Peary beards his steamer, The Roosevelt, at Sydney, Cape Breton, this week, and starts on his expedition in search of the north pole, an international race to the uttermost ends of the earth will be on, Peary hopes to curry the stars and stripes to the north pole, while a British antarctic expedition, com manded by Lieutenant Ernest H. Shuekelton, Is trying to place the Union Jack of the British empire at 90 degrees south. Although the Brltleh expedition has a year ad viintngc In point of time, Peary hopes to win the race. Shackelton and his party left London on July 30, 1907 on board the N'lnirod, originally Newfoundland sealing vessel of 227 ions, nut which had been rentted as a pteam barkentinc. Shackelton Is an officer of the navy and before leaving Londan, King Edward be stowed Upon him the Victorian Order, He was a member of the British ant arcuc expedition or under Captain Scott and with his coinman der and another member of tho party accomplished a Journey with dogs to a point 82 degrees 17 minutes south lutltudu during which they were ab sent from their ship, the Discovery, 93 days and covered a distance of 960 miles. Peary reached 87 degrees minutes north on April 21. 190G. The Nlmrod's crew all told number ed 32 men, Including several scientists, but the landing party was to consist of but 12 men.

The party took with them materials for wooden buildings with double doors and win dows to be lined with felt and several Inches of granulated cork. Provisions and supplies for a long stay were landed.

About the same time the Daughters of the American Revolution gave Commander Peary a beautiful flag made of silk and consisting of the stars and stripes surrounded by a broad field of white to carry with him to the north pole. On the day the Roosevelt left New York. William O, McDowell, the founder, of the society of the Daughters of the American Revolution, handed Peary a letter from Emily B.

Occupants Hurled Front Their Beds at an Early Hour. New York, July 16. A dynamite bomb exploding with terrific force early today In the areaway of a fash lonable apartment house In West M9th street, hurled the occupants from their beds, shattered many win aows and tnrew tne tenants into a panic. A huge hole was torn In the floor of the court where the bomb went off, ana consiaeraoie otner damage was done to the building. The only clue that the police have Is one furnished by a bell boy of a near by apartment house. He said that Immediately before the explosion he was sitting on the front steps and saw- three men pass. They were carrying a bundle and walked in the direction of Watts court, where the bomb later exploded. vThe boy did not see the men enter the building as an express wagon shut off his view, but a moment later he heard the crash of the explosion, the force of which threw him from his chair, and an Instant later three men ran swiftly down the street. Almost directly across the street from Watts court Is the old Watts manor house, which Is occupied by Mrs. Mary B. Plnckney, 90 years old, one of the heirs of tho Watts estate. The block In which the explosion occurred Is occupied by a number of high-class apartment houses. Detec tives working on the case say they have no cluo to the perpetrators, and that If It proves to be a.n attack by members of the Black Hand It will be the first of the kind In New York di rected toward the wealthy class of residents.

He says he can figure out good reasons why hay should bring a strong price later on but he can also figure out many reasons why It should not and one of the big rea sons which make all reasoning faul ty s one he terms TTaft andBryan." Those two, ho says, have more to do with hay than many Imagine. Mr. Moore says that while there has boen Bald a great deal about hay being a partial crop this year he knowB of a great many hay growers who are cut ting more per acre than they have for a; considerable time. He thinks, in a general way, the crop will be much larger than is anticipated. He thinks also that the question of the home and the Seatle consumption Is prob lematical while the export business Is classed as a steady thing. From the ease with which he can buy baled hay at a low figure right now Mr. Moore believes there must be AMIR MY will be given absolutely free to any boy securing subscriptions to the Daily East Oregonian, delivered by carrier V..;-- MS:: w ' L' 'V'"w Here's your chance to get a large, interesting and beautifully illustrated Boys Magazine without any cost to you whatever.
