Following the example of his I forefathers he early took to a seafaring life. As an officer he accompanied I the Belgian South Pole expedition of 1 1892. oo board the Belglca. Six years later he started on his famous voyage to the Arctio regions. The trip was xnade In a little whaling ship of 46 tons, with a chew of only seven men. ,Tbe voyage occupied three years and was one of the most successful from a dentine viewpoint ever made to the far north. Captain Amundson not only succeeded in sailing through the Northwest Passage, a feat which had never been accomplished before, but he located the magnetic north pole, and otherwise gathered much scienti- . ic Information !n regard to the little known regions beyond the Arctic circle.

The Insurgents and Reciprocity Congress has been in session for more than three months and still seems to find plenty of excuses for not enacting the Canadian reciprocity bill. The senators who have been occupying themselves with the hopeless task of trying to amend the measure are persistently blocking the road being traversed by the measure. Richmond Evening Item. The Insurgents have not been having as happy a time lately as they had two years ago. In connection with the commonly assigned reasons for the lapse in their popularity, some things ought to be said. In the first place, not all the Insurgents have opposed reciprocity; they divided about half and half, and the stronger men of the movement in the Lower House, men like Murdock and Madison, voted in favor of it. Moreover, what the Insurgent Senators in the Senate have done will be seen a year from now in a clearer and more favorable light. They have postponed reciprocity a few weeks, but they have brought general tariff revision many months, probably years, nearer. Mark Sullivan in Collier's Weekly.

We call the attention of the Item to this statement of the case from Collier's Weekly. Collier's has been for the reciprocity measure consistently all the spring and summer. But Collier's has recognized what very many people have not recognized that the insurgent senators are really fighting for a matter of principle and that they are doing something for the country which the country may not recognize now but will be forced to recognize afterward. They have insisted that the iniquitous woolen, steel, meat, silk and cotton schedules shall be revised and not left standing as they were framed in the Payne-Aldrich tariff bill. In this they are fighting for precisely the same thing that they fought for two years ago they are attacking the same schedules. And mind you this. is not by way of asking Canada to do more it is by granting Canada more to which she can certainly not object were it true that this is a treaty and can not be amended. It is a fact that this had to originate Jn the house of representatives In quite the same way as any revenue or tariff bill. There is no more obligation that the Canadian reciprocity bill will be adopted by the Canadian parliament than there is that the Senate bias to pass it. This Is a myth which has been persistently circulated by sources friendly to the president. It Is simply the clinching step in the deliberate attempt of those special interests and their agents like Aldrich to frame up a trap "to put the Insurgents In a hole." The fact of the matter is that the reciprocity agreement is a far different thing from the common idea of reciprocity. It is a very lopsided arrangement containing much of good for institutions such as there are in Richmond which might be forced to build In Canada. The community here would suffer to some extent if the energy which might be expended in growth here were divided. Such agricultural factories as the Hoosier Drill and the two threshing machine Industries will be the sort of factories to proit. But even these factories are suffering more with the competition of what rivals they have than from the existing condition of the tar!ff. We have a feeling that Industries of this sort are worth building up for the communities in which they exist but that they are hardly comparable to the beef trust and the American Woolen company and the other great Industries that have formed monopolies in this country that might have some effective competition if the tariff bars were let dowTi. The Item will have some difficulty in telling the people of this community that the reciprocity arrangement unamended will have any effect on . the cost of living. Senator Cummins (whom the Item so calls to account) explained that so precisely in his speech that It may have had some relation to the statement of the President on July 4th at Indianapolis that there would be no great change in the cost of living if at all. We believe that every truthful newspaper that is for the reciprocity measure should give the truth of this matter to the subscriber so that he may not expect any change in the cost of his living from the widely heralded reciprocity bill. As for the praise bestowed upon the "regular Republicans" for "deferring a general tariff revision" until the tariff board reports we shall wait and see whether the special interests and the tory newspapers do not also applaud vigorously. Merely out of curiosity we should like to know whether the Item is progressive or standpat or simply misinformed that it should denounce Cummins and LaFollette for objecting to the same things in this reciprocity measure for which the Item has always praised them and still praises them, namely in 1909 when they voted against the iniquities of the PayneAldrich tarifT bill. If the Item believes that their reasons are being withheld from the public it may find them in the Congressional Record.

GATES' WONDERFUL BATTLE FOR LIFE (National Newa Association) Paris, July 15 The marvelous constitution of John W. Gates is enabling him to make a wonderful battle against death. While his condition was very low this morning with ominous heart symptoms, his great recuperative powers gave encouragement to members of his family. His son, Charles Gates, said: "Father is slightly Improved and our hopes are rising." THE CAMERA OBSCURA. From It VYas Evolved Our Modern Photographic Apparatus. The camera whs invented by an Italian named Baptista Porta, though it was not at first used for photographing. It was in reality merely a dark room, Into which the light was admitted through a little round bole in oue side. The rays of light coming from objects outside of this room entered It through this aperture and made a picture on the other side of the room glowing in all the beauty and color of nature itself, but rather Indistinct and upside down. This dark room was contrived by Porta about the middle of the sixteenth century. lie Improved it later by placing a glass lens in the aperture and outside a mirror which received the rays of light and reflected them through the lens so that the image upon the opposite wall within was made much brighter, more distinct and in a natural or erect position. This was really the first camera obscura, an Invention which is enjoyed to the present day. Now our modern photographic camera Is merely a small camera obscura In ita simplest form, carrying a lens at one end and a ground glass screen at the other. It is, however, often much more complicated in its construction. "THIS DATE

HAYTIAN PRESIDENT MUST LEAVE POST

(National News Association) Santo Domingo, July 15. The overthrow of President Simon of Hayti is practically assured as the result of the complete rout of the army commanded by him in person by a rebel force, according to dispatches received today from Cape Haytien. The entire northern end of the "black republic" is in revolution and government trops are reported to be going over to the rebels in large numbers. ROMANCE QF ARCHITECTURE. Origin of tha Graceful Corinthian Style of Capital. In the winter a young girl had died In Corinth. Some time afterward her maid gathered together various trinkets and playthings which the girl had loved and brought them to the girl's grave. There she placed them in a basket near the monument and put a large square tile upon the basket to prevent the wind from overturning it. It happened that under the basket was a root of an acanthus plant. When spring came the acanthus sprouted, but its shoots were not able to pierce the basket, and accordingly they grew around it, having the basket in their midst. Such of the long leaves as grew up against the four protruding corners of the tile on the top of the basket curled round under these corners and formed pretty volutes. Kallimachos. the sculptor, walking that way one day. saw this and, immediately conceived the notion that the form of the basket with the plaque on top of it and surrounded by the leaves and stalks of acanthus would be a comely heading for columns in architecture. He from this idea formed the beautiful Corinthian style of capital. Such, at least, is the story as the architect Vitruvius told it 1.900 years ago. IN HISTORY"

Heart to Heart Talks.

By EDWIN A. NYE. Copyright, 1908. by Edwin A. Nye DIED AT HER. TUB. Motherhood: How its deathless, gentle spirit runs through all the sex, from the bird mother that feeds her brood and fights for It to the human mother who loves her own and sacrifices and dies-for it! An instance: The hardworking husband of a Newark (N. J.) woman died, leaving her to support six small children. Friends advised her to part with some of them, but the Indomitable mother spirit refused, so she took in washing. Day after day she toiled at her tub, and far into the night she bent over her Ironing board. The oldest boy called for and delivered her work. And thus she kept the wolf from the door. Others pitied her, but a be went Joyously to her hard daily task, for it , was reward enough that she was able 1 to provide for her dependent offspring. But gradually this brave mother broke down. There were days of cruel pains, days of weakness and weariness. There were nights in the stifling little kitchen where she finished the finery of the rich when she often faiuted. So my correspondent says. There were days of Illness when she could not work. Earnings grew less, and to feed the hungry mouths, it is feared, she often went without food. And then one day the mother fell over her rub dead! Which Is all. But isn't it enough? She paid the last full measure of motherly devotion. Men and women often die heroic deaths under Impulse, but this poor mother died by inches, straining in long drawn agony the last drop of her blood to earn bread and butter for her babes. If the newspaper headlines record how one dies at his post and another goes down with his engine, surely this mother deserves in big letters (how strange to see it that way) "Died at Her Tub." Deserved a Reward. "Booth Tarkington Is very difficult to please in matters theatrical," said a Philadelphia novelist. "Tarkington was visiting me here during the run of one of his own plays, and after dinner one evening we sauntered to the theater. But the doorkeeper didn't know us and for some little time refused to let us in. Finally, though, Tarkington's identity -was established, and we were conducted to a rttage box. But the performance wasn't up to much. Tarkington fidgeted in his chair, and at the end of the first act he suggested that we go. On our way out I saw my illustrious friend peering anxiously about the lobby. 'What are you looking for?" I said. 'I'm looking,' said Tarkington, 'for that chap who wouldn't let us in. I want to give him a quarter." " Making Themeelves Known. "Persons who expect to receive money orders in a strange town take infinite precautions to identify themselves," said a postal clerk. "One way that particularly commends itself .is for the stranger to call on the paying teller in the money order department before bis own order arrives and present a bunch of correspondence showing pretty clearly who he is. Ho then explains that he is expecting a money order from a certain person. Can the clerk remember him when he presents it for payment? After that Impressive introduction the clerk usually can remember, and when the order Is presented he cashes it-" New York Sun. Palladium Want Ads Pay.

PLAIN CLOTHES COP CONSPIRACY VICTIM

(National News Association Chicago, July 15. In a mysterious shooting affray early today Thomas Schweig, a plain-clothes officer was instantly killed. With his revolver clutched in his fingers the lifeless body was found at West Ohio and Paulina streets. The revolver had not been discharged. The police believe that Schweig was the victim of a conspiracy. He had made many enemies by his activities against "criminals. WHAT OTHERS SAY PAY FOR TREES. From the Boston Advertiser. The New York courts have just decided a case brought by a resident of Long Island City, who demanded $500 for the destruction of some trees on his land by a construction company. The jury returned a verdict for the full $500. but the justice presiding trebled the damages, as the New York laws allowed him to do. The case was taken up to the appellate court, which has just decided, upholding the action of the trial judge. The verdict, then, stands for $1,500 instead of $500. The value of the wood in tho trees is not the value of the growing trees A tree takes the best part of a century to come into existence, in many cases. The mere value of the wood cannot replace the tree. A stack of lumber containing the same amount of cubic feet is as nothing compared with the beautiful foliage, the grateful shade, the graceful contour, in the landscape. The next generation will probably consider that for a handsome tree on a residential street, a venerable oak or elm, the value should be ten times the price of the wood it contains. HOME. From the Detroit News. Observe the people who take to the water these days in search of relief from the heat. The "relief" in most cases consists in burned and blistered backs, necks, faces, ears and toes.

They have found out what the old-time swimmer tells, that in such days as try men's hides the waters of Lake St. Clair are smooth and shiny and alluring, but entirely hot. As a matter of fact, the only place with comfort in it is home home, with its ice box, its beady pitcher of lemonade, the shaded porch, the vine and fig tree. THE POWERS. From the Chicago News.

TITLED FOREIGNER IS PURSUING WIDOW (National Newa Association) San Francisco, July 15. Capt. E. H. Heinze, a yOung Austrian army officer, heir to a proud title and large estates, arrived here on the steamer China after a will-o-the-wisp pursuit of Mrs. Celsade Cune, a dashing Frankfort, Ky., widow, who was also a passenger on the steamship China. Heinze's pursuit led him to all parts of the world. It ended in rejection of his suit just before reaching ths port. Mr. Cune refuses to discuss the affair.

The Pekln's master declared that owing to the sharp bend in the river it was a "crossing" case, in which the Normandle was to blame. In the bouse ef lords, however, it was held that the right of any channel of any degree of sinuosity lay at the right of the channel's center; that, therefore, when the Tekin failed to observe the rule in the sharp bend and "cut across" it became an offender against the law and must pay damages.
