as the men who own thoroughbreds of
a more ornamental and less useful type
than the draft animals, special prizes
amounting to over SIO,OOO having been
offered for the work horses. This will
bring to the show a million dollar dis
play of Belgians, Clydesdales, I'erche
rons and other famous drafters, and
the great animals in the ring with
dainty saddle and slim harness beau
ties will make a novel exhibit.
In the past this exhibit of equities
has mostly been New York's show, but
hereafter other cities art; to take an
important part in it, and animals of all
breeds from all over the country will
be entered. The judges this year will
be the best known and most efficient
to be obtained in the United States
and Canada. Harness, saddle and
jumping horses of the highest types
are to have quite as important a place
on the program as ever, but the draft
horses are to be featured as the pi k
of the country's breeding farms.
Edward Morris of Chicago, whose
massive six horse team was a big fea
ture of the London international show,
has entered these champions and also
ten of the best Clydesdales ever
brought from Great Britain, among
them the champion of the annual
highland show in Scotland of draft
horses. The McLaughlins of Kansas

Paris show. Champion Belgians are
to be the exhibit of Alexander Gal
braith of Jatiesville, Wis., and the
Truemaus will show the prize Shires
from the Royal Agricultural society's
show in Eugland. Many other well
known horsemen will exhibit.
Probably no other event held in this
country brings together so many
people of great fortunes and promi
nence as the national horse show,
wealth and fashion having set their
stamp of approval on the affair from
the very first. The development of
the show to its present proportions
and significance means that it has far
outgrown the ideas and even the an
ticipations of its founders. The ex-
hibit not only interests and excites the
social and sporting world, but is of tbe
greatest moment to the hotels, restau
rants. florists, liverymen and even
boarding houses and transportation
companies arid to the railroads center
ing in tbe metropolis.
It takes to New York an array of
wealthy visitors and out from their
homes many thousands of New York
ers as wealthy, whose aggregate ex
penditures. inspired incidentally by
the show, in the matter of gowns and
clothes, flowers, carriages aud hotel
and restaurant outlays mount into the
millions. This is no exaggerated state
ment. and it is safe to say that Were
the horse show fo be abandoned or
even to wane in popularity there
would be wailing and lamentation in
the business as well as in the social
and sporting worlds.
Women in the past have not only en
tered many equine prize winners, but
also personally exhibited them In the
ring. And last year, for the first time

RASMUSSEN LIVED
WITH ESKIMOS
Danish Defender of Dr, Cook
Authority on Frozen Morth.
IS AUTHOR OF A POUR BOOK.
Ha Went to Greenland With Danish
Expedition In 1902 to Study Racial
History of the Greenlanders, Etc.
Returned There In 1906, to Be Gon»
Six Years.
Knud Kasmussen, the Danish ex
plorer, now at Julianehaab, Greenland,
who defends Dr. Frederick A. Cook's
claim as to the discovery of the north
pole, was a member of the Danish lit
erary expedition which left Copenha
gen early in 1902 and spent two years
among the Eskimos iu Greenland.
Rasmussen's assertions of his belief
iu Cook's story after talks with Eski
mos familiar with Cook's exploits have
materially strengthened the Brooklyn
doctor's position in various circles
which have shown an inclination to
doubt parts of his narrative.
Rasmussen spent the two years he
was in Greenland on the stated occa
sion i:i studying the racial history of
the Eskimos.
The other principals of the expedi
tion were L. Mylius Erlchsen and
Count Ilarald Moltke. Organized orig
inally as a private enterprise, the ob
jects were deemed of such importance
from a geographical and ethnological
point of view that the total expenses
of the expedition were assumed by the
Danish kingdom.
Went to Cape York.
The expedition arrived in Greenland
in June, 1002. it left Upernavik for
Cape York iu March. 1903, spending
nearly ten months among the polar Es
kimos, ami left for the south again in
June, 1904, breaking its journey by a
stop in west Greenland and returning
to Copenhagen in September, 1904.
In August, 19013, Rasmussen left Co
penhagen for Greenland, intending to
be gone six years to complete his re
searches into the ethnological and so
cial habits of the Eskimos, the tour, as
originally planned, to cover the entire
north coast of North America as far as
Alaska.
For lliis work Rasmussen is peculiar
ly fitted, as lie is part Eskimo himself.
11 is mother is a south Greenland Eski
mo. His father is Christian Rasmus
sen, a Danish clergyman, who spent
over twenty years as a missionary
among the natives of southwest Green
land. At the age of fourteen Knud
Rasmussen went to Denmark with his
parents and entered the University of
Copenhagen, from which lie was grad
uated with honors.
Three Branches of Race.
The results of his early association
with his kinsfolk, supplemented by his
more mature studies of KJU'_' aud 11)03,
were published in Danish under the
titles of"The New People" aud "The
Lash of the North Wind." They were
translated into English in 1908 and
published under the title of "People of
the Polar North." The book deals with
three distinct Eskimo branches which
i umprise the population of Greenland
-first. the west Greenlanders, being
I lie civilized and Christianized inhab
itants of west and southwest tireen

l.elng the former iuhabilants of the
• ■utbe&st coast, now practically de
i-rted except in one area on the east
■ •oast known as Angmagssllk, and.
third, the polar Eskimos.
111 this record of the lives of the most
northerly dwelling people of the world,
comprising the nomadic groups be
tween the degrees of 7t> and 78 uorth
latitude, are embraced their legends,
religious beliefs and fables—everything,
in fact, counected with their folklore
and their present views of life, in the
preface to his book Rasmussen says:
"When I was a child I used often to
hear an old CJreenlandic woman tell
how. far away north, at the end of the
world, there lived a people who dressed
in bearskins aud ate raw tlesli. Their
country was always shut in by ice. and
the daylight never reached over the
tops of their high fjelds (mountains).
Whoever wished togo there must
travel with the south wind, right up
to the lord of the wild north gales.
Kven before 1 knew what traveling
meant I determined (hat oue day I
would go and find these people."
"The Eskimos," he says, "are much
like animals. The hive their
wives, but when I lie fancy takes them
they maltreat tlieni in a manner that
we civilized men would consider bru
tal 'But.' say the Eskimos, 'lf atfei

Even Ihe presence of a civilized man
v'"> had Eskimo blood In his veins
fir >used the suspicions of the south
east <.reenlamlers. All sorts of m
i"ors. he says, were circulated about
Ills coming, "chiefly hawked about by
old Christian women whose tongues re
quired a little exercise." To win their
confidence Rasmussen adopted the
policy of asking no questions for a
numher of days.
"Thus." he says."l succeeded at
length In the confidence of the
people, and during my life with theoi
they gave me descriptions of the events
flint hnd been mainly responsible for
their determination to migrate to ttie
west oonst and their resultant conver

English Engineer Says There Is One
In Portugal. • ;
That tlit* recent discovery of rich ore !

technically known as the sub
stance from wV'*h rauium is ex
tracted.
Professor James F. Kemp, head of
the department of geology at Colum
bia. and other r tubers of the stafT
have seen some of uie specimens.
According to one analyst, Allen F.

Oxford university, who subjected the
mineral to the usual scientific tests for

quartz thickly crusted with yellow
crystals. These crystals when exniii
j lued proved to contain uranium, cai

was no trace of other metallic or acid
Impurities.
Up to the time of the discovery of
the Portuguese deposits the chief ore
from which radium was extracted was
pitchblende, considerable quantities of
which are found iu Bohemia anil in
Cornwall, England. The amount of ra
dium producing material in this sub
stance. according to Mr. March. Is
about (> per cent, whereas the ore ob
tained from Portugal has been tested
and found to contain 33 per cent of
oxide of uranium. E. B. Barboni. a
French chemist, after subjecting the
new mineral to careful tests, declared
that by reason of the ease with which
it could be treated it was in his opin
ion "at iea=t three times superior as
raw material to pitchblende."

"Young man.go to the country if

a departmental groove and go no high

Joseph T. Talbert. president of the
Chicago Clearing House association
and first vice president of the Com
mercial National bank of Chicago, was
talking of the reasons as he saw tbem
for his being called to New York as
a vice president of the National City
bank when he gave this advice to
J young men,
Mr. Talbert attributes his success to
- the fact that he was trained in a coun
try institution and says that lie "rub
bed elbows with the farmer."
"In the bauking business, as well as
in any line of trade, the man who
knows his customers, their habits and
peculiarities, is going to got the best
results. I have never regretted that
my start was in the country bank. It
was a good school, and no young man
who is in enrnest will have cause for
regret if he takes a course in it."

RECALL OF CRANE.
Controversy Between Secretary Knox !
and the Now Minister to China.
The recall of Charles It. Crane just
as he was about (to take the steamer
for China, where he was to act as
United States ambassador, and his re
moval from that office by Secretary
Knox have caused a diplomatic sensa
tion in Washington such as has not
been seen %ince the Sackviile-West af
fair in Cleveland's administration. One
of Mr. Knox's principal reasons for de
manding Crane's resignation was that
the latter had been indiscreet in ob
taining information from the state de
partment, which he surmised was to
be used as a basis of a protest against !
Japan's domination of Manchuria, and
gave it to a Chicago newspaper. It is
also said there were many other rea
sons for Mr. Knox's action.
Much incensed by this statement of
Mr. Knox and refusing to accept the
CBAItLKB B. CitA.NK.
action of the department in silence,
Mr. Crane made a direct appeal to
President Taft. And, not to be out
done iu that direction, the secretary of
state wired a full statement of the eu
| tire case to the president, who agreed
| with Knox that Crane should resign.
Mr. Crane, although a Democrat, vot
ed for President Taft. He has travel
ed extensively and spent some time in
; China, speaking tlie language of that
; country fluently. He is fifty-one years
' old and a native of Chicago and in
order to accept the post of ambassad r :
to China was compelled to resign tne
directorship of the Crane company of

YALE'S FARSEEING
Preparations For Her Teams
Laid Down Years Ahead.
SAVAGE'S CASE AN INSTANCE.
Princeton Graduate's Views on Need
For Basketball Players on Big Elev

Pass Play.
Many who have seen the really ex
cellent work of Savage as substitute

ball team have been surprised by the
j news that he has now been shifted
to fullback on the scrub. Those fa

Blue's football strength, see in this
change but another manifestation of
Yale forethought. Ted Coy graduates

and. moreover, he has the build, weight

"You're right." As one veteran of the

unless against it has been laid the
backfire of similar preparation?"
Value of Basketball Players.
It was In this same group that a
Princeton graduate, a man who earn
ed his -P" every year of his under
graduate life, said: "What we need
are some good basketball players on
our team. The more I see of the new
game so much the more am I con
vinced that it takes a man who has
been trained by basketball to stand
against oncoming body checkers to
catch the ousiile kick and the forward
pass in a badly broken held. Von fel

who lias learned not to duck or drop
to the ground with the ball in such an
emergency who makes the best user
of the forward pass aud the onside
kick, both to get them off and to re
ceive them."
The forward pass is after its four
seasons' use become very much a ilif
ferent play tlmn it was nt tirst. For
merly high heaves were the rule, and
the man who caught them brought his
arms around the ball just as he did
for punts. That has been changed.

kick of 1900—yes. and of 1008 to a con
siderable extent oti Franklin field,
where Pennsylvania played the most
open game of the year—shows a ball
moving straight, low and hard, revolv
ing on its long axis if it turns in the
nir at all. and caught in the receiver's
hands like a baseball. The arms are
not brought over it until the man who
catches it is turning his body for bis

in the pocket of his crooked elbow.

THOSE ESKIMO MURDERERS.
Explorer Rasmussen Defends the No
torious Egst Greenlanders.
Knud Uasmussen. the Danish sci
entist. who supports Dr. Cook's claim
as to the discovery of the north pole,
has written a book on life among the
j Eskimos which has established his
reputation as an authority.
Basmussen tells some weird stories
j about the horrible murders practiced
] by these Eskimos in their earlier days,
| but in summing up their general char-
J acteristics he adds:
"I have never in the course of my
! travels lived with more cheerful, more
amiable and good humored people than
these east Greenlanders. who. had they
! lived in a civilized state, would have
paid the penalty of the law for most
I horrible murders."
1 And again, speaking of the Eskimos
| as a whole, he says:
| "There is no people with a history
I which, as regards the bitterness of its
struggle for existence and the eerinesa
' of its memories, can be compared with
| the bost of the Eskimos. Yes, they are
| good natured and filled with a desiro
I for peace In spite of all. But do not
j forget that they are, first and fore
i most, men, and men formed by the na
j ture surrounding them. The mind of
the Eskimo can be quiet and serene,
but it pan be savage 4nd remorseless
| as the ocean Itself."
