G. A. Bell. assistant chief Of the di-

to Washington after four months in
Europe and the United Kingdom. where
he was investigating the live stock
situation for the department. Mr.. Bell
covered all the important live stock
districts In England, Ireland and Scot
land, BELGIUM, France and Holland.
The general live stock situation in the
countries visited, Mr.. Bell said. was

continental breeding situation, as meth
DDS there have crystallized through gen.
erations and the countries are not so
prone to experiment and try new ideas
as America.

TIE TUBERCULOSIS SPECIFIC.

We trust that the alleged discovery
of a tuberculosis serum, reported as
having been made by Dr. Friedman of
Berlin, Germany, is in fact commen-
surate with the sensational publications
which are being made about il. 1t
has been stated that DR.. Friedman
demands a million dollars for the Sc
cret of his serum. He claims that it
is an absolute specific for tuberculosis,
proved so in his practice, and that this
practice has now proceeded so far as
TO place the remedy beyond doubt. It
is reported that DR.. Friedman has been
offered his million dollars, provided ne
would effect certain results 1t is
stated also that the German govern
ment has offered him a tentative op.
portunity to prove publicly and OFF.

sonably, DR.. friedman insists that the
administering of his serum shall be by
himself and under his immediate di.
rection, and not under the supervision
Of some other doctor. We consider that

SCOTS GREAT DISASTER.

| That is indeed sorrowful news which
comes from the Scott party which
reached the South Pole. It appears that
| the flying trip towards the pole was
made by five persons, including Cap
tain Scott himself. Lieutenant II. B.
Bowers. DR.. Z, \ Wilson, Captain =.
G, Oates, and Edgar Evans. These af'
ter making the successful journey TO
the pole. and finding there the records
that Roald Amundsen left, returned,
facing unusual hardships and extraor,
dinarily severe weather, aud reached
within eleven miles of tho depot
where they would have been safe and
had ample supplies. 1t was indeed i
grievous ending to an excessively toll
some yet brilliantly successful journey.
At no time did Captain SCOTT make
his expedition in any way O. race, or
have 1t in the least take on the feature
Of a race, with Amundsen. On tho con-
trary, everything was done by Captain
Scott with deliberation, with careful
forethought. and with 4 view only 10
the success and safety Of his trip. Like
wise commander, he kept in Wow the
safety of his men, the prudence Of his
plans, and the working out of the prob
lens involved in his perilous journey.
He did everything possible to adapt
means TO ends in the fttcst manner so
as to achieve the desired results with
the minimum of suffering and the pre-
veution of the loss Of life.
He was unfortunate IL many ways.
The route which he took brought him
over extremely difficult ground, and the
clements were furlously against him
from the start; and yet his success was
phenomenal IN that he reached tho polo,
and was able to bring back with him
the full records OF his journey and the
story OF success, even though he died
almost within reach Of safety and com
fort. That his successful effort to reach
the South Pole confirmed fully Captain
Amundsen's report Of his own achieve
ment must be a qualification to the
world.
But what a pitiful ending to brill
liantly and triumphantly conducted
enterprise it wast For this little party
Of FIVE to make their trip so successful
and get back within so short 4 dis
tance Of what would have been home
and life to them, was splendid
achievement. It is tragedy Of the
Antarctic which must be ranked with
other tragedies, especially with that Of
Sir John Franklin and his party in his
Arctic explorations, although on a small
er scale than Frauklin's s so far as loss
Of life is concerned,
It Is altogether sorrowful to read such
tale, but on the other hand it is
grand and inspiring to read record OF
such heroic endeavor, such manly for
titude. and such forgctfulness Of self in
thought for the common welfare OF the
party as whole, and for the success of
the enterprise. Tt is heroic chapter
indeed, worthy to 90 with the best tales
of heroism that have been told.
