BY CHARLES p. STEWART.

Press Assoc latIona.l

COPENHAGEN. Sept. 7-"Buliy
for Peary"
This was the first exclamation of
DR. Frederick A. Cook when | hand.
ed him the dispatch from Com
mander Robert T. peary TO the
United Press, announcing his sue
cessful quest for the North Pole.
There can be no doubt IN the
mind Of anyone Yho knows Peary
but thai the message came from
him" aaid Dl Cook
THE wording makes me feel sure
that he has reached the pole. II
sounds 70 like peary.
Praises for peary.
= am mighty glad that Peary has
been successful, for he III one ~
the bravest aud most pergevefing
men who ever vent north.
He Deserve all the honor that
VIII come 10 him. rnd IN addition !
am certain that hsa observations
and reports viii corroboFate the

'of course I; would be hypocriti-
cal Tor ms 10 attempt ia conceal the
fact that ! ain delighted at having
been able TO plant the American flag
at the pole year before peary
reached 'he spot"
Cook Appears Nettled.
Despite this generous tribute Il Is
obvious thar Peary's messages have
netiled DIR Cook. He stated today
that owing TO his desire 10 rejoin
his wife and children he may alter
his plans and SAN for New York
from Antwerp within a week
II IL generally believed that DR..
Cook deems Il advisable 10 retain
NE strategic advantage already
gained and get back TO New York
ahead of Peary
Wives In the Meas.
DR.. Cook declared that he was
merely a friendly rival Of Com.
mander Pcnry. but scientists here
expect an early opening for the
Cook.Peary controversy. aud pre-.
dict that Il will break into an open
feud with nasty features.
Peary's adherents declare that
Or. Cook stole march on PeAry.
~ho had educated him IN polar ex.
plorAifon.
DIR. Cooks friends claim that
Cook originated the plan " making
winter dash for the pole" and
that peary copied II.
The bitter feeling, II IL reported,
will extend TO the wives of the ex.
piorers, who already have given
out yelled statements indicating
their attitudes.

Coroner Schlegel persists in his

considerably more than $1,000 for

Believing that Messeryille. the
suicide of few days ago, had
sufficient funds in the bank for

nearly 10 months ago, while Fred
was going down to his work. The
train blocked the crossing at
Sprague and Division. The carpen-
ter needed full days wages and
could not afford to be late. There
is where he fell into "Old Man
Troubles" trap.
Just as he started to swing HIM
self between two cars across a
coupling in his impotence to be on
his way an awful crash deafened
his ears. He felt a terrible, sicken-
ing pain in his leg and felt himself
being dragged along the ground.
The train was backing up, his leg
was caught in the coupling and
we'll, he was right before the jaws
of death when switchmen saved
him.
His family knew It's first great
grief when they brought him home
all MANNED and bleeding. His wife
cared for him there, for they could
not hire both a doctor and a nurse.
Blood poisoning-just what the doc

for his recovery.
That was not the worst.

The discovery of this new pest
was made by the Spokane County
Horticultural society at it's meet
ing last Saturday, when such well
known farmers and fruit growers
as c. l.. Smith, E. P. Gilbert, A. C.
Craig, A. R. Ristau, w. H. Houston
and A. ]. Topping reported having
observed the work of the insect.
These men admitted that 1t was a
new thing in the bug and insect
line and that it might mean the
destruction of the apple crop Of the
county at critical time, after the
fruit has attained it's growth.
BY unanimous consent 1t was
agreed to send apples containing a
of the worm to the Wash
ington State college at Pullman,
the bureau of entomology at Wash
ington. the agricultural college at
Corvallis. Ore. and r. H. Petit of
Lansing. Mich. The meeting of
the horticultural society was held
