the temple this morning we called upon the church architect brother truman 0 angell at his office on the temple templo block blocks and was much interested with some of the details of the design of that noble structure which he be kindly took the trouble to explain to us brother truman ha bm all the details reduced to mathematical pre precision cislOn and everything pert pertaining aiRing to th the actual work as ic it progresses sies 1 Is eo so nicely systematized that it g goes oes on like clock work eo so to speak where tho the mason masons saro aro are at work the walls are raised to the bottom of the elliptical elip windows or twelve feet four inches from th the tho point where the upper story will begin the architect assures us that ii if nothing unforeseen intervenes to prevent the walls can easily be raised to the latter point next hext season and probably somo some distance higher the architectural labor connected with the building is necessarily n IM f heavy on account of the peculiar character of the structure each part of it having an expressive and andi j symbol cymbol r ical leal meaning or significance it will bo be dissimilar 3 lu in many respects to any an y other

approached the pole whales whale became more abundant and the farther ho traveled in that direction the more interested he became at 76 deg the tiie compass dipped and became useless this he attributed to the he ells ekis existence tence of metals at the bottom of the ocean particles pal pai times tides ol 01 which were brought up upon the sounding led he the north star which was as vh visible ible ibie in the day time in that latitude as it is iu in this in tho night finally a barrier or belt of iee ice which proved to be twelve miles wide ide was reached an opening in this w wae was sought for and one was found but the current in a it was so swift as to make the passage impracticable with a whaler whale r I 1 in D this current were seen broad leaves and pieces of wood proving the existence of land on the other side some soma of the pieces of wood had bad up on them the mark m ark of tools some 0 01 the indentations being of such formation as to lead to the supposition that they were made mado with an adze this proved to him not only that there was land beyond but also that it was inhabited near the ice barrier the temperature pera ture was war comparatively mild and the water was of greener color captain tuttle and a number of other men traye trave traveled led bome some distance over the thu ice belt on the way one man slipped clipped into a fissure and was never seen any more the others then as a precautionary measure tied oars across their bacus backs and attached to each other by moans of ropes for purposes of mutual aid in case of another similar accident

been land nut but of this h he could not be bi positive incidentally tho the lecturer stated his conviction that captain hall the indefatigable explorer was polso poisoned nod by one or more of his fellow follow voyagers he heard him make a L at cincinnati a short timo defore his departure i in which ho he said with great de determination that he would reach the pole or never return alive capt hall was determined it wag was contended to push on in his hia explorations while some of the others became afraid aud and put him ot of the way one buddington being the party narty upon w bom whom
