lie will makefile boldest lash
for the north pole that a live
journalist is capable of. We
have had for years a pro
found respect for so much oT
the axis of this earth as pro
jects at the extreme north,
for the reason that it minds
its own business whatever
that may be and guards its
secret as no other was ever
kept. Mr. Wellmau w ill, how
ever, lay bare this secret if
possible. He has his plans
thoroughly studied out, and
uu'ess he meets with unex
pected ditliculties, as, how
ever, most amateur explor
ers do, he w ill make a na me
for himself that will staixl
high among the list of the
woi Id's heroes. Mr. Well
man says in the Naw York
Sun :
' It is agreed by the best
students of the polar ques
tion, both in Faigland and
America, that the first expe
dition to enter this unknown I
legion need not and perhaps
should not be wholly of a
scientific character. Itslnuld
hepractieul ratherthan scien
tilic. It should be anexplor
ing parly simply a pioneer

practicable road to the pole
and show the means of trav

Rnsy-handed must have
been the women-folk of a cen
tury and a half ago. It is re
corded that one family in
Newport, R. I., made in the
space of eighteen months,
four hundred and eighty-seven
yards of doth, cai ding,
spinning, dyeing and weav
ing every inch of material
used, and also accomplished
the knitting ol thirty-six
pairs of stockings not the
thin. djIicate and ol ten llimsy
iV,osiery seen nowadays, but
such ns would boar much
heavy use and even be "hand
ed down to posterity." It is
added that another Newport
family distinguished them,
selves by making, in thespace!
of foui- years, nine hundred
and eighty yards of woolen
cloth, twocovet lets, two bed
ticks, and all the stocking!?,
needed for the family. Ex.
Charlotte News: Standing
in a hollow near Flow'", Ca
barrus county, is ihe decay
ing remains of an old four
horse wagon which has a
place in history. On this wag
on was hauled the "log cab
in'' in the "Tippecace" cam
paign when William Henry
Harrison was elected Presi
dent. The cabin wis built on
the wagon, covered with
oon skins, etc.. and hauled
from mi? political speaking
to another. The old wagon
has been "turned out" and is
now rotting down in the
wi ai her.
