Mom real.— In May, 191f>, Corporal
Cornelius of the Royal Northwest
mounted police left Edmonton for
[let's*'hei island. He departed quietly,
without any flourish of iruni|«*ta. He
returned the other day to civilisation
again for the Brst time, as silently as
lie had left it. Over six years of his
life has hern spent In the Arctic wilder
ness. four of them in the sole com
pany of two Eskimo murderers, aen
lanced in liiH, and freed by order of
the govern men t later.
Two years were passed at Fort Mc
Pherson. where the Idg supply of pro
visions and building material were dla- ,
posed, com I'm table winter quarters e»
tablisheil. and patrol* of the surround
ing country undertaken.
The two Eskimo murderers who were
taken out by the corporal and offered
their freedom were ao much taken
with the ways of the white man that
they asked permission to enter the
service of the police, and were both
engaged, much to their delight. They
tendered great service as guides and
Interpreters, ami the white man s law

Two Years in Wild*.
In 11*1 T Corporal Cornelius was
Joined by Constable Rriekie and tlie
two set out for Herschel Island where
they s|H-nt two year* with frequent
patrol* in the far ■ •■>rin-rs of the un
charted wilds. Tie if next move was
along the shore* ol the Arctic lo Coro
nation gulf, a dog * -d trip of some snO
miles, where amitlaa t"o years were
passed ip patrols to Bathurst Inlet,
Kent peninsula. .All poinl* on the
south Hnd west sides of Victoria island
to Victoria I.and and Prince Alb* rt
sound were made during thul period.
The final trip was taken from Coro
nation gulf via Rear lake to Port Nor
man. down the river ro Kurt McPher
son. then north to Hersehel island, and
bark by the eonst to Coronation gulf
oure more, with another return trip
via Herschel Island through Eort
McPherson up the Mackenzie river and
home by the summer steamboat This
latter trip was taken by dog sled, a
distance of 1.100 miles being covered
The total patrols by dog -led last win
ter ran around 2.Sou miles.
New headquarter* were made at
Fort Epwortli, the patrol, accompanied
by Staff Sergeant Clay, establishing
this post. The party lived In snow
huts for the greater part of this time,
and subsisted on die simple diet of
the wild* iked out by such ration* as
they were able to carry on sled*. They
built n wooden but at Port Epworth
however ami enjoyed a mild taste of
civilization.
Two Are Acquitted
In 1018. two alleged Eskimo mur
derers were brought in by the mas'
route hy Sergeant ConwAy These two
men. Kavagutis and Koniuk. had been
tried by Inspector Phillips for the mur
der of an Eskimo woman, whom both
of them claimed a* wife They were
however acquitted owing to lack of
evidence, and Clay Cornelius and
Hrockie took them back hy wav of
Herschel Island and the Arctic to Coro
nation gulf, where the two were al
lowed to rejoin their tribes.
Corporal Cornelius says that the
trial of the four Eskimos had had an
excellent effect on the general con
duet of the tribe* as a whole, while
conduct of the four principals has been
moat exemplary. Kayugana and Ko
niuk were seen several times on later
patrols, their bands being usually
found on the Ice al the head of the
Coppermine river, and each time the
patrol received a warm welcome
Despite their years of Isolation and
hardships both Corporal Cornelius and
Constable Brockle are looking forward
to a return to the North in the near
future. They will now enjoy a well
eaened holiday, and both are leaving
at once for their respective homes.

CAN OPEN ANY
SAFE WITH WIRE
King Victor Emmanuel Calls Lock
Specialist Europe's Most
Dangerous Man.
SERVICES A’UCH IN DEMAND
Employed by People of All Nation*
nu Profe**ional Men to Open
oafes That Have Jammed—
Does It by Sense of Touch.
Rome.—The uran whom King Vic
tor Kmuiunuel hails as the moat dan
gerous man In Europe Is neither Com
munist, Socialist nor criminal. lie,
like his father and grandfather be
fore him, keeps a store where safes
are sold. This in itself is not an un
lawful profession, but he inherited
from his father, besides the small
store off ttie Piazza dl Spragna, tbe
knack of being capable of opening any
safe in the world with Ihe help of a
bit of stiff wire.
Never in ids life lias he been forced
to break a safe o|«-n. lie bus been
summoned by people of all nations and
professional men to open safes thul
bad Jammed. Hut not only private in
dividuals call him, the oilier day King
Victor Emmanuel needed his services.
The king had left his keys in his pri
vate safe, where his wonderful collec
tion of coins is kept. He wus worried,
as his favorite amusement every day
I* rearranging these coins, lie w as very
much worried until they told him that
a s|s-eialist for safes lived in Rome
and would he called to the royal villa.
Hi* Real Nam* Withheld.
Mr. N (his real name must he kept
secret, as the tax collector would levy
a heavier income tax were it known
that lie was called to the villa)
liislt-m-d to the VIIIh Savoia and found
the king pacing up and down the
s! id',
“Yon must not damage the safe, as
there is my precious collection inside.”
said Ihe klig.
"No, jour majesty,” refilled Mr. X.
“I ib* not tiis-d even to damage the
lock." Mr. X looked with a profes
•i.mal air at the safe.
' I alii afraid you will find It a diffi
cult tssk, as It Is a Chubb Special."
said the king. Mr. X inserted the
wire, felt with Ihe wire Inside, ilell
ck'ely twisted It here and there, then
opened tlie safe door.
“Here, your majesty, your safe I*
opened."
The king was very much astonished,
and said: "You are tlie most danger
oils man I have ever met." Mr. X re
plied: “I would is* were I not hon
esl "
Mr. X is rarely in his store, as
his fame ha* traveled abroad and he la
often telegraphed for to stHrt at a
moment's notice Before the war he
was called many times to Berlin to
open tiic ex-kalser's safe and tie was
recommended also to Francis Joseph,
who often left his keys inside hla so
cret safe, and would allow no one but
Mr. X to open or try to o|ien It.
Many Diplomats Call Him.
Diplomats, lawyers, doctors, all call
him when they need a reliable doctor
for their safes. When asked how he
did the trick Mr. X said: “It Is
purely a ipiestlon of touch. I am like
u specialist who. without operating
■ an "11 hy examining a patient, by
touching him what Is flic matter In
side. Jumftl'Bg of safe* is like a case
of lin k law. With my wire I ran lo
cute tlie trouble inside the lock. Be
sldcs. my experience I inherited from
father, who In his time was the only
lock specialist in the world"
Sometimes it takes five m'notes, and
often tie has to prolie for ‘JO minutes
or half an hour, hut never in his life
has he had to damage a lock In order
lo open a safe. He Is the most ex
pert lock specialist In Europe and
with this talent has remained always
an honest man who glories in his pro
fession.—New York Tribone.
