NEW RACE IS FOUND IN VICTORIA LAND NEVER SAW WHITES OR INDIANS
 BEFORE. Interesting Questions Reised as to
 their forbears.

New York, Aug. 25-A race of people who never before beheld a white man or an Indian was discov- cred in the Arctic region of British Columbia by Vilhjmar Stefanssen, the leader of the American museums sci entific expedition which left here in April 1908 according to a letter re- ceived from him in Brooklyn today. In the letter which is dated Mouth of Dease river, October IS, 1910" Ste fansson says:
 We discovered people who never before saw a white man or an Indian. though they had heard both. They did not know that l was not an Es- kimo, so little are they informed as to what a white man is like. have discovered that they are Eski- mo in speech and habits and scan dinavians in appearance. This find, I think is the beginning of the solu- ton of one of two problems, what became of some of Sir John Frank lin's men? What became of 5000 Scandinavians who disappeared from Greenland in the fifteenth century? or, if either these questions is not to be answered, then we are intro duced to a new question of scientific research-why do some people in Victoria land differ markedly from the rest of their race? Why are they SO European in type? We have dis covered the non-eXistence of stream which the maps make the size oi the Hudson river. When the river Laronciere disappears from the map I shall feel that I have done some house cleaning We found a certain cape to be an island, seen by Dr Rae and further odd things, we have dis covered in the interest of science.
 Stefanssen's main purpose in the expiditiOn was to study the unknown people of Victoria land.

New York. Aug 25.-Sailing over New York ferryboats, and ocean lin CTS, Harry N. Atwood, the Boston avi- ator. arrived at New York in his aero plane today. the first man to travel as far as from St. Louis to New York by way of Chicago in a heavier-than-air machine.
 His next attempt, he said tonight, would be a crOss-continent journey, starting from Los Angeles or San Fran cisco about october l. He has not de- termined the exact date, he said.
 Atwood landed at Governors Island after flying down the Hudson river from Nyack, through a fog which made him only dimly visible 10 the million odd eyes watching him. He not only broke the worlds record, covering 1265 miles in air line, or perhaps hundred more with detours, but he flew all the way in the same biplane, and suf- fered no important mishaps.
 Atwood covered the distance in the actual flying time of 2S hours and 31 minutes. Atwoods coming was un- expected at Governors island, as it had been heralded that he would land at Sheepshead bay, where thousands lined vantage points gazing skyward
 The new champion left Nyack at 1:53 D m. and after freeing his machine from a hollow surrounded by trees, he followed the Hudson at a low al- titude for the entire distance. At Yonkers his hat blew off. Thousands clustered around Grants tomb. the via duct and along Riverside drive, and roared their enthusiasm when the avi- ator passed.
 As he approached Recreation pier on Fifth street, where another crowd had gathered he circled from one side of the river to the other and then pro ceeded down stream to Governors is land.
 He said he would go home to Bos- ton tomorrow Packed away in the grip which the aviator carried. in the aero plane, are a score or more oS letters addressed to girls in Boston, from pret- tv nearly nearly every place I stop ped" said Atwood. Some fellow ask ed me to carry a letter to his girl up in Boston town. I am going to take them all to Boston with me and mail them there"
 Atwood said later tonight he might retire from aviation and that his pro- jected coast to coast trip might never be made
 Tt is too risky" he said ."It is prac- tically inevitable that sooner or later the aviator. no matter how careful he may be, will end his flights with a sudden downward plunge to destruc- ton"
 Of the reward for the flight he said: "The only sum actually coming to me is the s100OO prize already paid, which was offered by Victor J. Evans, Wash ington. Out of this I must pay a for felt of s4OOO to my financial packers for failure to stop at all the twenty cities scheduled enrOute.
 He announced that he would fly from Governors island to Sheepshead Bay at 3 o'clock tomorrow

Nearly every day an inquiry is re-

about the efficiency Of the motor fire
apparatus which this city possesses
Tulsa was one Of the first cities In the
world to install the modern fire ap-
paratus, consequently other cities
which are contemplating the install
latlon Of motor equipment write the
officials here.
The latest convert TO the system is
Corpus Christi. Tex Inquiry was
made as TO the efficiency of Tulsa's S
motor trucks. Mayor Martins reply
was most emphatic in praisng the
motor truck. With seventy horse
power Webb truck at the central sta
tlon, almost any fire can be success
fully coped with. The gasoline motor
furnishes traction power driving the
car TO the fire at a speed of a mile a
minute, ana when the blaze is reach
cd, by the working of a lever the pow
,r of the motor can be used to oper-
ate a set Of pumps which are capable
Of raising water to the top Of the high

Tulsa is looked to for advice from
