Teton, the British army officer, who re.
Gently returned after an unsuccessful
dash for the South Pole, declared that
no one has any right to be skeptical
of the statements of Dr.. Frederick A.
Cook
Nothing is impossible, and the
statements made by DR.. Cook, al
though if he travelled 40 geographic
al miles day in approaching the pole,
it is something no other arctic expe-
dition has been able to accomplish, -
said Lieutenant Shackleton.
After reaching the pole and return
ing to land he may have lived with the
Esquimaux until this year and this
would explain his having reached the
goal in month and taking a year to
return. The probability that Cook
travelled over smooth ice is unique

A SECRET OF THEIR SUCCESS.

The writer returned a short time
ago from trip through a number Of
western states in which he invessigat-
ed first hand the conditions under
which fruit Is grown in the famous
Hood river, Rogue river and Yakima
valleys. A conviction which was forced
upon him was that If fruit growers in
some other parts of the country, espe-
c1ally central and eastern states. were
as well organized. cared for their or
chards as scientifically and painstak-
tngly as growers in the valleys men,
toned a long step would be taken to-
ward putting fruit production on a
satisfactory and remunerative basis.
1t Is true that soil and climatic condi-
ton especially favor the owner Of the
western fruit ranch, but these are only
partial factors in his success. as Is
demonstrated by the fact that some
who live in these favored districts are
ranches are not being managed as they
ought to be. either through lack OF in
clination or ability. or both. A feature
which contributes much toward sue
cessful fruit growing in Oregon and
Washington and some other western
states is the fact that the spraying of
fruit trees to keep in check insect and
fungous pests is made compulsory by
state laws. which empower the state
fruit inspector or his assistants to
spray or cut down any trees which the
owner cannot or will not spray. These
regulations mean a reduction Of in
06S<St md fppnr 80 ntvnsv
the benefit OF which to the fruit grow
ing interests being almost incalculable.
Another respect in which the western
fruit growers have an advantage is in
the admirable way in which they are
organized in associations whose pur-
pose is to promote the interest Of the
grower in a general way and in par
ticular to give him helpful suggestion
In the growing Of his crops and also
In the matter Of packing his fruit and
finding a satisfactory and reliable mar
ket for it. In the case OF the Hood
River association all fruit belonging to
members of the association Is sold col.
lectively, representatives of houses
which would like to handle 1t being
on hand to bid for it. If the prices
offered are not deemed reasonable by
the executive board the boxed fruit Is
placed in their own big cold storage
warehouses to await a more favorable
market. Much of their success is ex-
planned when 1t is said that In these
sections fruit raising is the chief and
primary business, and quite naturally.
having their all at stake, they take
sensible precautions to see that they
are not defrauded or hoodwinked at
any stage Of the game. The care they
give their trees and the pains they take
in packing and marketing their fruit
may we'll be called the premium which
they pay on an insurance policy which
guarantees them success, and they
don't wait until their orchards are bro
ken down and weakened by disease
before they take out the policies.

A REMARKABLE FACULTY,

While the reasoning faculty as usual
~ understood seems to be largely lack
ing in animals, their sense Of sight.
hearing and smell seems to be even
more acute than with human beings,
as IS also their sense Of place and d.
rection. Familiar instances showing
this last faculty, which seems to tran
scend the faculties Of both sight and
smell, are the migratory fight Of wild
fowl. the everyday movement of bees
from field to hive, the return Of the
homing pigeon. the ability Of the
northern seal to find the narrow open
ing Of its home after going miles for
food in darkest seas under thick ice.
the return of u cat or dog taken miles
from home in box or sack and that
common case of the ability Of the old
family horse to find the road home ON
a pitch dark night when the driver is
fuddled. These dumb brutes
that are entirely subservient to mars
will and reason nevertheless outstrip
him in this wonderful trait

BANK H0LO-UP
IN WILD WEST
STYLE F0|LED
Facing Robbers Pistol. Clerk
katz Smashed Glass to
Attract Help.

A bank holdup Of the most approved
Western style. planned by a man with
two little boys wearing knickerbockers
as his confederateo, was foiled to o-day By
the quick wit OF a clerk WHO was alone
in the office when the three would.5e
hIghwaymen entered.
Samuel Katz, twenty-six years old
Is the bookkeeper for the banking and
money exchange house OF Max Kobre
at No 81 Grand street, Williamsburg
a branch Of the bank at No. 40 Canal
street, Manhattan Katz was arrang.
ing his money in packages and had
, about 5000 spread out before him in his
cashiers cage when n man and two
little boys entered.
The stranger asked II he could pur-
chase three steamship tickets, and
when katZ went to rear room In
search Of them the man entered the
cage, the door TO which had been left
aJar.
katz. returning, was confronted by
the thief, with big revolver, and told
that II he made the slightest outcry he
would have his head blown off
He ordered Katz to hold up his hand,
and the two boys went TO the from,
door and closed it.
Realizing he was in tight place.
katz seized paper weight and Du,led
It through the window back Of nj:
desk. The crash OF glass attracted the
attention OF dozens OF passe.sby, who
made dash for the front OF the bank
As the boys had failed to lock the door.
they had no difficulty in gaining en-.

AS the crowd came In the boys slipped
out and escaped. The man In the cage
dropped his pistol and striking out right

tempted to stop him, gained the door
and dashed down Grand street and 10
away.
A call was sent for the police ana
when Capt. Dooley and his reserves ar.
rived the crowd was so dense about the
bank that traffic was held up. After
hearing Katz's story, Capt. Dooley told
him he had been the victim Of Joke,
and that the man was only some
drunken bum" who wanted 10 have
fun with him.

tempted is but block away from where
