new EXPEDITION
TO ANTARTIC

London, Feb. 2S.-The steamer Dis
| covery, which the late Captain Scott
used in his first Antarctic voyage, has
been chartered by the British Antarc-
tic expedition which is to be COM
manded by J. Foster Stackhouse, and
Will leave London about Aug. / for the
far south. Mr.. S~tackhoise, whose OK
ploratory work has heretofore been
confined to Iceland, will make no at
tempt to reach the pole. His main
purpose will be to determine the coast
line of King Edward VII land on one
side of the Antarctic circle, and Ora
ham Land on the other. Between these
two sections Of discovered land
stretches a vast and practically unex-
plored region. The expedition will at
tempt to reach the pole, determine
or sea. whether King Edward VII Land
Is part of the great Antarctic CONT
nent or merely an island or group Of
islands set in the frozen sea.
The existence Of Graham Land, and
Of Coats Land, Enderby Land and
Kemp Land on the Atlantic border of
the Great Ice Barrier, as well as the
discovery OF land south by Lieutenant
Filchner of the German expedition in
1911. support the continental theory.

west coasts of King Edward VII Land
points, MIR. Stackhouse suggests, to
| the drift Of ice northward from the
Weddell sea to the Ross sea, presum-
ably through a strait separating King
Edward VII Land from Graham Land.
This Is the most ~southerly Of British
! possessions for the whole region be-
tween meridian 200 west and meridian
500 west is claimed for the British
crown. The information which the ex-
petition will obtain as to harbore,

WILL GIVE ENTERTAINMENT.

The Louisa Baptist Church has
secured the services of Miss Kath-
crime Freese, the well known musi-
clan and vocalist of this city. and
Mr.. Nelson Weldon, the accomplish
ed pianist and singer of Ashland,
for musical ENTERTAINMENT to be
given in Louisa on Friday evening,
March 9th. The concert will be
given for the benefit of the church.
1t Is unnecessary to speak to the
people OF Louisa concerning the ar
tistic worth and ability of Miss
Froese. Her voice, naturally fine,
has been cultivated by the best
voice trainers in the United States,
and she does infinite credit 10 her
instructors.
Nelson Weeden has but few
equals as an entertainer. He Is at
home on the piano, and his splen-
did voice, in all sorts of songs, Is a
tit companion. He has received
numerous flattering offers the ac-
ceptance of which would take him
from Ashland, but the people there
'.see the raise" and Weeden doesn't
go. A programme of exceptional
worth has been prepared for the
coming event which will be referred
to later. One or more local anna
teurs may be asked to assist the
stars.

SERIOUSLY BURNED.

Tuesday morning, while engaged
in clearing off her garden for the
&C ming season, Mrs. Lydia Atkins,
OF this city, was seriously burned.
She had raked the rubbish into a
pile and set it on fire, when in pass
Ing near it her dress came In con-
tact with the flame and in an in
stant her dress was ablaze. Her
screams attracted the attention of
her neighbors and several of them
ran to her assistance, Mrs. Bascom
Hale was nearest to Mrs. Atkins
and as she ran to help her shouted
to her to lie down on the muddy
ground. Mrs. Hale reached a barrel
full of water near Mrs. Atkins, but
there was nothing to dip 1t with,
and realizing that no time was to
be los. she tore the burning cloth
es from Mrs. Atkins body, but not
before the unfortunate woman was
badly burned.
Mrs. Atkins was carried into the
house and DR.. Bromley was hastily
summoned. He found that his
patient had been very badly burn
ed on her lower limbs and the back
part of her body. Fortunately the
more vital parts of the body had
escaped much injury, and hopes are
entertained for Mrs. Atkins re.

In her brave efforts to save he1

FoURscoRE YEARS.

Mr.. Rowland T. Burns celebrated
his eightieth birthday last Monday.
He received congratulations from
many friends on that day, but pos
sibly he did not receive any re-
membranes that he appreciated
more than a lovely bouquet of car
nations, forty white and forty-one
red, from the Sunday School of the
M. e. Church South, where he sery-
ed as superintendent for about 80
years. The flowers were presented
by A. Snyder, M. s. Burns, II. c..
Sullivan and Rev. b. M. Keith. a
committee representing the school.
Mr.. Sullivan made the presentation
speech in few well chosen words
expressive OF the great worth OF
life and labors of Mr.. Burns. Mr..
Burns, although very feeble, re-
sponded in a very beautiful and
touching manner.

At an early hour on Monday
morning last the handsome two
story frame residence of John H..
Preston, directly across the river
from Richardson, s miles above

fire. The frame store building,
some fifty feet away, was soon In
flames and both structures were
burned to the ground. A few house
hold articles were carried from
the residence, all that was saved.
Most of the store goods had been
carried TO the store in Richardson.
The residence and its contents
were valued at about $4,000, on
which Mr.. Preston had 81, 200 insur
ance The property was formerly
owned and occupied by Mcdonald

An interesting and important in

creasing popularity, is the refresh

excusable ignorance, pronoun ID in

ever, has almost entirely disappear
ed. No doubt the similarity between
the words coca and cocaine, both
in looks and sound, led to the oplh-
ion that because cocaine is a dopy
drug coca-cola must be, too. Not
bit of it. Cocaine costs about
sixteen dollars an ounce, and 1t Is
hardly possible that the makers OF
the pleasant drink would or could
afford TO use so costly a drug in
their product Coca-cola is gently
and refreshingly stimulating. so is
your much priced morning cup OF
coffee, and the stimulating princi-
pie in both is identical-caffeine

was discharged and two shot struck

and came into town by the hill road

and clearly, setting before his
hearers precisely what the county
agent would do and how 1t was TO
be done. His coming had not been
announced, hence his audience was
small. On Tuesday morning he yis-
