But distance in the north cannot be measured by dividers. The ice pack permits no short cuts We were sixteen days out of Nome— time enough to traverse the distance four times over—before we caught our first rewarding glimpse of that rocky promontory that was to vield up. from its forbidding reaches, the secrets of another arctlc traged: I was at the masthead, high above the Ice level, searching the white stretches for the zig-zag leads of blue| that are the navigator's only means of { penetrating the great floes. It was mid-| night awhen the fog suddenly lifted and | there, stark black against the purplish | sky, the cliffs of Wrangel rose like a} forbidding wall acrogs the ship's path. Wo had been for ten days In the ice | pack. We had smashed our bow and! our engine had broken down. Only the | presence of a water-tight buikhead i d: prevented the ship from sinking. The men, from First Officer Olsen to Bob- | bie Clark, the cabin boy had met_the | emergencies with the best spirit of the! orth, and Juck Willlams and Joseph | arl, the engineers, had done a super-| human chore in keeping that limping | old engine going at all. i A sigh of rellef went up from the| entire crew when we bucked through ! e last cake of ice and entered the| stretch of clear water bordering the island. | No Sleep for Any One. | Neither Olsen mor 1 had taken our| clothes off since we entered the icej pack. That night there was no bed for! any one. A few of the Eskimos dozed f among the skin boats, the thong-lashed | sledges and the twenty shaggy-haired | dozs that cluttered the deck. Most of the Eskimos were gloomy at sight of the black cliffs. Except for Charile Wells, none of the white men were go- | ing to remaln on the island. To the] natives this first glimpee of their fu- ture home did not prove alluring. To an Eskimo life resolves itself into terms of foodand shelter, and the pros- pects of both seemed poor. The mc mentary e'ation on sighting the island vanished as swiftly as it had come. It was not until dawn. when a herd of walrus appeared on the edge of the | e pack, that the native huntsmen be- | gan to smile again. To the rest of us hope came surging back with the r 2 sun, for a new island lay revealed. night we had passed the cliffs head lay a_low coast, luxuriant vegetation. From the teashore a broad, grassy plain climbed gently to the snow-free mountafnous interior. All the forebodings 1 had entertained | for months seemed to melt as watched the sun splashing warmth upon the growing things of thls seemingly | genial island. After all, life here might | not be o bad. My mind leaped back | across the two ars that Crawford and his men had been marooned here, and | 1 began to think of the possible mean: by which they might have kept them- selves alive. There was driftwood in plenty. That was a hopeful sign. They could have built themselves warm and | substantial houses. There were polar hear tracks; we saw walrus and seal That meant fresh meat in plenty. Olsen said to me, voicing the hope that had been constantly in my mind: ; the ammunition has held out ¢l may be alive.” Fog Settles Agal .

To the left of the door stood an old stove, rusty and | fire-eaten, a little pile of firewood be- side it. She had made that stove herself out of empty kerosene tins.
