ARCTIC EXPLORATION.
The Expedition That Will Start
Under DR.. Nansen.

1t will be remembered that DR.. NanSen,
the Norwegian explorer, was wholly sue
cessful in his enterprise of leading party
across Greenland two years ago. They
made the journey on skis, or Snow-runDerS,
from the east coast TO the Danish settle
ments ON Bafins Bay.
1t is now reported that the Norwegian
Natie nal Assembly has voted an appropria-
ton to fit cut another eXpeditien-thiS time
for the North Pole. A specially constructed
boat of 40 tons burden is to be built, and
manned by a crew of ten or twelve men
under the command of DR.. Nansen. Pro-
visions and fuel enough for five years will
be taken. although it is hoped that two
years will be all that is needed for making
the trip. 1t is proposed TO leave Norway in
February, 1892
The general plan of the expedition is to
find, at some point north of Europe or Asia,
a current that shall carry the vessel through
open water past the North Pole to the west
coast of Greenland. 1t is believed that the
currents and the open water will be found
along the proposed line. This belief is
founded chiefly upon recent observations.
In June, 1881, the Jeanette, under Cap
tain de Long, sank off the mouth of the Lena
River on the north shore of Siberia. In
June, 1884. three years afterward, there were
picked up near Julianshaab. in Greenland,
several articles which had belonged to the
JtannsILe, anu when Udu Oeen Drought
from the opposite side of the Polar Sea on a
Iiece of ice.
;. Ihe question was, By what route had
these articles Gomez They could reach that
point only by one Of two ways. Either they
must have come up Davis Strait from
around the south end Of Greenland, or they
must have drifted in from the Arctic Ocean.
To get to Cape Farewell frpm the mouth of
the Lena that cake of ice would have to
stem all the easterly currents which are
known to run between Spitzbergen and
Nova Zembla, which seems improbable.
The most plausible theory is that the
broken ice was driven off the coast of
Siberia far enough to be taken up by an
easterly current which carried it back past
Betting Straits, where the Jeanette en-
tered the Polar Sea, and past all the north
ern coast of this continent, until it reached
Greenland.
Should the expedition planned by DR..
Nansen lead TO any Of the anticipated re-
suits, then the cruise of the Jeanette will
not have been made wholly in vain. The
attempt to be made is a bold one in the face
of repeated defea;s.-Youth's Companion.

of Gettysburg.
During the National Encampment in Bos-
ton an old comrade with silyery hair was
led into the Cyclorama of Gettysburg by a
bright-faced little miss. The old man sat
down while the child described to him the
features of the picture. Occasionally he
asked her question and slowly shook his
head as if in doubt of the accuracy of her
account, She had described to him in her
own way the onrush of picket men and the
hand-tu- hand conflicts at the stone wall,
where the Maine veterans met the charge of
the Southerners. when he asked: but
where's the artillery, May?'
"Oh, you mean the big guns. They're
over there on the hill in row."
