restriction was placed on the Indian

a result of an accident recently in
which one of the Cincy catchers was
hurt by one of Chiefs slant balls.
Johnson has such a big curve that the
backstops have a hard time holding
him, and for that reason they seldom,

that the ban placed on his curve ball
was what made him go bad for a

that he felt sure that he would go

with a cold, for quite a spell, which
accounted for the fact that he was not

SUPERVISION OFF . ON 4 YEAR SEARCH Arctic Explorer Will Go In to Mysterious North to To- cate Mystic Continent. TO BEAUFORT SEA" Is the Man Who Found the "BIond
 E>kimos"-Trip One of
 Interest.
o BEAUFORT SEA"

Victoria, B. c., May 19.-Vilhialmar Nlelansson, Arctic explorer and dis coVerer of the "Blond Eskimo or the lost tribe of white men of the Arctic. Will leave here early next month on a iolir-year trip into the mysterious North ill search of a mystic continent. Somewhere in the snowbound regions oI the Arctic circle it is believed there lies great continent of more than L. 100000 square miles and it is for this that Steiansson and his little party of scientists will search.
 In these days when scarcely no part Of the globe remains unexplored and uhcharlered 1t seems strange that ex- plorers and scientists should be ig- norant of such great stretch of land. Ii such land really exists. Their is- norance of it is explained, however. by the fact that practically all polar exploring of the past has been con- fined to hurried dashes to the region Of the Pole. Nearly all Arctic ey- petitions have had as their primary objects the discovery of the Pole. Now that Peary has attained that object ex- petitions of the future will devote more time to exploring the Arctic circle and to scientific research.
 The region which Stefansson will explore is now known as the Beau fort Sea. That is the way it appears upon maps of the Arctic. but it is not by any means certain that it is the sea, although many explorers, includ ing Dr. Nansen and Amundsen are in- clined to believe that it is the sea. Stefansson and Commander Peary. however. believe that it is a great continent. Peary asserts that he saw many signs of land in the vicinity of the Beaufort Sea- while on luis dashes to the Pole which indicated that they were parts of continent.
 Stefansson hopes to reach Nome, Alaska, the last telegraph station month after he sails from here. He expects to round Point Barrow the last week in July. His vessel is the karluk, an old whaler His party will consist of ten noted scientists and a crew of twelve men, all experienced in Arctic exploration.
 The expedition is being made at the expense of the Canadian government. It had been expected that Stefansson would make the trip for the National Geographical Society of Washington and the American Museum of Nation al History of New York, which insti- tuition offered him $45000. The Can adian government, however, offered him $75,000 and Stefansson accepted. The fact that he is Canadian by

birth, had much to do with his accept ing the Canadian offer, despite the at traction of the larger amount of mo- ney.
 ,Stefansson was born in Winnipeg, of Iceland parents. He is unmarried. which, in his opinion, should be the case with all Arctic explorers. He studied at Harvard and graduated One of his hobbies is the study of the peoples of the North of Europe and the study of Morse literature
 Stefansson has had considerable eX- perience in exploration in the vicin- ity of the supposed continent. Not long ago he spent three years among the Eskimos of the Arctic. His dis covery of the "Blond Eskimos'' made him famous the world over.
 During the course of an expedition into polar regions Stefansson ran across a remarkable tribe of Eskimos. They had never seen a white man be- fore. and Stefansson had never seen any Eskimos like them, many of them had blue eyes and reddish hair With many of the facial characteristics of the Scandavian.
 "I felt certain,' said Stefansson his return, that I had accidentally run across the descendants of the Norse- men, who years before Columbus dis covered America landed on the Green land coast and became lost.
 T measured their features and found that the males had features very similar to the kimo-Scandinav- ian halfbloods of Greenland
 The Eskimos received Stefansson as one of themselves. He says that he did not look unlike some of them. For several years he lived with them, took many photographs and studied them in their lives and habits.
 If Stefansson succeeds in discover ing the theoretical continent of the Arctic, he will doubtless bring back with him much scientific data of ex- treme value and scientists await the first reports of his expedition with great interest.

TEACHERS SALARRIES TOO LOW. Advance in Living Cost Has Really Decreased Their Income Says
 U. $. Bulletin.

Washington, May 19.-"Publlc school teachers of the United States do not receive enough salary to save money to carry adequate life insur- ance, or to proceed with further plo- fessional training" announces re- port of the United States Bureau of Education issued today.
 Most of the teachers of the country have, in effect, had their salaries re- duced since 1897, says the report.
 Despite an apparent increase in mo- ney received by them, the high cost of living has cut into their salaries just as definitely as if school board had sliced them.
 The report shows that wholesale prices in 1911 were Al per cent higher than in 1907; that retail prices had increase 50.2 per cent in the same period, while in June, 1912, retail food prices were 61.1 per cent higher than in 1896.

VIII Keen Cross Clean.

Now that the cross above st. Paul S
has been regilded it is not likely to be
allowed again to gather the accumula-
tions of London's smoky atmosphere.
Hydrants have been placed in the Ian
fern below the ball and cross, and by
means of high-pressure supply they
will be utilized periodically to clean
the golden cross. The hydants have
been introduced as a result of an eX-
pertinent last year, when it was found
that two powerful motor fire engines,
coupled together, were unable to throw
water from the ground level to the top
of the dome with sufficient force to be
of any use in case of fire. Dry mains
have now been laid to considerable
height, with outlets at different points,
and from these the firemen will work
should the necessity arise, the engines
being coupled to the other ends of the
mains.
