achievemtn was sent by a Greenland
Official on board the steamer and reads
as follows;
We have on board the American
traveller, DR.. Cook. who reached the
North Pole April 21, 1908. DR., Cook

schooner John R. Bradley. with Cap.
tain Moses Bradley as sailing master
The party was reinforced with
sledges. dogs and Arctic equipment at
Etah, Greenland, whence tbov sailed
March 3, 1908. DR., Cooks plan was
TO set aside all tradition by making
the dash TO the pole during the winter
months. when the elements are con-
sidered least advantageous for an ad-
vance northward- Nothing had been
heard from Dr.. Cook the last eighteen
months.

miles north Of Etah. This would
place him about 1000 miles from the
pole. He first made his way west
ward out of the cache and across TO

lates that he reached this position In
the spring of 1908. The last news re-

He then reported that his health
was excellent. that he had picked up
a large party of Esquimaux of SUI
perior intelligence and that his pros.
poets for success were bright. He in.
tended to push on 10 the northern
point of Greenland and from there
start his dash to the pole In the win
ter OF 1903. He expected 10 return TO
his quarters at Annatoak not later
than next month.
Dr. Cook was born at Calicoon De-
pot. Sullivan county, New York, in

1902. to Miss Mary Hunt. His wife has
shared belief of the Arctic club that
her husband has achieved the goal OF

Father Phelan of st. Louis, two days

apostolic delegate to the United
States, Archbishop Diomede Falconio
He expressed his appreciation of the
doctrine yesterday few hours after
he arrived in Chicago from Washing
ton
Indeed, why not" he inquired.
Women in some states are given a
vote on a property qualification. Sure

property. 1t would thus be reasonable
TO give votes to married persons on
the basis of the number of their chill
