Old Boreas and his winter winds and
powdcry snow did a great Job OF CON
spiracy against the current Automobile

visitors have passed the ticket takers;

the last three days of the week.

evening, in this room, and thus give an
opportunity for the automobile men to
demonstrate their lightness of foot and
capacity for guiding n partner as Wen as

which Mr. Tate has shown his readiness
to cooperate with the show management,
ever since the plans for the affair were
progress, and they feel under correspond.
ing obligations 10 him.
Tonight figures on the show calendar
as Society night, and n correspond
ing'y brilliant evening Is anticipated.

SEEK GOLD IN THE ARCTIC
Adventures Are Now Prospecting the
Coasts of Baffin Bay and
Davis Strait

One of the really pathetic stories Of
modern history is the mutiny of Henry
Hudson's crew when he was exploring
the arctic waters of North America,
and his abandonment, with his son in
that vast inland sea that bears his
name, a writer In the Brooklyn Eagle
remarks. Many lives have been sacri-
hced in the quest of the North and
South poles. Sir John Franklin's and
the Jeannette's parties In the north
and the recent Scott expedition at the
south only need be mentioned.
Plans are afoot to open up the Baffin
bay region to commerce. For many
years small steamers have been max
ing summer visits to Hudson bay to
trade with the natives, and the Cana
dian government Is building railway
to one of its ports. Railroad and COM
mercial development of Alaska by
American enterprise has caused pros
pecting of the mineral resources Of
the coasts of Baffin bay and Davis
strait, with the result of finding, at the
former place, gold in sufficient quanti-
ties to Justify development, and coal
of excellent quality along the latter.
The latitude is about the same as that
of the Yukon region and only few
degrees north of that of Nome, which
has developed into large community.
So impelllng is the lure Of gold that
the hardshlps Of an arctic climate will
not deter Adventures from hazarding
their lives against the wealth said to
be buried under the eternal snow and
ice of Baffin island.

Canada's Bird Refuge.

1t is something for one bird to tell
another that Canada has created q
series of reserves in the province OF
Quebec where birds are safe from man
made troubles.
Unlike most bird refugees, Perez
Rock, picturesque island near Perez
village; the east and north cliffs of
Bonaventure island, three miles further
away; and the northernmost of the
Magdalen islands, 124 miles out to sea,
have been set apart specifically to pro-
tect birds whose value TO mankind is
chiefly their beauty as part of ma
ture.
There is no attempt to argue, for
example, that the gannet, the kitti-
wake, or the razorbill aux should be
protected because they. help the
farmer; they are protected simply be-
cause they are birds.
No human being may steal an egg
from their nests; no weapon danger
Gus to their welfare may be brought
within a mile of their island sanctu-
aries.
Naturally all other birds are equally
safe, and the refugees Will be a help
toward carrying out the purpose Of
the international treaty for bird pro-
lection.
