Fears for Future of Eskimos

Lion and autograph hunters have never ceased to stalk Col. Charles A. Lindbergh. His very size makes him a shining mark in a crowd. Probably his face is known to almost every one in any country which has newspapers or magazines, and his tall figure is about as easy to overlook as the Chrysler building. That is 'why he never travels by either the subway or the elevated. It is usually in front of the Hotel Plaza that you will find Patrick Egan. He Is still straight, as he sits on the box, but when he takes off ids coachman’s hat, silver hair glistens In the sun. Patrick’s hair wasn’t silver fifty years ago. when his stand .used to be down at Madison square. Gradually. Patrick and N»w York moved uptown. Hut. when Patrick Egan moved, tie drove, formally and sedately, as a gentleman should. The old Waldorf came and went; Sherry’s and Delmonico’s rested a while at Forty-fourth street, and then moved along; Patrick Egan slapped the reins gently on his horses back, and kept pace with them. Finally he has reached thp lower edge of Central park. There is a firm bulwark against which to Ivan. At that limit, wreckers and builders have to hold their hands. . ’
(lying off In great numbers from the ravages of Influenza and other diseases brought in by the white man." she said. “They have learned to eat white man’s food instead of the good caribou meat and fish which used to be their chief diet. This summer 1 saw them eating soggy pancakes covered with syrup three times a day. “The Indians have an arrangement with the Canadian government by which they ’take treaty.' becoming the wards of the governnient, ami are thus guaranteed against the Eskimos, being a more Independent race, have no such arrangement. The. white man could 1 not survive within the Arctic circle without the Eskimo and the Indian." Mrs. Warren found village life in Aklavik charmingly simple for one who longed to eScape the trivialities of modern. America, but confessed she would not care to endure It permanently.

He had always Intended that his wife, when he diet!, should have all that he possessed, as she. by all rights, slionld have had. for she had carried her half of the domestic load for twenty five years or more. But Ferguson made no. will; he Ju't meant to do so. His wife received only a part of his estate, the rest going to relatives whom Ferguson had never seen, and for whom he did not care a picayune. As it was, the wife was left with a very meager and inadequate Income, as her husband never intended should happen. Whoever makes a will should go to a lawyer to have it done. A great many contingencies may arise which the inexperienced may not foresee. Sixty thousand dollars are tied the estate of a man I knew Just because in his will he did not say the thing he Intended to say. Even an ordinary lawyer would have told him that, and have saved his family infinite embarrassment, •’Em too young," I hear a good many people say, "to make a wiU.

Race Across World SavesYoungW if e
!<ond«>n. —Science and love Joined hands here to save the life of pretty Mrs. Margaret Bennett, youthful bride of a naval stoker. The spectacular incident was watched with interest and sympathy by the entire nation. Years ago Margaret and Will Bennett were childhotid sweethearts in the Devonshire village of Newton Poppleford. Last December they were married and a few weeks later Bennett left to join his ship for a two-year cruise in the South Atlantic and Pacific. Recently the young bride became desperately ill. At the hospital a staff of highly skilled physicians and nurses began the fight for life. They despaired as they watched their tense, pale patient grow steadily worse until she fell into delirium. Here the great drama began. Through the long hours of the day and night she mumbled "Will" and “I want Will." They appealed to the admiralty to order the young stoker home. / Stoker Bennett, then in South American waters, was given a special leave and raced for London. Newspapers reported his progress and his bride’s condition. Physicians consulted colleagues and all was done to maintain the tiny spark of life un-

taxis in Ireland when Patrick was a boy. There were none in the United States of his youth. Patrick knows that there is talk of taxis being used in the defense of Paris; but Nathan Bedford Forrest, nor James Elwell Brown—hence “Jeb”—Stuart, nor Philip Henry Sheridan, ever used anything except horses; although, to b<& exact, I don’t think Patrick Egan had crossed the ocean at the time of the Civil war. Indeed, it is likely that he didn’t get over much before that memorable year which saw Custer wiped out at Little Big Horn; Alexander Graham Bell invent the telephone and the Brooklyn theater fire. Patrick would then have been in his ’teens. • • • There are all sorts of anti-noise associations in New York, but it is to be doubted whether the city ever will be entirely noiseless. Just the tread of many million |>ersdns is bound to produce some noise. In addition to that you can add the noise of countless radios and talking machines; soprano and bass singers; parrots, canary birds. Japanese robins, sparrows, and bird imitators: saxophone and piano players. St, Bernards, police dogs, spaniels, elevateds and flat-wheeled surface cars; garbage-can rattlers; milk wagons; soap-box orators who seldom use anything but the box, aft-er-dinner speakers: before breakfast speakers: dirigibles and airplanes; the cat’s meow, and many other unclassified noises. No, I don’t think the voice of the city ever will sink to a whisper. • • 1 Naturally, the big noise is made by certain city departments. The fire, health and police departments make more, noise than all the private citizens put together. The very loudest noise probably is made by the motorcycles of the police. No motorcycle cop thinks- he is on the Job unless he starts the day by racing his motor, producing a series of reports somewhat resembling machine-gun fire, only louder. The best the officers on post can do is to yell and blow their whistles. Patrol wagons, ambulances and fire apparatus make a noise of which any department should be proud. Most of these conveyances combine the sweet, moaning note of the siren with the merry clanging of a gong. Oh. well, if you live in the country there are the crickets, the chickens and the mooing cows. ’* •• • • If you see red drops leading from the kitchen to the dining-room table, you need not necessarily conclude that somebody has killed the cook.

Brent Balchen doesn’t approve of always furnishing passengers with parachutes. He says that in a big air liner, if you put parachutes on the customers before starting, the moment anything out of the ordinary happened the air would be as full of floating passengers as an October breeze is of leaves. If you don’t know a bit about parachute jumping you are likely to rock-a-by-baby in a tree-top, land on a pile of bricks or in a lake, or hang yourself up on a church steeple. Wheu Balchen starts out anywhere with passengers, he expects to land them without outside aid. • » • An effort is being made by his friends to secure the release of Norman Selby, better known as Kid McCoy, who is in a California prison.

A coated tongue Frenchman’s Great Idea for Ocean Metropolis A floating city, anchored in the ocean between the Old and New worlds, is the daring proposal of Leon Foenquinos, a Marseilles engineer. M. Foenquinos wants to build a circular steeJ ring large enough to contain a population of 200.000 that would be “the most majestic work of man.” It would be anchored at a shallow spot-, less than 200 feet deep, that is located in the Gulf stream about half way between Paris and New York, at 43 degrees longitude and 45 degrees north latitude. The ring would be 650 feet high, Its internal diameter 3,282 feet and its external diameter 4,600 feet. The idea is to call the place “Atlantis," and it will be a complete city with all conveniences, and it is hoped it will be a desirable break In the voyage for tourists between Europe and America.
