Philadelphia, Feb. 23.—According
to a statement issued today by the
Philadelphia Rapid Transit company,
the amount of damage done today and
the number of assaults committed by
mobs were greater than on any prev­

Two hundred and ninety-five cars

Jules Verne’s thrilling and fasci­
nating romance, "'Finding the North
Pole,” is one of the great literary
masterpieces, and should at this
time be of particular Interest In
every home. Verne wrote it more
than a generation ago, as a story,
a thing of fiction. But It has com#
true on him. Just as his “Twenty
Thousand Leagues Under the Sea”
came true In the submarine, and
his “Round the World in 80 Days”
has been shown easy of accomplishment. But none of this famous
and gifted French romancer’s creations has been borne out so fully,
so much In detail, as his “Finding the North Pole” 35 years after
he wrote it. As in the controversy betwen Commander Peary and
Dr. Cook, there is a fight In
Verne’s story between two rival
explorers for the glory of finding
the pole. In the end, as in the
present case—well you’d better
read the story.
The novel describes—vividly,
as only Jules Verne can—the
hardships and dangers of polar
exploration, and makes clear to
the readers with what bitterness
one explorer, who has overcome
all hardships of nature, will re­
gard a rival explorer who threat­
ens to snatch from him the
glory of realizing his life desire.
There is a surgeon in this story,
the efficient aid to ths chief of
the party, just as Dr. Cook was
Peary’s brave and efficient aid
before their friendship was

broken.
In rapidity of action and tenseness of interest, this old story
of the great French romancer Is not excelled by anything he
himself wrote, and by few stories of adventure w ritten by
others.
