 By pr. Frederick A. Cook, First White
 Man to Reach the North Pole IN URING two days of chilly blus-
 ter the sleds were forced along D with encouraging results, and
 on the evening of March 26, with pedometer and other method of dead reckoning for position, we were placed at latitude S4 degrees 53 minutes. The western horizon re- mained consistently undisturbed. A brisk storm, it seemed, was gathering, but it was a long time in coming eastward. On the evening of the Beth we prepared for the blast and built the igloo stronger than usual, hoping that the horizon would be cleared by good blow on the morrow and afford us a day of rest. The long, steady marches, without time for recuperation, had be- gun to check our enthusiasm
 In the daily monotony of hardship we had learned to appreciate, more and more the joy of the sleeping bag. It was the only animal comfort which af- forded relief to our life of frigids, and with it we tried to force upon the weary body in the long marches a pleasing anticipation.
 In the evening, after the blocks of snow walled dome in which we could

 Not particularly anxious about the outcome of the storm and with senses blunted by overwork and benumbed with cold, we sought the comfort of the bags.
 Buried Under the Snow.
 Awakened in the course of a few hours by drifts of snow about our feet, it was noted that the wind had bur rowed holes in the weak spots through the snow wall Still. we were bound not to be cheated out of few hours sleep, and with one eye open we turned over. Later I was awakened by fall ing snow blocks. fs
 Forcing my head out of the ice in- cased hood, I saw that the dome had been swept away and that we were being buried under a dangerous weight of snow In some way had tossed about sufficiently during sleep to keep on top of the accommodating drift, but my companions were out of sight and did not respond to loud call.
 After a little search a blowhole was located, and in response to another call came Eskimo shouts. Violent efforts were made to free their bags, but the snow settled on them tighter with each tussle
 I was surprised a few moments later as was digging their breathing place open to feel them burrowing through

 The fur stuffed boots were pulled, and the bearsl1in pants were stripped.
 Then half of the body was quickly l pushed into the bagss-A brick of penn
 mican was next taken cut. and the teeth were set to the grind of this bonelike substance. The appetite was
 always large, but half pound of cold withered beef and tallow changes a
 hungry mans thoughts effectually. The tea, an hour in making, was now
 ready, and we rose on elbows to take it. Under the influence of the warm drink the fur coat with it's mask of ice was removed. Next the shirt, with it's ring of ice about the waist, comes off, giving the last sense of shivers. Push ing farther into the bag, the hood was pulled over the face, and we were lost l to the world of ice.
 The warm sense of mental and phys
 teal pleasure which follows is an in | tersting study The movement of oth- CTS, the sting of the air, the noise of torturing winds, the binding rays of heatless, sun, the pains of driving snows and all the bitter elements were
 absent The mind, freed of the agita- tion of frost, wandered to home and better times under these peculiar cir cumstances; there comes pleasing sense with the touch of ones own warm skin, while the companionship
 of the arms and legs. freed of their cumbersome furs, makes a new dis coyery in the art of getting next to oneself
 In the Heart of Storm. On March 27 it blew a half gale at
 night, but at noon on the following
 day the wind eased. The bright sun
 and rising temperature were too tempting to remain quiescent, and, though the west was still darkened by threatening clouds, the dogs were put to the sIeds and off they went among the wind swept hummocks. We had not gone many miles before the first
 rush of storm struck us.
 Throwing ourselves over the sleds, | we waited the passing of the icy blast. There was no suitable snow near to begin the erection of a shelter, but
 few rkes northward was a promising area 1Sf camp and to this we hoped to take ourselves after few mo- ments' rest. The squall soon spent its force, and in the wind which followed good progress was made without suf- fering severely The temperature was fl degrees below zero F. and the ba- rometer 29.O5.
 Once in moving order. the drivers re- quired very little encouragement to
 prolong the effort to a fair days march in spite of the weather. As the sun settled in the western gloom
 the wind increased it's fury and forced us into camp. Before the gloom was finished a steady. rasping wind brush ed the humm mocks and piled up the
 snow in large dunes like the sands of home shores.
 The snow house was not cemented with water. The tone of the wind did
 not seem to indicate danger, and, fur
 thermore, we were beginning to real
 ize the great need of fuel economy.
 We therefore did not deem it pru-
 dent to use oil for the fire to melt

NO HARTMAN COIN
FOR STATE OF IOWA
State Cannot Collect Collateral In.
heritance Tax From the Estate
of the Late Maenate

DES MONIES, Oct. 14.-Iowa has
no chance to get a slice from the es.
tate of the late Edward H. Hartman,
not even through the medium of the
states inheritence tax.
When the subject was first discuss
ed it was thought that the state could
by reason of it's collateral Inheritance
tax, collect that tax from the estate
based on the proportion of the estate
which is located in Iowa. A careful
reading of the law, however, shows
that there is nothing in it providing
for a direct inheritance tax and as Mr.
Hartman willed his entire property
to his wife, and as Iowa has no direct
Inheritance tax, the state does not
have the ghost of show to collect
anything from the properties operated
in Iowa.
Senator Cosson, assistant attorney
general. in discussing the matter this
morning said that if the last legisla
ture had passed the direct inheritance
tax, then the state would be in posi-
ton to tax those Hartman properties
which are located in Iowa.

DENoUNCE
King of Spain is Laying All the
Blame Upon His Advisers and
is Sorry For Action

MADRID by way of Haydee, Oct.
14.-Information received today from
Spanish court circles say King Al
phonso is Mortified at the storm of
protest which has poured in over the
execution of Francisco Ferrer. He is
denouncing the ministers on whose adj
vice he allowed the court martial SEN
tence of death to be carried out, de-
claring that they kept him in ignor-
ance of the real state of the public
mind, not only in Spain but in all
Europe 1t is reported that the Span
jsh cabinet offered to resign but that
Alphonso demanded that his ministers
remain at their post and help to ex-
trcate him from the difficulty. There
is no doubt in the minds of those WAC
have seen the king since the execu-
ton, that had he known Ferrer's death
would have caused such furor, he
would have gone to any extremes to
have prevented it. Scores of death
threats have been received at the pal
ace to guard against the execution OF
which the palace guards have been
doubled and a regiment of troops mo-
bilized for emergency action.

CEDAR FALLS, Iowa. Oct. IL
George Hugh Birney, for some years
pastor of the First Methodist church
here but has been assigned to the
biggest Methodist church at Grand
Rapids, Mich, is mourning the loss Of
400 sermons which he has been pre-
pairing since his college days. The
pastor had left the sermons in an old
suit case, He went to Mason City to
attend the conference leaving orders
that the trash in the house be de-
stroyed after his household goods
We're packed. The party who remain
ed to pack up discovered the old
valise and not knowing the import
ance of the contents, threw it into
the furnace, destroying valise, sermons
and the work of years. The loss is
very keenly felt by the pastor, par
ticularly now, that he is entering a
new field of labor.

Taft absolutely refused to discuss

Postmaster General Hitchcock, who
