1897 REVEALED
Find Bodies of BaIIooniStS,
in Arctic Wastes for
80 Years.
LOG TO TELL STORY
Norwegian Fishing Vessel
BareS Old Tragedy of
Far North.
BIZ United Press

| BY UutbcU Press
OSLO, Norway, Aug. 22-The
fate of the Andree expedition, which
started for the north pole in a bal
loon thirty-three years ago last
month, has been solved after hav-
ing been locked by a secret in the
frozen Arctic wastes since 1897.
The bodies of two members Of the
expedition, strangely preserved by
the cold, have been found on a fro
zen island near Franz Joseph Land,
in the north polar regions. They
had flown from Spitzbergen in a
balloon with one other man, whose
body apparently has not yet been
found.
The two bodies were discovered at
a camp they had made on Victoria
island, which is within a few de-
grees of the north pole. Apparently
they had drifted hundreds of miles
from their starting point before
coming down. They built a shelter
under cliff and died of starvation
and cold.
Rescue Expeditions Log
The log of the remarkable ex-
petition was recovered.
Members of the expedition we're
Solomon August Andree, an aero
naut and explorer; Nils Strindberg
and Knut H. F. Fraekel.
They left Danes island, Spitz-
bergen, on July II, 1897. They were
heard from when a carrier pigeon
returned to civilization bearing a
message which gave the expeditions
position as north 80 degrees. After
that there was silence. They were
hunted for years, but no definite
word ever was received until today,
although many false rumors were
circulated.
The bodies were found on Aug. 6
by a Norwegian fishing vessel. The
bodies we're fully clothed and in a
good state of preservation. There
was no doubt of the identification
of Andree, since his name was
found in his pocket.
| DHlp Oblu III r at NOIbA
Word that the log book was found
was hailed with interest, since it is
expected to disclose dramatic
story of the expeditions finish.
The fishing ship, the Brattvaag, is
still in Franz Joseph Land, with the
bodies aboard. The ship expects to
reach NORWAY about Sept. 10. A
small Norwegian fishing boat
reached Norway this morning, bring
ing the news of the finding.
The body of the third man was
believed to be frozen solidly in a
small boat found frozen in the ice.
When the fishing boat left, the
Brattvaag was trying to get the
ice out of the boat and recover the
body.
Finding of Anddree's body, if con-
f1rmed, solves a mystery that has
been locked in the arctic wastes for
thirty-three years. Andree, it is re-
corded in the Encyclopedia Britain
MICA, had taken balloon to Danes
island, Spitzbzergen, in 1896, in
tending to explore the polar regions,
but bad weather forced its delay.
On July II, the following year he
started in new and larger balloon
with two companions and about five
tons of supplies.
Andree's attempt to fly to the
north pole created great interest in

Way IS PAVED
FOR OGDEN TO
MOVE ON MOB
Prosecutor Has Decided
to Do Nothing, State
ment Hints.
OFFICER MAY BE TRIED
Laws Provide Means of
Action Against Campbell,
and Punish Rioters.

Way was paved today for Attor-
ney-General James M. Ogden to
follow the Indiana law and insist
that Sheriff Jacob C. Campbell be
tried and mob leaders brought to
justice, because of the lynching Of
two Negroes at Marion, Aug. Z.
The Indiana statute provides
that the Encouragement is en-
powered to proceed against sheriff
and mob members when the local
authorities fail to act.
That Prosecutor Harley F. Hardin
of Grant county has decided to do
nothing was indicated in an inter-
view with an Indianapolis Times
reporter here Thursday night.
Fears Race Riot
"Agitators seeking speedy punish
ment for leaders of the Marion mob
that lynched two Negroes will keep
on until they cause a race riot"
Hardin declared, in commenting on
the Negro delegation which called
on Governor Harry @. Leslie
Wednesday.
They presented a petition asking
the sherif's removal. prosecution or
mob leaders, and protection for wit
nesses who will identify them.
Expressing his opposition to the
way certain factions are striving for
action against the mob leaders, Har-
din stated that it is his belief that
nothing will be done about the mat
ter.
Offered No Comment
He declared that only two Marion
Negroes had signed the petition to
the Governor.
The petition really contains names
of five Marion Negroes. Hardin OF
fered no comment as to whether
terror kept others from signing.
Guilt Of the two Negroes taken
from the jail and lynched was be-
yond doubt" Hardin concluded
Merle wall. deputy attorney-gen-
eral, who with Earl Stroup, another
deputy, went to Marion and got
Hardin to issue five afidavits for
arrest of alleged mob leaders, stated
today that Hardin appeared con-
cerned about the political conse-
quence of serving warrants.
This will beat me. Wall reported
Hardin as saying.
Affieavits Refused
But Judge Oliver D. Clawson OF
Grant circuit court came to the
rescue. He refused to accept the
affidavits until the September term
of court.
Ogden is out of the city until
Wednesday. and no move will be
made by the attorney-generars Of
fee until he returns, Wall said to-
day.
So far Sheriff Campbell remains
optimistic and denied, according to
Marion dispatches, that he will re-
sign either his official post or posi-
ton of chairman of the Grant
county Republican organization
Certain Republicans are said to be
urging that he do both for the good
of the party.
Governor Leslie announced Thurs
day that Campbell no longer is be-
ing considered for the superinten-
dency of the Indiana state reforma-
tory. a post for which he was an
applicant.

When Great Folks Turn Petty
Beethoven Sent Coats Beard to Lady Who Asked
Lock of His Hair
BY ]. p. GLASS.

Beethoven has been accused Of not
being tender in his treatment Of other
musicians, and there Is no doubt that
he often offended them.
For instance, at the court Of Fred
erick William II OF Prussia his sar-
castle words broke up q blossoming
friendship between himself and the
Kappellmeister Himmell.
Himmell made the mistake of COM
peting with Beethoven in inprovising
upon the piano. After Beethoven had
listened for some time he said: "You
prelude great while. When are you
going to begin?"
It was remark Of uncalled-for
rudeness. But then, the great COM
poser was not noted for tactfulness.
Indeed. he used a very biting, sarcastic
tongue with frequency. He stopped, too,
to little indignities which 1t is i'm
possible to visualize In one who could
compose so nobly. Witness his per-
Torrance in the case of the wife OF
M. H-m, o pianoforte player and
composer of Vienna.
Mime. H--m was great admirer of
Beethoven. Being sentimental lady,
she desired to nossess a lock of the
composers hair.

BEAUTY CHATS
A New Fashion.

Since the styles in dresses have
changed so rapidly it Is necessary to
make an equally revolutionary change in
the way the hair Is dressed. The very
young women are letting theirs grow,
but the women who are more than 30
are not 50 anxious 70 adopt q style
which Is bound TO make them look
much older. There are various COM
promises, however, by which you may
keep the hair conveniently short yet
give the effect Of having 1t long and also
make 1t sophisticated in style so you
look well In the new type Of dresses.
One of the best ways Is to comb the
hair back of the ears. You can very
easily change. your whole manner of
hairdressing by letting the ears show
whenever you put on an evening dress.
During the day, with your simple tai
lored frocks, comb your hair in your
usual fashion-n 1t covers the ears and
comes well out over the cheeks, it will
give O softening effect and make the
face look younger.
But there are many ways OF hiding
wrinkles or making q bad skin look
healthy, Of making up the eyes and
generally changing your face in the
evening, SO that hairdressing is not so
important. II you wear an evening
frock Of complicated cut with o long
skirt, do your hair In o picturesque or
sophisticated style, and that's all that's
necessary.
