:Tha expedition wax equipped at Glouces
I ter. Mass. All wae ready on the even
ing; of July . 1907. Ashore, boys were
testing their fireworks for the mor
row of celebration, but aboard, as our
jveseeL the John R. Bradley, withdrew
I from the pier, all was quiet. There
j were no visiting crowds of cruloslty
j seekers, no tooting; whistles signalled
:ur departure. An Arctic expedition
:had been born without the usual pub
llc bombast. There was indeed no ex
ruse for clamor. Neither the help of
the Government nor the contributions
of a private individual had been sought.
The project waa quietly given life and
Its expenses- were paid by John R-
' Bradley. Its destiny was shaped by the
' writer.
Seek Both Game and Pole.
Mr. Bradley was Interested in game
animals of the North. I was interested
in the game of the polar quest. For
the time being the business concerned
us only. If the venture proved success
ful there would be time enough to raise
the banner of victory. If It failed, none
had the privilege of heaping upon us
the unmerited abuse which usually
comes to the returning polar traveler.
Aa we headed for the boreal wilds
and plowed with satisfying force the
, chined Northern waters, there was time
: to re-examine the equipment and re
view prospective contingencies of the
campaign. In a brief month all had
bees prepared for the peculiar mission.
We had purchased a strong Gloucester
fishing schooner, fitted with a motor,
covered far Ice and loaded down with
suitable supplies for a prolonged period.
Storm Drives From Cape York.
One morning the bold cliffs of Cape
Tork were dimly outlined in the gray
mist which screened the land. ' A storm
had carried so much Ice against the
coast that a near approach was Impos
sible, and continued winds kept up a
sea which made It equally difficult to
land on the ice.
Though anxious to see the natives at
Cape Tork, we were forced to turn and
set a course for the next village, at
North Star Bay. At noon the sooty
clouds separated and in the north,
through the narrow breaks, we saw the
steep slopes and warm color of crimson
tints resting on the rising water.
Darting through the air were count
less guillemots, gulls, little' auks and
eider ducks.
In Ice-Free Waters.
We were in the Ice-free North waters,
where creatures of the sea find a marine
oasis In midst of a Polar desert. The
coast was about 2000 feet high, evidently
the remains of an old tableland, which
extends a considerable distance north
ward. Here and there were short gla
ciers, which had cut down the cliffs in
their efforts to push to the sealevel.
Beyond the long, straight line of red
cliffs, a conical . rock, the navigator's
sign post, rose from the deep. Soon the
long lcewall of Potowik Glacier rose,
and beyond, to the eastward, we per
ceived the waving white of the overland
sea of Ice which submerges the Interior
of all Greenland. This kind of ' coast
extends Poleward to the land's end. It

HILL TUMBLES IN MUD
Empire-Builder Then Enjoys Hear
ing Chicagoans Opinion of Him.
CHICAGO. Sept. 14. (Special.)
James J. Mill arrived in this city to
day, highly optimistic over the general
crop and commercial' outlook for the
entire country. He felt so spry that
he scorned a cab and started to walk
to his hotel, but he fell into a large
mud puddle befoe he had proceeded
far.
Shaking and wiping off the mud, he
still retained his cheerful frame of
mind and rambled about the streets,
peering at the tall buildings and in
vestigating the displays In the store
windows. Ai nearly every stop two
or more persons would size him up
and remark:
'That looks exactly like the pictures
of James J. Hill. If it Is not Hill, he
has a perfect double."
These references to the close "re
semblance" of himself to himself
amused Mr. Hill very much and he de
voted much time on the journey from
the La Salle Station to the Chicago
Club to permitting people to guess at
his Identity.

In addition to doing her housework

alleges, to assist In cultivating the gar
den, take care of pigs and chickens and
other stock. The only clothing pur
chased for her since her marriage was
a pair of shoes. An order of the court
requires the defendant to appear and
show cause why he should not be re
quired to pay his wife $50 a month ali

ALDRICH TO TAKE STUMP
Boss of Senate Defended From De
tractors Laws for Control of .
(Corporations Need Change.
No Sectionalism.
BOSTON, Mass... Sept 14. President
Taft today began his tour of the coun
try, by coming to this city from Beverly
In an automobile, accompanied by Mrs.
Taft, his daughter and Professor and
Mrs. Louis Moore, and making a speech
at the Boston Commercial Club, which
was devoted mainly to a discussion of
financial reform.
The President revealed that the Mone
tary Commission will recommend the
establishment of a central bank and
that Senator Aldrlch Intends to stump
the country in order to arouse interest
in his plan of financial reform. He also
dwelt on the need of reform in the In
terstate commerce and anti-trust laws
and strongly deprecated sectionalism,
either between East or West or North
and South.
Journey Not for Pleasure.
The President tmld he was going to
take his Western trip because he believed
it would enible him to be a much more
efficient President and make him .better
acquainted with the needs of that great
section. He also outlined some of the
matters to be submitted to the next Con
gress. He said:
I am on the eva of beginning a Journ-sy
of 13.000 miles In length, which will en
able me to see thousands of my fallow cltl
sena and enable them, I hope, to see me.
Oceaslonally I hear a Query why 1 should
start off on such a trip and what particular
good doea It do to- anybody. Well, It cer
tainly Is not going to bo a pleasure trip,
although I shall enjoy It. It will Involve
much hard work and a great deal of mental
effort to think of things to say and to say
them simply and clearly, so that they- can
b understood.
On the other hand It will certainly give
me a very much more accurate Impression
as to the views of the. people In the sec
tions I visit. It will bring closer the needs
of particular sections, so far as National
llglslatlon Is concerned, and I believe It will
make me a wiser man and a bstter publlo
officer.
Bring Better Understanding.
I ought to be able to explain to the peo
ple some of the difficulties of government
and some of the problems for solution from
the standpoint of executive or legislator as
distinguished from that of the honest but
irresponsible critics. The personal touch
between the people and the nan whom they
temporarily delegate to power, of course,
conduces to a better understanding between
them.
This Is the second week In September.
We are all ending our vacations and going
home. This Is the time of year rather than
the Hrst of the calendar year, when good
resolutions ought to be made and kept,
fr nosslble. This is the time when.

In December, one must conoiaer ina ueeus

ATLANTA, Ga., Sept. 14. Theosophy is

the marital trouble which led his wife,

ciety woman of New York. Major Han
son filed his answer today In the Superior
Court of Fulton County. It contains 21
pages of prlntedmatter and denies each
of his wife's charges. In it he says:
"When every effort to force the de
fendant to bear the burdens of theosophy

Brotherhood scheme had failed, the plain
tiff, with one other member of her fam
ily, resolved to attack him In such a way
that public defense would be Impossible

Southern Pacific Board-
KEW TORK, Sept. 14. J. P. Morgan,
Jr.,- was elected today to the late E. H.
Harriman's place on the board of direc
tors of the National City Bank. By Wall
street the election is regarded aa one of
the most significant of the week's finan
cial developments, presumably indicating
that harmonious relations exist between
the Morgan and the Kuhn, Loeb-Standard
Oil group of financiers.
Wide importance was given the event
because it followed closely upon reports
that the Morgan Interests were about to
take an active Interest In governing tho
Harriman roads and that the younger
Morgan was slated as the ultimate suc
cessor of Mr. Harriman in command of
the Union Pacific and Southern Pacific
systems.
Two Great Groups Allied.
The National City Bank is controlled
by the Kuhn, Loeb-Standard Oil inter
ests, wilch yesterday assumed a com
manding position, for the time being at
least, in the Union Pacific executive
committee. George W. Perkins, of the
firm of J. P. Morgan & Co., Is already
a director of the bank and the additional
recognition given the firm today was
taken to mean not merely the existence
of an "entente cordiale" but the consum
mation of an active working alliance be
tween the two great groups of American
financiers.
The commanding position which the
National City Bank Interests now hold
In the Harriman railroads is indicated by
the fact that four of the six members
of the reconstructed executive committee
of the Union Pacific are directors In the
bank Jacob H, Schiff, William rtocke
feller, Frank A. Vanderlip and Henry
C. prick.
Changes on Southern Pacific.
The changes In the Southern Pacific
directorate today as a result of Mr.
Harriman's death were precisely the
same as those made In the Union Pa
cific directorate yesterday. Judge
Lovett succeeded Mr. Harriman as
chairman of the executive committee,
while Jacob H. Schiff and William
Rockefeller were elected directors and
made members of the enlarged execu
tive committee. No action was taken
In the matter of electing a successor to
Mr. Harriman as president.
There were meetings today of the
directors of the Illinois . Central Rail

LOS ANGELES. Cal., Sept. 14. (Spe
cial.) Mrs. Maude Robinson King
Chance,' the protege, wife, then widow
of the rich old man James C. King,
whose mild passion was to give violets
away, has returned to Southern Cali
fornia with a new husband, T. R. Chance.
Her" husband is a dentist well known In
the fashionable "American Colony" of
Paris. After the death of the "Violet
King" the executors had the audacity to
offer the young widow a mere 1100,000 as
her share but she sternly demanded
$1,400,000 more and got it. She had been,
as a young girl, of Morrison, 111., and
old James C. King had taken a platonlc
and fatherly Interest in her. She be
came the "Violet Queen." with an agree
ment that she was to have $100,000 at
his death, which agreement she after
ward repudiated. The estate settled her
claim, giving her half the fortune.
In Paris she met Dr. Chance who had
torn himself away from the bucolic fasci
nations of Canton.' O., for the larger
friends and the richer tooth of the Amer
ican Colony of France.
They were married there recently and
arrived a week ago In San Francisco to
the astonishment of the late "Violet
King's" friends.
