Bank Notes Hidden.

Of dollars hidden where no one knew
Bass Fultz of Allamakee county, has
passed to the great beyond. Rev. Mr..
Van Nice was appointed administrator
and it being surmised that the de-

tematic search. He broke open a small
chest that had been sucked away and
was astonished to find therein $500 in
gold, $3.50 in notes and $1,70o in bank
deposit certificates. This was thought
the sum total Of his worldly goods, but
later while the reverend gentleman was
going thru an old delapidated trunk
in the attic he lifted a heavy sack and
upon opening it counted out 1856. The
county has got busy and an assessment
his been levied against 1t which will
increase the exchequer about $500.

PROOFS WIPED OUT

Among other instructive phases
brought out by the full development
of the asperities between the House
Committee and Commander Peary's
scientific friends the following affirms
one thought that has occurred to
many, but which discretion would
leave the scientific to declare:
1t was further stated that any
scientist who knew his business could
remain in Washington and fix up as.
Economical observations and instru'
mental records such as a man might
make at the Pole. These could not be
told from the genuine, it was acknow
ledged.
After that the dispute over the reg
ularlty of records on one side and the
failure of proof for lack Of records on
the other is reduced to the exact value
of wasted wind. Cooks claim is re.
jected by Copenhagen because his rec
ords did not prove anything. Peary's
is accepted by the National Geograph'
ical Society because his records were
regular. Then one or more of the
Judges reveal the fact which, to lay
minds, seemed inherently possible
The Marion daily mirror. (Marion, Ohio) 1892-1912, 1910-03-09

that the records thus held UP as the
crucial test could have been produced
in complete regularity at Washington
or Copenhagen or anywhere else
The inevitable conclusion is that
everything heretofore presented az
proof" has been made worthless. We
are relegated to- the tests of corrobo.
rathion by other witnesses antecedent
character of the asserted explorers
and agreement in their reports as to
conditions at the Pole. Both are with
out competent corroborating witness
es, Cook by necessity and Peary bv
his own avowal, because he would not
allow other educated men OF his ex
pedition to share with him the al
legged glory" OF having been at the
charmed spot. In antecedent character
Peary stands somewhat better than
Cook, which, while creating the pre-
does not prove that Cook was not. In
agreement as to the conditions they
found there they are on such equal
ground as to justify presumption
that both reached the Pole or so near
| 1t that they knew what was there.
Finally, as to subsequent conduct.
Cook has disappeared and Peary has
played the part of a man with a
crouch. Which leaves the public in a
frame of mind to dismiss the whole
business with q profound belief that n
great deal more has been made of it
than II Is worth.-Pittsburg Dispatch
