FOUND CONGESTION At ETAH
Explorers Amusing story Of cendi-
.tions He Discovered On the ehsrs
Of North Greenland.

Etah, the most northern settle
ment in the world, consists Of five
black-looking holes in a sloping hill
side, according to q report made by
Donald B. Macmillan, who returned
q few months ago from four years
expedition in the far North. A care
ful census reveals the amazing fac
that in some years even these holes
are not inhabited. Other years, how
ever, the streets are crowded with as
many as Is people! Macmillan re-
ports that on his arrival in Etah he
found q serious congestion-19 men,
women and children.
Etah or Foulke ford, is situated
on the shores Of north Greenland al
the narrowest part Of Smith sound.
700 miles from the north pole. 1t
was first visited by white men upon
the arrival of the Kane expedition
in 1854. Ten or q dozen Eskimos
were encamped there then. It was
named Foulke ford, after William
Parker Foulke of Philadelphia by
DR.. Isaac Israel Hayes, who win
tered in 186O-61 at a small blight in
the land just south of the entrance
called Port Foulke.

Tonight, say, you are wakeful.

SCOTTISH LANDS FOR SALE
UnproductiVe Acres Do Not Seem to
Be in Demand by Buyers ct
Real Estate.

Maclaine of Lochbuie, the mill
tary and music hall celebrity, is try
ing to sell his ancestral estate in
Null, which extends to $4,000 acres,
with deer forest, grouse moors, sal
mon rivers and lochs-all so heavily
bonded that there is now practically
no net revenue, says an Edinburgh
letter writer. Possibly some Glas-
gov millionaire will relieve him OF
his incubus. The duke of Suther-
land has 248,91S acres Of his high
land estate in the market, and it will
not be easy to sell. Castle Menzies,
with 1925 acres, has failed to find
a purchaser, though the property has
been on offer for several years. The
fact is that though farmers are buy
ing readily when they get good OPP
portunity, most city men would re-
fuse to accept typical Scotch es-

NO HUNTING ON THAT TRIP
John Burroughs TelIs Of He Visit 70
Yellowstone Park With Theo-
dore Roosevelt.

Many personal touches Of Roose-
welt are told by John Burroughs, the
naturalist, who was a friend Of the
former president for many years. In
his book, Camping and Tramping
With Roosevelt" the author tells of
many incidents that occurred on the
trip that the two men took to yell
lowstone park in the spring of 1903.
"Some of our newspapers" he
saws, reported that the president
intended to hunt in the park. A
woman in Vermont wrote me, to
protest against the hunting, and
hoped that / would teach the presi-
dent to love the animals as much as
l did-as if he did not love them
much more, because his love is
founded on knowledge, and because
they had been 4 part Of his life. She
did not know that I was then cher
ishing the secret hope that 1 might
be allowed to shoot a cougar or bob
cat; but this fun did not come to
me. The president said: 4 will
not fire a gun in the park; then I
shall have no explanation to make
Yet once I did hear him say in the
wilderness, Z feel IS if 1 ought to
keep the camp in meat. I always
have regretted that he could not
do so on this occasion"

The task of ministering to spir-

equipped mentally. Most of them ap-
parently are, and much praise has
been accorded them by their unusual
