FATE OF THE ANDREE EXPEDITION.
WINNIPEG (Man.), July sih, Rev. Dr. Ferlies, a Church of England clergyman, arrived from New York Factory,
Northwest Territory, to day and brings authen- tie information of the fate of the explorar Andrée and his companions. Two years ago, 1,800 miles north of York, a party of Esqui; 'maux, under the leadership of “Old Huskie," saw the Andrée balloon alight on a plain of
north of Fo
snow in that vicinity, which is about two miles of Fort Churchill, Three men emerged from the balloon, and some of Huskic's people approached them out of curiosity. As they did so one of Andrée's companions fired off a gun This is the signal to uncivilized people for battle. It is regarded as a challenge, and almost instantly the natives fell upon the three explorers and massacred them. "Everything pertaining to their outfit was carried away to „O the homes of the natives on the northern
borders of the Arctic regina,
•'.
Old Huskie himself gave this information to Ralph Alstine, agent for the Hudson Bay Company, and the story, after being investigated by Dr. Ferlies, was told by him to-day. He says that there is little room for doubt, as fre- quent reports have since come of strange im plements which the northern natives have in their possession, a telescope being particularly described. dese ARAThe Hudson Bay Company has recently offered a reward for the recovery of any portion of the outfit belonging to Andrée, and though St.natives have gone on a search for them, they
have never returned, believing, as Rev. Dr Ferlies says, they will in some way be punished, for they now understand that it was not an erattack upon them, but an accident by which the gun was discharged, that precipitated the

SUNSTROKE AND HEAT STROKE.
There are two forms of sunsiroke. The mit form is that known as hent exhaustion. This manifests itself in the cases of people who are overcome by the heat without being actually sunstruck. The skin is pale, cold and clammy, and the pulse feeble. While death sometimes results, the patients under good treatinent will usually recover. A person affected this way should be removed to a shady spot, Inid on his back and have the head and chest dashed with cold water. Spirits of ammonia (hartshorn) should be applied to the nostrils, and sometimes it is necessary to administer small quantities of stimulants,
- Heat stroke or insolation is the serious form of this trouble and the one to be most guarded against. In cases of real insolation the face becomes purple, the eyes bloodshot, the veins swollen and corded,
and the skin dry and burning hot to the touch. It is not always fail, but many of those whose lives are saved are ever afterward invalids with brain power more or less impaired. The effect of the sun's heat seents to be most marked on the brain' and spinal marrow. Then real insolation occurs the brain becomes so heated that the human heat centres in the brain which control the production of bodily heat are affected and the temperature rises from the Had Andrès made friends with the natives, healthy mark of 984 degrees as high as tro or it is held that he would have been safely con-higher, and often keeps on rising for some ducted south, and would eventually have reach-time after death.***

The British Government, convinced of the utility of the pom-pom gun, so much used in the South African campaign, is making experi- ments with various types of this arm with a ' view to its adoption in the British and Indian Armies. Three types of pom-pom are being fried. One is the arm used by the Boers and manufactured some fifteṛn" years ago by Messrs. Vickers, Sons, and Maxim. This is a * gun of low velocity and comparatively short range, but it was the effect of this weapon, as used by the Boers, that induced the British military authorities, to make it one of their arme.
