Kelly's organ in New York makes ono
good observation on tho independent

conducted entirely by officers, with no

thcro is no question that Geogo William

Chicago to explain to him the meaning
of the tariff plank in their platform. It

It is stated that the Northern PaciGc
railroad company sent an agent to Hong
kong to see how much business could be
obtained for a proposed line to run to
Portland or Fuget sound, in connection
with the Northern Pacific. Upon a fa
vorable report it is claimed that a suffi
cient capital was raised in London to es
tablish tho enterprise. For the present
the company will charter a few ocean
"tramps" in and about Hongkong, and
-will probably ship their first cargo of tea
early this month. It is claimed that the
route to New York via Portland and
Chicago bcingmuch shorter, all tea trade
must come by the new route.

death, as her health began to fail soon
after, and continued until her death. No
two physicians could agree as to the
cause of her sickness, and ono eminent
physician from Chicago declared that it
was cancer of tho stomach, and then
. Bright'a disease, etc. She was taken to
various health resorts, but all to no
avail, and was finally taken back to
Baraboo to die. The case being such a
singular one, tho physicians of Baraboo
all joined in the request to be allowed
the privilege of a post-mortem ex
amination, which was granted, and to
their surprise they found the cause of
her death was fragilitas ossium, or
fragile bones, they having lost both the
earthy and organic matter contained in
them, and could be crushed by the
pressure of the hand as a ltandful of
crackers, the largest of the bones hav

Mrs. Jane Gray Swisshelm, who
died a few days ago, was one of
tho most remarkable women America
has ever produced. She was born in
Pittsburg, near which place she died, in
1815. Before she was 25 years of age
Bhe began to wrilo and lecture in favor
of the abolition of slavery and in behalf
of woman's rights. She also originated
the agitation which secure to married
women in Pennsylvania the right to
hold real estate in their own names. In
1848 she began tho publication of the
Pittsburg Saturday Visitor, which was
ono of the most aggressive journals of
tho day. In 1850 she went Washington
and waa the first woman to sit in tho
reporters' gallery of the house. Sho
claimed the credit of killing Daniel Web
ster as a public man. In 1857 Jlrs.
Swlsehelm went to St. Paul, Minn.,
wliero sho started a paper that she call
ed tho St. Cloud Visitor. She fought for
abolition, then unpopular in tliat state,
and was notified to quit, but refused,
aad her office was mobbed and every
thing destroyed. A company was form
ed which again put tho paper on its feet.
Subsequently sho started tho St. Cloud
Democrat. When tho Lincoln campaign
commenced alio spoke lor him and
wrote for him. When the rebellion
broke out she was lecturing and address

last fallowing upon tho Jeannotlo

telcneo nro nuking what good la to bo ac
complished by such expeditions aa that
ledbyGrccly, or tho many others that
navo entailed great suffering and the loss
ot life In tho northern ono. It la true.
so far, polar expeditions haw been at
tended with disaster and with no return
or edentate discovery that compensates
tno world for tho expenditure of synv
pathy It has been called upon to maul
lest for every polar expedition that
has attempted to solve tho mysteries
of tho far northland. But for all
that, with tho protest of tho world
against a repetition of tho attempt
to eoho what secma to bo the
unfathomable mysteries of tho north,
and In spito of tho example afforded by
tho failure of ever)' expedition so far,
thcro will bo other adventurous spiriU
who will continue tho search In frozen
seas, and other tragedies will be record
ed in connection with polar explora
tions. Thero is no reason why this
should not bo so. This world orglobo of
ours is a very small fragment of tho unl
verso, aftor all, and circumscribed rmd
limited In our Boarch for knowledge by
its area, It would seem that no portion
of it should remain unexplored or con
tinue unknown to us with tho secrets it
may have, which revealed may benefit
science, or at any rnlo give satisfaction
from knowing just what wo do not know
now. Despite tho utter barrenness of
the polar regions and tho suffering at
tending every expedition that has
sought to peuctrato or le.irn the mys
terics of its barriors, tlioro Is a fascina-
tion about tho great unknown region of
tho arctic and antarctic zones that will
urge men to renewed clforts i,t explora
tion, which, wo believe, in tne ond will
culminate in making them no longer
terra incognita. Explorers who have
been shipwrecked and who have Buffer
ed to tho verge of starvation in tho polar
regions, havo returned to renew their
researches, in spito of tho little accom
plished, the loneliness of this region of
death and a rcnowal of the SMficrings
that hilfl lufnm luifnllnn ilion Wit),
that had before befallen themr With
such examples of n determination to
wrest from the frozen zone its secrets, if
it havo any, wo can expect new cxihhII
tions to bo fitted out, and other accounts
of Bufferings equaling tho deprivations
of the Do Long or Greely expeditions.
But just here, if these polar expeditions
are to bo continued, as wo know they
will be, it would seem that experience
In polar explorations should bo as profi
table and conducive to success as ex
perience is supposed to Iks in any other
undertaking In hfo. Tho Grcoly expedi
tion, however barren it may bo regarded
of satisfactory results, affords an experi
ence when contrasted with other polar
expeditions, that ought to servo and aid
toward attaining tho end, tho discover
of the north polo. For two years Lieu
tenant Greely held his command to
gether without loss of life, or disease;
s'd then marched them over glaciers,
iw" and snow, across a rugged country,
eruo nines, wiuiout. loss 01 1110 or a
MK of sickness. Then, owing to the in
capacity of the officers sent to his relief,
or lor somo oilier reason, lie lound no
supplies where they should have been ;
and ho and his command began starving
to death, ono by ono dying. Lieutenant
Greely's command was housed at Lady
Franklin bay, on shore, and wintered
for two years in the highest latitude ever
man lived, and withal without sickness,
Bcurvy or any other disease, and ho and
the other scientists were able to take
continued observations during this
period. Not only this, but they made
moro extended explorations than were
ever prosecuted, 2500 miles in all being
covered by their explorations from Lady
Franklin bay, and moreover, thoy went
further north than man had ever trod.
These expeditions or explorations from
their headquarters were conducted with
out loss of life, accident or sickness ; and
taking everything into consideration, the
Greely expedition has demonstrated
this tact: that if the north pole is to be
reached, and ita frozen secrets are to bo
learned and recorded, it can. only Iw
done by tho method tliat established
Greely's colony at Lady Franklin bay.
His should not havo been tho only col
ony established, but others along his
line of retreat 100 miles apart should
have been located up to the point where
succor from tho sea could reach them at
any season of tho year, and then his re
searches could havo continued with tho
certainty of rescuo or relief. Colonies
located after this plan may be the means
of solving the mysteries 01 tne north,
but it would seem in no other way may
It over be expected to find what may be
beyond tne open roiar sea 01 w men ma
ny explorers have written. Heretofore
polar explorations have been conducted
from vessels, and these, subjected to
the perils and uncertainties of ice-packs
and dependent upon an open sea, have
dono little, while expeditions from them
across tho ice or land, of course, have
had to be short in time and distance,
becauso there was no certainty about
wliero the headquarters would ho if tho
time of absence wore prolonged cr tho
distance traversed made great. If tho
firffilv exnedition is barren of great re
sults, and that we can hardly know until
wo aro made acquainted with his official
report, it has dono this much: It has
demonstrated a leamuie wuy, ukuiv, w
getting to the north polo, and that Is by
establishing and acclimating colonies in
tho polar region, in supporting dlsUnce
of each other, down to a latitude where
access can bo had by a vessel in any but
an unusual year.
Life at the Poles.
As barren and destitute of tho means
of sustenance as Lieutenant Grcoly found
tho polar region, thero Is a well defined
theory among scientists that life began
at tho poles. The theory U that the
pole were first fitted to produce life,
which cowseqaently began at tho north
ern and southern extremities of the
crfobo. developJn Independently, but to
a eertais exteat ccjefeMilBly( a the I
conditions wore similar. By ttio secular
cooling of the earth tho poles finally Ims
came unlllted to support life, and Mich

courms of years, and ultimately giving
rlso to a fauna which over tho most of
the clobo consists of n mixture of north'
ern and southern forma. Many fads
derived from tho northorn hemisphere
lend support to this theory, and tho
Bouthorn hemisphere Is adding facta to
confirm tho theory. Tho animals of the
northern liomlnphoro aro nlutout tdcntl

The Man Who Was Neareit the North

For about three centurion the hardy
navigators of Great Britain maintained

exploration the furthest. In 1870 Com

true, and of no Importance geographical

man and his country. Thero may lie
but a noxo difference between the first

with his nose ahead is tho winner, and
tho glory and tho lienor of the achieve

First Lieutenant James II. 1xikwood
died of starvation In the dreary wilds of
tho north, and his countrymen's gratifi
cation in liis great exploit is saddened
by his shocking fate. He was horn nt
Annapolis, Md., in 1852, and was the
son of General Henry II. Lockwood.
w ho was professor of mathematics and
Instructor In military tactics in that city
at tho time of hiu birth. During the war
his father was a commanding officer in
tho field, and while on duty in the cam
paign in Virginia was accompanied bv
Ids sou. then a mere boy. After tho war
lioncral Lockwood settled at George
town, now known as West Washington,
nnd his son was a student nt George
town college. Muusequeniiy no was a
cadet at W est Point, and was graduated
from that institution. Attliengu of 21
young i.ocKwoou waa apiotntcd n sec

United States Infantry. Shortly after
this he was sent into acme service in
the west. Ho continued to lie thus en
gaged for sc chil jears, during which
he performed severe duty in Arizona.
Colorado and the Indian territory, and
became distinguished among his fellow
officers for his courage and love of ad
venture. When the Greely expedition
was being organized he expressed tho
desire to becomo one of its members.
Permission was granted him, nnd he
sailed in July, 1831, with Lieutenant
Greely nnd tho rest of his party, in the
"Proteus." His promotion to tho rank
of first lioutcju ir.t was gazetted in March
of the present year, about 11 month bo-
.'jio his death. He was the third man of
the expedition who succumbed to tlju
hardship and deprivation w Inch robbed
America ol some 01 her noblext sous.

Tins was the result of a heroic attempt
to secure, in company with Itlce, the
