RIVAL TEAMS CAN
SETTLE QUESTION
Amateur Mines of the City Will
Clash for Champion
ship Honors.
SUNDAY SERIES ARRANGED
SUNDAY AFTERNOON THE LOCAL
INDEPENDENT TEAM WILL
CLASH WITH ROYALS, A FAST
CINCINNATI OUTFIT.

To settle the rivalry among the sew.
eral fast amateur base ball teams of
the city, arrangements have been
made for championship series to be
played as curtain raisers for the ma
jor attractions at Athletic park. Be-
ginning Sunday the series will con-
tinue until each of the several teams
eligible to play have met the other
teams three times. The first game
will be between the Nationals and the
X. Y. q. nine.
The Waldorfs. and teams represent
ing the east end and Fairview will be
provided for in the local schedule.
The Waldorfs open the season at
Cambridge City Sunday afternoon,
crossing bats with the Little Giants.
The team has natty new uniforms and
are playing a fast article of base ball.
Games Called at 1:15.
The games at Athletic park will be
called at lis o'clock. which will al
low plenty of time for their finish be-
fore the big shows start. 1t is prob
able that the Amusement company,
operative OF the park. will hang up a
purse or trophy for the winner of the
city honors.
The weather alone will prevent a
fast game Sunday afternoon between
the ROYALS. who claim the indepen-
dent championship Of Cincinnati and
the remodeled Quakers. The local
management has six new men who
will make their debut before the 10
cal fans. OF these it is expected the
gaps in the local squad will be filled
and an aggregation capable of meet
ing with credit the best independents
will be developed.

This land has an irregular mountainous

From "a deg % min, extending to So

the coast is quite straight. Its upper sur
face is fat and mostly ice capped, rising
in steep cliffs to about twelve hundred
feet. The lower surface was so indis-
tinctly seen that we were unable to de-
tect glacial streams or ice walls. Both
lands were hopelessly buried under ac-
cumulated SHOWS.
We were eager to set foot on the new
ly discovered coast, for we believed then,
as proved by later experience, that these
were the earth's northernmost rocks, but

the aim of our main mission did not per-

Day after day We now pushed along liz

slow.
In one way or another we managed to
gain a fair march between storms curing

On April the barometer remained

weather became settled and clear. The
pack became q more permanent glitter

a dazzling light, while the sun at mid
night sank for but a few moments under

aroused the spirits. We had passed be-
yond the range of all life. For many
days we had not seen a suggestion OF
animated nature. There were no longer
footprints to indicate other life, no breath
spouts escaped from the frosted bosom Of
the sea.
Even the sea algae of the surface
waters were no longer detected. We were
all alone-all alone in a hfeless world.
We had come to this mental blank in
slow but progressive stages. As we sailed
from the barren areas of the fisher folk
along the outposts of civilization the CON-
pick luxury of the metropolis was lost
and the brain called for food.
Beyond, in the half savage wilderness
of Danish Greenland, there was the dawn
of new life of primitive delight Still
further along, in the Ultima Thule Of the
aborigines, the sun rose over the days Of
prehistoric joys. Advancing beyond the
haunts of man, we reached the MONDAY
splendor of thought in times before mans
creation.
Now, as we pushed beyond the habitat
of all creatures-ever onward-into the
sterile wastes, the sun sets. Beyond was
night and hopelessness. With eager eyes
we searched the dusky plains of frost, but
there was no speck Of life to grace the
purple run of death
In this mid-polar basin the ice does not
readily escape and disentangle. 1t IL
probably in motion at all time Of the
year, and in the readjustment Of the fields
following motion and expansion there are
open spaces of water, and these during
most months are quickly sheeted with
new ice.
Measuring the Ice.
In these troubled areas we were given
frequent opportunities TO measure ice
thickness, and from our observations We
have come to the conclusion that the ice
during one year does not freeze to a depth
of more than ten feet. But much of the
ice of the central pack reached a depth OF
from twenty TO twenty-five feet, and oc-
casionally we crossed fields fifty teet thick.
These invariably showed the signs OF
many years of surface upbuilding.
1t Is very dIrhcuIt to surnIse Tue amount
of submerged freezing after the first year.
but the very uniform thickness of the Ant
arctic sea ice leads to the suggestion that
a limit is reached in the second year,
when the ice, with its cover of snow, is 80
thick that very little is added afterward
from below.
Increase in size after that is probably
in the main the result Of addition to the
superstructure. Frequent falls of snow,
combined with the alternate melting and
freezing of summer and a process similar
to the upbuilding of glacial ice, are mainly
responsible for the growth in thickness.
The very heavy, undulating fields which
give character to the mid-polar ice and
escape along the east and west coasts OK
Greenland are therefore mostly aug
mented from the surface.

Indian experience that when I was
taken sick I resolved to try your Sag
wa. My condition was miserable, my
blood being in such an unhealthy con-
ditlon that my whole system was un-
dermined. l was without appetite, my
head was dull and heavy, my eyes
burned. my mouth was feverish, I
could hardly drag one foot after the
other. There was no refreshing in
sleep, for 1 woke in the morning as
weary as when l went to bed. A few
bottles of Kickapoo Indian SagXa put
me on my feet again and brought back
my appetite. Accept my grateful
