Ruined Village of an Olden People Found by Explorers, CHRISTIANIA, Norway, Sept. 20.—Cap- tain Otto Sverdrup, who reached Stav- anger yesterday from the Arctic region on the steamer Fram, in an interview gave the following details of the expedi- tion: I spent the winter of 1898-99 in winter quar- ters at Ellesmereland, whence sclentific ex- peditions were started with sledges. The sum- mer of 1899 was unfavorable and the Fram was obligid to return and pass the winter at Ellesmereland. A great part of the surround- ing region mapped out. There was a se- rious fire on board the Fram in May, 1900. It were smeared with paraffine for their protec- tion. The rigging and masts caught fire and the total destruction of the vessel was threat- ened, but we succeeded In mastering the fiames. In August, @nd .Cardigan Strait and took up winter quarters at 76 48 north and 89 west. The re- gion was rich in reindeer and polar wolves, of which we brought back living specimens. The following winter was more than ordinarily cold and stormy, the average temperature be- ing 45 degrees below zero. Sledge expeditions wecupled the spring and summer of 1901 and succeeded in breaking away from the ice and errived at Godhaven August 18. We left Cape Farewell homeward bound on August 28, Captain Sverdrup added that the mem- bers of the expedition met no Eskimos in the regions visited, but he said that many ruined dwellings belonging to former pe- riods were seen. — BALDWIN REACHES LONDON. Tells of Having Secured Moving Pic- tures in Arctic Region. LONDON, Sept. 20.—Evelyn B. Baldwin of the Baldwin-Ziegler Arctic expedition arrived in London to-day on his way home.

The most southerly station is on_ Aler Island, eighteen miles north of the Jack- son-Hartworth expedition’s former head- quarters. A second station is on Greely Island, close to the eighty-first.parallel, near a large island which was charted last spring and named President McKin- ley 1Island. Thirty-five miles farther north is a third station, equipped with 5000 pounds of condensed food, on an isl- and discovered but not named. A fourth and the most northerly station was estab- lished on Rudolphland, within sight of the headquarters which were occupied by the Duke of Abruzzi expedition. It con- tains all the condensed stores originally intended for a dash to the pole. The expedition, for the first time in Arctic explorations, Baldwin added, se- cured complete photographs of the snow {and ice conditions there. They include | moving pictures. Baldwin gave an in- | teresting account of the journey to Cape | Norway, where he came upon Dr. Nan- sen’s hut, the place where Nansen and | Johansen spent their historic winter. The hut was partly gnawed by foxes and bears. Dr. Nansen's record was intact. It was found in a brass cylinder and was dated May 19, 189, and written in pencil on a half-sheet of note paper. Baldwin | has the Nansen record and left his own | record in its place. Later the America, | Baldwin's ship, was in immediate peril of being crushed by icebergs, but escaped by putting on all availlable steam. ‘While in the Arctic regions Baldwin re- leased 300 balloons, which were driven garding air and sea currents. " Each bal- loon has attached to it an automatic | buoy addressed to the ‘Nearest American Consul.” The expedition's start for home was at- tended by exciting incidents. It was necessary to charge the heavy ice drifts, break them with dynamite and saw a | channel through™the ice.« The America | was caught in an ice field, her screw and | rudder were twisted and her propeller frame was broken. ¥ The expedition had another exciting ex- perience in a pack further south. Two members of the expedition, unarmed and on a pony sledge, were set upon hy huge white bears. The pony bolted and the | men were defenseless. With great pres- | ence of mind they clambered on an ice- berg and escaped on the other side to the ship. Baldwin described fights between dog teams and herds of walrus, and in conclusion said: “The idea of an open polar sea is base: less. We know that land extends as fa | as 82 degrees on Franz Josef Land, and from there I believe the pole can be reached. I agre with Peary that the most practicable way of reaching the pole is by sledging from that point.” Red Bluff’s Ratification.

LONDON, Sept. 20.—Stanley Spencer, the zeronaut who yesterday traveled nearly thirty miles over London in an air- ghip of his own invention, to-day furnish- ed interesting descriptions of. his flight among the clouds. He said: “At one time I feared an explosion of the balloon, but the automatic valve pre- vented a catastrophe. The engine also threatened to ignite the gas of the bal- loon, but this danger I also overcame. I had the machine under perfect control and I could turn in any direction. The people in the London’ thoroughfares look- ed like lines of ants. “When 1 alighted the machine came down so lightly that a child might have been under it without being hurt. The distance covered was much farther than at first reported, being fully thirty miles. 1 dropped balls as I went along. It shows what an army could do with an airship carrying bombs. My ship differs from Santos Dumont’s in that is it propelled in front, Its speed is 72 miles an hour. My present ship is a one-man affair, but T can make one to accommodate any rea- sonable number of persons.” RAIN SPOILS RACING ON EMPIRE CITY TRACK Trotting Events Are Postponed for Two Days After Which Time Some Are Abandoned.

TAKES UP COMPLAINTS ) FROM THE MINING MEN Mineralogist Aubury Will Investi- gate the Alleged Operations of Scrippers. LOS ANGELES, Sept. 20.—State Miner- alogist Lewis E. Aubury, who is visiting the city for a few days, has something to say about the reported location of large tracts of mineral land throughout the State by “scrippers” and timber locaters. Aubury saild that he had received a number of communications from _the miners in Siskiyou, Shasta, Sierra, Plu- mas, El Dorado, Calaveras and other min- ing counties, in which it was stated that large corporations were intruding upon their rights and that much of the so- ca{l:d timber land was mineral in char- acter. A number of these miners were too poor to make the necessary contests, and the State Mineralogist was appealed to in or- der to precent the wholesale grabbing of the mineral lands. Aubury said that it was his purpose to send field assistants to the various sec- tions from which complaints had teen made, in order to verify the statements of the miners. Should these reports be veri- fled, then the Mining Bureau will formu- late the necessary protests and forward them to the Commissioner of the General Land Office in Washington. Prison Directors Meet. SAN RAFAEL, Sept. 20.—The State Beard of Prison Directors met in San Quentin Prison to-day. Owing to the ab- sence of some of the members no paroles were granted and no petition for parole was discussed.

P N Bk 2 PORT AU PRINCE, Hayti, Sept. 20.— The provisional government of Haytl is taking energetic steps to end the civil war in this republic, and it.is the gen- eral impression that this official activity is due to the reports which have reached | here that under certain circumstances the United States might be compelled to in- tervene for the purpose of ending the strife.

F1ll a bottle or common glass with your water and let it stand twenty-four hours; a sediment or settling indicates an un- bealthy condition of the kidneys; If It stains the linen it is evidence of kidney trcuble; too frequent desire to pass it, or pain in the back is also convincing proof that the kidneys and bladder are out of order. WRAT TO DO. There is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Reot, the great kidney and bladder rem- edy, fulfills every wish in curing rheuma- tism, pains “in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of the urinary passage. It corrects inability to hold water and scalding pain In passing it, or bad effects following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to go oftem during the day and to get up many times during' the night. The mild and the ex~ traordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases. If you need a medicine you should have the best. Sold by druggists in fifty- cent and one-dollar sizes. You may have a sample bottle of Swamp-Root and a book that tells more about it, both sent absolutely free, by malil.
