Good Progress Made.

The surfaces on the outward Journey
were exceptionally good. and the mules
made good progress without sinking
deeply. Deep snow was encountered
on the return, and the going was much
heavier. The chief difficulty .in con-
nectiOn with the mules was that they
would eat anything except their ra-
tlons. The food of some consisted of
rope yarn. tea leaves, mems and dog IS
biscuits and tobacco ashes. The weights
hauled by the mules were much heavier
than by the ponies, the highest weight
at one time being 760 pounds
The gear supplied by the Indian gov
ernment showed great forethOught, and
only had to be altered in very slight
ways. The snow goggles were espe-
cially useful and great comfort to
the animals. The harness was breast

Two Mules Are Shot.
Two mules were shot on the Barrier
and five returned after $50 miles Of
hard pulling in temperatures falling to
twenty-nine below zero There were
two dog teams of eleven dogs each.
Eighteen of the twenty-five which
brought down in the first year all the
stores were brought safely back to the
depot at Hut Point.
The care of the mules devolved upon
Lashley. His constant attention kept
them in god order A detailed record
was kept by him, showing the perform
ance of each mule during the winter
and also during the travelling season
This record will be sent to the supply
transport department of the Indian
government, who trained the mules for
the expedition.
The health of the search party
throughout was excellent.

Thousands Turned Away.

Hours before noon, the time set for
the singing OF the first hymn Rock of
Ages the police began regretfully to
turn away thousands who could not even
get within view of the doors of the
cathedral.
The service was a simple but solemn
march from SAUL in which the great
cathedral organ was accompanied by
military band. The service concluded with
the hymn Jesus. Lover of My Soul. In
the closing collects the names of the five
dead explorers were included.
TIE whole service was most impressive.
Vast crowds stood uncovered outside the
cathedral. A great number of British
bluejackets was present, both inside ana
outside.
Similar memorial services We're held at
Portsmouth, Devonport, Chatham and
other naval centers. and in many churches
throughout the kingdom. The Union Jack

Surface Grows Sandlike.

Owing to the lateness of the season and
the consequent fall in temperature, the
surface became sandlike, as is we'll
known in polar climates. Ice crystals
which melt under the friction caused by
sledge running over them at higher
temperatures cease to do so when the
thermometer falls to 80 below zero. and
become cutting edges. The low tempera-
lures complained of by Scott account for
the slowness of the partys progress over
the Barrier. The average distance be-
tween depots was siXty-five miles. which,
not allowing for bad weather. meant that
the party must average over nine miles
day.
The food and fuel stored at each depot
gave a full ration at this speed for
week. The best days march Of the south
ern party on the Barrier was approx
mately nine miles, falling at later stages
of the march to as low as three miles

This campaign will then be push

publicity forces employed so that the
issue in it's broadest sense may be

will ask the use of the hall of the

SPRAYING WHEN THE FRUIT is
FROZEN.

In many portions of Pennsylvania
the fruit crop has been destroyed by
the freezing weather, and orchard
lists are now writing to State Zoolog-
ist, H. A. Surface, Harrisburg, ask
ing if it would be worth while for
them to spray their trees this spring
where the fruit is frozen and there
is to be no crop this summr. Prof.
Surface does not think it necessary
nor especially advantageous to go to
the expense of spraying the stone
fruits under such conditions, but
does recommend spraying the pome
fruits, or apple, pear and ounce,
with fungicide to keep the leaves
healthy, and thus to develop strong
healthy fruit buds for next years
crop, as shown in the following reply
which was sent to one Of the large
fruit growers in Cambria county,
who is also an officer in the Cambria
County Fruit Growers Association
" In reply to your inquiry as to
whether you should spray your apple
trees, even if the fruit is killed,
can say that it will pay you we'll to
spray the apple, pear and ounce with
a fungicide, such as a gallon and a
quart of strong lime-sulfur in 49
gallons of water, or the average Bor-
deaux mixture, applying this spray
two or three times during the sum-
mer, so as keep the trees healthy
and vigorous. If the trees are kept
growing well, they will produce
good strong fruit buds which will be
the assurance of next years crop.
The first spraying with the fungicide
can be done at any time. This is
very inexpensive aNthe only element
that means much in the way of cost
in summer spraying, besides the la
Dor, is the arsenate of lead. If you
have no chewing insects present, and
the fruit crop is killed, it is not nee
essary to add arsenate of lead to the
fungicide for the summer spraying.
If l were doing it I should spray my
pome fruit trees with the boiled
lime-sulfur solution, either home
made or commercial, as directed
above, omitting the arsenate of lead
unless there is evidence of canker
worms, caterpillars, or leaf-eating
insects of other kinds present or
| about to appear"

Il enjoyed a rarely delightful outing

where they took the boat for Buffalo.
They crossed Lake Ontario to the doc

site Ogdensburg, N. Y, where they
spent several days with old family &C.

awful island of death was the chief
fruit Of his heroism. -.
when | took charge of the relief
work in this terrible detention camp
I was given an unlimited credit to
draw on the Bulgarian army supplles,
but we did not need greatly to deplete
these supplies on account of the pro-
visions sent by the British consul at
Philippopolis. Not only did no massa-
cres takes place in the mosques, but
so well were they guarded that when
we attempted, in a spirit OF mild
vandalism, to remove a piece OF the
Koran lying on the floor of the Sultan
Selim mosque, We were. prevented
from doing SO by a vigilant Bulgarian
soldier. An Armenian gentleman, VINO
saw from a tower the long gray col
umns of RulEariaps entering the city,
said to one with, feeling, The Bulgari-
ans entered the. city like gentlemen;
how different it would have been had
the tables been turned"
MI. Woodruff declares further that
his work in the city kept him from
seeing much of the second Balkan
war, but on his trip through the u
try on his way home he did not find
any creditable evidence connecting the
Bulgarian regulars with any atrocities.
The missionary is full of praise for
Miss Clara Haskell, an American mis-
sionary teacher, who was acting as a
nurse in a Bulgarian hospital when
the Turks re-etered Adrianople. All
the able-bodied Bulgarians, including
the doctors, fed, leaving the invalids
to their fate. Miss Haskell, besought
to flee by the Bulgarian doctors, de-
clined to do so, declaring that she
preferred to remain with her charges
at the risk of her life if necessary
She was not molested by the invaders,
and her patients were not disturbed.
"The king Of all liars" is the title
bestowed on the king Of Greece by
Pastor D.. N. Furnajieff, a Bulgarian,
who is in London as a member of the
delegation which presented the for
eign office with a statement regarding
the proportions of Bulgarians In the
region of the Enos Media line
Pastor Furnajieff, who is a Princeton
graduate, declares the Grecian mon
arch has earned the title by his sign
ed statement to the press that 10000
Moslems has been. m~assacred at Dol
ran by the Bulgarians. The pastor is
a native of the district near Dorian
and he declares that the town, which
is almost purely Bulgarian, has only
1000 people, and that in the whole
district there are not more than 1000
Moslems. The Bulgarian clergyman
states that the Greek king has beer
equally far from the truth in his Other
charges against the Bulgarian armies

He declares that on inquiry at the
British foreign Office, he learned that
not a single English consul in the
Balkans had reported the Bulgarians
as the perpetrators of atrocities.
Recruiting for the corps of gum
women of the Women's Social and
Political union has come to a stand
still for the reason that the authorl-
ties alarmed at the growing number
of women asking permission to bear
arms, have declined to issue any more
licenses to women. Nevertheless, no
less than 300 licenses to carry arms
had been issued to members of the
w. S. P. U. before this restrictive
measure was adopted.
1t is believed that this disquieting
information. supplemented by news
from Scotland yard that the militants
had erected a pistol range near Lon
don, caused the home office to make
overtures for the present truce be-
tween the government and the Pank-
hurst forcs.
