FUNDS iW DELAY PEARY'S VOYAGE

Still Lacks $5,000 Before He Can Leave for the North Pole.

HE MAY START MONDAY.

STAUNCH OLD SHIP ROOSEVELT SCHEDULED TO SAIL MONDAY MORNING HOPES TO REACH COVETED POINT.

New York. July 2. Commander Robert E. Peary, the Arctic explorer, will make another attempt to find the north pole. The stanch steamer Roosevelt, built for him by tho Peary Arctic club, which carried him and his little party to the far north on the latest expedition, will cast off her moorings at the foot of East Twentyfourth street on Monday and begin her northward voyage. Commander Peary will not leave New York with his ship, but will go by rail to join his party at Sydney, Cape Breton. The explorer had planned to have his ship leave New York yesterday, but the uncertainty of raising the $50,000 necessary to finance the expedition caused the delay. All but $5,000 of the fund required has been obtained and he is hopeful of raising the amount before he leaves the city. During the day supplies were taken abroad and stowed away in the steamer's hold. The Roosevelt has been thoroughly overhauled and a picked crew of hardy Newfoundlanders with Capt. Robert A. liartlett of Rrigus, Newfoundland, as sailing master, are awaiting the signal to start. A collier will accompany the Roosevelt as far north as Etha, where Peary's coal depot was located during the previous expeditions. Peary's plan for this expedition, aside from his expectation of placing the stars and stripes at the north pole Include researches into the north coasts of Greenland and Grantland. He will follow practically the same route he did on his previous trin, but his tactics will be different. He will utilize the "drift method" so that the moving Ice will not carry him beyond

the line of his goal. Eskimos and dogs will be taken aboard in the whale sound region as before and Commander Peary will endeavor to force the Roosevelt to the same or similar quarters on the north side of Grantlsnd as in the winter of 1905-06.

Affairs of the Sporting World

The Chicago Cubs showed their true form yesterday, out classing the Reds. The Cubs ran bases on McLean like wild men. "Soxy" Lyons Is a heavy favorite as umps in the I. O. leasue. Wait until some day he makes a miscue against either Huntington or Van Wert, then it will be the washboiler and the sleighbells for Soxy. Nat Fleming is pitching for the Nebraska Indians. Sunday he will twirl for his team in Cincinnati. This in-

The English papers are scolding King Ed's subjects because they have declined to subscribe to the Olympic games entertainment fund. Wow, what a howl would be raised if the games were to be held here and T. Roosevelt's pals would padlock their purses. It has been announced that Rube

It is also reported that the Giants have purchased Catcher Meyers of St. Paul, the price being $6,000. James R. Keene's star performer, Ballott, won an $11,750 purse yesterday at Sheepshead Bay and incidentally established a new record for a mile and five-sixteenths, stepping the distance in 2:09 3. Pitcher Gene Moore of South Bend, formerly of Richmond, celebrated his return from the bench by beating Terre Haute 13 to 2.

whose love of the national pastime got the better of their business judgment. The Clevelands now lead in the American league race. About half of the Naps regulars have at one time or the other since the opening of the season been out of the game but the Frenchman and his crew keep right on winning. Turner and Flick are out of the game at present. Greensfork now has a salaried team and it is said to be one of the fastest outfits in the country. Games will be played at Greensfork Saturday and Sunday. Tom Plummer was released by

Washington, July 2. Postmaster General Meyer has signed a fraud order denying the use of the mails to the Webster Detective Agency and H. C. Webster of Indianapolis. The inspectors who investigated the case stated that Webster advertised throughout the country for "shrewd

reliable men, wno were wanted in every locality to act under orders; no experience necessary." To those who responded, the inspectors stated, Webster mailed certain literature, including an application blank, a letter in imitation of typewriting, and a pamphlet entitled "Webster's Detective Agency Official Directory of Information." In the literature Webster asserted his agency was the leading one in the United States and he promised applicants who Qualified work at the rate of $4 to $5 a day, and to aualify all it was necessary for them to do was to subscribe for the Detective World,

a publication conducted by Webster. According t& the report Webster has in the past conducted three other detective agencies. The postmaster at Indianapolis states that Webster has received about 300 letters a day.

WASHINGTON DOES NOT FAVOR MICTION Wants Colored Man to. Do Things in World.

Cleveland Ohio, July 2. "I'm a negro, and Im proud of my race, and I don't want the negro to become extinct," declared Booker T. Washington, foremost negro educator, when asked his opinion of a Cleveland negro's theory of the black's extinction. Charles W. Chestnutt has advanced

the theory that, after a century or more of intermarriage with whites, the race prob' m will have solved itself by the extinction of the black. "I don't agree with Chestnutt." said Washington. "I wouldn't wish Chestnutt's solution to be so if it were possible. I don't want to see the negro fade. I want to see him do things that will cause the whole race to arrive at a different status than at present. And the negro is doing these things now."

Two rival baseball teams composed of local ministers, played baseball yesterday afternoon at Glen Miller park. Ater two fiercely contested innings ihe game was called on account of supper. It was just as well that supper was called when it was, because it would probably have taken a week to play nine innings and, horrors, upon horrors, every week contains a Sunday. One of the teams was captained by the Rev.. Napoleon LaJoie Traum, while the other one was led to a 12 to U voictory by the "Peerless Leader," the Rev. Captain Frank Chance Graham. The feature of the game was the batting of the Rev. Hans Wagner Campbell. In the first inning he came to bat twice and each time leaned against the spitball hurled by Cap Graham and smote the sphere into the jimpsons for four bags. Last year the. Rev. Campbell was the leading batter In the Epworth League. President Kelly in right field for the winners, furnished the spectacular feature of the games. He had eleven putouts to his credit, but his finest piece of work was jumping into the hear pit and nailing a sure a home run off the bat of the Rev. Richmond Pearson Merrimac Hobson. President Kelly, is claimed, is a relative of the late lamented "Home Run Mike" Kelly. Catching fly balls in bear pits is one of the easiest things he does, it is stated, and near relatives of the diamond hero immortalized by DeWolf Hopper. The following Is the lineup of the two reverent outfits: The Losers. Rev. Hobson, center field. Rev. Traum, pitcher. Rev. Campbell, third base.

After the ball game the ministers fell upon a supper furnished by their admiring friends and relatives of the fair sex.- We have neglected to state that at the ball game the score, peanut and pop privileges were in the efficient hands of the Revs. Hughes, Harrison, Jay, Parker, Winters, Huntington and Keates.

THE HUMAN TONGUE.

Several important changes among officials of the engineering department on the Pennsylvania lines west of Pittsburg, were made yesterday. The office of freight traffic manager has been created and James P. Orr has been appointed freight traffic manager; John J. Koch, division freight agent, taking the position of general freight agent, succeeding Mr. Orr; J. B. Lippincott, Panhandle division freight agent succeeds Mr. Koch, and James E. Weller, district solicitor, becomes division freight agent. The many radical measures recently adopted by the Interstate Commerce Commission and different traffic associations have so increased the work in the department as to make it necessary for William Hodgdon, freight traffic manager, to have an assistant.

lt It Very Inquisitive, With a Strong Will of Its Own. The curiosity of the tongue does not cause the human being so much trouble as the curiosity of the eye, but the tongue, within its limits, is the most curious of all. Let the dentist make a change In the mouth, let him remove a tooth or replace with his admirable artifice one that has long been absent, let him change the form of a tooth by round Jjg off a corner or building up a cavity, and see what the tongue will do. It will search out that place, taking careful and minute account of the change. Then it will linger near the place. If it Is called to other duties, It comes tack as soon as they are discharged and feels the changed place all over again, as if it had not explored and rummaged there already. It makes no difference that these repeated Investigations presently cause annoyance to its supposed master, the man. The tongue in nothing more than la this matter proves that it is an unruly member and will not be controlled. It seems to have an original will and consciousness of It own. and nothing will serve it except the fullest satisfaction of its curiosity. It will wear Itself out. perhaps, but It will find nnt n
