Big PAST MOSES LAKETO PASCO By Connecting With North Bank, Water tirade Is Obtained for Wheat Trains to Ocean Docks at Portland. SEATTLE, Wash.. March 23. (Spe cial.) For the purpose of opening up the rector, bordering Moses Lake, in Douglas County, where 100,000 acres can be irri gated, the Northern Pacific will construct a line from Adrian on the Great North ern line and the present terminus of the Washington Central, to Pas co, passing down the east side of Moses I-ake. through Othello, on the Milwaukee line. President Howard Elliott, of the North ern Pacific, who arrived in the city today, said the road would be built shortly; but he could not state wfcen active work woXilrt begin. "This line will be a very important feeder to the Northern Pacific." said Mr. Klllott. "for it will give an outlet to all our wheat tonnage from the Big Bend country instead of sending it back to Cheney or over the mountains by transfer to the Great Northern. By connecting with the North Bank road at Pasco we have almost a water level haul from the great wheat country of the Big Bend."

On January 9 we left camp and reached latitude 88:23, longitude 162 east, this being the most southerly point ever reached. Here we hoisted the Union Jack presented to us by her ma jesty, the Queen. No mountains were visible and we saw only a plain stretch ing to the south. We then started on the return trip. "We reached the upper glacier depot on the 19th. The snow had blown from I the surface of the glacier, leaving only slippery surface. which presented the greatest difficulties in the descent.' Sick, but Struggle On. "On the morning of January 26 our food was finished. It was slow going. Sixteen -miles were covered in 22. .hours. We reached the lower glacier depot in lati tude 83:45 xn the 27th. There .we ob tained food and proceeded with greater speed. On February 2 Wild was suffering from dysentery, the effects of the horse meat, and on February 4 the party was prostrated from the same disease and unable to move. For eight days the- men suffered, but our condition improving, we managed to make cur way to 'China man depot' on February 13. -The food had run out again. "Three days . later we came In sight of the depot on Minna Bluff, which had been laid by the Joyce party in January. Here we received news from the ship. Marshall had a relapse and. though he suffered greatly, we made a forced march of 24 miles. He was unable to go beyond that, and on the 27th I left him in camp in charge of Adams, while Wild and I made another forced march to the ship FLEISCHER SAYS HEf ILL NOT RUN Merchant Joins Lisjf of Those Who Are Not in Race for Mayoralty.

Owing to the bad Kin amoirg the lee crevasses. Adams and his pony were nearly lost. A few days' later we reached the depot at lati tude 'J:i. loiiKiture 16S east. We com menced to reduce our daily rations and traveled south along meridian 1SS over a varying surface of ridges and moun tains of snow. Kill Ponies to Eat. "Tn latitude 81:64 wo shot a pony and made a depot of oil, biscuit and pony meat, taking the rest of the pony meat to eko out our dried rations. We reached the discovery's most southerly latitude on November 26. The ponies were at tacked by snow blindness and the sec ond of them was shot, the depot being made In latitude 82:45, longitude 170. On November 3o we killed our third pony. "in steering south and southeast we were now approaching a high range of new mountains, trending to the southeast. On December 2 we discovered a glacier 120 miles long and approximately 40 miles wide, running in a south and southwester ly direction, and on December 6, we started to ascend it at latitude 83.33. longl- tude. 172. The glacier was full of ' bad crevasses. It took the whole of the next . day for us to fight our -way 600 yards. On Jiecemher 7 the last remaining pony broke tnrougn a snowsllde and disappeared in a crevasse. Fortunately the singletree snapped and we saved WHO and the sledge, which was damaged. The party was now hauling a weight of 250 pounds per man. "The clouds disappeared December 8 and we discovered new mountain ranges, trending south and southwest. Frostbitten, but Triumphant. "On December IS we reached an alti tude of 6NO0 feet. In latitude 85.10.3 we made a depot and left everything there but our food, instruments and camp equipment and reduced our rations to 20 ounces per man daily. On the 26th we reached a plateau at an altitude of 9000 feet, thence gradually rising In long ridges to 10.600 feet. "Finding that the party was becoming weakened, we decided to risk making a depot on the plateau. On January 4 we proceeded with one tent, utilizing the poles of . the second tent for guiding marks for our return. During January . ?. 8 and 9 the wind blew 70 mllea an hour, , with u: degrees of frost. It was lmpossl- for relief. On March 3 I returned with a relief party and all reached the ship at Hut Point -on March 4 in a blizzard. The total distance of the journey, including relays, was 1708 miles, and the time occu pied 126 days." Nearly Lost In Crevasses. Professor David described the north ern party's Journey to the magnetic pole, which was undertaken by himself. Mar son and Mackey. The party hauled two sledges by relays, the total weight being 600 pounds per man. They made the start on October 6. 1908, and proceeded north of Cape Bernachi, and thence, living mainly on seal meat, crossed the Nordenskjold barrier and relayed to the Drygalski Glacier. On December 6, after extreme difficulties, the party once being nearly lost, they reached the main glacier be tween the Mountains Larsen and Bell ingshausen. rom that on it was fair traveling to the island plateau, the alti tude of which was more than 7,000 feet. They reached the magnetic pole, 280 miles northwest of the Dryjalski depot, on January 26, and hoiaied the Union Jack. Marson determined the position of the pole as being in the vicinity of latitude 72.23, longtltude 1&4. , In the course of tl.eir return and in at tempting to shoot down the main glacier, the party became involved in the ice pressure ridges and .crevasses, necessitat ing the unloading of the sledge and mak ing a carry by hand. . ,' ltest'iicd When Starving. February 8 they arrived at the Inlet glacier, near Drygalski. The provi sions were exhausted except for a few biscuits and retreat was cut off by the breaking up of the sheet ice. The out look was serious, but they were res cued the following day by .the Nlm- rod, returning from Cape Washington The duration of the journey was 122 days and the distance traveled, in cluding relays. 12ti0 miles. Armytage. Presley and Brockelhurst made another geological journey to the west with useful results. Volcano Amid Icefields. Lieutenant Shackleton's story of the expedition opens with a idescrip tlnn of the ascent of Mount Krebus March 17. 1908. The party consisted of Adams. Rrocklehurst. David. Mac kay. Marshal and Marson, , who carried their equipment on their backs. They reached an altitude of 9600 feet.. The temperature was SO degreed below freeing and a violent blizzard raged for 30 hours. The men explored an old crater at an altitude of 11.000 feet. Brocklehurst's feet were frozen and it was necessary to amputate one of his toes. The summit of the mountain was reached March 10. An active crater nail a mile in diameter and 800 feet deep was ejecting vast volumes 6f steam and sulphurous gas t-o a height ot uuu ieet. Abundance of Life. Shackleton then described the ' prep arations for the sledge journey and the scientific observations of various mem bers of the party. He says that, unfor tunately, they lost fotir of their eight ponies, which died from eating sand. Murray found an abundance of micro scopic life, rotifera. a division of anlmal culae, etc.. In the fresh water lakes near Cape Boyd. Ringed penguins also were found. The chief vegetation consisted of large sheets of fungusllke plants, many lichens and a few mosses. There was an abundance of seaweed. The au rora borealis displays throughout the Winter were exceedingly brilliant. Professor David considers that most or the Antarctic bergs are of snow. If the Shackleton expedition had reached the South Pole, a dream of navi gators that has inspired many earlier and futile attempts would have been realized. The farthest point south Here tofore reached was 70 degrees 60 min utes, where C. E. Borchgr&vlnk. a Nor wegian explorer, arrived on March 17. 1900. The magnetic position of the South Pole has been fixed, at about lati tude 73 degrees 20 minutes south and 146 east. The lands of the Antarctic regions were first discovered by Captain Cook in 1773 75. He was the first man to circumnavi gate the southern polar continent. Sinca this time and especially ill 1S43 various whaling vessels ventured as far south as possible and reported the discovery and naming of new territory. A French expedition of the Pourquoi Pas, under Dr. Charcot, is at present in tlie Antarctic. Lieutenant Shackleton introduced two Innovations, a specially designed auto mobile for traveling over ihe ice bar- Tiers, and several Siberian ponies.. Representative Citizens Petition Business Blan to Accept Nom- Inatlon Field Entered by Council Candidates. J. N. Fleischner has Joined the will-not be-a-candidate-for-Mavor class. Yester day a delegation of business men, includ- 1 us some oi me neavy taxpayers of the city, called on Mr. Fleischner and urged him to become a candidate for the Repub lican nomination tor Mayor. He was given assurance that should he consent to let bis name be used he would receive iiib nomination or the paftv in the Dri- mary nominating election May 8. Busi ness reasons dictated Mr. Flelschner's declination. 'My business interests occtinv so much of my -time," said Mr. Fleischner last night, "that- it would be impossible for me to accept the nomination and unaslhia election as Mayor for the reason that I could not etve. to ih administration of the city government the time that would be required properly to represent its real lmit. So far as my time will permit for public service, it Is engaged entirely as a meniuer oi uie Board or .Education. For these reasons it is absolutely impossible for me to become a candidate for Mayor at this time. "It will be my intention.' as In the cast as a director of the public school system in mis city, to give the details of that assignment my earnest consideration. I appreciate the solicitude of my friends mac i snoum enter the race for the May oralty, but under the circumstances I feel that I best can serve my business interests and the interests of the mihlln by continuing my work as a member of the School Board." With the retirement of Theodore Tt. Wilcox and Mr. Fleischner. as possible candidates for Mayor, two of the most representative men from the business In terests have dropped from the race. This narrows the contest proportionately so far as probable candidates are concerned.' At the same time it leaves the situation no more settled than it was a week ago or at any other time since the Hucrsrestinn of candidates began. This leaves the field open to the en trance of other candidates from the lead ing business and taxpaylng circles or a selection from among the various candi dates from the same quarter that nave Been suggested. During the last few days some agitation has been started in the. Interest of Councilman George B, Cellars, who may be Induced to become a candi date for the Republican nomination in the fight that must be waged against the Democratic candidate who, it Is 'univer sally agreed, will be Mayor Lane, re gardless of his noncommittal attitude. The activity among the aspirants for nomination to the other municipal of fices is developing daily. City Treasurer J. E.

So saying, Mr. Beckwlth continued his argument by forecasting that all of the 200 lots remaining In Wellesley-om-the- Hill, with the same average maintained for six days more, would be completly sold out.

The Interview with the - Jacobs-Stine Company indicated a demand throughout the State of Oregon for Portland real estate. Letters are constantly pouring in from residents all over the state asking for reservation of lots until such time as the writers may come to Portland and confirm the tentative purchase. While this condition has always followed a Jacobs Stine Company's sale. It is more evident today than ever before. According to a representative of this company.

BECKWITH HAS CHALLENGE Portland Ileal Estate Man Claims Selling: Record TTntil IHslodged. Criticism has been offered relative to the claim of the Jacobs-Stine Company of this city that its Initial sale of lots in Wellesley-on-the-Hill broke the record for the City of Portland and established a mark for the United States. When asked for a. basis for the claim of his com pany, H. G. Beckwlth, of the Jacobs Stine Company fairly bristled with facts and figures to prove the assertions that had been made in the advertising of this firm. "We opened Wellesley-on-the-Hill on the 14th of this month," said Mr. Beck with yesterday afternoon. "We actually sold on that day (Sunday) ll lots. Per sonally. I have every reason to believe that this Is the high-water mark on record in the sale of residence lots. Between Sunday, the 14th. and up to Saturday night one week later, we sold 109 lota.

CHILD COVERED WITH Tormented Two Months It Itched and Irritated and Scratching Made It Worse Little Sufferer in Ter rible Plight Several Treatments of No Avail But at Last the DREADFUL DISEASE IS. CURED BY CUTICURA "My six year old daughter had th dreadful disease called hives for two months. She became affected by play ing with children who had it, although we did not know it. By scratching she caused large sores which were irritating. Her body was a complete sore but it was worse on her arms and back. We em- Sloyed a physician who left medicine ut it did not help her and I tried sev eral remedies but without avail. See ing the Cuticura Remedies advertised, I thought I would try them. I gave her a hot tath daily with Cuticura Soap and anointed her body with Cuticura Ointment. The first treatment relieved the itching and in a short time the dis ease disappeared. I recommend the Cuticura Remedies for all skin diseases and give them my greatest praise. Mrs. Geo. Li. Fridhoff, R. F. D. 1, Warren, Mich., June 30 and July 13, 1908." Boy's Back Raw From Shoulder to Shoulder. .. 'Scratched till Blood Ran. Cured by Cuticura. "My son's back was raw from shoul der to shoulder and the width of your hand. I really did not think he ever would be cured. He would scratch until the blood would run and he was like a raw piece of meat. I used differ ent kinds of things but each kind made it worse until I read of the Cuticura Remedies, and one cake of Cuticura Soap and one box of Cuticura Ointment cured him like magic. . I would not ba without it in the house and I have recom mended it to all my friends. Mrs. J. D. Maxwell, 6th St., Woodside, Long Island, N. T.. May 21, 1908."
