was then that Rev. Ebenezer,
driven to desperation, sent for Alder
man Bud Winters. He had tried
everything in his own vocabulary un-
availingly, but the moment Alderman
Winters opened his luxurious store OF

Rev. Ebenezer Spillgath of Betz-
vile is in serious trouble with his
congregation at present, and It all
goes to show that one should not be
too forward in the good work Of smit-
ing the wicked. 1t is all right to smite
the wicked, for that is all the wicked
are good for but any one desiring to
smite should be careful not to pick
out a wicked that will smite back.
When Purdon's Three-Ring Circus
and Internationally Great Menagerie
was in town about q month ago. 1t
happened to be here on Thursday, and
Rev. Ebenezer was greatly angered
to find that when he opened prayer
meeting that night he had the meeting
entirely to himself, and he decided
that as the Egyptians-so to speak
had spoiled his meeting, he would
wreak vengeance on them and spell
the Egyptians. AS the circus had
moved on to Billingsville that night,
Rev. Ebenezer harnessed up his
mare Rebecca. and drove over, and
on the way over he made up his mind
how he would spoil the Egyptians
Rev. Mr.. Spillgath is noted in this
county as one of the most progressive
and slick horse traders on earth. and
he decided he would spoil the Egyp-
lions in horse trade. He was not
aware. at that time, he says, that the
Egyptians were just spelling to be
spoiled. -

Within the provinces Of Manitoba.
Saskatchewan and Alberta there are

are larger mills than will be found
anywhere In the Prairie Provinces.
d Last year the wheat crop totaled
over 100.000,000 bushels. This year
the crop will yield 100000 more. A
recent summary shows that on the LIST
of January. 1909. the surveyed lands
of the three western provinces, totaled
134. 900, GOO acres, of which about 3d.
10000 have been given as subsidies to
railways, 1900. 900 disposed of in 9TH
er ways and 100000 given by the
Canadian Government as free home

cuss words the effect on Moses was
instantaneous. For each variety oil
oath Moses performed a different act
and the only difficulty seemed to be
that Alderman Winters did not have
in stock the particular kind of swear
that would make Moses act like a
regular horse. The nearest he came
to it was when he said. "Blankety
blankety, your blank hide" At this
Moses did cake walk on four legs,
and Rev. Ebenezer had to be salts
fed with that. 1t was better than
having horse walk on its hands. But
Rev. Ebenezer is a man of bulldog
tenacity. and he is having Bud VIII
liams come up to the barn every night
and swear at Moses. He hopes some
day Alderman Winters will swear
Moses into regulation horse.
The trouble is that the congregation
knows it, and they are trying to de-
eide whether they shall discharge Rev.
Ebenezer for having profane language
fired OF by order in his barn, or dis.
charge him for having a horse that
does the cake walk.

Pathos Out of Place in Schools.

In an address at teachers insti-
tute Miss Martha Sherwood said that
sad and pathetic stories should have
no place in the public schools. She
declared the pupils great need is hui
morous stories and the kind that
make children roll on the ground
with laughter. Anything too make
them laugh. and laugh loudly" she
said. 1T makes them grow, puts

fully spoiled the Egyptians and that
he had spoiled them good and hard.
Many were the congratulations he re-
ceived from Uncle Ashdod Clute and
other prominent citizens of Betzville.
and he announced that it was his in
tention to call the horse, hitherto bear.
ing the sinful name of Skeezicks. by
the more appropriate name of Moses.
The next morning Rev. Ebenezer
harnessed Moses and started on one
of his accustomed tours of mercy ard
business. since his salary compels him
to peddle watermelons between his
stops at the homes of the sick and
soul-sad. and all went well until he
reached Main street Here he paused
and entered into q controversy with
Alderman Bud Winters. ON the merits
of free liquor as against the mulct tax.
when. suddenly. Moses arose upon his
hind legs. and stood gracefully bal
anced thus. 1t was thrilling scene
Alderman Winters scooting else
where; Rev. Ebenezer exiting from
his buggy head first. and Moses stand
ing on his hind legs. All this, set
against the background of the Bank
rupt Store and the post ONCE made
one of the pictures that will 60 down
in the history of Betzville forever.
As soon as Rev. Ebenezer regained
his composure he examined Moses.
and a very superficial examination
proved that Moses was still standing
on his rear legs. Nothing that Rev.
Ebenezer could do would bring the
horse to any other posture. The horse
seemed to want to stand that way.
and SO it stood that way. II Rev.
Ebenezer ever became angry he came
near it then. but a whip seemed to do
not bit of good, and when. with his
patience quite exhausted. Rev. Eben-
ezer entered his buggy and whipped
up. Moses went his way on his hind
logs. Many said it was as good as a
circus.
That night Moses slept in his stall
on his hind legs. while Rev. Ebenezer
lay awake wondering what had caused
the beast to act in this strange way.
BY daylight he decided that some
word said in the presence of the horse
must have been signal for the act,
and he proceeded to the barn and re-
peated to the horse, as nearly as pos
sible, what he had said to Alderman
Bud Winters. Nothing worth chroni-
cling happened, and with a sad heart
Rev. Ebenezer harnessed the upright
horse and went his way.

streets he met large body of citi-

Amundsen had his first taste of ex'
ploration when in 1897 he went as
first officer with the Belgica on Ger.

what he learned of the work and ad-
from the second Norwegian polar ex-
petition of 1898 he became filed with
arctic ambitions of his own. He formed
the project not of attaining the geo
graphic pole sought by SO many. but
of trying the long-neglected North
west passage and approaching and
studying while on his way the little
known magnetic pole. Ross in his
expedition of 1881 had made observa-

studying its phenomena. but for some

Can Francisco on the Jeanette. The
tribe, according to Bower, lives en- a

They are tall and look like the North
American Indians. The explorer was
cordially welcomed, and he got many
rich furs from them. From the town
of the Nunacaotics Bower proceeded
farther north, where he discovered
immense copper deposits. On this
trip Bower lost one eye through the

adventures had to walk $50 miles to
