yond which no Esquimaux are found, not
because of the cold, perhaps, but because
there is no food, nothing, indeed, but ice.
In 1875 the Alert and Discovery sailed
from Portsmouth, England, and on the
18th of May, 1876, the sledges of the Alert
reached latitude 50 degs. 20 min. 26 sec,
the most northern point then attained, and
far beyond the most northern range of the
Esquimaux. From the loftiest point at
tainable no signs of an open polar sea were
discovered, but all in sight suggested pre-
cipitous mountains of ice, rising higher
and higher toward the pole The vessels
wintered in latitude SO degs 81 min, where
the sun was out of sight 142 days, and no
Esquimaux were anywhere found north Of
81 degs. 50 sec. Yet the greatest cold reg
istered was but u degs. below zero, and Of
100 persons only four died-one by FROST
bite and three by scurvy.
The Scandinavians had meanwhile sailed
along the northern coast of Asia, and in
1879 Lieutenant De Long sailed in the
Jeanette. 1t was crushed by ice June 90,
1881, and three months later two of it's
boats reached the mouth of the Lena. The
third, De Long in command, was lost, and
in March, 1882, the corpses of him and his
companions were found in Siberian
forest. The last to attract general atten-
tion was the Greely expedition, and the
details, so far as known, bear an un-

Four Expeditions Now En- Route for the
North Pole and One for the South
Pole-Previous Attempts and Their Re-
suits.
1t is not easy to explain in popular
article why any one should be eager to
reach either pole of the earth except as
matter of mere curiosity, but navigators
have been trying it at frequent intervals
for nearly four centuries, and this summer
five expeditions will start-four for the
north pole and one for the south. 1t is
some slight satisfaction, however, to learn
that there has been steady gain, though
very slow one. and that in 1882 two men
reached point within less than 400 miles
from the north pole-to wit, latitude SO
degs. 24]5 min.
We may name Sebastian Cabot as the
pioneer, and his object and that of his
successors for over three centuries was
to find the northwest or northeast route
to Asia. Within the Sixteenth cent

OF this years expeditions the most in
teresting to Americans is that of the Kite,
a whaling vessel, which sailed from New
York recently, carrying Lieutenant Robert

of the Academy Of Natural Sciences in
Philadelphia, The former thieks he can
find smooth route through middle Green
land to it's northern coast, and thence lay
out route to the pole, and the latter is to
ascertain the physical facts about the re-
gion. They will go into winter quarters
early, and expect to do their principal work
next year Greenlands interior is huge
icecap, of which Fridtiof Nansen crossed
the southern part in 1888, and Lieutenant
Peary went some distance into the interior
in 1885. He designs to repeat that trip and
then go north along the center of the ice
cap
DR.. Nansen, the Norwegian scientist, de-
signs following the course of the Jeannette,
and thinks he can avoid the errors of her
managers. Another expedition is that Of
the Danish government, and is command
ed by Lieutenant Ryder, OF the Danish
navy. He purposes to explore the eastern
coast of Greenland. And lastly Baron
Nordenskjold, whose experience on the
north coast of Europe and Asia qualities
him for the task, purposes to explore the
mysteries of far southern ice, and get as
near the south pole as possible.

century, and then all interest centered in
Sir John Franklin.

called the Fellowship for the Discovery of

lastly to 100 degs. Captain Parry received
one of these rewards. Sir John Franklin
did discover northwest passage, such as
it was. for he sailed down Peel strait and
Victoria strait, since called Franklin strait.
He died, as was afterward discovered, on
the 18th of June. 1847, and much of the
work of several subsequent expeditions
