HEnSCHELi ISLAND, vAug 22 (via
Nome, Alaska, Sept. 16). The Ice party
S. this year consisted otStorkensen, tAndrca
'aen and Thomson, all Norwegians ex
cept myself. We left the base at Cape
Kellett In the first part of February with
nine others. On February 21, through
the accidental spilling of fuel oil, t had
to send a sled from Capo Alfred back to
Kellett for mora oil and waited for thorn
. there until April E.
We finally left Cape Alfred much too
late In the season on account of our too
southerly base, 200 miles within the area
explored last year, and proceeded In a
direction between the north and north
west. On account of sore-footed dogs,
thick, foes and soft snow among the pres
sure Ice and much open water we had
reached by April 26 only north latitude 75
ij degrees, fr,om a point eight miles from
the shore Here the sea depth ranged
from 300 to 400 meters.
We traveled much on Ice about five
Inches thick, and once would have lost
one of our two sleds and the better dog
team had the Ice broken 10 feet sooner
than It did. The sled went down after
our last dog reached the strong Ice on the
far side of the lead, and we finally got
the sled and the load, although they were
. soaking wet.
One day we crossed a 20-mile expanse
of Ice, none of it more than eight Inches
thick, but safe so long as no wind or cur-
' rent moved the ice or broke It in small
Pieces. At .north latitude 76 degrees 20
minutes, between May 1 and 6, wo drifted
11 miles south and 13 miles west, and
J there was so much onen wnturvihni ,,

er vas getting -warmer faet, and the Ice
was broken Into small pieces with water
or mashed-up ice between. I, therefore,
rave up further attempts of going west,
and traveled to the west coast of Prince
Patrick Island.
Some 75 miles off shore, near 76 de
t grees 40 minutes north, we were forced
to realize that we could hope for no
great uorthering at so lato a season on
broken ice drifting rapidly southwest.
We, therefore, tried to make the ohort
face Ice off Prince Patrick Island In
that latitude, but were carried DO miles
south before we fully made, land about
10 miles south ot the land which we had
seen on June 1.
Before this time our kerosene had given
out and we were burning seal blubber,
and the caribou meat, dried at Norway
.Island during the summer of 1914 for dog
food, was also finished. For the men
we had still 20 days' rations, for we
had lived partly on seals and beam
Proceeding northward we finished the
charting of tho coast line between the
farther points reached by McCllntock
and Mecras from their winter base at
t)M,'lly'.If U1d on- the ouln oat of Mel
vllle Island Fogs and thick weather
hampered us greatly in t'nis work. On
the afternoon of June 15 we reached the

ALLEGED BROMLEY WIFE
SALOON MAN'S SISTER
Continued from race One
has been Instructed by her attorney not
to speak of it.
Although Mr. Meagher asserts that ho
"never had a better case of Its kind,"
other attorneys explained yesterday that
"Mrs. Bromley" may have some dlffl
culty In proving that she Is the widow
of tho dead manufacturer. If Bromley
visitea me nouse at n Norm Broad
street nearly every day for nine years
and spent hours there, a statement neigh
bors say they can cubstantlate, that
would not be enough to establish that
Bromley and "Mrs. Bromley" were mar
ried In the meaning of the law.
According to attorneys. It would be nee
essary that Bromley should have ac
knowledged tho woman publicly as his
wife.
"It would be hard to set up the claim
that tho woman claiming to be Mrs.
Bromley really was his wife,'" .aid one
attorney, "unlesj she can prove that he
Introduced her as his wife, or addressed
her as "Mrs. Bromley" In lettors, or In
any other way admitted the existence of a
Mrs. Bromley Who was this woman. Un
der certain circumstances, the lack of this
evldenca might not Invalidate her claim,
but I do not know whether these cir
cumstances exist In this case, and they
are so difficult of definition that it would
be hard to explain what they are."
The Bromleys and their attorneys ore

the widow of Edward Bromley. Unti

Bromley would wave to "ier as she stood

business. Don't be fooled. Vote for
Charles Emely for Magistrate on the Re
publican, Democratic, Keystone or Per
sonal Liberty ticket. It Is your duty to
show your friend that you appreciate
what he did for you."

GEORGE EARLE SAVED
FROM BLINDNESS BY
A NEW TREATMENT
Cataracts in Both Eyes Re
moved by Osteopath After
Financier Had Given
Up Hope
NERVES MADE TO WORK
George H. Earle,' head of the Real Es
tate Trust Company, the Pennsylvania
Sugar Refining Company, the Finance
Company of Pennsylvania, nnd many
otl)er large concern, after facing total
blindness, has had his sight fully re
stored by a new treatment which, prom
ise, to mark a new epoch In tho treat
ment of cataract of the eye.
Mr. Earle's close friends have known
for some time of the seemingly miracu
lous cure, but tho public generally wa.
never acquainted with tho fact that about
four jears ago the prospect of a 25 per
cent, vision at the best was all that
physicians held out to him, and that he
had been advised to prepare to close out
hi. vast financial Interests should the
worst happen.
int. treatment consisted of a simple
bulldlng-up process, after the function
ing of thi nerves of nutrition had been
restored, without the aid of lenses or a
surgical operation.
Mr. Earlo was examined, because of ee
trouble, by three ocullsta shortly beforo
the mayoralty campaign of 1911. They
declared he had cataracts In both eyes.
Why he went to Doctor Dunnlngton,
with ofllce In the Real Estate Trust
Building, Is explained In a statement ho
dictated. Mr. Earle sajs ho was afflicted
with what his physicians said was lum
bago, and during the receivership of tho
Real Estate Trust Company suffered so
much pain that he was ready to do al
most anything to be cured.
To his surprise, the phslclan de
clared that he did not have lumbago, but
that there was a displacement and one
of his legs was at least an Inch and a
half longer than the other. Within a
half hour, Mr. Earlo says, his trouble
nag ended when Doctor Dunnlngton made
tho requisite adjustment.
He tells this as follows:
"Remembering my past experience with
Doctor Dunnlngton, I then consulted
him. He told me to use, my eyes Just
as much as I chose, nnd he was per
fectly confident not only that my eyes
would grow no worse, but would ulti
mately bo entirely free from the trouble;
there would be no operation, and not to
have the slightest anxiety unon the sub
ject. "I think that was nearly four jcara
ago. Since that time I have had the con
stant,' and often severe, use of my eyes,
my sight has wonderfully Improved, as
far as observations can tell, and as
far as an examination will show, the
cataract upon theleft eye, which was
the worst. Is entirely gone and there la
only a micrpscoplc remainder of that
upon the right, which Is leaving with
great rapidity.
"I feel as though I have seen a series ot
miracles, not only In my case, but In
other friends, who have gone to Doctor
Dunnlngton, and upon whom he has, by
the simplest methods, upon the most ra
tional principles, secured cure after cure,
not merely In cataract, but In other trou
bles that havo baffled all other practi
tioners. "I do not think there Is anything to add,
except that there Is a certain feeling ot
awe In realizing that ore Is, perhaps, the
first Instance In history of a person who
has had this affliction and been cured. If
this statement should prove ot servlco to
anybody. It will, of course, be an addi
tional gratification to that which I feel for
my own rescuo from what Is perhaps the
greatest possible human affliction."

WRITES MRS. PETERSON

nothing ot this at the time of her mar
riage. "That's all right," said Peterson, when
he had read the letter. "She doesn't
mean that. Things look a little dark to
her now, but I'm going to get out ot hero
soon maybe today and 10 mlnutea after
I see her everything will be all right
again. I have always done everything In
the world I could for her. I have made
as high as $S0 and J100 a month and given
It all to her. She had a comfortable home
and plenty to eat and good clothes. What
more could she ask7 She was always
an Ideal wife, and .he, not going to
leave me now.
"This must bo the doings of her family.
I can't understand It They never liked
me. Mrs. Mary Muckelston, my wife's
mother, In Pitman, has always disliked
me and done everything she could against
me, but In spite of that I have always
had tho highest respect for all my wife's
people and havo done everything I could
to please them."
