This 1b the laconic comment heard from the lips of a member of (ho Nebraska Underwriters as sociation, the Nebraska representative of the Life Insurance trust, when he saw the annual report of the Bankers Reserve Life Association. It was an exclamation of dis tress and surprise, for that report showed conclusively that the "SKW ntMI'AW IS A I'KAllf." lo quote from the second explosive evidence of astonishment. Then he went on to say that the alien agents wcro a unit upon only one proposition at their secret meetings, and that was hostility to the Bankers Re serve Life. We have spent oodles of stuff In the attempt to down that institution. We have spared nothing that venom and malice could conceive or selfishness con trive, but to all appearances vi: iiavi: shot out wad against a stone wall and wasted all our powder In vain, for this young company makes a better showing for l'.Hil than any competitor In the Nebraska field.

When Writing to Advertisers Always Mention The Bee. Last Word from Baldwin (Continued from Fourth rage.) the men, seemed to comprehend the situ ation and comforted themselves with quiet demeanor. In a short time the Frlthjof had lowed up alongside America and It was with a good deal of relief that we climbed aboard to wait for a more favorable wind and tide for our work of landing. When the Frlthjof had landed most of its cargo on Alger Island we took the rest on board the America. Our plan la to leave as little as possible at Alger Island, and until the night comes on we hall continue mov ing our supplies thence .orthward As long as it Is pneslble we shall force the America through the lee. Then the dogs and ponies will carry a part of our ramp equipment, portable houses, etc., still farther along. Delayed hy Had Wenther. It had been my hope to equal the record established by Nansen end the duke of Abruzzl In their Arctic camps, but. I have found this Impossible. We experienced a great deal of bad weath-r on our voyage to Cape Flora; three weeks were consumed when one should have been sufficient. As a consequence we found the Ice In a more solid condition, later on, when wo were ready to proceed from Alger Island. Un fortunately, the Ice at this time was not strong enough to permit our taking the equipment in sledges over It, but it was sufficiently firm to hold the America back from any steady progress. However, though we are located farther south than some of our predecessors In pole searching, we feel confident that when the time comes for our final dash we shall more than make up the difference. Nansen had lees than forty dogs In his winter camp; we have more than 400. This Is not the only Item in which our equipment sur passes that of any polar explorer, but If It were, assuming that we have sufflclnnt food, we stand a better chance to reach the north pole than Nansen did In making his high est point. Franz Josef Land is not an undiscovered land to me and I know something of the long winter night through which we shall have to pass. What shall I say of that dreary movement of days, which are days In name only, of the awful stillness and the hitter cold which former explorers have written about? I shall not attempt to de scribe these experiences, because I believe that no one who has not lived beyond the Arctic circle and has not watched the shortening days can appreciate them. When one sees the dull glare of the sun for a few minutes only cut of twenty-four hours, always from the southward, and has lived through many days of the calm, awful stillness of these regions after the sun has disappeared, then he may know something of the majesty of King Cold Now and then there comes the Ice pressure and the hum mocks heave nnd crack with thunderous reverberations out of the eternal quiet. Tleauty enough there la also If one may b" poetic, but It Is a stern beauty, an austere coldness of aspect, that gradually grows more and more repellant. Occasionally we may venture out for walks over the Ice and when the moonlight or the glow of the aurora borealls is over the vast fields of Ice and snow th're are few scenes more delightful. Rut how we shall 'long to have the night end! Of Ihe life we shall live tip here I fear Us chief characteristic will be mono'ony. Of course, through the night, we shall try to busy ourselves with the allotted labors of taking observations, making full and elaborate notes. Now and then we shall make llttl excursions In various directions from camp to camp. We have so much food that It has not become necessary to estab lish a ration, though we have limited the use of aome of our Jellies and preserves We have excellent shelter from the cold and our portable houses are so arranged that they will fit snugly together when wr establish our final camp. The America Is fitted with electric lights, so that on board the ship the ventilation Is of the best. Three meals a day, warm clothes, a good bunk and something to do each day what more can any man want? There Is no reason why we should not be contented and happy. Forty men all told we are, and each one lakea his share of the work. We have several musical Instruments on our ship and many of the men csn play the different ones. There Is a fairly well stocked library of books and games of all kinds with which to vary the monotony. Boxing gloves, fencing foils and other gymnastic paraphernalia furnish us with needed exer cise when we cannot get out of doors. When I selected the men who make up our party I was very rareful to get men who were cheerful In disposition and versatile In amusements Thla rare has already proved to be of much Importance In our life here. Our acientlfic work thus far has been valuable. We have made ront'nunus meteorological observations and we have recorded regularly the force and direction of the winds, the phenomena of the clouds, etc. Our magnetic work has not ben lim ited to the mere locating of our ramps. We have done considerable surveying and charting, and before we get through we hope to have a fairly accurate map of euch parti rf Frani Joseph Ijind as we shall touch. So far as we ahall be able we shell eend meaaagea back to clv'lttatlon by means of our balloon and buoys. Several of theee buoys have already been atarted on their way and long before we return many of our meaaagea and reports should be In the pos aeaslon of our frlenda. BVBLTN BRIOGS BALDWIN.
