SIXTH INSTALLMENT. THE CONQUEST OF THE POLE, s b By Dr. Frederick A. Cook. (Copyright, 1909, by ‘the New York Herald, company. Registered in Canada in dccordance with the Copyright Act. Cepyright in Mexico under the laws of' the Republic of Mexigo. All Rights Reserved.) Koolootingwah and Inugito had been our bedfellows for the entire morth- | ward run and they had gone through many dangerous and hard experiences together. We, therefore, felt more | keenly their departure than the going of the first six. We were at first lone- ly, but the exigencies of our problem were soon sufficiently engaging to oc- cupy every call and strain every fibre. Now our party was reduced to three, and, though the isolatfon was more oppressive, there were the usual ad- vantages for greater comfort and progress of a small family of workers. The increased number of a big expe- dition always enlarges the responsibil- ity and difficulties. In the early part of a polar venture this disadvantage is eliminated by the survival of the fit- test, but after the last supporting sleds return the men are married to cach other and can no longer separate. A disabled or unfitted dog can be fed to his companions, but an injured or weak man cannot bq put aside. Aa exploring venture is only as strong as its weakest member, and increased members, like increased links. in a chain, reduce efficiency. The personal idiosyncrasies and in- conveniences always shorten the day's march, but, above all, a numerous par- ty quickly divides into cligues, which are always opposed to each other, to the leader and to the best interests the problem in hand. With but two savage companions, to whom this ardu- ous task was but a part of an accus- tomed life of frost, I hoped to over- come many of the npatural personal barriers to the success of Arctic ex- peditions. One Degree in Three Days. By 'dead reckoning our position was Iatitude 82 deg. 23 min. longitude 93 deg. 14 min. A study of the ice seem- ed to indicate that we had passed be- yond the zone of ice crushed by the influence of land pressure. Behind were great hummocks and small ice, ahead was a_cheerful expanse of | larger floes, Using the accumulated vigor of man and beast we had ad- vanced a degree of latitude in three days. Our destination was about four Hundred and sixty miles beyond. But our life had assumed quite an- other aspect. Previously we permitted ourselves some luxuries. A pound of coal oil and a good deal of musk ox tai- low were burned each day to heat the igloo and to cook abundant food. Extra meals were served when an occasion | called for it and each man ate and | drank all he desired. If the stockings or the mittens were wet there was fire encugh to them out, but all of this must now be changed There was a short daily allowance of food and fuel—one pound of pemmi- | can per day for the dogs, about the same for men, with just a taste of | other things. Fortunately we were | well stuffed for the race with fresh | meat in the lucky run through game | lands. At first no great hardship followed the changed routine. We filled up suf- | ficiently en two cold meals and used superfluous bodily tissue. It was mo | ble to jump on the sled for | a breathing spell, as we | had done along the land i With over- loaded sieds the drivers must push and pull at the sleds to aid the dogs, and I searched the troubled ice for an easy route, cutting here and there with the axe to permit the passing of the ds. Stripped for the Race. ‘We were finally stripped for the race; man and dog must walk along together through storms and frost for that elusive pivot. Success or failure | depended mostly upon our ability to transport nourishment and to keep up the muscular strength for a prolonged period. As we awoke on the following morn- out of the eye port th2 g along the northeast, throwing a warm orange glow on us that gladdened our hearts. perature was 63 degrees The tem- below zero Terrific Storms Pile Great Fahrenheit; the barometer was steady and high. There was almost no .wind and not a cloud lined the dume of pale purple blue. -After two cups of tea, a watch sized biscuit, a .chlp of frozen meat aud a bowlder of pemmican we crept out of the bags. The shivering legs were' pushed through bearskin = cylinders, hich served as trousers, the feet were worked into frozen boots ané cwen we climbed into fur coats, Kkicked the front out of the snow housg and danced about to start/the fires of the heart. Quickly the camp furnishings were tossed on the sleds and securely lashed down. The dog traces were gathered into the drag lines and with a vigor- ous snap of the long whip the willing creatures bent to the shoulder straps. The sleds groaned and the unyielding snows gave a metallic ring, but the train moved with a cheerful pace. Unne noona terronga dosangwah"” (good land out of sight today) we said to one another, but the words did not come with serious intent. - In. truth, each in his own way felt keenly that we were leaving a world of life and posible comfort for one of torment ami suffering. Heiberg Island was alréad - only a dull blue haze, while Grant Land was making fantastic figures of its peaks and ice wall: Wave of Mirages. The stamp of reality had given place to a wave of curious mirages. Some peaks seemed like active volcanos, others rose to exaggerated heights and pierced the changing skies with multi- ple spires like church steeples. Alto- gether this unexpected panorama of the upper surface of Grant Land un- der the influence of optical illusions gave us considerable entertainment. At every breathing spell the heads :urned ‘to the land and every look gave a fiew prospect. From beiching vol- canos to smoking cities of ‘medern bustle the mirage gave suggestive bits of scenes, put a more desolate line of coast could not be’ imagined. Low wind swept and ice polished mountains were separated by valleys filled with great depths of snow and ice. This interior accumulation moved slowly to the sea, where it formed a low ice wall, a glacier of the malaspina type, but its appearance wWas' more Ilke that of heavy sea ice; hence the name of the fragments from this glacier— floeberg, which, seen in Lincoln sea and resembling old floes, were sup- posed to be the product of the up- building of the ice of the North Polar sea Late in the afternoon the land sud- denly settled as if by an earthquake. The pearly glitter which raised it darkened d a purple fabric was drawn over the horizon, merging im- perceptibly with the lighter purpie blus of the upper skies. We saw the fand, however, repeatedly for sevéral days whenever the atmosphere was in the right condition to elevate the terres- trial contour lines. ’ All Conditions Favorable. Everything was in our favor in this march. The wind was not strong and struck at an angle, making it possible to guard the nose by pushing a mitten under the hood or by raising the fur lad hand. The snow was hard, and in fairly large floes, separated ssure lines, offered little trouble, At the end of a forced effort of four- teep hours the register. Indicated twénty-nine miles Too tired to begin the construction of a house at once, we threw ourselves down on the sledges for a short breath- ing spell and fell asleep. Awakened about an hour later by a strong. wind, we hastened to - seek shelter. The heavy floe upon which we rested had several large hummocks and oyer ta the lee of one of these was found suit- able snow for a camp. Lines of snowy vapor were rushing over the pack and the wind came with a rapidly incress- ing force. But the dome was erected before we suffered severely from the. blast, and under it we crept out of the coming stormg into warm furs. It blew flercely that nightg but in the morning the storm eased to 4 steady draught, with a temperature of 59 degrees below. At noon we emerged. The snow grays had béen swept from the frigid dome, but to the morth there remained a low black line over a pearly cloud which gave us much uneasiness. I* was a narrow belt of water-sky and e A Life Sapping W#. gfi"m which b the nose. We had this 'ou’;d soften with the . and that 7 nful an- gle and brought tears. The mmoistened lashes quickly froze together In wink- ing we were forced to halt fre- quently to unseal the eyes with the warmth of the uncovered hand. In the meantime we found the nose tip- ped with a white skin and it aleo re- quired nursing. The entire face was surrounded with ice. This experience brought warm lane guage, but there was no redress. If ‘we aimed to succeed the face must be bared to the cut of the elements. At about 8 o'clock, as the sun cross- ed the west, we had reached a line of high pressure ridges. Beyond the ice was cut into smaller floes and thrown together into ugly irregularities; an active pack and troubled seas could n .t he fur away, according to our sur- mises. The water sky widened but became less gharply defined. ‘Wé managed to plek a way among hummocky and pressure lihes which seemed impossible from a distanoce, and in a few hours we saw from an unusual uplift of ice blocks a broad, dark line ~-parating the packs—a tre- mendous cut several miles ‘which seemed at the time to bar further progress. We had a folding canvas boat on the sleds, but in a temperature of 48 defirees below zero no eraft could be lowered Into water “without fatal results. All of the ice about was firm- ly cemented togother and over it & way was forged to the shore of the graat lead. Camp Beside the' Lead, Camp was mfie on a securs old field and over its huge ice pliffy the rack seemed lfke a 1 river winding Ee(ween palisades of blue crystal. A thin sheet of yeHow ice had already spread over the mysterious deep anld a profusion of fantastic frost crystals were arranged in bunches ri blin > flowers. Through this young lce dark vapors rose like steqm through a creen of porous fabrics and fell in feathers of dust along thb.lparklln‘ shores. Etukhishook went egst and went west to examine the lesd for a safe ¢érossing. There were several narrow places, while here and there floes had been adrift in the lead and were now fixed by the -young ice. Ahwelah remained to make our snow house comfortable. In exploring the shore line a par- tially bridged plice was fiound, 2bout a mile from camp; but the young ice was (oo elastic for a safe track. The temperature, however, fell mapidly with the setting sun, and the wind was just strang ensugh to sweep off the heated vapors. A better atmospheric condl- tion could not be afforded to quickly thicken the young fce. The groaning ice and the eagerness to reach the opposite shores kent us awake for a long time. With the ear resting on the frozen sea the vibra- tions and nolses of the moving pack were not unlike those of an earth- quioke. 3 Breakfast was served early and soom after we were on the thin ice to test its strength. Though the lce was hardly, safe it did not seem wise to skies were W at might de. stroy the new fce &hd caompel a halt for a loug time.” ('TH¢ seventh installment of Dr, Cook's utnrf. will be Srmled in Thé Bulletin on Thursday, Sept. 30.) TEMPERANCE SOCIETIES. Lithuanians from Connectiout and Other States Convane in Waterbury. A convention of delegates from Lithuanian temperance societies of Connecticut. and several other states. opened Thursday mérning, says the Waterbury American, with o mass at 9.30 In St. Joseph's Lithuanian church in the Brooklyn district. The pur- pose of the gathering of delegates is to form a big Lithuanian temperance alliance. The convention proper began at tyo o'clock Thursday afternoon in the pa- rochial school ~connected with 8t Joseph's parish At the services, which will be conducted in the church tonight, the Rev. Father Miklukas of Philadelphia will preach a sermon on temperance. The temperance movement is rapidly gaining ground among the Lithuanians. A month ago St. Mary's Temperance society was organized by Waterbury Lithuanians, and there are now 125 members. SOCIALISTS ACTIVE. “Eugene V. Debs and Robert W. Hun ter to Speak in Bridgeport.
