Roosevelt.
When Commnnder Robert E. 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 barkentlne sailed
early In January from New Zealand
and returned In March, having left
the Shatkelton party camped at the
foot of the Icebergs. 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. The Nlmrod brought back
to New Zealand a tale of disaffection
In the party which resulted In the
resignation of Captain England, the
Nlmrod's skipper, and the ship will
return to the little bank easily In
1909 without him.
Shackelton took with him a spe

number of Siberian ponies, In addition
to a pack of -dogs. Peary will use
only Esqulmos and dogs. The boxes
containing tho supplies aboard the
Roosevelt were so designed as to make
posible the construction of a house
out of them at Cape Sheridan. The
structure will be about 20x60 feet
and will be covered with the Roose
velt's mainsail and that In turn cov
ered with mow. Peary plans to make
his dash for the pole from his base
of supplies In February of next year
and hopes to return to the United
Stntes some time in October.
Before leaving London Lieutenant
Shackelton was presented by Queen
Alexandria With a beautiful flag to
carry with him on his southern dash.
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

EXPLOSION SHAKES
HOMES OF RICH.
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. ' j
, Puzzled About Hay.
S. Q. Moore, erstwhile hay king of
the Naches, thinks the hay situation
this year Is a mighty uneasy one and
rather apprehends it a good thing to
keep one's hands off, says the Yaki
ma Republic. 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

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

Will Bo Hired Soon.
Ellonsburg, Wash., July 16. J. D.
Fogarty, trustee and stockholder In
the Kittitas Oil & Gas company, said
yesterday that after a canvass of the
stockholders of the company, he
could say that within 40 days work
on the oil well already begun by the
company would be resumed and car
ried to completion.
The well was begun two years ago,
but work was stopped because of a
series of suits, which have recently
been decided in favor of men Inter
ested in the company. The well Is
now 330 feet deep and the presence
of both oil and gas has been demon
strated.
"Expert oil men have looked at the
wcl," said Mr. Fogarty, "and all who
have seen it have said that without
doubt oil can be produced In this sec
tion. The results to Ellonsburg of the
discovery, or rather of the actual pro
duction of oil can hardly be overesti
mated. The well Is situated on a 10
acre tract, three and a half miles
south of Ellensburg."
