POLE CREW IS LOYAL
Amundsen'S Men Are Now Ready
for Arctic Trip.
Many Are on Way to Norway, Where
They Will Await Arrival Of Noted
Explorer-ls Highly Praised
as a Leader.

London.-FOurteen of the officers
and crew of Captain Amundsen's ship
Fran passed through London recently
on their way to Norway, where most
of them intend to remain until they
sign on to accompany the discoverer
of the south pole on his projected ex.
petition to the north pole, where
Peary first flew the Stars and Stripes.
Amundsen's men are modest fellows.
Some difficulty was found in getting
any of them to talk for publication,
but eventually it was arranged that
one should speak for the rest, and to a
reporter this one said:
THE IA of us who have come into
the Thames include all the south
pole shore party except Captain
Amundsen, who is now busy in
Buenos Aires writing the book of his
experiences, and will not come to Eu-
rope until later. Toward the close of
the year he proposes to rejoin the
Fran at Buenos Aires and make an
attempt via Cape Horn and Frisco to
reach the north pole. Seven or eight
of us intend to rejoin him on that ex-
petition. There will only be IA in
the new trip, instead OF the 81 who
sailed south, but in attempting the
north pole there is no need to furnish
landing party
Even apart from the achievement
of reaching the south pole, our voyage
has been a great success, and in the
conditions under which we made 1t
there was no risk. None Of us have
at any time had any feeling of having
been in trouble.
There have been toll and dangers,
but the surmounting of these has been
question of organization, and that
was the work of Captain Amundsen.
He is splendid leader, supreme in
organization, and the essential in
arctic or antarctic travel is to think
out the difficulties before they arise.
When that is thoroughly done every
thing goes smoothly and the difficult
ties resolve themselves into test Of
endurance"

Tramp Cared for by Clergyman for
Three Years Robs His Benefac-
tor-Is Now in Jail.

Detroit.-Rev. C. L. Arnold, head OF
the Arnold home, charitable institu-
ton, is seeking the Imprisonment for
a long term of Claude Camerson. The

finally assault when Camerson tried
to shoot them.

ago." said Mr.. Arnold, when he came
to the Arnold home looking like a

bath, afterward getting him a job.
He stayed at the home and shortly

railroad, and for awhile he behaved
himself. After three months, how
ever, he broke into my house again
and stole $45.
About three months afterward he
sat in the alley beside my house one
night while people were passing along
the nearby avenue, and removed q

quite likely that the eastern teachers
will form an Independent association,

for some time, or at least have their
own association and affiliate only in d

Grace C. Strachan, city superintend'

teresting and spirited one, almost sur.
