 The statement Is as follows:
 Commander Peary says that my sledges were not fitted to Arctic trav- el, and that he would not care to voy- age in the Arctic with them. The only sledge Commander Peary saw was half a one, which I had given ito MT. Whit ney as a souvenir. The remainder of it had been used to make bows and arrows.
 Foolish to Subject Instruments to un-
 necessary Risk.
 'As to my reasons for leaving my instruments with Mir. Whitney he had told me that the Eric was coming to Etah and would take him over to the American side to hunt big game and would come back later to Annootok. The distance from Annootok to Up- per Navik by the route which I was compelled to follow was nearly 700 miles. In that journey I had to travel over high land in two places. with gla-i ciers and difficult places to negotiate. The ice was extremely rough and there was a good. deal of water to be ex- pected that would have subjected the instruments to a risk which was en- tirely unnecessary. when MT. Whitney awaited a ship to go to Etah for him, upon which he expected to return di- rect to America.
 By going to Upper Navik I hoped to get gack by the end of July or the middle of August. I wanted to see my family as soon as possible. as I had been separated from them for over two years, while MT. Whitney did not ex- pect to get back before October Did Not Look for Traces of Peary's
 Record.
 AS to the charge that I had not found traces of Commander Pearys record at Cape Thomas Hubbard, the point which Commander Peary would call Cape Thomas Hubbard is a round promontory and it would be difficult to find any distinct point which could be positively recognized as Cape Thomas Hubbard. From Commander Peary's map I am absolutely unable to locate Cape Thomas Hubbard. We did not seraeh for any cairn where records might be deposited Iii fact, did not know that Commander Peary had left any record there

Hoover Rowlands Company, One of
Marion's Newest Firms Finds Its
Quarters Too Small.

That Marion folks and folks from
the surrounding town are not slow to
recognize a rignt-dp-to-now furniture
shop and are properly appreciative
of the same is being demonstrated in
the case of the Hoover-Rowlands COM
pany, retailers OF high grade furni-
ture and carpets. Some time ago the
managers of the company looked over
the ground in Marion and decided it
was fertile for ,he establishment of a
store of this kind. That there was
wisdom in the decision may be CLEANED
from recent reports from the directors
who place their local store at the top
of the list of moneymakers.
! Recently IL was found the room oc-
cupied by the company in this city
was insufficient to accommodate its needs
and negotiations were opened for the
floor space above the Strelitz clothing
store and to the alley in the rear of
the StIelitz and Hoover
stores The space was obtained, Civ
ing two thousand square feet of dis
play room. The firm is jubilant over
securing this much needed space and
preparations are being made for fit
ting out several exhibition parlors.
Artists have already furnished plans
for the arrangement of these dainty
rooms and the furniture will be placed
effectively for the enlightment of the
busy housekeeper.
The new space will be occupied as
soon as it can he placed in condition
and the manager, Mr. Dundore

niture line for his patrons and visit

As the result of dissatisfaction on
the part of residents at Caledonia,
superintendent C. A. Allen, of the

stating that in the future passenger
train No. 10, which is due in that viii
lage near O'Clock a. m. will be sub
ject to flag stop for either persons
who desire to stop there or to board
the train. The majority of the other
trains passing through the village
will also be subject to the flag stop
and the service will be very much
bettered at that place.
The complaints of residents in
small towns all along the line has CIV
en- much trouble since the inaugura .

for the most part all of the villages
have been given such service as is
possible under the conditions. 1t is
probable that no changes will be
made in the time card for some time,
despite the fact that the table was
largely an experiment when 1t was
placed in effect.
