"WHAT HAS BEEN ACHIEVED BY

The, recent brief stay In Honolulu, of
Lieutenant Shackelton of the British
South Polar expedition, on his way

siderable Interest In the work in which
lie was engaged. The following is
from the London Graphic of April 4,
and is probably the latest and most
authentic on the subject.

British Antarctic ship Discovery, has

BERETANIA STREETS
Victoria Land. From the record of the
expedition brought back it appears that
the Discovery, which left Lyttleton
about Christmas, 1901, made Cape
Adare on January 9, and coasted along
the great ice barrier which runs east
ward from Cape Crozler .as far as
longitude 152.30, where an extensive
glaciated land with lofty peaks was
discovered. Returning westwards,
good winter quarters were found near
Mounts 'Erebus and Terror, and the
ship was frozen in on March 24. When
winter had passed sledging began on
September 2, 1902, and a number of
sledge journeys were undertaken In
various directions, the most Important
toeing made by Commander Scott, Dr.
Wilson, and '.Lieutenant .Shackleton,
who travelled south until they reached
lat. J82.17 and long. 163 west, and estab
lished o world's record for the furthest
point south. The trip was made under
very trying conditions, and the party
had to drag the sledges back to the
ship, all the dogs having died on the
outward Journey. Lieutenant Shackle
ton, burst a blood-vessel In ne of his
lungs, and almost Ailed from exposure.
He Teburned on board the Morning.
Another party,t which included 'Lieu
tenant Royds and Mr, Skeltun, visited
iMount Teiror, and travelled along the'
ice 'barrier, which ,1s believed to be
afloat, though fed from the land Ice.
Lieutenant Armitage made .a sledge
journey to the westward, and attained,
an altitude of 9,000 feet. On the return
journey he fell into a crevasse, and If
he had not 'been' roped to the other J
would have fallen 2,000 feet. Symp
toms of scurvy appeared a,mong the
men on the Bledge journeys, but disap
peared on ' their return to the ship.
Though looking aged by tjie hard life
and having eiperlenced some privation,
owing lo part of the supplies being bad,
the officers and crew of the Discovery
loolced well and cheerful, and they
have determined to spend another win
ter among the Ice. The most Important
geographical discovery made by the ex
pedition Is J:hat Victoria Land has
been found to extend at least as far as
lat. 83.20 south, and It is thought that
the greater part of that region Is a
vast continent which stretches away to
the Pole in a series of lofty mountains.
The lowest temperature recorded by the
expedition was C2 degrees below zero.

BOERS SETTLING
BOER COMMANDERS HAVE COM
PLETED ARRANGEMENTS FOR
LARGE TRACT OF LAND.
NEW YORK, May 12. General Ben
jamin Vlljoen, former assistant com
mander-general of the burgher forces
ir the Boer war and member for Johan
nesburg In the Transvaal Volsraad,
and General W. D. Snyman, a Boer
commander .have arrived In this city
from Mexico, after completing arrange
ments with the Mexican government by
which 83,000 acres om the ty:st land of
mat country have been secured for a
home for Immigrants from South Afri
ca. General Snyman will await here
the arrival of his family and General
Vlljoen will sail for South Africa on
May 17th to conduct the first expedi
tion to the new country.
"I expect," said General Vlljoen, "to
bring fifty families Immediately, and
others wiU follow soon. Fully 1000
families will join the movement to seek
freedom on the American continent.
The land scured by us Is a beautiful
fertlle.strlp known, as Santa Rosalia, in
the State of Chihuahua and near Ortiz,
station, on the Mexican Central Rail-
read. Already men are at work there
sowing 90m. The newcomers will be
landed at Vera Cruz. We would have.
liked to bring them to the United
States, but the Immigration laws are
too strict to allow that.
"We -Boers are-now practioally a peo
ple without a home but wo hope to And
one In the new country. Our success
In getting this tract of land was in
great part due to the assistance of Pre
sident .Diaz and Mr. Llmantour, tbe
'Minister of Finance."
THE DEAD LIVE
HE SUCCEEDS IN RESUSCITATING
DEAD CATS AND 'DOGS AND RE
STORING 'LIFE TO THEM.
NEW YORK, May 12. Dr, Robert
Colcmui Kemp of this city, has Inform
ed the Academy of iMedlclne that from
experiments made 'by himself upon
dogs, ho Is convinced that human be
lugs under certain conditions, can be
resuscitated after death.
Kemp's method is to make an incl
sion between the ribs and to thrust in
two fingers until they actually touch
the heart. The heart Is then pressed
Against the ribs, giving it the motion of
.the natural beat. At 'the same time
-saline solution is Infused Into the pa
tlent and respiration is induced by
means of a pump. An intubation tube
Is attached to the pump and thrust
down the patient's throat as far as the
windpipe. Massage of the hearts starts
the human mechanism, so to speak, and
other methods restore the other func
tions, so that the patient who was
dp ad, actually lives again.
Dr. Kemp says: "In' operating upon
dogs which hud been killed with chlo
roform we succeeded in 'resusgltating
eleven out of twenty-three subjects.
The dogs lived upward of twenty-four
hours, though we waited from two to
sixteen minutes after the heart, expos
ed to Uew, had ceased to beat."
Kemp declared that exposure of the
heart Miowed that the dogs had died
absolutely, but after resuscitation they
not only lived and were conscious, but
some of them walked around, ate,
drank and appeared nerfectly normal.
That their recovery was not permanent
was due to the fact that they could not
be kept quiet after the operations.

MARCONI'S WIRELESS TELEGRA
PHY IS 'NOT THE SUCCESS IT
APPEARED TO BE AT FIRST.
NEW YORK, May" S. A dispatch to
the Sun from 'Halifax, N. S., says: In
the House of Commons at Ottawa to
day, W. S. -Fielding, 'Minister of Fi
nance, said In regard to the Marconi
wireless telegraph operations, that
some hitch had occurred, and It was
not the. success hoped for. Repeated
assurances were being given to the
Government tVat commercial messages
would shortly oe handled, but the Gov-
enment did not purpose to make fur
ther contributions.
Vyvyan, chief engineer and general
manager of the Table Head station, at
Glace bay. was asked If he had any
thing tji say In regard to this. " He re
plied .that there had 'been no hitch ot
consequence In the operations, except a
temporary breakdown of a mechanical
nature. The company was In constant
communication with Poldhu and Cape
Cod, and expected taresume operations
soon.
''NEW YORK, May 10. A cable to the
'World from , London says: The com
plete cessation of 'Marconi's pvomlsed
dally transatlantic service to the Times
by mareonlgraph without explanation
Is causing much unfavorable comment
here. When he refused the challenge
to demonstrate the practically of his
system to two leading electricians here
Marconi stated that Lord Kelvin was
to accompany him to Poldhu ToV a few-
days' test of his system. Nothing fur
ther having been heard of this test
Lord 'Kelvin was asked If it had been
mde and he gave this reif.y: "I was
obliged to postpone the visit to Poldhu
on account of an unexpected engage
ment. I was not going for the purpose
ing any tests, but to see It as a mat
ter of scientific Interest."
So far 'Marconi has given no demnn
stratlon to independent scientists of the
transmission of wireless messages
across the Atlantic, but 'has refused to
give any to "unfriendly crlUcs."

RUSSIA'S
NEW
CHINESE
TROOPS
RAfSING MANY REGIMENTS OF
SOLDIERS ALONG THE MAN-CHURIAN-KOREAN
BORDER.
A cprsnpndet of the N. C. Dally
News' 'says:' 'The Peking Government
have received a dispatch from the Tar-
tnr General of. Monkden, Fengtlen pro
vince (Lower Manchuria), H. E. Tseng
Ch'l, to the effect that Russian au
thorities are following the example of
the British In raising regiments of Chi
nese troops In Manchuria to serve as
auxiliaries to the Russian garrisons of
the three Manchurlan provinces of
Fengtlen, Klrln, and Hellung-chlang.
The personnel of the newly raised Chi
nese regiments mainly consist of
squatters from Shantung province. At
date .of writing (last March) the Rus
sian had, so far, raised a brigade of five
regiments from amongst the squatter
population of Shatzeho, near Fen-
ghuangchteng, In the vicinity of the
Yalu river, Manchurlan-Korean bord
ers, and another brigade of four regi
ments at a place called Fushun not
more thnn twenty-five miles from
Moukden city Itself. The pay and ra
tions of the Russianized troops are
nearly three times more than those
earned by the regular Chinese troops
and with the exception of thi h'gher
officers who are Russians; the' rest are
Chinese. The most curious thing in
regard to these new regiments Is that
the Russians belonging to them are all
preparing to dress themselves up exact
ly like Chinese, so that outsiders will
find It dlffcuit In the future to dis
tinguish Russlonlzed regiments from
the pure Chinese. "This," remarks
Tartar General Tseng Ch'l In his report
Is what makes me suspicious as to the
ultimate motives of the Russians and
herein lies the greatest danger to China
In regard to her Manchurlan posses
sions." In conclusion, the, Tartar Gen
eral's report states that it is rumored
that Russia intends to raise at least
50,000 Russianized Chinese regiments
within the next three years.

England In relations of amity with
France that have not ben equaled In
