As to what was done. Nausea proved

selfncncai'er than anybody also had done
--by walking and dodging over the ice.
It war too. He has-proved that there in
no land north of Franz Josef Land on
the eastern half of the globe. Whatever
landward’advancec are to be made in
future will therefore be from the west-
ern side of the world north of Green-
land. The Americans BrainardI 11nd
Lockwood found ,in 1881 a fringe of
land northeast of Greenland and traced
its southern. shores westerly for some
distance. It was in latitu de 88 degrees
24 minutes. This is still the highest
point of land attained by man. Lock-
wood and Bruinard thought it was part
of the northern coast of Greenland.
Peary proved two years ago that it was
not. but that it was a detached mass
north of Greenland. It will probably
turn out to be the land that is nearest
to the pole of any on the globe. And it
will yet be reached—that, too, by the
Greenland route, which the explorations
of 1890 apparently show to be the most
feasible.
The interior of north Greenland has
been named Peary Land, and the chan-
nel which separates the north coast of
Greenland from the. land reached by '
Brainard and Lockwood has been named
Peary channel.
In the frozen aolitudes of Alaska, Pro-
fessor Alfred Eldridge mado the discov-
ery, already noted, of the ruins of a pre-
historic city 400 miles up the Kuivalik
river from its mouth in Kotzebne sound.
Of all the achievements of the arctic ex.
plorers this year that of Professor El-
dridge is most interesting. The city was
great and prosperous in the days when
the north pole enjoyed a warm climate.
Interesting as well as important, too,
was the finding by Professor Dyche of
great ledges of coal in Alaska. The coal
issosoft that it can be cut with a knife.
Still, it is there.
What a Spaniard is at his best, cour-
teous, honorable, high minded and
quick tempered, mankind knows. What
a Spaniard is at his worst tho haplen
Moors in Spain feund out more than
four centuries ago, the Montcznmas in
Mexico and the Incas in Peru found out
soon after America was discovered and
the Cubans are finding out today. They
have had the knowledge forced upon
them that a red Indian in planning 1115
most fiendish and ingenious torture
schemes is no worse than a high born
Spanish gentleman at his worst. It is
on record and is a fact. that a wounded
Cuban scout, so injured that he fell
from his horse and was on ptnrcd by the
Spanish in the province of Havana, was
tied to the tail of a horse with his arms
bound behind him. The horse. was then
gullopml over the roughest roads hither
and thither till the. life was beaten and
bruised out of the. unhappy scout.
When they released the thing that was
left, the flesh had been nearly all tom
of! the bones. Oh, yes! it is well to
raise :1 cry against Armenian outrages,
is it not, while Inch horrors as these are
perpetrated at our own doors in Cuba?
A religious paper comments on the
fact that now Bibles are cheaper than
they ever were before. In connection
with this fact it may be Well to record
another fact latoly reported toa labor
union. It was that a certain deacon,
Well known for his church affiliations
and influence, had 11 contract to supply
covers to the Bibles printed by a very
great Bible company. The deacon paid
his bookbindora 13012011111 11 day and made
them work on Sunday. ()thcr book cov-
ers for the great Bible company were
shown to be made in sweatshops and
tenement houses. Of course the head
officers of the company were not aware
of these facts, but they have a queer
look all the same.
This year sees in the United States
not only the greatest corn crop We over
raised, but ltkowiso the greatest apple
crop. There will certainly be sent to
Europe,by the beginning of 18117, 1, 300, -
000 barrels of apples, perhaps more.
The heavy shipments last foul- months,
beginning about Hept. 1. A man who
has plenty of timcon his hands has been
calculating how many miles of barreled
apples we produce this year. Ho has
found that, if the barrels were laid end
to end armnd the earth and back, there
would be 57,000 1111ch (1 them, enough
to go round the globe at the equator
twice, with 7,000 miles to spare.

Since the big storm of Oct. 12 and 14
swept up the outlet 'the northern end of
sandy Book has been transformed from a
peninsula Into an Island Four miles
south of the old New Jersey Southern rail-
road bout landing and five miles south of
the point of the Hook is the bathing ra-
sort of Highland Beach. The bathing
grounds are just across the Shrewsbury
river from the two big lighthouses known
as Highland lights. For a full mile the
ltrlp of beach Is very narrow, and in that
distance there Is no point where the river
and ocean are separated by more than 100
yards. James and bulkheads have been
crectul, and many trululoads of stone
have been dumped here in past. years to
protect the railroad .track from ocean
storms, and the preventive trimaran have
been successful until the last big storm
came along. Now the sea 11011103 through
Into the Shrowsbury byway of an inlet
600 yards in width. and the breakers make
the little. river steamers roll as they pass
by the Inlet on their way up to New York.
Years ago, before the railroad company
had to abandon the Hook altogether to the
Federal government, long and heavy pil-
ing was driven to support the track. It
was driven deep and well braced, and it
stood the storm wcll. Today It. is the. only
connection between the mainland 11 nd the
Hook. The Indications are that. the next
storm will remove even this link, for the
new Inlet is becoming wider and deeper
with each tide.
In tho curly part of this century the bulk
of the water of Shrewsbury river and its
tributaries passed out into the ocean at this
very polnt. :50 wide and deep was this old
time inlet that many a Yankee craft
escaped British war vessels by slipping
through it into the Shrew-slimy.
It looks as though the old lnlut had
come to stay, for even now it Would take
hundreds of trainlouds of stone and earth
