Says Eskim0s Have
No Reason4to Lie in
Pole Controversy

Bangor, Me-, Jan. 25-(AP)-Eski-
mos, who in the eyes of the world,
disproved DIR. Frederick Cooks claim
to discovery of the North Pole, "had
no reason to lie" according to DIR.
Harrison j. Hunt of Bangor, who ac-
companied Donald B. Macmillan on
the Croker Land expeditions in 1913
to 1917, during which the Cook
claims were investigated.
DR.. Hunt, moreover, asserted to-
day in commenting on Road Amund-
sens reported statement concerning
Admiral Peary's claim, that the two
Esklmos who passed the lie to Cook
were questioned at the request of
General Thomas II. Hubbard before
DIR. Hunt and six other members of
the Croker expedition, and that they
traced out Cooks course on separ-
ate maps, each without reference to
the other. The routes traced by each
of the Eskimos who had accompanied
Cook-Apela and Etookasche-said
DIR. Hunt, showed that Cook at no
time had been nearer than 500 miles
from the North Pole.
Amundsen's reported statement
was that Cooks claim to discovery
could not be disputed on the ground
OF the Eskimos' testimony inasmuch
as the Eskimos were in the habit
OF giving you any answer you ask
Tor. DIR. Hunt said the Eskimos had
not been asked for an answer but
had traced out the route followed by
COOK without instructions from mem
bers of the Croker Land expedition
as to what was wanted of them and
without knowing that there was any
intention of disproving Cooks claim,
The Eskimos, he said, were friendly
to Cook.

Many Condolences
In Death Cardinal
MERCER at Malines

Malines, Belgium. Jan. 25-(AP)-
Although only three Belgians thus
far been honored with national
funeral, the homage that is being
paid Cardinal MERCER transcends,
even that given monarch. In his
robes of violet. mitre in hand and the
great gold cross upon his breast,
thousands of people in all walks of
life continue to pass by the bier on
which his body lies in the archepis-
copal residence here to which it was
transferred yesterday from the hos
pital where the prince of the church
died on Saturday.
From all parts of the world have
come messages of coincidence on the
passing of the beloved prelate.
Among these is one from President
Coolidge sent to the embassy here by
Secretary of State Kellogg. In it
there was. reference made to the in
domitable courage of the cardinal in
the interests of humanity and better
ment of world conditions. President
Coolidge's appreciation of the de-
parted primate has evoked nation
wide expressions of friendly senti-
ments.
Before he passed away the Cardi-
nal last Tuesday wrot with his own
hand a religious will, addressed to
the Anglican archbishop of Canter-
bury.
The details of this document have
not been made public, but as it was
written shortly after the visit to the
cardinal by Lord Halifax, president
of the Anglican church union. it is
believed that it has referred to the
question of union of the Roman
and Anglican churches for which the
cardinal long had been working.

Rehearsals are being held every
night this week for the Knights of

presented on Monday and Tuesday
evenings, Feb. and 9, at the high

Henry Heselton. Wallace Stonier,

John Skinne~ and George Desmond.
All of these men are young and full
of life and pep, 2veral of them have
appeared On the local stage before
and were real successes in black
face. Two or three of them are new
on the stage but those in the know
who have been attending the rehear-
sails say that they are in a fair way
to eclipse the efforts of Gardeners
better known minstrel actors.
Rehearsals are under the direction
of David Kelley. and thus this part of
the affair is in good hands. There are
six girls in the cast and eighteen
men, but the experts say that it is
quality not quantity that counts in
this case.
