lowed. Later Pritchard modified this
by explaining that Cooks story was
told to Whitney and that he, Pritchard,
was present in the room. Pritchard
said DR.. Cook had only two Eskimos
with him at the pole. The language
barrier made it impossible for Pritch-
ard to talk with these Eskimos.
John Murphy, the boatswain of the
Roosevelt, who was ashore with Pritch-
ard when DR.. Cook appeared at their
station, was astonished when informed
of Pritchard's knowledge. Murphy de-
clared that Cook talked with him on
several occasions about his trip on the
ice, but said nothing about having
reached the pole.
Cook limited his information to
Murphy to the fact that he had passed
the S7th degree. which was Peary's
fartherest point north in 1906, and that
the ice was rough up to "a.

According to Murphy, Cook arrived al

Eskimos, but no dogs. The sledge was

Pritchard and Whitney to have heard

cupied the same house at Annatok
during Cooks stay, Murphy replied
that a question to Pritchard had
brought his answer that DIR. Cooks
story of his dash to the pole was
recited to Whitney and the cabin boy
on a day he, Murphy, was absent at
Etah. This statement was referred
to Prftchard, who identified the date
he heard the Cook statement as the
day Murphy was absent at Etah.
If Commander Peary gets into
Sidney tonight he will be greeted by
glorious weather. The north pole
flag which Peary had made at Battle
Harbor will be displayed for the first
time on the Roosevelt entering this

flag with a broad white band laid on
from the union corner

words North pole" in black letters.

PEARY ON THE WAY, TOO.
Roosevelt Will Be Welcomed at Sid
ney Tomorrow.

Sidney, n. S., Sept. 20.-The tug
Douglas H. Thomas, which left Bat
tie Harbor Saturday morning in COM
pany with the Peary steamer Roose-
Velt, arrived here at daylight this
mroning and reported the Roosevelt
travelling south under steam and sail
at speed approximating 10 knots an
hour. She should be off Sidney at 5
or o'clock this evening The build
ings of the town, together with the
shipping in the harbor, were today
gay with flags. According to the
statement made last Saturday at Bat
tie Harbor by William Pr1tchard, cab
in boy and assistant cook on the
Roosevelt, two persons knew as long
ago as last April that DR.. Frederick
A. Cook claimed he had reached the
pole April 21, 1908. These persons
are Harry Whitney. a wealthy sports
man of New Haven, Conn.,, who is at
present on the Greenland coast on
board the steamer Jeanie, and Pritch-
ard himself. They saw Cook at An
natok, Greenland, after his return
from the north.
Whitney's One Reference.
The only reference which whitney is
known to have made on his brief 81
Journ on board the Roosevelt, was
casual remark to a member of the
Peary party that he believed Dr. Cook
had reached the pole. Pritchard kept
the news even more faithfully and his
statement of Saturday was the first
intimation that he had any informa-
iton on the subject. Pritchard ex-
planned that he kept the news to him
self because he did not wish to be
dragged into the trouble. He was
asked how he knew. before he came
south on the Roosevelt, that there was
going to be a controversy, and de-
clared that DR.. Cook had cautioned
him not to speak to anyone until he
cached civilization. Pritchard's reti-
cence with this news in his possession
was surprise to everybody on board
the Roosevelt.
In the beginning Pritchard told the
correspondent that Cook had talked
freely to him at Annatok with regard
TO his dash over the ice, indicating to
Kim on map the route he had fol-

APPLE INDUSTRY
A GROWING ONE
ID. N. GELLATLY PREDICTS WE
NATCHEE GREAT SHIPPER IN
BY SPOKANE CHRONICLE.

''Wfthin the next ten years tn,
fruit lands of the Wenatchee valley
will be shipping annually $4,000
carloads of apples" This statement
was made few days ago by D. N
Gellatly, secretary of the Commercial
club Of Wenatchee, who spent a few
days here as the guest of the Spo
kane chamber of commerce
''In the Wenatchee valley today
Their are $4,000 acres of first class
fruit lands which have been planted
with apple trees" said Mr.. Gellatly
to Chronicle reporter. "Of these
lands, 5000 acres are now in bear
ing orchards; $4,000 acres have
been set to trees which are now from
one to two years old. All of the Is,
600 acres will be in bearing orchard
within ten years.
''There were shipped last year
from the Wenatcheee orchard lands
LOO carloads of fruit, besides an
enormous amount of vegetables.
Shipments of $4,000 carloads of ap-
Piles will undoubtedly be made from
the Wenatchee valley every year be-
ginning not later than ten years from
this date"
Has Enviable Record.
Mr.. Gellatly has made an envi-
able record in his county during the
past year. 1t was mainly through
his efforts that a combination was
formed of all the commercial clubs
of Okanogan, Grant, Douglas and
Chelan counties. The commercial
bodies in all the towns and cities of
these counties formed an alliance,
under the leadership of Mr.. Gellatly,
with the name of the North Central
Washington Development league.
Mr.. Gellatly states that the league
proposes to work together for the
benefit of the territory in which the
clubs are located. Speaking of the
plans Of the Wenatchee Commercial
club, he said this club proposes to
work assiduously for the surround
ing country along the same lines
pursued by the Spokane chamber of
commerce, which has for years
boosted for all the towns and cities
of the Inland Empire.

fhe Way to Make the Summer Girls
Neck Beautiful.

The most beautiful throat IN Inc
world has, no charm unless the tex
ture of the skin be fine and the color
q creamy white. AS the average neck
ia marred by collar rings and yeiio"e9
from the. wearing of tight n ana
dried ribbons, one ia forced TO aGmlt
that beautiful Threats are few and lar
between.
The girl who realizes the inheritance
of securing q swanlike neck will begin
her beauty crusade by f~orswearlng
very high collars. Then she must
learn to wash her throat, for few
women know how to do it properly.
What every girl should do is 10 give
the throat q diligent %scrubbing, night
and morning, using abundance or
very hot water and mild soap. This
bath can be made de%liciously fragrant
nv putting inptwelve drops of benZoln:
While rubbing heaps OF fragrant
lather into the pores, the benzoln Will
be doing it's best to bleach the neck to
lily witness. When the throat Is p1nk
and glowing from this vigorous bath,
rinse it in several lukewarm waters.
Now comes an important part OF the
morning beauty-batb. Dash handfuls
of cold water over neck and chest.
The girl who loves deco]lete frocks
and should make this treatment a
habit, as the cold water not only
beauties the neck, but saves her many
q cold and troublesome core throes:
Cold water does not follow the night
bath as massage takes its place ana
proves itself very valuable, exercising
the muscles and stimulating the skin
in its continual effort to throw of the
tiny flakes ofdead cuticle. Manipulate
