The South Pole.

| America lays a just claim to the dis
covery of the North Pole. whether
Peary or Cook was the fortunate in
dividual; in any event it was an Am
| ercan citizen. AS has been said
many times during the last few
weeks this quest for the pole has been
carried on for centuries and has espec
tally aroused the sporting instincts of
| the Anglo Saxons. For every Ameri
can who has sought the North Pole
there has been an Englishman at his
heels, and while the English rejoice
with us in our good fortune, yet, their
| rejoicing is not without tinge Of re-
| that Of Great Britain.
There is but one other spot on earth
the discovery and exploration of which
can bring anything like equal glory to
the man who reaches it. That point
is the South Pole, that point on the
earth's surface where all roads lead
North. An Englishman, Lieut. Shack
Teton, holds the distinction of having
gone farthest south of any white
man. In his explorations Lieut..
Shackleton utilized the most modern
appliances; in fact he used appliances
almost exclusively to civilized COM
munities. For instance, the automo-
bile was of great assistance to him and
the disposition to use or at least to
attempt to use the best facilities for
transportation doubtless had much to
do with his great success. Shackleton
has successor in Captain Robert F.
Scott of London, for whom a subscrip-
ton list has been started, that he may
nave the necessary funds with which
to meet the expenses of an attempt
to plant the flag of Great Britain at
the South Pole. This subscription list
was headed by Sir Edgar Speyer with
contribution of $1,000. Sir Edgar has
been followed by many influential and
Well-to-do men of the Kingdom and
enough funds for the purpose are al
ready practically assured. Capt. Scott
told the prominent people who were
gathered at the dinner at which his
subscription was started that he should
sink personality in favor of the work
attained in his quest of the South
Pole. This is very patent reference
to both Cook and Peary, but we will
forgive him for that if he will succeed
in placing the flag of our friends op-

Stenography A Profession.

The art of recording the human
speech through the agency of steno-
graphic notes has been recognized as
profession by one of our leading uni
vcrsities through the creation of a
professorship and the assignment Of
wellknown expert stenographer and
teacher as a lecturer thereon. Stenog-
raphy is at present extensively used
takings. 1t was born in England and
there it has it's greatest use. We are
told that at the time of the Rcforma-
ton when the principles of Chris
tianty We're being taught to the peo-
pie from the pulpits there was a de
sire to preserve those discourses
through some system of writing. 1t is
believed that this really gave short
hand or stenography its strong foot
hold in England. There are, at the
present time, about 500 systems which
have been published and advertised as
others which are but applications OF
principles laid down in the more i'm
portant works.
The demand for skill in the art of
accurately recording the sounds of the
human voice through the agency of
signs has been satisfied up TO this
| time by schools organized for that pur-
| pose and it is distinct departure
| from this rule to appoint a lecturer

For Subsidies.

Alexander Del Mar, president of the
I.atin-American Chamber Of Commerce
has started a lot of truth concerning
shipping in a New York newspaper
and, incidentally, he has joined Presl-
dent Taft in the endorsement OF snip
subsidies. According to Mr.. Del Mar,
the United States has been entirely
ont of running for 40 years and has at
no time shown a disposition to regain
the place it occupied before the Civil
War as a maritime nation. He Is Ia
miliar with the situation and does not
hesitate to point out that the reason
why we are not getting more trade In
South America is because England,
Germany and France can receive an
order and deliver it in South America
before we can get started. The South
American wants plenty of time to pay
for that which he buys, but he wants
the commodity at once. He expects
that his promise to pay will be dis
counted and pays the bonus without
murlnur.
Mr.. Del Mar canvasses the situation
thoroughly and reaches the conclusion
that we will remain out OF the ocean
carrying trade just as long as the 9TH
er nations can supply maritime labor
cheaper than we can,-unless we see fit
to give subsidies. He recognizes the
objections and admits that they have
some force, but declares that there is
no other way open. All admit the ne
cessity of providing an extensive mer-
chant marine at once. The opinions
expressed by Mr.. Del Mar coincide with
the views of every man who is versed
in the history of the rise and fall OF
American shipping.

edge of shorthand would prove Of great
value to nearly all the students In
our universities and colleges. That
their judgment is good is proven by
the large number of students who 50
readily grasped the opportunity pre-
sented to them in the appointment Oh
a professor of shorthand. 1t lifts the
stenographer into the professional
ranks and adds new dignity to an in
ualuahle business assistant.

The Esk1.

Some one should say
A word or so
About the loWly
Eskimo:
The icy north's
Most northern peak
Was in his garden,
So to speak,
And it just needed
A short climb
For him to find
1t any time!
But did he go
And find the pole?
Nay, squatted by
A walrus hole
He let the splendid
Chance go by,
He never even
Made a try;
Hived on the apex
OF the earth
He knew how little
1t was worth,
He even helped
Peary and Cook
When they appeared
To take a look
For the old thing,
And now he sits
In sealskin boots
And pants and mlttS
And chewS a chunk
OF frozen whale,
And doesn't care
A Walrus tail
If the pole was
Found once, or twice;
He sits down on
His hunk of ice
And doZes all
The day in peace,
His face ashine
With blubber grease.
His wife wears the
Same sort of clothes
Across the frozen
Seas and foes;
| can not guess
To save my life
How he tells himself
From his wife.
