A BIG POLAR COI Duelling Shot Fired in War Over Disc graphic Society Demands Proof F its Medal UntU a Commission Reports Made by Comma Washington, D. C.?Explorers and Arctic experts the world over now almost unanimously hail Dr. Cook and Commander Peary as dual discoverers of the North Pole. All agree that the credit for reaching the top of the earth belongs to America. Even the German critics, who at first doubted Cook's story, agree that Peary has succeeded. Letters from Commander Robert E. Peary are in the possession r* v* \ . ,u. Aia it jfeary I charges that Cock took undue advantage of his own preparations to reach the pole, and cites as an example Cook's taking for expedition purposes the dogs which had been bred and trained for Peary. It is also said that Peary gives facts and figures to show that certain reports made by Cook could not be substantiated. One of these letters, the publication of which will prove the opening gun in a scientific battle, is said to be In the possession of Mrs. Peary in the Peary bungalow at Eagle Island. uaution will te the watchword of the National Geographic Society, according to the decision of the Board of Managers, which met to consider the subject of the discovery of the North Pole. The society will await the detailed reports of both Commander Peary and Dr. Cook. They will not accept the word of any one regarding the details of the trip to the pole until it has been subjected to the scrutiny of a qualified geographical commission of recognized standing. This action is not taken for the purpose of throwing any doubt on the veracity of either explorer. It is unlikely that the action taken would have been brought about by the simple announcement from Peary that he had discovered the pole. It would not have been occasioned by the announcement of the discovery by Dr. Cook had his journey been made in an official capacity. It is the fact that there has developel rival claimants for the pole almost colncldently that has necessitated the society's assuming this position. It is feared in Washington that the known rivalry between Dr. Cook and Commander Peary will develop a contention?certainly a long one. and perhaps an acrimonious one. Commander Robert E. Peary's claim that he was the first to reach the North Pole was the opening shot in what probably will be the greatest scientific controversy tht ever absorbed the attention of the civilized world. It struck hojne. It reached Dr. r reaerick A. Cook in Copenhagen, and this was his answering volley: "Commander Peary, of course, can say what he wishes. I am not accustomed to indulge in controversies. All I have to say about Commander Peary is that, if he says he reached the North Pole, I believe he reached the North Pole." , Bays Conditions Were Favor* able to Both Explorers. Berlin.?Dr. Hellman, Director of the Meteorological Institute of Berlin, had this to say on the polar achievements made known In the last week: "8everal fortunate circumstances, but especially the favorable condition of the polar ice, having been encountered at the same time has made possible the discovery of the North Pols by two daring and tried polar explorers, each operating duriaj the seme year, hat gaits independently of eech other." - -i. . 7? 1 YOUGH FOR US ALL: W. A. Ropers, in the New York Tlerald. 1TROVERSY IS OB oiery of the North Pole-National Ge rom Both Men-Votes to Postpone i of Experts Has Passed on the tnder Peary and Dr. Cook. A special cable says the Standard Copenhagen correspondent quot? Cook as saying: "Having a suspicion that Peary ha succeeded. I was more than eaeer 1 reach civilization in order to publis my results, which I hope Peary wi testify to." Evidently with foresight of tl coming conflict for the honors of di coverv, the National OooTnpbio P< tional Geographic Society decided 1 take no action with regard to hono to Arctic explorers until after detaiU observations and records are su' mitted to, and passed upon by, coc petent authorities." This statement from the heads < an organization of which Peary at Cook are both members showed plai; ly that the society, while not official corroborating Peary's claim, declint to accept the decision of Danish scle: tists that Cook's records proved 1 reached the pole. Dr. Cook, according to his presei plans, will arrive in New York Se tember 20 or 21, on the Scandinavia American liner Oscar II., which raeai that the two rivals for the first horn of the greatest feat of exploration 4 00 years may reach their home ci within a few days of one anotherperhaps within a few hours.

If this is done once a woek the pipes will seldom need to be taken down to clean.?New Haven Register. TO WASH THE FACE. This seems unnecessary information, but I can assure you few people know how to do it properly. Use water as hot as you can stand, together with a generous lather of castile soap. Rinse with tepid water; last of all spray the face with cold water. This cleans the pores of the skin, while preventing them from sagging. If your face is very dusty, first rub cold cream into the skin and wipe off with a towel before beginning the washing operation. A pure white complexion powder does not hurt any skin and aids in keeping it clean.?New Haven Register. SCENTED PILLOWS. Take your choice of pine or lavender.

Over this is drawn a pretty little white slip, of the sort used to cover baby pillows. For couches and out of doors, more serviceable materials are used. For pine pillows, a cover of natural colored linen, embroidered perhaps in wood brown, is very pretty. Grass green linen is also suitable for the purpose, and cool looking. The lavender pillow should be inT cased in lavender, embroidered in a ' lighter shade, or one of the pretty white cretonnes, covered with sprigs of lavender. ? The pillows are not only pleasant to have, but they frequently are an actual aid In producing refreshing sleep, since certain odors are known to have a soothing effect.?Philadelphia Bulletin. > FOR INSIDE PAINTING. 58 An experienced painter has given . ^ the following directions for inside Q painting: The first thing is to have the room 11 free from dust; the next essential thing is to kill the knots of the wood. ie "When the work is knotted, proceed to 8" prime it, which must be made to dry . c- wilt uo uo unitormlty in the finishing to coat, but it will leave some parts dead rs and others of a shining surface.

RED SPIDER A TERROR. Destroying Cotton and No Remedy is Found to Meet Situation. Lexington, Special.?For several years the red spider has been doing considerable damage to the cotton at Batesburg and Leesvillc.
