The North Pole, a place with only one direction and one day and one night in a whole year, is the icture Commander Robert E. Peary" .S.N.. recently described to a large audi- ence at Toronto. ‘ . “Though my last venture brought me within 200 miles of the pole,’f said the 'oommander, “my feelings the day we decided to turn back were not at all joyful. When short provisions and hungry men decreed that I shook. go no further, Inwas bitterly disap- ‘p’ointed. -' The explorer went on to describe the voyage, which began from New York in July. 1905, in the specially‘ built steamer Roosevelt. After reach-i ing Cape York, on the northwest coast ‘ of Greenland. Peary steered to a point 350 miles to the westward. It took 18 days to do it,'because the ice was so thick. There the Roosevelt was put into winter quarters and the party continued on over the ice. guided by Eskimos. "Many men,” said Commander ‘ Peary. "confound the North Pole with ‘the magnetic pole. The latter pale is in King William's Land. There, is the greatest magnetic attraction. North of this point there‘are frequent variations of the compass. which can always be adjusted by the same prin- l ciple that a watch or clock would be by one who always knew the exact .time. “To the man standing at the North Pole, every direction but the south would vanish. and there would be no i time except day and night. The days I would be six months in duration. From March 21 until VSe t. 21, there would be continuous lig t, and the rest of the time all would be dark- ness.” ‘ “ ' P,,__J-L “Farthest North" “€35. Nothing unusual would be found at the pole. The only phenomena would be that the heavenly bodies, except the north star, would move in hori- zontal circles. The great darkness which envelopes this country for so long was the great- est obstacle to the explorers. Men had been known to go insane for want of sunlight, in that black waste. For the meat supply, the comman- der relied largely on the Arctic’hare, musk oxen and white deer. The lat- ter were entirely unknown until the last expedition, and then be procured fifty specimens. - , L7: _“.1....1 m (In. Lu by Ewan-van. When the party had reached 87 de- grees 6 seconds north, the nearest to the pole that any man ever got, Peary had to turn back. Supplies were short, so. he began his perilous journey, over cracks in- the ice treacherous stretches. Great storms delayed them, but they finally reach- ed their ship. Musk oxen and hates furnished the principal food. and a few days more on the ice would have seen them with nothing whatever. The commander felt his disappoint- ment keenly. . . However. he cheerfully informed his audience that he would try it again. “Though the temperature is 75, de- grees below zero," he said, "this is not beyond the endurance of a 3 man properly clad. Indeed to me it is not so trying as a wmter in New w â€"-- York or Washington.” Uuuus qu Inn-nu .- -_- of 1893, Canadian and Aniefican seal- ers had agreed not to catch seals be- fore the first__9f Agustin any year; An international agreement to pre- vent the destruction of seal h€rds was urged upon Right Hon. James Bryce and Sir Wilfrid Laurier recently by Joseph Boscovitz of Victoria, 8.0. Under the terms of the Paris Award that they will not catch any seals within the three-mile limit of the Pribyloff Islands and that the use of firearms in the sell fiSheries be ab- solutely prohibited.

They were given until the next day to appoint or elect chiefs. who had the fullest eonfidenceofdthe people. to make the Wuuuuuuv v. m- r , treaty with the commissioner. On the second day when the chiefs approached the white men the spokes- man stopped proceedings by sayi that there was "big cloud. make a dark; not talk to white man to-day." Upon inquiring the meaning it was found that four of their number had been imprisoned for breaking a con- traet With the Hudson Bay Co. The men were graciously released by the governor and the negotiations again went forward. The Indians at first demanded re- serves amounting to about two-thirds of the province of Manitoba. and it required a full day for the commis- sioner to make them understand that they could not have so much terri- tor the mere pleasure of hunt- '0"! ing and fishing.

There is ofic mark which may be made of all this evidence except the ӣde of linen“. Theée witnesses" were cross- eyunned. and they gave evidence WM! rs familiarâ€"which has a \.r\ familiar ring to even person _\\ho is accustomed to be present at criminal trials. If mu Want a datefixod and an hour fixed. they are willing to swear [neithely to the date and hour. although when the cross-exam- ination takes place other dates and other hours, which were just as im portant in the light of the knowledge which they had atbhe time, they cannot remember anything about. 'lhm applies. of course, more panic, ulnrly to the evidence of Mary Mc- Gee and John Doble. It was rather startling to hear those people swear to the hour of the moming and the hour 'of the foronoon. and tin1 hour when this man Game into dinner. and the hour he left the table. andwent out. on a. busy day a month pm- iouS'to the time when they knew that these eveuts were important at 81115 a matter of memory.

There is the evidence of Robert Bryant, however. that I confess is rather difficult to explain. He did not strike me as a man who would willingly perjure himself in a ewe of uris kind. His evidence must stand for What it. is worth, and must be placed in the light of, and over against the evidence put in for the defence. Christie’s own evidence and his wife's I do not care to say much about. I make this remark in pass- ing that they swore they never saw this man Hansenâ€"42h“ he had never been in their whee, and that- they did not sell him native wine. We have 1h° evidence of Abner Bate- man corroborated by his brother. Da- vid, (and I have seldom seen ' wit- nesses in the box who struckme as being So absolutely fair as the Basteâ€" mans and Wriggett, and. Fairbrother) who say that they not only saw Christie sell native wine to Hansen, but that David remarked to Christie that Hansen looked like a detective. It is not possible to believe that Christie could have forgotten mm. But take the evidence on the other sideâ€"leave out the ex'idence of ,the detectives altogether; take the evi- dence of these boys and what stronger evidence could any court ask for. David Bateman fixes the date as the 29th: he is mreful to say that he cannot remember it was the 29th and in» the cam breath gives most con, vincing evidence that, it was the 29th.

'Dhere have been a good many complaints by liquor 1mm and politicians against these men engag- ed in the enforcement of (the License Law.

'I‘he Hansen case is the first in which the liquor man and law breaker has had the handihood! to mm to enforce his complaint, "in a count of law. The result is not surprising. The trial judge makes the expression of his opinion void 0: offence, but, he is plarin enough when he say 3 the bringing of the action was very illadvisod.
