Remarkable voyage.

The most remarkable ocean voyage
ever made, perhaps, has just come to .
close. Prof. Nordsnskjold, the voyagel
and discoverer, is again in European
waters after an absence Of eighteen
months. He sailed into the Artic Ocean
to the north Of Norway, passed along
the northern coasts Of Russia and
Siberia, passed through the Behring's
Strait, entered the Pacific Ocean sailed
along the Kastsrn and South thern coasts
OF Asia, entered the Red Sea and passed
through the Suez Canal into the Meai.
tetranean, and a few days ago reached
his starting point, having ciroum-
nsvigated the Eastern Hemisphere.
Much interest has been manifested In
scientific circles in this remarkable
voyage and the letters written BY him
from time to time throw much light on
life and trade on the high latitudes
through which he sailed.
