THEY HAD NEVER
SEEN WHITE MEN
Strange Tribe of Eskimos
Found by Whalers.
A PANIC SEIZED THE PEOPLE
When They First Saw Whale
Ships, But They Finally
Became DOcile.

On the bleak northwest coast of
FRINGE Albert Land, Captain William
Mogg, of the whaling schooner Olga,
has just found men who in spite of
the hundreds of Arctic expeditions
that have swept through the north
had never seen white men before, and
who gaZed upon the white skinned
strangers with the same awe with
which Columbus was greeted on San
Salvador over 400 years ago.
IT is only in the last five years that
whale ships have ventured into the
waters that wash these distant shores
When the whalers did venture there
they little expected to find any evil
dence of human habitation. To their
surprise they found abandoned food
caches, deserted camping grounds and
other signs of recent habitation.
AS they saw no people they natural
ly inferred that the country was be
ing used as a summer hunting ground
by natives from the Canadian main
land far to the south. These natives
professed ignorance Of such hunting
grounds.
The puzzle was not solved until last
July, when the Olga in her northern
cruise sighted human forms on e hill
several miles inland. These forms
proved to be old men who were ad-
vancing toward the shore where the
ship lay at anchor. AS they APP
preached 1t was seen that they car
ried no weapons whatever and walked
with arms extended as sign OF
peaceful inclinations.
The old men We're Eskimos and
spoke the regular Eskimo language
with ONLY slight variations. They sait
that they had never seen white men
before, and We're so much afraid
of them that they pcculd not be coax
ed on board the vessel. They hlew
nothing about cereal foods or flour,
and when offered pilot bread, laugh

They said that they lived on seals,
bears, whales, caribou and feathered
game, which they killed with bows
and arrows and spears or captured
in snares and curiously contrived
traps. They knew nothing about the
fur trade and said that the skins
were always cut up with the meat
and divided among the hunters en-
gagged in making the kill. They
were neatly dressed in furs and APP
peared to be well fed and, perfectly
happy.
When whale ships first appeared on
the horizon panic seized the people
and they fled inland. Each year they
had fled. leaving as little as possible
to attract the attention of the new
corners. AS they lay concealed behind
the ridges they listened in breathless
terror to the crashing of the bomb
guns used by the whalers.
At last curiosity got the better of
them and they decided to find out the
why ami wherefore of it all. A coun-
ell was called and ii was decided to
send messengers out to the next ship
that came. The old men volunteered
to go because they said that if the
strangers killed them it would not
matter so much.
These rude ambassadors said that
they had many people inland, but re-
fused to tell where they were. They
had never seen guns before and were
very suspicious Of men who would
be guilty of carrying such weapons

THE COUNTY INSTITUTE.

The Ohio County Annual Institute
convenes October 18th. In view OF
this early coming together of the
pedagOtic life Of the county, it may
not be aIniss TO discuss some phases
of this important institution in their
relation TO all teachers OF whatever
experience.
The growth of the County institute
educational progress. Counties whose
teachers have made little progress
have had poor institutes, small at
tendance. no enthusiasm. Counties
having good schools, longer terms and
a front rank in the new education,
have correspondiEgly excellent insti-
tntes in which il is a pleasure to be
enrolled. either as teacher or as a
visitor You see my position, that
county can be measured as to her edu-
cational worth, by the conditions mani
fest during the five days Cf her coun-
ty institute. Any teacher who for
frivolous reasons absents himself from
the Gnnuai institute is not worthy the
patronage of the public. Even The
picture men," as they are called,now
have meetings in which they discuss
the art Of salesmanship. 1t is indeed
fine art. They 90 out from these
conferences with such training and
confidence that the most intelligent
citizen must give heed and have the
interior of his home urnamented with
portraits. The insurance solicitors
meet every summer, often going 1000
miles to spend a few days in annual
institute. In every great profession
and business the men and women who
are forging to the front are availing
themselves of these opportunities. Or
ganization is the spirit of the times.
We strive to know the best the in
tellectual markets of the world afford I;
the only means to this end is in the
assembly. The meetings of Colonial
DAYS were the training schools which
made it possible for our forefathers
TO build the greatest Republic the
world has ever known.

educational life in the last decade;
