EXPLORER IS BACK HOME
New York. Aug. 30. Carveth
Wells, explorer, sailed into New
York harbor Friday from the "West
Indies with a tale of seeing a town
built in a hole in the ground.
"The town in a hole," he said, "is
on the island Saba, an extinct vol
cano rising Bheer from the sea. The
settlement is in the crater. The citi
zens are industrious but not, appar
ently, imaginative. They call their
town Bottom.
He said that when Mrs. Burt Mas
see of Chicago, whose husband back
ed the expedition, was about to chris
ten their ship the Mopelia, a barra
cuda thrust his head out of the sea
and swallowed the bottle of cham
pagne she intended to use in the cere
mony.
The Mopelia was skippered by
Count Felix von Luckner, German
sea raider of World war fame. In
cluded in the party were MacClel-
land Barclay, illustrator and Lowell
Thomas, author.
Mr. Wells said he was going back
next summer to study life in the
ocean depths.

a part of the sonsignment of mail
hat was placed on board the Zeppe
lin at Lakehurst. The Plattsmouth
men today received their cards back
in this city after a journey around
the world and which was made in
twenty-one lays, a world lecord in
circling the globe. The post cards
carry a large array of-postage which
in themselves adds to the value of
the card as a souvenier of the first
arunnd the world flight of the Zep.
Another mildly diverting sight is
that of a lady with about enough
clothes on to make a chigger a 'ker
chief, looking sniffy and offended
when she sees a coatless man in a
restaurant.
