The Hkrai.d's Special Dispatches.!
Vittsbukg, Feb. 22. Gra,ff, Ben
net cc Co., iron manufacturers, of
this city, assigned to-day. Their
failure is a surprise. In 1883 the
firm failed for about $1,200,000 and
were granted at. extension of ..time .
bmce then they have paid aboul
two-thirds of their indebtedness,
and were supposed to have been
doing well. The cause of their
failure was the investment of tlu ir
profits in the extension of their
plant. No statement has yet been
made, but it is understood that
the secured liabilities are about
$600,000, and unsecured from $600
to .$800,000, the latter consists of
notes for ore and other material.
Among the liabilities is a mort
gage for $450,000, held by the New
York Liie Insurance company, not
3ret due. Assets are believed to be
about $90,000.

The ;reat I-e IM-fiot of the Western
ou!iurut Almost I'nkiiowu.
Minneapolis 'Jilbune.
Giuiruianu, tlic great ice depot
of the Western continent, is almost
as uoknown to-day as when dis
covered by the Norse Vikings, nine
ceutuiies ago . iSays the old riaga
It is impossible tor a man to know
whether the country is large or
small, because mountains and val
leys are covered with ice, and the
ice on laud ami the ice on the sea
form one continuous stretch." That
is true to-day. Americans, Eng
lishmen, Swedes and Danes have
repeatedly attempted to explore
the icy plateau, but have met with
but little success. Professor Nord
eiiskj'iii, tne famous Swedish ex
plorer, who pi: nned and success
fully executed the Vega expedition
through the Siberian Straits, pene
trated 147 miles into the interior j
of the plateau when heading the
second Dickson expedition to j
Greenland, in 1883. That is the
farthest any explorer has reached.
Yet, as Nordenskjoid points out In
his report, act knawledge of the
Greenland lc-i plateau would be oi
inestimable y'ue to the student of
geoiogy and geography.
Mr. Nanseu, an eminent Nor
wegian scientist, now proposes to
Lead another expedition for explor
ing the Greentandish ice desert,
lie intends to utilize the Nor
wegian ski, or snowshoe, as means
of conveyance across the sn;r.v and
ice covered valleys and mountains,
and an excellent ski runner him
self, and taking three or four ex
pert runners with him, expects to
succeed where others have failed.
Contrary to all his predecessors, he
will start from the eastern coast,
not far from the western. The ad
vantage by following the plan is
that he need not cross the ice des
ert more than once. The risk is
that if he does not succeed he may
perish, because there will be no
use retreating to the eastein coast,
where there nre but a very few
Esquimaux lat he could hope to
meet. Instruments and lood sup
plies he proposes to have with him
on small sleighs. An expert ski
runner is able to make 130 to 160
miles in twenty-four hours. But,
making allowance for accidents
and the delays caused by hauling
the sleighs, Mr. Nansen expects to
make the trip from ape Dan (66
degrees latitude) to the Bay of
Disco, on the west coast, in the
seventeen days. Of living scien
tists Mr. Nansen is far the most
qualified to undertake this difficult
task. With the keen eye of a
scientist he combines the physical
strength, elasticity and courage of
the athlete, besides being an expert
in the use of the most practicable
means of conveyances for the pur
pose. His plan is certainly dnring,
and has attracted considerable at
tention in scientific circles in Eu
rope. Norwegian and Danish
papers are fighting over the ques
tion of who shall pay his very mod
est expenses, $1500, both countries
claiming the preference. Perhaps
some great American newspaper
will step in to promptly settle the
dispute. America!) geologists will
probably with the keenest interest
watch for the dariDg explorer to
emerge from the great ice conti
nent of Greenland.

he ( the host ) would take otF all

Yankee kept perfectly still. In

The old adage, 4,No breakfast,
no man," is perhaps as true as in
some form to-day as when first
formulated, although of late years
the ideas of people concerning
breakfast have undergone a radi
cal change. For the laboring man
and for the man of much physical
exercise a heavy breakfast is neces
sary, but for the man or woman of
seelentary habits a light breaksast
is doubtless much better. In any
ase fruit should always be foun'l
at breakfast. Many prefer it after
the meal, out it is not only moi .
digestible but assists the digesti n
more surely if used at the begin
ning of the meal. For a light
breakfast the fruit should be foi-1
lowed by one of the cereris in some
form with cream, which is moie
nourishing than milk, and by
many as easily digested. This,
followed by delicate dry toast or
rolls, with coffee, tea or chocolate,
and perhaps egg in some form,

Books That Have t Helped ine.
W. A. Piatt in the Epoch.
Almost everybody of any liter
ary prominence has lately been
telling somewhere of the""books
that have helped me."' It is about
time, it seems to me, that some -body
should say something about
the "books that have not helped
me." First and foremost, in my
case, I would place Benjamin
Franklin's "Autobiography."' The
main reason this book never helped
me, is because I never read it. If
I had read it, I shonld doubtless
have learned to "stick" type at an
early age; should have spent at the
compositor's case and the reporter's
desk the years 1 tritted away in
college, grubbing at the sciences
and "humanities;'' should have es.
caped seme years of the grind of
s -hool teaching; and should have
become, far sooner tiian new seems
a5 possible, the editor of a critical
journal of my own
I have felt a
sort of personal grievance against
B. Franklin ever since I found out
what his book is like; not because
he wrote it that would not Le
lair or logical but because he did
not leave directions that I should
read it at the proper age. In the
second place, among the books
that have not helped me, peiicuni
arily I mean, I must put the books
I have written. They have never
been published yet, and I am be
ginning to doubt if they ever wi'-l
be.
Another book that did not help
me, pecuniarily or otherwise, was
"Titus Livy," especially the pre
face. Just why they put Fresh
men to reading that abominable
constructed puzzle. I don't know
unless it is to make thorn homesick.
I liked the lost books of Livy bet
ter than any of the rest, because
they did help me to get through,
with the volume.
"Webster's Unabridged Diction
ary"' has never helped me, either,
to any great extent. I never felt
jiat I had money enough at one
time to buy it; the publishers
never sent me one, and I prefer
Worcester's spelling, anyhow.
Two other books that have net
helped me are "Lemeul Barker's
Apprenticeship" and "April Hopes"
except, indeed, as they helped
me to get disgusted with those var
ieties of the human species the
author essays to photograph.
Of course there are plenty of
other books that never helped me
such as the "Proceedings of the
Board of Alderman," the Congres
sional Record and the books in the
British Museum and the Lenox
Library, and other places inacces
sible to a New Yorker; but these
don't couDt. When I set out to
do was to tell of some books that
emphatically and :n some special
way iiave not helped me. If others
will confess as frankly there may
gathered ia time a body of facts
sufficient to form the basis for a
geuersl J nuuetion ; rmel thus we may
get logically at a complete list of
tne"huudred wmst books," which
will be more scientilical i v com
piled thac any of the
best book" lists, and will
as helpful to ti-.i student
'hundred
be luby
and the
general
reader.
