rand in a last dash to bring out the
marooned victims.
The plight Of the Maid of Or
leans is unknown. Mariners have
expressed grave fears for her safety
and every effort is being made to
ascertain her position.
The schooner, which sailed from
Seattle June %, is in command Of
Capt. Christian Klingenberg, veteran
fur trader. He is the white ruler
Of Victoria Land, which lies in the
far reaches Of the north beyond the
Beaufort Sea and 1000 miles north
east of Point Barrow.
Among the nine persons on board
was Miss Alice Supplee, plucky
young school teacher-the first white
girl to venture on a voyage to the
far distant island.
The schooner was last heard from
$50 miles north of Nome. She had
been unable to land there on account
of severe weather. 1t is now feared
that she, too, has become marooned
in the ice fields.
Captain Klingenberg, with two Of
his sons, made a spectacular ''mush"
with dogs across the SHOWS to the
mainland last spring and weeks later
feached Seattle, giving the two
boys their first glimpse of civiliza-
ton. While in Seattle he fitted the
Maid Of Orleans for the northern
voyage and engaged Miss Supplee as
a teacher for his family. His native
wife, six children and several grand
children await his return to Victoria
Land.

Not in years has the age-old strug-

Man and his ships have been los

An unusually vicious drive OF polar
ice has engulfed luckless vessels In
a grinding, crushing mass and

of a frozen sea.
The motor schooner Lady Kinders-

twenty two men on board: the mys-

passenger, and the thrilling duel of
the coast guard cutter Bear are high

In Alexandria, La, two. women

Utah grocer asks divorce because
she threw eggs at him, pleading, of

Clothes will be back in style again

of bathing beach queens.
Fall and the annual yarn about
squirrels storing golf balls for nuts
are both due Sept. %.
The trouble with losing fortune
is you can't get anybody to help
you find another one.
Everybody knows exactly how to
raise children except the people who
are raising them.
All the world is a stage on which
there are many trap doors.
The violin is almost as hard to
learn to play as poker.
The harvest moon will make many
an alleged woman hater see things
in an entirely different light.
Auto tenders don't know anything
about the law.
What the country needs as much
