DR.. COOK To

AGAIN
Famous Wanderer Tells of Some
Foolish Questions Asked on
Return From North.

DR.. Cook, of Polar fame, is going
polaring agaln-in other words. he
has an Itching Of the feet and a
trembling OF the hands, real signs Of
wanderlust," according to a statement
at the Hotel AragOn Monday after
noon.
Yes, the fever has me again" said
the genial doctor. 1T always strikes
me about this time of the year, but
I'm in for It In real dead earnest this
time. and Just as soon as I get the
Polar matter cleaned up satisfactorily
am going on another expedition to
the North Polar regions. where there
remains much work to be done
viii make an expedition also to Mount
Everest, about which there is great
deal TO be learned"
Or. Cook said he would like to get
on the way even sooner, but could not
do so until the Polar controversy had
been settled as he owes this debt TO
his family and to his good name.
DIR. Cooks announcement Of his in
tention 10 lead further expeditions
into the Far North came in connec-
ton with an interview on Foolish
Questions l Have Been Asked the
World over" since the world famous
Polar controversy began.
Some Questions Asked Him.
In reply. the doctor, to begin with,
made the rather interesting statement
that the questions varied with the
times.
The questions fired at me now by
newspaper men and others are vastly
different from those which used to be
propounded a year or so ago" said
he. but there are some extremely
funny ones yet.

is a query which has greeted me a
thousand times.
Did you get very cold at the pole?

Can you freeze anything up at

Perhaps the most interesting ques-
TONERS, however" continued the doc
tor, ARE the women, who always want
to know how the Eskimo babies man
age to live and thrive in such cold
country"
In commenting particularly on the
interviewing methods" of the news
paper men Of the world, DR.. Cook said
the French reporter always wanted
to know How did you feel?' or How
did you like dog meat?' In other
words, something along emotional
lines. The German, he said, mani
tests interest in the material things,
while the Scandinavian reporter al
ways shows interest in the natural
scenery and the like.
And the Englishman?" queried the
reporter.
He" replied DR.. Cook. "he-has to

CHILLY, THE KID"

OF the many successes in dramatic
plays which have been produced the

scenes laid in the western country
have appeared to have appealed more
strongly to the fancy of theatre
goers. One of the best of these is
BILLY, The Kid" with its } scenes
placed in the great Southwest, near
the Mexican border, and it is said
to tell a story that appeals to all
classes of amusement lovers. The
plot is we'll conceived, there are
innumerable strong dramatic situa-
tions and there is plenty of comedy.
Some of the scenes are said to be
especially realistic and the produc-
ton on a very elaborate scale.

if the efforts of the assembly judiciary
committee to trace to Governor Sulzer
responsibility for the stories charging
that four assemblymen were bribed to

Garrison is known as the governors

month of May there were 9,455
deaths in Pennsylvania, while the

The greatest increase of deaths is

"a NO. T." THE FAMOUS ROVER.
Now Claimed the Fellow is Being
Sought for by "Uncle SAM"

Sought for by "Uncle SAM"
The Susquehanna (Pa.) Transcript
has the following regarding "a. No.
l." the famous tramp, who visited
this city on several occasions and has
acquaintances here among some of
the best people:
Tramp "a. No. l." known to fame
for his life work of sending home
boys who start on the road, has, it is
claimed, offended the law. 1t isn't
usual for "a. No. 1" to transgress
the law. He never did when he was
in Susquehanna, and he has been
here. often in his peregrinations of
100000 miles or more during his
unique career.
Perhaps he really didn't know that
he was offending the law when he
placed his "moniker" on the Hart
ford, Conn, post office building, but
Uncle Sam is strict about such things
and the federal authorities at Hart
ford are looking for him.
ga No. /" is a tramp, but he has
always kept within the law. He has
respect of police, railroad detectives,
town constables, and what William
Allen White calls "the authorities
everywhere"
Sitting in the shade of water
tanks along the steel ways or beside
bridges and fences, "a No. 1" has
perused literature. He has read and
he has written. He has written at
least one book a year, giving init
mate pictures of tramp life.
The proceeds of these books the
tramp puts to good use. Many boy
with the wanderlust strong within
him has been turned back from the
road by "a No. L. That is the life
work that "A No. fsshas chosen. He
watches for lads that leave home
and he tells them the real truth
about the road that seemed so fair
to them. And if they have no money
he shares his own with them and
sends them back to their mothers.
He has travelled half a million
miles at an expense of $7.61, it is
said. Not long ago he was in Sus-
quehanna and railroad men here
treated him well.
Everywhere he goes he puts his
cabalistic :'moniker." This is a GUS
tom with him, a sacred rite, but
when it comes to putting such
mark on Uncle Sans official build
ing it is an offense. So "a No. l"
has, committed the first crime that
he has been known to commit.
