U. S. EXPLORER * WORKS HIS WAY HOME AFOOT Harold Noice Expects to Reach Civilization by Next Summer Seattle, Oct. 18. —An American explorer, Harold Nolce, formerly a member of Vilhjalmur Stefansson's party is working his way eastward on foot along the route of the north west passage on the northern rim of the continent, according to word re ceived here. He expects to reach the Hudson Bay country and civili zation some time next summer. Storker Storkerson, formerly sec ond in command of the Stefanssosi party, who arrived here recently from the far north, said that Noice, accompanied only by Eskimos, is proceeding slowly and mapping por tions of the coast lines as he goes. A stretch of the coast line of Vic toria Land, heretofore unmapped, is being charted by Noice. Noice may visit the interior of Victoria Land, which, according to all reports, has never been explored by white men. All explorers, trad ers and trappers who have touched Victoria Land have only journeyed along its shores. Stefansson found the tribe of "blond Eskimos" in the Victoria Land country. Noice has no ship and but few supplies. He depends almost en tirely upon his gur. for his living. Stefansson, his former chief, who is noted among explorers as being able to live off the barren white lands of the north, probably taught Noice how to get about, without carrying many supplies. Noice's parents live in Seattle. The explorer is young in years, hav ing graduated from a high school here about eight years ago. He went north in 1912 with Captain Louis Lane on the schooner Polar Bear. When Stefansson purchased the Polar Bear from Lane, Noice ship ped us a member of the crew. Later, when Stefansson decided to return to the outside world, Noice left the party and remained in the North. His parents expect him to return to Seattle next year. British War Office Receives Confirmation of Capture of Gatchina By Associated Press. ijowlon, Oct. 18. —The British war office to-day received confirmation of the news of the capture of Gatch ina, 25 miles south of Petrograd, by the northwestern Russian army of General Yudenitch. The Bolsheviki wero driven from the town yester day. The Esthonians, operating in the coastal region, ulong the gulf of Finland, the official advices state, are within a few miles of Kras naia Gorka and are facing the fort ress of Kronstadt. In the center of the advancing line, official information is that the anti-Bolshevik forces on Thursday pushed forward to a point three or four miles below Luga, 80 miles south of Petrograd. The Soviet forces are, according to latest advices, still desperately defending Petrograd, toward which the anti-Bolshevik troops have been advancing since October 11. Con firmation of dispatches telling of the fall of the former Russian capital has not been received in official quar ters here. Over the whole situation around Petrograd there is consider able obscurity, due to conflicting re ports. General Denikine appears to be advancing his left flank along the Dnieper Valley, taking Chernigoff and moving northward toward Go mel, where his Cossacks may join Polish forces and present a com pact front to the Soviet armies. If this advancement is made the anti- Bolshevik line from Petrograd to Orel, south of Moscow, would re semble a great horseshoe enclosing the Bolsheviki. East of Orel and in the Don re gion the Bolsheviki are reported ' be retreating all along the fron, Denikine troops have crossed the Don over a front 200 miles in length, it is claimed. Germano-Russian forces are said to be holding the left bank of the lower Duna river Riga. Farther up the stream indecisive fighting is reported. Up to Railroads to Help Themselves, Says Director In a statement issued to-day at Duluth, Walker D. Hines, Director General of Railroads, tells raiilroad executives that the Federal Admin istration cannot increase rates with a view to helping the railroads fi nancially when the latter go back to private control. He says in part: "There is no duty whatever, cither legal or moral, resting on the Railroad Administration to initiate for the benefit of the railroad cor poration rates which it believes to be inexpedient to initiate for its own benefit. On the contrary, the rail road companies have the power to protect their interests in this matter just as fully as they had in the past and -they ought to resort to it un less they choose to stand on the rates as they are.

CSa I Bacon or Tobacco?- There isn t a whole lot of difference between tobacco and bacon when it comes to making it fit for use. Both have to be subjected to a curing process be fore they re tasty. Only, tobacco takes a heap more attention. It's got to age, and sweat, and a lot of other things, and that takes time —if you let Nature do it. Some folks try to beat Nature to it in time by "special" pro cesses, but they never catcb up to her on mellowness. We don't want any of this "special process" tobacco. Only Nature can pro duce quality good enough for K. 0. So, tobacco that was gathered 'way back in 1918 is just beginning to pass in . spection for admission into K. 0. And we've got a good big lot of it that'll keep right on maturing in our warehouses, insuring K. 0. smokers of the 29-year-old mellowness for many a moon. John C. Herman & Co.
