Pryor St. PREFERS MAN’S ATTIRE WHEN WINDS BLOW ,Mlss Leia Dean, a young woman of 23 SWims-s who refuses to divulge her present address, has a penchant for male attire on cold and windy days. She •adains the hobble skirt on the ground that it Impedes her free and easy stride, and positively refuses to be seen on the streets on a windy day in an old style gown that is liable to be wafted sMond by the brisk breezes, which pass tifea Candler building. I As the result of her very strong likes and dislikes, the young woman Is now a prisoner at police beadquarters with two mku< charges against her. On Wednesday morning, when she arose tn a chilled room and looked out op'the day. seeing that the wind was ma»y!ng the branches of a nearby tree, sbe promptly donned the attire of a male, even to the heavy and cumbersome shoes, and started forth on a stroll up IJfcacb.tree street. As Misa Dean had been arrested for vltAatir.g the law by dressing as a man iffiwo previous occasions, the familiar tfyl of her face in police circles proved Iter undoing. Wtrolman Lyman, strolling up Peach tree street near the English-American bidding, spied the young woman, unim peded by skirts and strolling jauntily along the thoroughfare. He promptly plhced her under arrest, and sent her to' police headquarters. There, to the great surprise of the turnkey, a big rutrolver was found in her hip pocket, so now there is a charge of carrying concealed weapons against her. Her case wfl be called for trial Wednesday after noon. corpsT sits up and SETTLES THE DISPUTE XEWaiuu N. J..

COOK CONFESSES HE ISN’T SURE HE FOUND POLE (By Associated Press.) • NEW YORK, Nov. 30.—Dr. Frederick A. Cook, the Brooklyn explorer, in an article which will be published in Hamp ton's magazine, confesses that he does not know whether he reached the north pole or not. Dr. Cook, who has been in hiding for over a year, has informed the editors of the magazine publishing his story that he will return to the United States with his wife and children December 22 in order to spend Christmas here. Dr. Cook, in his story, deals with the psychology of his adventure, and says. DOESN’T YET KNOW. “Cid I get to the north pole? Per haps I made a mistake in thinking that I did. Perhaps I did not make a htis take. After mature thought I confess that I do not know absolutely whether I reached the pole or not. This may come as an amazing statement, but I am willing to startle the world, if by so doing, I can get an opportunity to present my case. By my case I mean not my case as a geographical discov ered, but my case as a man. Much as the attainment of the north pole once meant to me the sympathy and confi dence of my fellow-man mean more. “If, after reading my story, you say: ‘Cook is sincere and honest; half crazed by months of isolation and hunger, he believed he reached the pole: he is not a faker,’ then I shall be satisfied.” Dr. Cook tells the story of his life and pictures what he calls the overpower ing ambition for exploration that beset him until it finally culminated’ in his effort to reach the pole. Was half mad. Dr. Cook declares at the time he con vinced himself that he had discovered the pole, he was half mad. He spent two vears in his quest and during that time endured hunger and privation that, he says, wdiild unbalance any mind. The explorer states that :t would be impossible for any man to demonstrate beyond question that he had been to the north pole. He characterized the re gion as a region of insanity, where one cannot believe the evidences gathered by one’s own eyes. He says that he had always .looked upon the discovery of the pole !as an achievement for his own personal satisfact.on, for the satis faction of a craving and desire that was greater than any other factor in his life. When he found how tremendous a sensation his statement that he had attained the pole created, he was over come with bewilderment.
