On the 15th of October it may be said the Arctic night com mences, but in addition to this the wind was blowing strong from the southesst; it was snowlng and drifting and was fearfully dark; the wind was exceedingly heavy, and %0 bad was th w and sleet that one coull not even look to the windward, We did not know who was on the ice or who was on th ship; but I knew some of the children were on the because almost the last thing 1 had pulled away from the cruching heel of the sb some musk ox sking; they were lying across a wide crack in the ic and as 1 pulled them toward me to sav them 1 saw that there were two or three of Hans' children rolled up in one of the skins a slight motlon of the ice, and In a moment they would either have been in the water and drowned in the darkness or crushed be tween ice Some of the men were on small pieces of fee. I took the litdle donkey, a small scow, and went for the the scow was almost instantly swamped. Then I shoved off one of the whale boats and took off what men T could see, and some of the men took the other beat and helped their companions, so that we were all on firm ice at last, We did not dare to move about much that, for we could not see the size of th we were oun on account of the darkness. Fortunately we had the two boats on our plece of the floe. This was nearly a circula place, about four miles in circumferenc It was not level, but was full of hillocks and ponds, or small lakes, which ha been formed by the melting of the ice during the short summer. The ice was of various thicknesses, Some of the mounds or hills were probably thirty feet thick and the flat parts not more than ten or fiteen. It wa very rough; the hillocks were covered with snow; indeed, the surface was all snow fron the last storm Tha diary records the despair at being deserted Only once did the ship appe was then eight or t nals of the men e unheeded On the second day the floe on which they had been left began to split and great pieces floated away. They, therefore, removed to another, but not before they had carefully explored in every direction for open water on which they might launch their boats and attempt to reach the land. They did dis one lead, but before thelr boats could carried to it the ice had closed again, Then with the help of the Esquimaux who were with them they built snow huts and settled down to their long fight with death The story of the winter is simlar to tha told by many Aretic explorers, only fn th s case there was the additional horror of know ing that they were not on land and that as spring returned, and with it the poss of rescue, there was the additionai danger of floe and boat being destroyed at any moment On April 25 they ventured to take to their boat. The entry in Captain Tyson's diary is as follows: We launched our boat this morning about 7 a'clock, determined to try and gat to land though thie attempt was dangerous in the ex treme, for the boat was badly damaged with her struggle on the fce and other hard usage Sho was scratched and patched, but we have no means now of putting her In repair. It seemed like putting to sea in a cracked bow! But what are we to do? The pixce of lce we were on had wasted away 5o much that we knew it could never ride out the gale. The danger was so very great elther way. The light, overladen, dam aged boat looked as If she would founder, but the ice certainly would before long, If not founder, be broken up into pash, affording us not even a foothold After eight hours’ frultless labor at the oars wo hauled wp on a piece of floe and prepared to camp for the night.

To my great joy and reli=f, the steamer's head was soon turned toward us. O her approach, as they slowed down, I took off my old Russian cep, which 1 had worn a% winter, and, waving it over my head gave them three cheers, in which all the men most heartily join:d.

One places its at $33,000 definite flgures are given, the sec ond one is supposed to have been robbed of from $20,000 to $30,000. The query naturally ““How s it possible under any cumstances foreone man rob a bank such an amount without instant tection?” “The answer, to many somewhat L artling, is simple,” sald a prominent bank official to a reporter for the Chicago Tribune Neither you nor any other mortal will ever any method or ne by will suffer immunity from a dishonost | teller or officer. rks not handling the | actual cash can be hedged about by a :ys tem which practically bars any stealing, at least for an extended period, but those who handle the currency or have free o the inoney vault must be truste “This problem,” he continued, glven any amount of consideration vet no safeguard has been evolved which | Will satisfactorily meet the issue.

This man had unques- tioned access to the money vault and simply helped himself to one or more packages con ning this amou While the bankers are practically a unit in the opinion that there is nothing to prevent this mode of stealing are some who are totally out of pa when dwelling on the fact that the peculations of these men had been kept up for more his of service from the while n banks loss and arises cir: of des to almost devise bank soh which a “has been but some time. There is absolutely no excuse for such an oceurrence, and you may quote me as saying said an officer of a large Dearborn street financial stronghold. “It is due to two things: Either a faully system obtain- ing in the various departments of the bank or misplaced confidence; perhaps both, With us such a thing Is out of the question and we it is due to what we consider 1 perfect system of control of every one of he daily tra tions of our clerks that we have not suffered a loss during our ent exist e through the dishonesty of a e ploye.” When asked to what be attributed the almost inexplicable dishonesty of trusted me s gentleman said be thought the solution could be found in the fact that these employes had their accounts examined only at regular intervals, THE TRUE REMEDY. Let the tellers once for all understand that their cash is liable to be counted at any day or moment and it will serve as a decided draw k to any contemplated pocketing of jther people’s money. This has application not only to bank tellers but to any one in- trusted with the keeping of large amounts of mone; It is nonsense to ar that thes. abrupt examinations are a direct reflection 1 the honesty of the employe. In a bank rks must understand that the money Is by no means the personal property of the bank officials They are merely custodians, and as such must do everything in their power to protect the interests of their cus- Sentimental sensitiveness in this folly, and many a bank has paid for its Indulgence. An honest man prefers having his accounts over- hauled. because he is proud that his work is srrect and s glad to have it known to his superiors. On the other hand, if a man after years of experience, is convinced that his cach or work In general is not liable to be checked up except just so often he is, if estly disposed, far morz liable to take vantage of his position “We make It a rule to examine thoroughly the work of every teller at irregular inter- s. Sometimes a competent clerk is de- 1 for this work, then again I might my- It see fit to do so. We have in this re- t what might be called an interchange- system which practically dcbars any one the cash from stealing by any scheme, however skillfully conceived. Al ways excepting, of course, the possibility hat a man m pockel a package of money when putting up his cash. This it is impos to_prevent or thing,” continued the official y ideal banking instituti “The officers of a bank should never under any ecircumstances lose sight of the individ- ty of clerks, It does not suffice to have « report now and then from some sort of detective organization.
