George Comer of the New tandon whaling schooner A. T.

Time, he writes, does not hang heavily on his hands In the desolate regions, be- cause he keeps Investigating. He would, however, like to know who has been elected president of the United States. Besides studying the region In which he la now, he has spent a good deal of time exploring .the Island of Southampton, about which little has been known, and has made a new chart of the place. One of his letters written last October, but Just now received by CapL B. S. Osbon, chair man of the executive committee of the Arctic club, Is given below: "In our cruising this past summei we Increased our knowledge of the island of Southampton, and ao I have made a rough drawing of It in the hopes that It may be useful in correcting the present charts.

In the summer skin tents were used and trips taken to other hunting grounds. In 1897 I met these people and got them to give me the number of men, women, boys and girls that were then living on the island. This waa done by placing as many stones in one pile as there were men and the same with the women, and so on, this made 68 in all. But as with all natives, they spoke of tbe others who lived In a distant part of the island as bad people, so that even on this Island they had their feuds, and no doubt fought among themselves. We have been cruising In the boats for whales from May 11 to September 22. A number of whales have been seen, but It has not been our good fortune to get them all.
