journal entries made by Peary were done in the igloos after the days work. He declared that the tempera- ture in which he wrote was never above zero. All the entries were in pencil. As evidencing the intense. cold in the polar air Peary read extracts from his diary. On April 9th, 1909, the day before we reached the pole, when the Esquimaux complained or cold noses, he wrote: This is the first time I've ever known them to do SOL Again on March 5, 1909. the en- grees below zero" and that the bran dy froze in the igloos.
 ''Well,' said Representative Butler. (Rep., Pennsylvania), i've have these proofs and your word that you reach ed the role. Was it absolutely neces- sary for you to have been at the pole to have I.epared these observations?"
 "It is question over which there has been some discussion," replied Peary. "I believe it is a fact that observations have never yet been made which will prove up, that were not made on the spot from which they purport to have been made" without being at the pole? Is there any way to detect them if they were not made at that placer"
 Some experts say that they can he 'faked,'" the explorer replied af- ter some hesitation. 2.
 "1s it possible thing to do?" de- nanded Representative Roberts, (Rep. Massachusetts,. "Well,s suppose so if man were an expert" replied Eeary. = Ibid YOU make entries in your di-

 The fleet guardian of second garden for the s.. Louis team did not have any trouble making Chairman Daniel E. Walker and his colleagues on the committee understand his complaint. He stated that some time last sum- mer while he was away chasing pen- nants the city changed the grade in Waterman street and failed to get a notice to him. When he returned. he claimed, his back yard had been converted into a duck pond by reason of the change in the grade. and that if he attempts to fill in his yard to meet the grade of the street he will have to raise the house or change the loca ion of the windows, for the sills of the basement windows are lower than the sidewalks. fi

MUCH BORROWING ON REAL ESTATE
 IN PAST YEAR
Bridgeport Has Pledged Realty to Tune of $7,014, 109 and Almost Holds
 Record for Cities
Bridgeport Leads New Hav- en and Hartford in Con- struction of Two Family Houses-Falls Behind in Factory Construction.

In Bridgeport. during 1910. $7,014, ,109 was invested in real es.ate mortgages. outstrfpping by almost $3.000,0O0 the sums so loaned in any earlier year. In the 33 principal cities and towns of the State s41,930,O72 was loaned on realty. which was also a record.
 Hartford leads. with loans of $7,O64,- O9O; New Haven. s6,S33, ,8O3, and Water bury. $3,S60,9 962.
 This business indicates much build ing, .fle growing favor of real estate as an investment and perhaps the unusual amount of borrowing.
 The permits granted in New Haven, Bridgeport. Hartford and Waterbury fall off 100 as compared with 1909. but there is an increase in the cost of buildings from s13.640.704 in 1909 to s13.779.S11 in 1910. and these figures are ahead of previous years.
 Hartford leads with 1053 permits and $4541.979 in new structures. with New Haven second, having in number 1,035 and in cost. $4.386,064. Bridge port issued more permits than Water bury-907 as compared with 74S but the latter ely led in cost of buildings, $2,576,900 against $2,274,S6S. .L
 There has been larger amount of fac ory building in Hartford. While in Bridgeport. which has generally led, there is marked dicrease. In dwell ings, New Haven leads in the number of one-family houses. with; total of 129, costing $571280; Hartford follows with 89. costing $476,350. and Bridge port is third with 85. costing $275, ,175. Bridgeport. however. leads in the num- Der of rwo-family houses, with 1S0, costing $62S,200; Hartford. 133. costing sS09, 100. and New Haven. 152. costing $698, ,OS5

 all his prestige as a member of the ways and means committee in Con- gress, with all his political patronage, that must be of great benefit to him in political fights. he came within an ace of being defeated in the last elec- tion by W lson of Bridgeport.
 with Judson as United States Sen- ator the Hill machine would not amount to near as much in the Fourth district as it does today. Bulke1ey and the friends of Stiles Judson req lize that if Judson became United States Senator the political combina- ton that has Bulkeley and Brande- tically as powerful in this state as it is today. With Mclean as United States Senator the political machine that would bring about his election to that office would begin operations at once to undermine the political for tunes of Senator Brandegee. It will only be a short time before the term of Senator Brandegee will come to an end in the upper House in Congress and then will come the question of his successor. Naturally Brandegee will want to be returned to the Senate. He is young yet and his Senatorial duties in Wash 'ngton are evidently very pleasing to him.
 with Mclean as United States Sen
 
 would make political alliances in this State looking to the overthrow of Senator Brandegee and looking to the election of Congressman Hill to suc- ceed Brandegee. No one can fore cast definitely or accurately who is likely to be named in opposition to Brandegee by the Mclean faction. The man picked out at this time by the forecasters is Congressman Hill who today is one of the warmest sup porters of Mclean in the fight against Bulkeley.
 "Men like Bulkeley and Branudegee and that faction in the Republican party are keen to the fact that with Mclean as United States Senator and Hill as his colleague in the Senate there would be little show for years to come in a political way for the Re- publican element in Connecticut that is now headed by the Bulkeley and Brandegee combine.
 "Now I don't want to be understood that this program as I have outlined it will be carried out. That is the way they are talking today. You know that it is generally understood that Stiles Judson is to be the Repub- lican leader in the Senate. You know also that he is one of the most pro- nounced packers of Senator Bulkeley and that he will leave no stone un- turned to bring about BulkeIey's election. It is a welI-known fact that Bulkeley has great admiration for Judson and I myself think that Jud- son would be just the man that Bulke- ley would hit upon to carry through this program"

 Washington. Jan. 7.-Before the today. Captain Robert E. Peary pre- sented his proofs of the discovery of the North Pole to the sub-commit- tee. which is determining whether the captain shall be rewarded with some sort of recognition by Congress, the Arctic explorer told of his dash to end of the earth.
 Peary took with him all of the tee of the National Geographic Socie- ty based its opinion sustaining his contention that he had actually reach ed the pole. They were few wrinkled bits of paper. handled like precious parchments by the com mander and several bulky memor- andum books.
 The notebooks were full of cramp- ed handwriting and were the Cap tain's Log"
 At the suggestion of the commit tee Captain Peary dwelt especially on his trip to the earth's apex from the time he left Captain Bartlett at a point 133 miles from the pole.
 The party then, he said. consisted of four men, five sledges and 40 dogs. On the first march they covered 20 miles: on the second, 20; the third, 25; the fourth 25 and on the fifth, 30.
 At the end of the last trip,''' said Captain Perry, II judged I was with fin four or five miles of the pole. We had reached this point in the fore noon. as I had hoped to do, as could then reach the pole and make a noon sight of the sun. Observa- tfons made a little further on, show ed we were at S9 degrees, 57 minutes about three miles from the pole. Then we pushed on and on April 6, were at the pole.
 We stayed in the vicinity of the pole for thirty hours, starting on the return trip at about o'clock one April morning. After going five miles on the return trip I made soundings through the ice. I had a line 1.5O0 fathoms long but could not reach bottom with that and in drawing up our sounding apparatus the line broke and we lost it.
 ..On the return trip we covered the mileage of two trips on one, for two successive days. We had a, northerly gale at our back and that helped.

THE AUTOMO-
 BILE WORLD

Never let the engine run hot or in need of sufficient supply of lubrl- eating oil if the best work is desired.
 The temperature has a very marked effect on the rapidity with which gas olene vaporizes, and in cold weather it is necessary to supply heat to the carburetor. This may be accomplish ed by jacketing the carburetor, or by warming it either by the circulating water or from the gases of the. ex- haust pipe.
 With the advent of wet and slushy weather city .pavements assume the the most favorable conditions for that bugbear of all motorists-side-slip or skidding. When your car starts to skid there are two things to re mem Der to do-decrease your speed, put do not apply the brakes-turn the car in the direction you are skidding. Always keep a little driving power on the rear wheels. A car travels in the line of least resistance-the fact that a car side-slips shows that there is more resistance to a forward than a sidewise movement, which us- ually occurs when rounding corners. It is easy to see that by applying the brakes and locking the rear wheels the only motion possible is sidewise motion, while a slight drive on the wheels tends to overcome this.
 A tire made of paper mache. IS re- ported to have been perfected by French mechanic to an extent sufH- cient to be serviceable and resilient. Their cost is much less than rubber.
 A misplaced float in the carburetor is the cause of the loss of much gas- olene in many an automobile It IS also easier to put carbureter out or adjustment than it is to readjust it.
 Use of tire chains in Fairmount Park, Philadelphia, has been allowed since the snowfall last week. The prohibition of chains in the park is one of the strictest clauses in the reg ulations of the Park Conmi ssioners. and the rule is not suspended except in case of a heavy snowfall or when
