aid partnership already in vogue in
Sweden and Denmark, has come to
Norway.
While the coalition is regarded as
somewhat flimsy by some political OBJ
servers, it will be sufficient, it is agreed.
to permit Prime Minister Nygaardsvold
of the new Labor party to put through
his relief program.
This program includes an increase
in appropriated relief funds from
1000 900 to 100000 kroner (about
SIS, 8,000,0 ,000). The additional funds
are to be used for communal loans,
relief work projects and special aid to

dergoing repairs at the Navy Yard
until March 1e, 1924, when she re-
turned to Caribbean duty. During the
time she was being repaired there are
no entries in the log. Shortly after
wards the Peacock went on an expedi-
ton to the Pacific.
Various popular accounts of the
Symmes incident credit Secretary
Southard with the intention of send
ing the Peacock into the Arctic to
sail over the verge" 1t was the in
tereSt aroused in exploration at this
time, Peale says, that resulted in the
exploring expedition of 1886, of which
he was a member and which made the
earliest discovery of land in the Ant
arctic.
But the Symmesites were not easily
discouraged. One of their number
was jeremiah N. Reynolds of Ohio
who went about the country lecturing
on the Symmes scheme, in an effort to
raise money to outfit a private expedi-
tion-this time to go into the interior
of the earth across the southern verge.
Again the result Is somewhat in doubt.
It is certain, however, that in 1880
two ships, the Apnawan and the
Seraph. left New Bedford for the
Antarctic under the command, re-
spectively, of Capt. j. B. Palmer and
Capt. Benjamin Pendleton. On board
the Annawan, and apparently prom
inent member of the party, was one
j. N. Reynolds. He was listed as Jour
alist." Capt. Palmer was the New
Bedford whaler who already had made
somewhat disputed land discoveries
below the Antarctic circle.
Crews Mutiny.
The ships ran into the ice. The
scurvy-stricken crews mutinied. They
were obliged to turn northward and
put into Valparaiso where the mu-
tineers were turned over to the Amer
ican consul. Then they proceeded to
''the coast Of Araucania," where Rey-
nolds attempted to establish friendly
relations with the chiefs of that ma
ton" He and a companion dis
appeared among the Indians. The
ships sailed north.
It cannot be said positively that
the 81. N. Palmer" of this expedition
was the jeremiah N. Palmer who lee
tured through the United States on
the Symmes theory with the an
nounced purpose of financing an ex-
pedition. But on December 81, 1881
Capt. Pendleton presented memorial
to Congress in which he detailed the
misadventures of himself and Palmer
and asked for Federal aid in re-
suming the project because Of its
great Importance to the United
States" He fails to mention in the
memorial what the project" was
Apparently no action was taken on his
petition.

record is concerned, the Symmes fan.

Peale states positively that in 1924
the sloop Peacock was being outfitted
by Secretary Southard's orders, at the
Washington Navy Yard for a voyage
over the northern verge into the In
terror Of the earth and that at that
time he first was offered a post on the
| scientific staff for the voyage. The
expedition was called of, he says, be-
cause it was found that certain addi-
tional equipment was necessary fol-
which special appropriation must be
obtained. The House Naval Affairs
Committee refused to sanction such
an expenditure.
There were no records Of HOUSE
Committee hearings at the time. Thu

Just whether the building being razed is any

to say, but the site at least viii be remem-

in the early days Of the Capital Of the Nation,
when such men as John Randolph, Rufus
King Senator Gore, Gen. Sumter, Castor and
Pinckney of South Carolina, Nelson of Vir-
ginia and Aaron Burr, when in his best days,
made visits there, and, according to the diary
kept by Mrs. Thornton, whose husband de-
signed the Capitol, she was present at this
hotel on June 6. 1800 by invitation, to dine
with President John Adams and the inhabi-
tants of Georgetown
The hotel was then being conducted by q
Mr.. Mclaughlin, who was succeeded about
1907 by william Crawford and who turned
over the business In 1871 to Peter Brady.

stopped here in the early days included Louis

maintained remarkable equipages, there being

A stage was always kept in waiting at the
door to convey members Of Congress to and

Oh, Zanzibar, Of lovely sound,

All Of the Orients romance,

The burnoose floating in the breeze

With spice and myrrh from San'o~kand.
But these are dreams Tue built around
Your name with its aIluring sound;
What pain if you should prove to be
A dreary waste of sand and sea.

SOLUTION TO PREVIOUS
CONTRACT PROBLEM.

This is the fifth of series of
articles in which Sam Mailman,
eastern tournament director of the
American Bridge league, shows the
smother play"
Mailman is the latest addition to
the leagues staff, and will this
year assist Russell J. Baldwin in
conducting the country's major
tournaments. Baldwin today is ac-
knowledged as Americas outstand-
ing bridge tourney director.
Successful execution of the
smother play" Mailman explains,
often depends upon proper timing
of the throw-in. 1t is absolutely
necessary that certain hand be
in the lead when the smother play
is to be made. 1t is not the type
of play that can be made IL either
opponent is thrown into the lead,
as the smother play consists of ap-
parently establishing a trump
trick for the opponents.
The hand without trump must
be thrown into the lead. An ex-
ample of how this play must be
executed is outlined today.
The Play.
Vests opening lead of the queen
of hearts is overtaken by East with
the king. The ace is played and
then the four of hearts, which
South trumps with the four Of
spades. =
The bidding has more or less
indicated that West holds six clubs
and five OF hearts, and while 1t loks

spades, he might have two spades
and be void in diamonds.
