lions of whales should be discovered, it would be impossible, argue these jiers*ms, for the whale fishers to get to them. Should the pole itself be reached, they a: pie, the lucky explorer would find it imp-'Ssible to bring a piece of it away with him as a trophy. Indeed ho might find it dniieult to determine where tin fade wa« a l'n r he had r< ieh. d ita im-

mediatc vicinity.

V l *< !d l **r A:lveuturo. But the arctic explorer neeil not be deterred or discouraged by these utili- i tarian. not to say sordid, views. Doiihtleas the public is tired of the arctic expedition which ends in disaster, in starvation, in the sacrifice of valuable lives. The public never hears of an arctic exp- dition that it does not at once begin t<o think of the r • uing party or parties which will have to follow in its footsteps. But the public is not weary of efforts in the poiar world which are properly planned and equipped—efforts which reduce risk to life to such a minimum that it n cd scarcely ho considered

at all.

Mankind will never weary of stories of adventure from real life, and an arctic exjtedition is necessarily a series of adventures. It i- a struggle against the adverse conditions of nature in a region where difficulties are many and dangers are great enough to test the courage of the participants. Until human nature shall have been radically changed there will be enormous popular interest in arctic work, and the polar explorer who actually accomplishes something, who knows \\ hat lie wants to do and goes about it in a businesslike manner, need never fear that the interest and sympathy of the masses of the people will ipit be with him. As to the importance and value of arctic exploration there is no longer any question in the minds of men whose opinions count for much. The best evi deuce of ibis is the fact that the most zealous supporters of arctic effort are the scientific men of the world, Die men who know that every important science which has for its aim the study of our earth must forever remain incopiplete and unsatisfactory if the conditions existing in the inner and now unknown polar area are left in mystery. Tiio Objective Do hit. While tlie north pole is directly or indirectly the objective point of a majority of arctic explorers, the best scientific judgment is that it is not necessary to reach the north pole in order to solve what is kie.au as ihe polar problem. That problem i J simply. What lies within the undiscovered country? There area luiuiLiu square miles or the earth in which man has never set his foot. Theories as to what exists there range all tho way from the open polar sea, with a mild climate and inhabited, or at least inhabitable, hi ids, to a great glacier cap upon tho axial point of our earth aUO miles in diameter and thousands of feet in vertical thickness. Extreme as the-e two theories are, they have bolh been advocated by men of learning. There are strung arguments iu favor of both. Who is to decide between them? Who is to determine if the truth lies in either extreme,

The explorer who solves the arctic probUm may <t may not go to the north pole, ii 1 e does go tu that spot where all lines of longitude converge, where therq is no east, west or north, and no dir* ( Son but south, he will do a wonderfully nisutiouul thing, which will catch tlie imagination of the world as no other feat in exploration has done since the discovery of America, lint scientific men and eminent geographers agree that in all probability the arctic problem will be as well solved by penetration to the eighty-sixth or eighty-seventh parallel of latitude as by reaching the i»ole itself. Man has already reached within 440 statute miles of the pole. That was the (H)int reached by Lockwood and Drain ard of the (ireoly expedition. If this cat be cut down one-half, if some one will only penetrate 200 miles farther within the unknown country, the jadar problem will be solved, for the simple reason that what is found there will pretty surely dett rmine what lies beyond.

tho pole. That there is such a current admits of but little doubt. How strong or steady it is, whether it flows with sufficient force to carry a ship through in tho time th: t men can support life in those latitudes, remains to be seen. Dr. Nansen has not underrated tho seriousness of liia undertaking. Every provision that the most careful study could suggest has becu made. He goes provisioned for six years, anticipating that at least three or four years will be required to drift through the Arctic sea front Siberia to Spitzbergen or Greenland. My own opinion, if it be worth anything, is that Dr. Nansen will never drift nearer tin* polo than the east const of Franz-Josef Land, in about latitn ,e R4 or bo. But I do believe the day will come when the crushing of his ship or the failure of his plans will make it necessary for him to abandon the Fram and take to the pack ico in his small boats—of which he has an ample supply —and make his escape to civilization. This, I have no doubt, lie will be able to do. Travel over the frozen surface of the Arctic sea has again and again been proved safe and practicable. No more courageous man than Dr. Nansen ever embarked on a polar errand. None better fitted than he for a life of hardihood and danger could b" imagined. He is an athlete, the second fastest skater in Norway, where every one skates, and an expert on the skis, or Norwegian snowshoes. He is besides a man of infinite courage and almost fa- ' natieal persistence of purpose. Fridtjof i Nauseu is today without question the ideal arctic explorer, and the world waits with almost impaiit nt interest theresult of his bold effort to cross the Arctic ; ocean in a ship. We Are the People. Lieutenant Peary, who is now in west j Greenland waiting for n chance to resumo ins exploration of that country, is | well known in Washington, where he lived for a time, and where his brave I wife’s people still live. Peary astonished ! the world with his success in traversing j the ice cap of Greenland. 1 remember ! meeting bluff old Commander Irminger of the Daunish navy in Copenhagen Inst j summer. He had been in the arctic ! country himself and knew of its toils and its hardships. His admiration for 1 the feat performed by Peary, after breaking his leg, was unbounded. “You | [ Americans beat the world anyway," he | commented. “Nothing stops you. A , broken leg is merely an incident. Diflii culties at which other men pause or re- I treat from you march straight over. If my friend Dr. Nansen does not reach the ! l>ole in a year or two, I fear the honor of ■ its discovery will go to one of your conn- !

trymeu.”

Lieutenant Peary may not reach the jiole, but he is likely to go nearer it than any one else has ever been. Next April j he will leave his comfortable house at McCormick bay and with dogs and : sledges travel as fast to the north as he , can. Forty days will see him, barring i accidents, in the vicinity of tho northern coast of Greenland. Then he will | establish a supply sta^on to fall back j upon and make an effort to push on as | far as the laud goes. There is not tuueli ! doubt that the continent of Greenland extends no farther than the eighty-'-"' end parallel of north latitude. Tho land : which lies a.ill larther north, and whose 1 coa-t was trav. r«*d by Lock weed ; Brainutu .u> far as iutuude N> degrees 34 ; minutes, is a series of outlying islands.! How much beyond the point reached by

Lockwood and Brainard these islands | chaunt:

extend is problematical. There aro r -asons for believing they extend as far us

latitude 85 and possibly 8(3.

Whithersoever they lead, there is much i confidence among Lieutenant Peary’s friends that he will follow them as far as they go. In this way, in the effort to trace the most northerly limits of the Greenland continent and its outlying islands, he is likely to approach nearer to the jafle than man ever was before. The

„ --n'

friends is that he will conclude his work «"• y ' »•* T.i. “ r months he hopes to trace out the northern coast of thatstrange, glacier covered land and return to his house at McCorabout the end of August and convey Ins brave wife, the Greenland born child and his party back to the L’nited States. A ICouml Trip Ticket. Still another exjieditiou to the pole, or at least in its direction, may start the coming spring. Jackson, art English gentleman of fortune and arctic enthusiasm, lias just returned from a preliminary expedition to Nova Zembla. Home time ago it was announced that he would start for tho pole this year. Then it was given out that he had abandoned the effort. Nowit is rumored again he will go, after all. His plan is a sound one. It is to establish headquarters at Frauz-Josef Land, iu about latitude SO, and to move northward thence toward the pole, establishing advanced posts as he goes. Franz-Josef Laud is undoubtedly the triu* gateway to the j*>le to one who is willing to devote several years to the effort. It can usually be reached in July or August, though this is by no means certain iu any given y ear. But once there and headquarters established, uu explort r will find that the laud stretches nearer to the jade than in any other part of the world. There is not’ much doubt that in this region laud, whether detached islands or considerable laud masses, extends lieyond tin eighty-fifth parallel of latitude. Walter Wellman.

From here it was an easy matter to reach the corridor on the lower Hour and conceal themselves.

Watson Pitzer, an associate of Cal’s and a son of Dr. Pifzer. one of the most prominent residents of Tipton, has been arrested on suspicion of being concerned in the escape. Pitzer visited Armstrong Saturday night and is supposed to have given him the saw to cut his way out. The people are greatly excited, and if Armstrong is caught there may be a

lynching.

No tidings of the escaped convict have been received, but every effort is being made to effect his capture.
