The Windward Arrives at North Sidney--All Well on Board-- Open Lakes and Ice Floes Encountered. North Sydney, C.B., Sept. 1S.--As a result of the news wired to Herbert Bridgeman, secretary of Peary"s Arc- tic Club, from the government station in Labrador, it was estimated thdt « arrival here should take place same time last night, and as a result she was hourly expected. The Wind- ward, however, did not appear on her return from the frozen north till near- Iy~ eight o'clock this morning, when <he was sighted off Low Point light. By- nine o'clock she was sailing up the 'harbor of Sidney; by ten she had dropped at the railway wharf, Sidney. and was quickly boarded by the re- presentative of the press on her way up the harbor. . Peary's manager, Mr. Bridgeman, had gone out into the water tug and learned from the explorer himself the first news of the latest trip in search of the apparently unattainable pole. When Peary stepped irom the Wind- ward to the wharf no one would have supposed, that he had, unaccompanied by another white man, braved a win- ter in the realm of the everlasting snows of the midnight sun. His © was bronzed indeed; but he looked the picture of a man in the prime of life, slightly weather beaten, but appar- ently, at the next moment ready, i need be, to make another dash for the pole. He was delighted, of course, to hear of all the news of the civilized world, the coronation of Ring Edward of England, the 'close of the Boer war and the great strike among the coal | miners in America. The Windward is piled up with curi- from the land of the Esqui and there are a number of the dogs on hoard, sonie of which have heen "employed by" Peary in carrying burdens over the ice bound fields. The dogs are remarkable for their intelli- gence and are greatly attached Le Peary, his wife and 'daughter. The Windward leit Sidney for Green- land on /Sunday, July, 13th, of this vear. lt was about this time last that the Peary Arctic Club's re- steamer the Erik, with Bri on board as commodoré, return ed to North Sidney, bringing Mrs. Peary' and daughter with news that the bold explorer himself had decided to pass last winter at Etah, North Greenland, that at the first approach' of the Arctic spring he might he at the base of his further operations, The Ticcoverer has now been in the Polar regions since he went - north in the Windward in the early spring of 1900, Mr. Peary gave the following inter- view : "Having Irik Harbor, on the Illesmere on August 20th, reached Payer Harbor on Sept. 16th, | -- osities maux, year lief mean left coast woe crossing Rose Bay by sledge and boat about a week later.

These now dot the plains where two years since there was no militia force at all outside of Winnipeg, Brandon, and Portage la Prairie. No attempt is to start with a large establish- ment. Fifty men each is the rule.
