miles west, and it proved a good plan.
At SO degrees they built their win
ter home, consisting of a small wood
en- hut, and dug tunnels into the ice
and dug out rooms. When the sun
disappeared on April % they had a
good home, we'll heated and ventilat-
ed, and plenty of oil for light. The
sitting-room and dining-room was
In the wooden hut, and the baths,
reading-room and carpenter shop
were in the ice. The hut was soon
banked with snow and they were
quite comfortable. Most of the win
ter the thermometer ranged at so de-
grees below zero, but on August II 1t
fell to rs degrees below. The dogs
were kept In twelve tents, which sur
rounded the hut.
On August "a the sun returned, win
ter was over and preparations were
made for a start for the pole. On
September 5, with the thermometer at
"a degrees, a start was made, but
they did not get far until the Their
mometer dropped to 70 degrees. and
they were compelled to return. On
October 20 Captain Amundsen and
three sleds filled with provisions, each
sled being hauled by twenty dogs.
and three men, started east for King
Edwards Land, with provisions for
100 days. The remainder of the crew
remained on the ship.
Land Discovered.
At SO degrees south land was dis
covered. At SO degrees they came to
mountains $1,000 feet high. At this
point twenty-four of the brave dogs
had to be killed for food. November
26 was stormy, with snow drifting.
They could see high mountain due
east. When the storm ceased they
found themselves in a new country,
with great glaciers, which they were
descending at a rapid rate On De-
cember the glaciers, which We're full
of holes and bottomless as far as
could be seen, were passed. On De-
cember 6 they reached 10,7O0 feet
above sea level When at SO degrees
south latitude they stopped in honor
of Explorer Shackelton, as that was
the point he reached.
Then for eight days the weather
was fine, with sunshine all the time.
On December 10 SO degrees was
reached. That night they could hard
Iy sleep. They expected to reach the
pole the next day and every man was
thinking, Twill we be the first to
reach it?" Scott was in search Of the
pole and there was a Japanese expe-
dition out also.
Reach Pole at Last
On December IA an early start was
made and at o'clock on the after
noon of the next day they planted the
Norwegian colors at the South Pole
in the name of King Haaken.
On December II they started on the
return journey of $50 miles to their
ship, which was made in thirty nine
days. Lieutenant Nelson. who went
with the other two men to King
Edwards Land, found that Scott, the
English explorer, had described it ac-
curately. They then returned in the
Fran, which ship has the honor of
being farther north and farther south
than any other vessel.

for two years: sledges, clothing, sleep

set sail in the good ship Fran, from
Bunderfjord, Norway, on August 3.
1910. on their journey of $4,000 miles
to the South Pole. On January IA,
1911. they arrived at the Great Ross
ice barrier, 200 feet high, which was
considered unsurmountable. Before
leaving Norway he was told that he
could not cross the equator with a
dozen of his dogs alive. This did not
prove true, for while he started with
seventy-four dogs he arrived at the
Great Ross barrier with 116 dogs
Establish Food Depots.
On January 2S. fourteen days after
arrival, they had all the provisions
out of the vessel. Four days later he
reached 80 degrees south latitude;
March 4, 81 degrees, and April IL, 50
degrees, at which places he estab-
lished food depots, placing in each
1000 pounds of food. So that these
food stations might be easily found
on his return. he placed marks for a
distance of five miles east and five

ARIEL.

Ariel, June 21.-Talk about your
high cost of living. The price of
beef, pork and mutton is certainly
high but the price that John Myer
and Constable Swingle received for
six chickens knocks that an in the
shade. Saturday night fou fellows
who love chicken dinner foF Sunday
and knowing the high price of chick
en-, decided to help themselves; so
after going to Canaan to Jack Ben
than's and getting something in the
way Of nerve steadier, they came
back to Warden and called at the
chicken house of John Myer. Find
ing the door locked and gaining no
admittance they tore off the window
screen and captured six nice bid
dies When Mr. Myer went out to
feed his chicks Sunday morning he
saw the coop lock had been tamper-
ed with, the screen torn off and six
chicks gone, but where and by whom,
that was the question. Well, he
called up Constable Swingle and
sent him to answer it. Sunday was
a hot day, and so was Monday, but
you can bet that Swingle made it
hotter for the chicken thieves with
the result that three of the chicks
roasted in their own coop Monday
night, while the boys paid fifty dol
lars for the three they ate for Sun
day dinner. How is that for high
cost of living?

suited In Aoquittal.

Federal District Judge j. e. Safer

had been acquitted and then boldly
walked from the room. Because OF
this acQuittal he cannot be tried aga1n.

any professional skipper in England,
the proof Of which he repeatedly has
given while sailing against them in
various yachts he has owned, notably
with the nineteen meter Octavia in
1911, when he finished the season at
the top Of the class.

FARM HORSE STOLEN.

Charles D. Marble, of South Ok
ford, found one of his horses missing
from the pasture on the McNitt farm
Thursday morning, indications point
ing to it's being a clean case of horse
stealing. The animal was a bay
horse valued at over $100.
Later it was learned that a road
wagon, harness and laprobe had
been taken from the barn of F. j.
VESSEL at the Andrew Odds farm
about mile north of the McNitt
farm. Suspicious rest on certain
parties who may have driven the
horse into Pennsylvania.
This is the first case of horse
stealing in this town in a great many
years. The last one if we correctly
remember, was also in the vicinity
of South Oxford.
Clayton Wood and Archie Cascart
were arrested in Dneonta with an
outfit supposed to be the lost proper.

Fosters Weather Bulletin
Copyrighted 1919 BY W. 7. FOSTER

WASHINGTON, d. c., June 21.-
Last bulletin gave forecasts of dis
turbances to cross continent June 16
to 20 and % to &c, warm waves Is
to 19 and 81 to %, cool waves 18 to
22 and "a to %. About normal
weather is expected to prevail dur
ing the two weeks covered by these
two disturbances. No important
weather event is in sight for that
period and as a natural consequence
less than usual rain is expected, leav-
ing some sections with a shortage
in moisture.
Relative to the normal tempera-
lures a considerable fall was expec-
ted from June IL to 81, but this
would not mean an actual fall, be-
cause, as every one knows, the nor
NAL temperatures rise from about
Jan. Is to about July Is. Some
people who have no thinking ma
chimes misunderstood our chart tenn
perature forecasts for May. We are
compelled to use the straight, treble
line in the monthly charts to repre-
sent normal temperatures but every
thoughtful person well knows that
normal temperatures go up about
ten degrees a month from Jan. to
July and down as much from July
to Jan. When reading our monthly
charts those we'll known facts should
not be forgotten.
Next disturbance will reach Pacific
coast about June 27, cross Pacific
slope by close of 2Sth, great central
valleys 29th to July 1st, eastern Sec
tions July 2. Warm wave will cross
Pacific slope about June 27, great
central valleys %, eastern sections
July 1. Cool wave will cross Pacific
slope about June 80, great central
valleys July 2, eastern sections July
4th.
This disturbance covers time so
close to the great storm period that
it is difficult to determine it's char
acter. All weather features will be
radical, of greater than usual force,
but we have placed July as the cen
ter and most extreme part of this
great storm period. July 8, 4, and
will be days of greatest stress. But
where will these storms break? II
we have the lows placed correctly
one of them will be on the Atlantic
coast July and that storm will be
at it's greatest tensity on the Allan
tic coast and for several days it will
continue as a furious storm out on
the north Atlantic.
Next disturbance will reach Pa.
cific coast about July 8, cross Pacific
slope by close of 4th, great central
valleys 5th to 7th, eastern sections
Sth. Warm wave will cross Pacific
slope about July 3rd, great centra
valleys 5th, eastern sections 7th
Cool wave will cross Pacific slope
about July 9Th, great central val
leys Sth, eastern sections 10th.
This will be a furious storm fol
ten days-July to 13-from JUS
| before it strikes our western coast!
till it strikes the western coasts o.
Europe. Human lives, live stock
water craft and other property will
be destroyed in that great disturb
| ance.

What Made Him Skidl

A game of ball she went to see;
She deftly kept the score
And when the bleachers cheered with gdee
She helped the general roar.
She talked of strikes and liners hot
OF grounders and Of files.
She seemed to know a wondrous lot
That filed him with surprise.
But when, en- route for second base,
The star O'Muggles slid
She said, with terror in her face,
"Oh, Jack, what made him skidY'
And, spite of the exulting throng,
She worried and she fused
And thought the play had all gone wrong
Because his clothes got mussed.

WORK RESUMED ON THE MAJESTIC
Forms Being Built For The Concrete Work-Addton To Brooklyn Outftters Block-Comfort Station at Lake Street Grounds

The concrete work on the floors of the new building for James B. Shan non at the corner of Shetucket and Little Water streets has been com menced this week in the Davis and Kinney section with a frontage of 50 feet on Little Water street. The forms are being placed and with the pouring of concrete for one floor the superstructure will be corresponding ly raised in this lower section of the building, after which attention will be given to the remainder. The buff brick, the non-arrival of which has caused much of the delay, has at length reached here from Indiana and at the same time score of men who have been at work for MT. Shannon at Ocean Beach have finished there and have begun work here.
 MP. Shannons handsome cottage at Neptune Park Ocean Beach has been entirely finished and is now occupied by his family.
 Playground Buildings.
 At the Lake Street playgrounds, which are not adjacent to a school as are the others, two comfort stations are to be built and work on them was started on Monday morning. They will be ready for use in about two weeks time. F. D. Howard has the contract for the carpenter work, while
