Mr.. Stefanssons had many slides made

exceedingly interesting.
On his second trip the explorer was
accompanied by DIR. r. NJ. Anderson
OF the University of Iowa and some of

blonde Eskimo in that country and he
spent many months living with these
strange people so as to become ac-

Found Trees.
Before he went on his last trim Il
vas claimed by most Of the leading
authorities that there were no trees
near the Arctic Ocean. but Mr.. Stef.
ansson has proof that there are trees
within ten miles Of the Polar Sea and
also that there r several different
kinds of vegetation in the extreme
north. He claims that potatoes. and
different kinds Of grain are raised as
far as 1900 miles north Of Edmonton
and this discovery is a great revela-

A batch of bank-notes had been stolen,
and the detective found someone to

the notes, at least, at her house.
So implicitly did the detective rely
upon mis- informer that he set aside
the formality OF a search warrant, and
proceeded to visit the old woman's
house, locked the doors on the inside,
and rummaged the rooms from cellar
to roof. He Is an officer who prides
