AMERICAN FLAG NAILED TO POLE
T ra c e o f C ook.
New York, Sept. 7.— Peary has
reached the North Pole. It has been
doubly discovered. From the bleak
coast o f Labrador Commander Peary
yesterday flashed the news that he hud
attaned his goal in the Far North,
while at the same moment in Denmark
Dr. Frderick A. Cook was being dined
and lionized by royalty for the same
achievement.
Yankee grit has conqueredjthe frozen
North and there has been created a co-
incidnce such as the world will never
see again.
Two Americans have planted the
flag o f their country in the land o f ice,
which man has sought to penetrate for
four centuries; and each, ignoiant of
the other’s conquest, has sent within a
period of five days, a locoaconic mes
sage of success.
A dispatch from St. Johns, N. F.,
says that Peary found no trace o f Dr.
Cook. This news reached here last
night through Captain Robert Bartlett,
of the Roosevelt, Peary’s ship.
While Peary does not expressly re
pudiate Dr. Cook’s contention in so
many words, his statement may have
an important bearing upon determining
the extent o f Dr. Cook’ s explorations.
The Roosevelt was in good condition
and the crew all right, Captain Bart
lett wired, and he reported that the
schooner Jeannie, carrying supplies for
the expedition, had met them off the
coast of Greenland.

Ottawa, Ont., Sept. 7.— Canada is
extremely anxious to possess a war
fleet o f its own and efforts are being
put forth to induce British shipbuilders
to locate plants on Canadian soil.
It
is said three world famous shipbuilders
are now considering proposals to locate
branch yards in the Dominion and have
been assured that the Canadian govern
ment will grant every concession in the
way of tariff or in any other line pos
sible.
While the Canadian ministers at the

The

Signs multiplied. When Charles and
I returned to the house we found muddy
footprints staining the dining-room door
and tracked across the kitahen. No in
truders were to be seen, nor other evi
dence of their visit, but the mere fact
that the sanctity of my home— hitherto
always left open to the winds— had been
invaded, angered me. I bade Charles see
that the house was securely locked here
after whenever he left It In my absence».
Over the mantel In my den hung two
muskets, out-of-date but still capable of
boring holes in the atmosphere. My little
armory held a shotgun, for use in the
marshes, and two revolvers, whose only
use heretofore had been for target prac
tice. I took them from the drawer and
looked them over; they were ready for
work when needed.
I sat on the porch, and considered the
situation. Something was about to hap
pen, something— I could not tell what—
that centered around this man who had
mysteriously taken possession of the
Ship and proposed to offer combat on
the sands. What he was or who he was I
could not guess ; speculation In these lines
brought me immediately Into blind al
leys ; but there was no doubt that in sit
uation and character he was certainly
the direct descendant of a more adven
turous age. I was unmistakably drawn
to him. I could see him as he stood on
the beach, buffeted by the storm, gazing
nt the men who were pulling away, and
as he had stepped from the hatchway, hat
In hand, bowing to Barbara Graham with
the chivalrous manner of a cavalier, and
again as he sat across the table from me,
his slender hands ready to seize u d o u the
pistols, his eyes, full of amusement and
audacity, looking straight into mine.
There was no doubt about it, the Ship
belonged to him by right of inheritance,
and his arrival had brought me strange
tidings. I thought over the matter a long
time before I went to bed.
Early the next mottling I took my dip
In the sea, and was returning, clad In a
bath-robe, when 1 caught gigiht of a man
peering at me from the pines. I waved
my towel, and he disappeared. As I was
finishing dressing, a little later, I stepped
out upon my balcony, and I saw the same
man, much nearer now, gazing Intently at
the cottage.
I hate spies, so I spoke
somewhat angrily.
“ HI, there!
What do you want?” I
cried, beckoning to him.
He came forward rather sheeplngly,
and touched his bat.
” 1 was only taking a look at your
house, sir.”
"And is that what you were doing some
twenty minutes ago?”
“ Yes, sir ; that’s all I was doing.”
"A re you an architest?” I demanded.
He wore a plain blue suit, with an
old straw hat, and might have been al
most anything.
He smiled. “ No, I was merely look
ing about to see what there was to see.
There wasn't any harm meant.”
“ There isn’t any harm done, but, then,
there isn’t anything to see.
I ’ m not
very partial to sight seers, especially when
they hide behind trees. I f there's any
thing you want to ask me about, speak
aut.”
He hesitated s moment. "A stranger—
a tall man who speaks French— hasn't
•topped at your house, has he?"
“ No. Is he a pal of yours?”
The man grinned. “ Not exactly, Well,
I won’t trouble you any more.
Good
morning.”
A t breakfast I again cautioned Charles
to remember that he knew nothing.
I could do no work In my present state
of mind, so I slung my field-glasses over
my shoulder and went to call on Dupon-
ceau. He was sitting at the cabin table,
breakfasting on the remains of our last
night's sapper. My heart smote me.
“ Why didn’t you let me know? I could
have brought you breakfast.”
" I t matters little; yesterday I obtained
some food from a farmer, but that is too
dangerous.” He Rmiled. “ I ’m quite used
to doing with little.”
1 sat down while he finished breakfast.
After that we walked the short length of
the cabin, Duponoeau asking me a great
many questions about the coast and the
country inland. I told him what I could,
and he seemed satisfied. Then I decided
to take my easel and paints and go up on
the cliff above the Ship to paint. “ I can
keep a good lookout from there of the
farther beach,” I said. “ One can sweep
It thoroughly from the cliff with a pair
of glasses.”
I settled down on the elifT, and for half
an hour forgot everything but the scene
In front of me. At the end of thst time
f looked up the distant beach with my
glasses. Some one was sitting there, half
way up. I studied the figure and decided
that it was a woman, no other than Bar
bara Graham.
Pride is a curious quality. Sometimes
It will not even last overnight. My one
desire now was to have a few words with
Miss Graham, mo I left my easel as It
stood, and went towards her.
She was half lying, half sitting, in the
»oft sand, some of which she had moulded
Into a cushion for her back, and a book
lay open at her side, but she was not
reading. She was gazing at the sea.
“ What do you think of our pirate?”
She started, looked round at me, sat
up. and clasped her knees with her hands.
I sat down on the sand beside her.
“ I was just thinking o f him. I was
thinking that I like him tremendously."
“ Naturally.
He rescued you from a
very disagreeable fellow.”
“ Yes.” she agreed, without looking at
me: “ and a girl can never forget a debt
j f gratitude for that sort of thing.”
“ I must apologize,” I «aid, “ for my
rudeness. Of course h was no business

locket.”
“ O f course not,” she agreed ; “ although
