Whether anything will develop out

INCREASES TAX ROLLS.
Nasel Ordinance Turns Up Property
That Dodges Assessors.

Through the operation OF an ordin-
ance recently passed by the common
council at the request of AssessorJohn
{. Nagel, 1t is expected that a great
deal OF property that has been escaD-
ing taxation will get on the rolls.
This ordinance provides that no build
ing shall tie erected nor permit given
for moving a building until notice has
been given the board OF assessors.
Not only does this allow the as
SCISSORS to note all new buildings and
place them properly, but II gives them
opportunity to discover whether there
are any land contracts In connection
with the buildings. These contracts
have been very difficult property TO
locate and get on the rolls heretofore.
Il do not believe in the law which
.axes land contracts, since 1t is double
'axation," says Assessor Nagel, but
as long as that Is the law, we are
going to get track of as much property
AS we can"

contracts was the Joker" in the or.

WAS WITH PEARY
IN POLE SEARCH
Detroiter Who Made Trip in 1894
Says Commanders Story of Reach
ing Goal Must Be Accepted.

If you are itching for a scrap,
just look up Harold Astrup, chauffeur
for w. IL Hill, OF the w. IL. Hill Co.,
manufacturing chemists. No. 700 Cass-
ave-, and let him hear you express an
opinion that Commander Robert h.
Peary didn't find tn enorth pole. AS
trup will promptly take issue with you
on the proposition. and II you persist
In your opinion you may be called
upon To defend II with your fists. For,
with Astrup. Peary's word is all the
proof required.
If Peary says he was at the pole
he WAS there" declares Astrup with
great positiveness. IL lived with him
for Is months and | know he doesn't
lie."
Then Astrup will close up like a
clam, as he realizes he has said more
than he intended to say, and II is only
after much persuasion that he will
consent TO go into the details of those
Is months spent with Peary.
1t was on Pearys third expedition to
the arctic regions. nearly 16 years
ago, that Astrup came TO know the
commander. He was a member OF a
party of IA men that set out from
Norway In a staunch little craft built
at Laurvig. Astrup's home town ,espe-
cially for the expedition. lie was the
second engineer, and he Joined the
party against the wishes OF his family,
who had planned a great career for
him. That explains his reluctance TO
talk about the trip now, for he has
never returned to Norway and does
not want his people TO know where
he is.
IL can't tell you just how far we
got on that expedition" he says. Il
didn't pay any attention TO latitude
and longitude, but | know we got
somewhere above Baffin's Bay. We
made two sledge trips out from the
boat when she got stuck in the Ice
and I'll never forget the hardships and
privations we endured. Peary was
game though, and stuck 20 1t as long
as he could and be sure OF getting back
before our store of provisions ran out.
The trouble with that expedition was
that we started too late, and | think
Peary realized that before We were
out very long.
Naturally saw a great deal or
Peary during the trip and got to know
him very well. One thing about him
noticed In particular was that he
usedgreat care in making his observa-
tons. He wanted to be sure he was
right before putting anything down In
his record. From what saw OF Peary
on that trip | know that he would
not say he had reached the north pole
unless he had really done so.

turn. He was man named Petersen
