The Conquest of Mt.
Mckinley.

There has not been much of a stir over
the conquest of Mt. Mckinley by Arch.
deacon Stuck. Yet this peak, the high
est in the whole western world, has been
the goal OF explorers for more than de-
cade.
DIR. Cook claimed to have scaled it to
the summit in 1908. We recall hearing
him lecture on the ascent before the
American Geographical Society in New
York, in 1904. And we recall another
episode in connection with this alleged
conquest. The doctor was booked to
lecture in Atlantic City in September
1909, on the discovery of the North
Pole, when suddenly out of Montana the
news come hot over the wire that the
Doctors Mt. Mckinley guide had repu-
dated his claim of having climbed the
big mountain.
1t was that affidavit. made by the
guide, that really was the straw that
broke the back of this fakir's camel.
Dr. Cook subsequently went to Montana
to nail the lie; confronted the guide that
knew the truth, and heard himself cali
ed liar to his teeth. A few weeks af-
ter that he vanished, and the country
knew the truth.
Some explorers have said that the trip
up the $4,000 feet of Mt. Mckinley is
more difficult than the trip to the pole,
for the reason that artic conditions are
encountered from the very base. In the
conquest of the great mountains, for ex-
ample in the Andes and Himalayas, real
hardahips of cold and ice are encount-
cred until the climber has assembled two
miles or more.
Until Archdeacon Stuck conquered
Mt. Mckinley, the American mountain
climbing record was held by foreigner.
the Duke of Abruzzi, who scaled Mt. St.
Elias, situated in Alaska, no great dis
tance from Mt. Mckinley. 1t was this
same Italian Duke, it will be recalled,
who subsequently attempted to reach
the North Pole. but who reaped his
greatest harvest in fame through the re-
port that he was engaged to marry Miss
Katherine Elkins.-Exchange.

Bees Swarm On And Kill Pa.

When jeremiah Kramer, aged 72, who
resides near PIstsburg, Pa, entered his
wagon shed the other day he ran into
lot of bees, which were about tc
swarm on projecting beams. Instead oi
taking to the beams, the bees envelop
ed Kramer and piled onto his two-foot-
long whiskers. Kramer yelled for helI
and fought the bees as best he could,
but he was soon blinded and helpless
from their stings.
The onslaught OF the bees soon rem
dered him unconscious, and he wa:
found by his son, Joshua, three hour:
later lying on the wagon-shed floor
with the myriad OF bees on his head,
arms and neck, which were swollen tc
twice their natural size. Although med

TRAGEDIES
THANKSGIVING
FATAL TO2
One Boy Killed as Brothers Shot
gun ExpIodes-Another Fatally
Shoots Himself in Accident.

Two Atlanta families were in
mourning Friday as the result of
Thanksgiving hunting tragedies. In
each case the victim was a young
lad, and in each case the killing was
accidental.
A shotgun in the hands of young
Basil Bridwell exploded and blew
away the base of skull of his To-
year-old brother, Charles, son of MI
and Mrs. A b, BridWell, residing on
the Mayson and Turner road.
The accidental discharge of a rife
caused the death of 14-year- old
Johnnie Garst, son of James E. Garst
recently a candidate for Recorder
Brush Pulls Trigger.
The lad was carrying the weapon
himself, and it is believed to have
been fired by catching on the under
brush through which he and his COM
panion, Frank Williams, were max
ing their way.
Garst was hunting with william
and other friends in the woods near
Sisson's Crossing about o'clock in
the afternoon. William was slightly
in the rear of young Garst Will
liams was startled by the report of
Garsts rife. Garst sank to the
ground with a bullet wound in his
abdomen.
The terrified boys called for help,
and in a short time the Grady am
bulance was on the scene. The in
jured lad lived for a short time a fter
his removal to the hospital expiring

His father was notified, but not in

Basil and Charles Bridwell were
invited on the hunting trip that end
Ell fatally for the latter by a party
Of boys that passed their house. They
had been unsuccessful in stirring up
any rabbits, and were gathered
about in a group talking when the
accident took place Basil was eX-
