FIXES THE TIME TO A WEEK Urltlah Naval Officer Who Reached Point of Earth Farthest Sooth U In ' Omaha Pars Visit to Fort Omaha. " Lieutenant Sir Earnest Shaklcton, for merly of the British royal navy and the man with the "Carthent south" record, us that ha expects the south pole will La discovered by Captain Scott of Kusland uu or about December 22. 1911. When asked why he set this date as the time the discovery would be made, he said: "That will bo at the height of summer In the south polar regions and 1 feel that Captain Scott will reach the foul within s week of December &i, 1VU. 1 am con fidtnt that he will get it, but should he fail. 1 will go after It again mysaif and 1 II get It. However, i uo not anticipate that i will be obliged to httike another Juurney Into the south polar regions. Cap tain ficott sails from JCnglaud the first of next June and wl'l leave New Zealand In November, uo he ought to be able to reach tne pole at th time 1 have indicated." Lieutenant Shackleton arrived in Omaha Kriday morning from Sioux City at 10:W. Ills train was ten minutes ahead of time and the reception committee which was te, meet him at the Union siation had not arrived. He expressed himself as being better pleased than had there been a dele gation at the station to pay him honor, lie was glad to escape from anything vtilch flavored of formulity and took a cao fur the Henshaw hotel. Polat Farthest aoatu. In 1W1 Lieutenant Shackleton reached the point 12.1U south, but on his last trip In l:M he beat his own record and went as lar mi VH.i, which he claims Is the biggest Jump ever made In polar explorations. Speaking of the expense connected with Hie trip, he taiJ. "1 carried tiio bauy my self. 1 hud no support from the govern ment and by getting some ot my Influential friends to stand back ot me 1 borrowed enough money to make the trip. My last journey to the south cost about Jl76,OX). W hen I returned the Parliament thought that my scientific discoveries were worth recognition and gave me tlQO.OOO, which enabled nie to pay oft the greater portion of my expense. "Since last November I have been lectur ing and writing and 1 have clearej off tud.OOO more of the debt. I am working now to square the wholo account. Many people Imagine that I urn getting fabulously rich, but as a matter of fact 1 am only paying my bills and am not clear jet." When questioned concerning the rate of tpecd he traveled while In the polar re gions, he said. "The bei day I ever I. ad wm when I made twenty-nine and a In f miles. That day we put sails on eur fUdiicj and made fine headway, and I think that the worst day 1 had In the mat ter of covering distance was when I only succeeded In making a headway of 600 yards. We worked hard that day from 7 o'clock in the morning until 6 o'clock at night. In reality we covered a much greater distance, but we had to go over the route several times to move our entire camp along with us. Another day we only made three miles in fourteen houra." It r search Work In Canada. Lieutenant Shackleton will leave here for Lincoln and then he will return east and north to Canada. He expects to re turn to England on June 1 and after a few months' stay at hla home, he plans on returning to Canada in October to take up research work and explorations for private business concerns. He will take with him many of the scientific men who accompanied him of his last trip south. He said that he has attended a number of base ball games and enjoys the game. He says that it Is very scientific, but that it will never make, headway In England, where cricket his a strong hold. Cricket, he declared, gives more chance for indi vidual honor ana Is quite popular on that account. "King Edward," he said, while discussing the death of England's late ruler, "was a good friend of mine and ia loss wilibe felt throughout the entire country, but Ueorge has taken hold of the reins and will make a good kliife. He is a strong character and has been trained for the position he now occupies." The Palimpsest club gave Lieutenant Shackleton a luncheon at the Omaha club Friday afternoon at l:3u and he was en tertained duiuip the day by the Military club of the Department of the Missouri headquarters. Friday evening he took din ner at the Menithaw In company with a number of the leading cltisens of the city. The lecture Friday night on his last trip to the south will be held in the Auditorium and will be illustrated with stereoptlcuu views and moving pictures taken during the Journey south. He will be introduced to the people of Omaha by John Lee Webster, president ot the Palimpsest club.

SHnmrnamana BONUS 0FERED FOR TAVERN Omaha Proposed to Give 02,000 for Erection of $16,000 Hotel Frivolous Youth ot Eighty la Repressed. Henry T. Clarke and Uncle Joe Rodman, two of the very oldest settlers now left in Omaha, indulged in a reminiscent discus sion this morning. The subject of the talk was an article published in a St. Paul paper last Saturday under the head, "Forty Years Ago Today." The article said: "Omaha offers a bonus of I2,000 In lands and money to any one putting up a 116,000 hotel." Neither Clark or Redman can recall ex actly If any one picked up the fat bonus, and neither could they agree which hotel, If any, resulted from the advertisement. Mr. Clarke did know that he went and saw James B. Kitchen, then conducting a hotel at St. Joseph, Mo. "Kitchen did not know whether a four story tavern would pay In Omaha," i-ald Mr. Clarke, "but 'after a wiille he came and looked the ground over, and later the Paxton hotel was built." "Yes, and Bill Paxton put the fifth story on the building," said Uncle Joe. S. C. Barnes here Interrupted to say something about the old Herneon house. Reproach for "Youth." "Young man, you keep still," said Mr, Clarke to Barnes, who Is something over SO. "You weren't here in those days." Young Mr. Barnes subsided, as he smil ingly stroked his patriarchal white beard. "Yes, Barnes, you should not get into the this discussion," said Redman, "because we'll take you back so far you'll be lost." Then Uncle Joe ruminated a moment and continued: "Land in those days was worth DO cents an acre, and if any man got S;2,000 worth and hung onto It he could build a good many hotels today. But I don't think anybody took up that offer. It they did I don't recall it." ' "That story is probably like the one which said Henry T. Clarke lost a railroad for Bellevue by stopping to change his shirt," said Mr. Clarke, with Just a touch ot sarcasm, "whereas at that time I was in the mountains." Then the two fathers of Omaha began to bear tribute to the worth of "Bill" Pax ton, Dr. George L. Miller and Ears Millard. Miller a Uooster. "Miller had no money." said Uncle Joe, "but he had a newspapS-, and newspaper fellers always have a pull. Paxton put up hla money all the time, and Miller backed him up strong, as he did everything that would boost Omaha." "Yes, and Esra Millard built houses for the Incoming people," said Mr. Clark. "They were small houses, but as fast as the youngsters came he added another story. He was about the only banker, aside from Paxton, who ever did anything particular to help the city whose growth made their holdings so valuable." Mr. Clark and Uncle Joe were taking to the public library for safe-keeping, some old Bibles and some pictures belonging to the former which he desires to have pre served. In one book is a history of his mother's family for several generations, and one of the Bibles Is of the date 1808. He sets great store by the books and as he Is to be away for some time he wants them In a safe place. Lawyer Fined; is Sent to Jail Henry E.
