END IS NEAR
Cook Peary Controversy to
be Settled in this Coun-
try Soon.
By United Press Wire.

New York. Sept. 18-With the Scan
dinavian- n-American liner Oscar III,
with DIR. Frederick A. Cook on board,
due to arrive in New York on Tues
day morning, and with the Arctic
steamer Roosevelt, bearing Command.
er Peary and party, due to reach
Sydney, N. s., on the forenoon of the
same day the controversy which
hinges about the real discoverer of
the North Pole will center in the
United States during the coming
week.
1t is believed Peary will not tar
ry at Sydney in fact, a private car
has been ordered made ready TO be
attached to the first southbound train
leaving Sydney after the arrival of
the Roosevelt. This would indicate
that Peary will hasten with all speed
to either New York or to Washing
ton. Such a step would, it is believed
force both Peary and Cook to SHOW
'heir hands" to the scientific world.
and In a speedy termination of the
wordy war started by their rival
claims.

HOW EXPLORERS USE THE
SEXTANT.

The sextent, whose service In the
polar trips has been reported by the
explorers, is an instrument small
enough to be conveniently held in the
hand, and is equally we'll adapted for
measuring the altitude of celestial
objects, In order to obtain the latitude
and local time, or for measuring the
angle between the moon and sun or
the moon and fixed star, to ascer-
tain the longitude.
4 II is called sextant because the
measure is recorded on an are of 60 de-
xree,s one-sixth of a circle. It consises
of frame, usually of metal, stiff
Tened by cross braces. The arc at the
bottom OF the frame is marked off
with double the number of degrees
actually measured. This is done be-
cause the fixed and movable glasses
attached to the instrument give a
double reflection Of the objects OBJ
Served and thus form an angle with
reference TO each other equal to only
half the angular distance between
such objects, one of which is seen di-
rectly and the other by reflection. The
arc OF l20 degrees thus records the
angle.
< The observer takes the instrument
In his hand and holds the telescope
horizontally. Looking through the
telescope he may see the horizon
through the transparent surface OF
the horizon glass. Then, II wishing
10 bring the sun into line, he mani
Iulates the mirror as a child handles
q bit OF looking glass for the purpose
of catching the suns glare and throw
ing it into the eyes of companion.
He turns the arm until the mirror
catches its reflection and throws 1t
back TO the silvered surface OF the
glass. When the sun is thus made to
coincide with the horizon, the Sec
ton OF the graduated arc over which |
the arm has passed indicates the
OF the angle in degrees,
which is exactly determined by the |
fractional scale or verniee.
Arabian astronomers are credited
with having used a sextant as far
back as the year 995. with radius of |
80 feet 8 inches. The modern instru
ment was invented about 1880.

MANY SNAGS
Loves. Course Very Rough

Aged bride.
BY United Press wire.

Hartford, Conn, Sept. 1S.A~"The
course of true love never runs

ly impressed on the mind of Charles
r.. Goddard, a Yale student, and
the youthful husband of Lucinda M.
Treat, a seventy-year-old widow when
he was arraigned in police. court to.

They fall desperately in love and

be said of Commander Peary's speech
and action. From all that has yet ap-
peared 1t is safe to assume that one
will be about as able to prove he has
accomplished as the other. No more
and no less in the line of substantial
tion will be required from either.
If Commander Peary Is able to
Prove as he claims he Is tnat he is
the only white man that has ever
reached the pole, DIR. Cooks claims
will go glimmering and he will go
down TO history as rank imposter
and seeker after fame that did not
telong to him.
Opinion Is perhaps almost equally
divided on the following PROPOSE
tions:
Cook alone discovered the pole.
Peary alone discovered the pole.
Both Cook and Peary discovered the
pole.
Neither Cook nor Peary discovered
the pole.
While such belief is general Il Is
ulmcult 10 appreciate how either can
prove the other a pole "faker' until
be has demonstrated his own claims.
Let us all hope that Cook and Peary
working independently, and each un-
knowing OF what the other may have
accomplished, have discovered the
pole. Both are Americans and we
may congratulate ourselves that to
this nation and her daring sons be-
longs the glory of the achievement
that has fired the ambition of so many
men.
But candor compels the admission
that Commander Peary behaves in
an nuamerican manner in his treat
ment OF DR.. Cook and the latter's
claims. II Cook is not entitled to he
credit he claims Commander Peary
may rest assured that his own glory

PUZZLED
The Doctors Scratch Their

By united Press wire.

BY United Press Wire.
New York, Sept 1S-Physicians all
over the country are amazed today
over results of an austopsy performed
here yesterday upon the body Of
Moses Fult, seventy-one years old, by
Coroner's Physician O'Hanlon, and
Professor Larkin, OF Columbia univer-
sity.
The operation found that Fult had
practically been without kidneys
since birth and that his left arm had
been amputated. In addition, his heart
was being eaten away by cancer so
rare that the doctors had to search
several medical books before they
found any mention of 1t. Both the
kidney trouble and the cancer of the
heart were enough to have killed FIVE
times over, they said yet he died of
old age.
