PRETTY EFFECTS ON LINGERIE
Most Charming Of All Are the Made
Flowers Of Chiffon, Though
Other Features Are Used.

The made flowers are so altogether
lovely when they are well used that
their vogue goes steadily on. The
latest use for them is in lingerie skirts
and slips Of sheer quality. Flowers
for these purposes are made Of chif.
fon. and very airy and dainty they
are for their purpose. The little flow.
ers are introduced in wreaths that are
single or intertwined, in garlands and
In little nosegays. The flowers for lin.
gerie are Of necessity tiny.
Another feature OF the new lingerie
is the use Of ribbon bows with fringed
ends.
Most trimmings are put on fiat for
underwear. though some persons cling
to the gathered lace ruffles, which In.
deed add little II any bulk.
There is growing liking for the
dainty Bavarian embroidery. with its
characteristic tiny hard padded de.
signs. All the daintiness OF such un.
derwear is usually left to the embroid.
cry without detracting from its sim.
plicity by the addition OF lace.

Two men at once set about the cree.

the land party continued to bring up
the building materials and provisions.
With our 1l5 dogs we had draft power

$50 feet. But our dogs know how TO

tie village. Our solidly built little
house stands safe and secure, sunk
four feet down In snow as hard as
rock and supported by backstays on
all sides. We have given 1t the name
of Framheim. Its longitude is about
l64 deg. west, It's latitude rs deg. 40
minutes south, SO that 1t is probably
the most southerly human habitation.
Round 1t are set up fifteen tents large
enough to accommodate sixteen men
each, for the use OF the dogs and as
storehouses for our provisions, coal,
wood. clothing, etc.
THE principal food depot is about
q kilometer from the station and con.
tains provisions sufficient for two
years. Since we came here We have
lived almost entirely on seal meat
and would not exchange seal steak
for any dish In the world. There are
great numbers OF seals here, and we
shall soon have preserved enough both
for ourselves and all our dogs for the
winter.

SKETCH OF CAPT. AmUNDsEN
Arctic Exploration Has Been the
Dream Of His Life Since Early
Manhood.

Road Amundsen. now about 40
years old, has proved himself one OF
the most competent explorers. Be.
sides reaching the south pole he is
the first and only man to accomplish
the long attempted feat OF taking a
ship from the Atlantic to the Pacific
by the northwest passage. He has
made at point within a short els.
tance OF the magnetic pole the only
set OF complete polar magnetic obser.
vations ever taken.
Amundsen was born at Sarpsbury.
Norway, and in his childhood moved
with his parents to Christiania. His
parents destined him for medicine
For one year he was a medica, stu.
dent. but at his mothers death. when
he was 10 years old, he gave up the
intended career and went to sea. For
a number OF years ne cruised in the
north as a whaler and sealer on Nor.
wegian vessels.
Amundsen had his first taste OF
exploration when In 1897 he went as
first officer with the Belgica on Ger.
lach's Belgian polar expedition. From
what he learned OF the work and ad.
venture OF exploring on this trip and
from the second Norwegian polar ey-
pedition OF 1898, he became filled with
arctic ambitions OF his own. He
formed the project not OF attaining the
geographic pole sought by SO many.
but OF trying the long.neglected north
west passage and approaching and
studying while on his way the little.
known magnetic pole.
II took Amundsen several years TO
prepare himself for his trip. For two
years he studied. first in Hamburg
under Nenmayer. authority on magnet
ism: In Berlin under Schmidt, and
finally at Wllhelmshafen under Bor.
gen In the meteorological station. His
mental preparation over. he spent two
years more In raising funds and outfit.
ting his expedition.
The Amundsen magnetic expedition
was perhaps the most modestly mp.
pointed that ever went for purposes OF
discovery into the arduous field OF the
arctic. Its cost was $4,000. large
part Of this Amundsen's own money.
Frlthjof Nansen. the Norwegian polar
explorer. close friend and faithful
helper OF Amundsen. helped raise an.
other large part. Amundsen was fin.
ally able TO put of from Christiania in
the little 47.ton sloop OF Gjoa on June
II. 1903.
Voyage Of Gjoa.
The Gjoa sailed around the north
end OF America, reaching the mouth
OF the Mackenzie river about Septem.
ber 3. 1905. II went by way OF Bar.
fins bay, Lancaster sound. Barrow
strait. Peel sound. James Ross strait
and Rae strait. Twice It wintered in
he ice For period OF many months
during this voyage Amundsen main.
tained an observatory on King VII.
liams land, at latitude CS degrees 30
longitude 30 degrees west,
within 80 miles, as he calculated. OF
the magnetic pole.
The northwest trip. fulfilling tn,
dream OF the early navigator. brought
Amundsen great renown. He then
planned an expedition to drift around
10 the North Polar sea. but changed
his mind after starting and went to
lind the Antarctic pole.

was pulled off at Boston last
night,
The Rev. Herbert H. Johnson
Ga minister again! James H.
Prendergast and Robert A. Wood
applied to Judge Hammond of
the supreme judicial court for an
Injunction to prevent the further
distribution of relief funds. g
Johnson, Prendergast and
Wood say they contributed to the
fund, and that they now are filled
with deep-seated suspicion that
some of the money has not been
spent as it Ought to have been
spent.
For instance. they have a sus-
picion that some of the money
went to pay the board and lodg-
ing of men brought here TO lead
the strike, EtSor, Giovanniti and
others, which is quite likely and
proper,
This horrible suspicion it was,
which caused them to apply to
Hammond to force Ettor, Yates
,and-other strike leaders to appear
and show cause why the injunc-
tion should not be issued.
Hammond was very obliging
to Johnson. Prendergast and
Wood. He blitheiy issued an or
der of notice in the case. and thus
successfully tied up the money
which the strikers were using to
keep their soup kitchens and
other relief methods going.
The strikers saw thew have no
