 It is thought here that Commander Peary may be able to get through some particulars of his far northern journey.
 The Roosevelt encountered heavy weather after leaving Indian Harbor and allowing for recoaling and her slow speed. 1t is possible that she will not arrive at North Sydney before Sun day. It is considered probable the Roosevelt will stop at Red Bay, where there is telegraph station.

 scfentists win Wait.
 Washington, Sept. S-When Profes- sor Willis L. Moore, president of the National Geographic Society was acquainted today with the statements of Commander Peary and pr. COOK indicating a serious clash between the two and the raising of the question of veracity as to which was the first to reach the north pole he said that this simply confirmed the wisdom of the course adopted last night by the society in deciding to await the pro- duction of positive truth on this im- portant point.
 Professor Moore is still of the opinion that. a careful scrutiny by astronomical experts of the observa- tions taken by the explorers will suf- flee to demonstrate the soundness of the claims made by Peary and Cook and such an examination will surely be had before the National Geographic Society commits itself.
 Believes Cook,s Story. Copenhagen, Sept. S.-Daugaard Jen- sen. Inspector of Danish North Green- land. told a representative of the As- sociated Press today that he was per- fectly convinced of the~ truth of Dr. Cooks narrative. Jensen first heard that Dr. Cook had attained the pole from Eskimos; he then met Dr. Cook who confirmed the story.
 Jensen was with pr. Cook for two months, and during this time the ex- plorer never deyiated one iota in his assertions. His manner. Jensen said at all times created a feeling of confi- dence.

Going to Meet Penrx.

St. Johns. N. B.. Sept. 8-Herbert L. Bridgeman, who reached here shortly before midnight tonight. will arrive in Sydney tomorrow evening.
 Accompanying him are a dozen news paper men, some of whom will en- deavor to push north from Sydey by water and thus intercept the explorer in advance of his arrival at the Cape Breton town.
 Bridgeman, calculates Peary win reach Sydney Saturday or Sunday. The Roosevelt must cover the $50 or 400 miles from Blanc Sablon to Sydney and probably will not average better than six or seven knots.
 ' MT. Bridgeman does not believe Commander Peary will stop at Halifax for the celebration planned by citi- gems there. but probably will go straight to New York, although he may go to his Eagle Island home for a short rest before facing a strenuous welcome in the metropolis.
 I'M. Bridgeman spoke confidently tonight of the possibility of an Amer ican Antarctic expedition, which he said Commander Peary had more or less definitely planned before his last start northward.
 '"The good ship Roosevelt" said Mir Briigeman. "is likely to play a promi- nent part in such an expedition. She Is practically new and Is not fitted up for commercial purposes. It Is her manifest destiny to continue in the work of exploration"

WHY is AN OFFICIAL LEAGUE BALL:

Not few persons who attend
baseball games and not few who
are well versed in the sport have fire.
quently expressed some mystification
as to why there should be an Official
National league baseball" and have
sought information on the subject
The general theory in regard to that
formidable phrase, official National
league baseball" is that it refers in
some manner to the fact that the
president of the National league has
looked the ball over and has found
that 1t meets all requirements. lin
a measure that is right, but it-doesn't
more than half cover the case.
Official baseball" however, does
not stop with official inspection. A
baseball to be official must comply
exactly with rigid standards of
weight and measurement 1t must
have certain amount of rubber and
a certain amount of other matter in
its composition. 1t must be covered
in certain way and there must not
be the slightest flaw in it when the
league president looks it over Any
imperfection, no matter how little it
may be, results in its being discard
ed.
The reason for its eXactitude is
not so much that the ball must be
well made and must look pretty. as
it is to establish all records, which
are the test of good ball playing,
from common basis. Everything
which pertains 10 batting and which
has to do with fielding is compiled
| with a certain weight of ball in play
day. after day, which never varies, ex-
cept now and then when the ball be-
| comes very wet during storm. Even
then, with the great perfection in
ball making at the present time. the
difference in added heaviness is so
slight that none except the pitcher
| who depends solely upon curves is
likely to notice it much.
Every time that a player makes
| basehit on Monday, and another
1layer makes a base hit on Tuesday,
and a third makes a basehit on We'd
nesday, we know that the conditions,
| so far as the ball was concerned,
we're uniform. That's what makes
an official BALI and that is why the
| phrase official National league base
| BALI is such a valuable property,
md why the game itself is so uni
| form
| Probably the reader, if he were a
! oall player about the beginning of

the "S0s," will remember with what
Jealous insistence clubs made
matches on the condition that a
Spalding official National league
ball should be used. The reason
was this: Now and then bounding
rock" was slipped into the game by
the home team. Any good old school
boy will remember what a difference
there was when the bounding rock"
was in the game and when it was not.
The bounding rock" was likely to
soar over the fence the first time
that it was batted
There is no danger of anything out
of the ordinary with the Official Ma
tional League Ball. It's weight
doesn't vary more than the fraction
of an ounce, and its dimensions are
equally as exact If Smith makes a
home run one day, and Jones makes
another the next, so far as the ball
is concerned, the spectators may
know that the conditions were prac-
tically the same on both days Hence,
the fine value of all our baseball rec
ords, which are made on an equit-
able standard. because the manufac-
ture OF baseballs has been reduced
to science.
One of the principal reasons for
lies in, the fact that there is such
absolute uniformity in the official
National league baseball"

The ai1or Has No
Axes to Grind

One great advantage of getting
clothes properly tailored to
measure is the fact that a
good tailor will study his client
and show him patterns that
blend with his individuality.
He has no made-up stock. 1t
makes no difference to him
whether he sells stripe or
plaid, a check or plain mater
ial. A coat that looks we'll on a
man six feet tall won't look
the same on a chap of five feet
four. A pattern that is becom-
ing to slender man will seem
ridiculous on a fat one. A good
tailor can add to your inches
by an arrangement of stripes
or decrease your girth simply
by using judgment. His
clothes not only fit a mans
figure. but his personality,
too. ---.--=~=====.

Mr. and Mrs Charlie Chalker, was
accidentally shot, on last Friday
morning, at the home of Mr. and

did not know the gun was loaded.
They were pupils of Mr. Eugene
Booths school, and Glenn had
spent the night at the home of
Willie Brown. They had gone in
q room whore the gun was, and in
handling it, in some way the load
was discharged, killing the little
boy instantly. The funeral was
conducted at the Methodist church
Saturday at IL o'clock, by Revs w
G Crawley and J A Spinks, after
which the remains were inferred
in the town cemetery. The many

AS there is q mistaken rumor

the innocent cause and wishes to

umns of the Journal 80 that one
and all may see where the mis-
take has come about. 1t is in re-
gard to "Nesbitt Chapel" Some
have the mistaken idea that the
Methodist people are trying to
change the name of Union Chap
ell. Now listen. At the last SER
vices that the Methodist people
held before conference at Gaines
vile, Brother Pierce compared the
little church to babe without a
name and requested to get up
name. First and last a dozen
or more names were suggested
yet nothing seemed to fit. AS
Col, Nesbitt had assured them of
building site to erect a church
building on sometime in the near
future, it seemed appropriate to
give their little church his name,
hence through gratitude to him
for the assurance of a permanent
home Methodist church at Union
Church and with no idea to sup.
plant the name of Union Chapel
but to create a name for the new
Methodist church. Like John the
Baptist, hamed before he was
born, just 80 Nesbitt Chapel is
named before it is built. | hope
