had yet encountered, anl the next was
even worse. IN 1896 he returned to Eng
land, carrying with him many new
charts of the frozen regions visited and
much novel information, but without
having found the passage.
During Parry's absence on his third
voyage Captain laftervard Sir John
Franklin had made an overland journey
from the west to Point Turnagaln. and
Captain George T. Lyon, who had been
with Parry on his second voyage. was
sent with the Gripar to meet Franklin.
the route lying through Hudson bay.
This venture was a complete failure.
The passage was not found, and, worse
yet, little or no exploration was accom-
plishcd either. This was largely because
Lyons party got SO near the magnetic
pole that their co1npasses were rendered
useless. Beechey's voyage of three
years, begun in 1895, added little to the
knowledge already possessed of the Arc
tic. Ia fact, Beechey. who went north
via the Pacific, devoted far more time
to the islands of that vast ocean than to
northern exploration.
In 1927 Sir John Ross, who was
greatly interested in the inscrutable
problem, induced Mr.. Felix Booth, one
Of the sheriffs of London, to contribute
to the Quitting of an expedition which
should be sent north without govern
ment aid or supervision. This expedi-
ton sailed in steamer Of So tons, the
Victory, on May %, 1929, and its mem
bers did not return to England again
until 1858, having abandoned their
steamer in 1882 after suffering severe
hardships. They were picked up near
the western shore of BafIins bay by a
WhalesbiD. No urOCreSs SO far as TO the
discovery of the northwest passage was
made, but the true position of the mag
netic pole was found, and that was Of
great scientific Importance
In 1916 the Sir John Franklin ex-
petition. 1879 strong, and with two
ships, the Terror and the Erebus, was
sent north. Sir John was then in his
SEVENTEEN year, but he did not shrink in
the slightest from his mission. He had
two excellent officers under him. Com

the Elrebus, and Captain T. Il. NJ.
Crozier, in charge of the Terror, while

Of any. previous northern party. Not
withstauding all this, no member of Sir
John Franklin's party was ever seen
alive after their departure. In 1917 the
anxiety felt by the entire civilized
world for their safety became so great
that it was decided to send relief expe-
ditions after them, and in 1913 three
such search parties started out. Sir
James Clarke Ross had charge of one Of
these, Sir John Richardson of another

LEGATION, but there is no great CONNER
cial motive at all, whereas the early
voyagers within the northern circle of
frost all went seeking for that elusive
northwest water passage across North
America, through which ships, once it
were discovered, would be able, it was
thought, to sail from European to Asiat-
ic coasts. to tho great saving of time and
money
Luke Fox and Thomas James were
among the first searchers for the pas
sage. They accomplished nothing, Of
course. and little was done for nearly or
quite 200 years after their failure. In
1746 there were feeble efforts at explora-
ton of the territory adjacent to Hud-
son bay, and in 1853 a schooner Of
about go tons was fitted out in Philadel-
phia, principally through the efforts Of
Benjamin Franklin, for the purpose of
finding what others had failed to locate.
The expedition accomplished nothing.
Twenty five years later, in 1875,
James Cook, the famous Captain Cook,
made a northern venture, his ships be-
ing the Resolution and the Discovery.
The latter vessel was commanded by
Captain Charles Clarke They approach
ed the arctic problem via Bering
strait, but as they entered the polar sea
late in the season soon retraced their
course for fear of being frozen in. Tt
was but few months later that Cook
was murdered at the Sandwich Islands.
For about 40 years after Cooks attempt
little or nothing more was done in the
way of northern exploration. Then, in
1918, the secretary of the British adj
miralty, Mr.. (afterward SIR John Bar
row, succeeded III persuading the British
government to fit out an expedition Of
two ships. They were the Isabella, COM
manded by Captain John Ross. and the
Alexander. commanded by Lieutenant
w. E. Parry. The party numbered "a
men all told, and high hopes were en-
tertaiEcd for its success. After an alb
sence Of but seven months the two ships
returned, having accomplished rather
less than nothing in the way of explora-
ton, though Captain Ross had been dill
gent and faithful in the taking of as
Economical and other observations.
The next year Lieutenant Parry went
north with two ships, the Hecla and the
Griper, and exactly the same number Of
men that had been in the Ross party.
They were away * years and got to
Melville island. the farthest western
point that had been reached This en-
titled the officers and crew to prize
money amounting to about IS, 600. The
winter passed in the ice by Parry's par
ty was long and tedious, but was neatly
relieved by the ingenuity Of the officers,
who got up a weekly manuscript peKl-

Some Of these expeditions found traces
of Franklin, and several of them male
important additions to the maps of the
arctic regions, but it was not till 1859
that tho fate Of the brave old English
man and his men was fully determined.
The expedition that succeeded in per
forming this service was headed by Cap
tain F. L. McClintoch, who sailed ON
the steam yacht Fox. The expense Of
this expedition was borne partly by the
British government and partly by Lady
Franklin Several boats and the skele-
tons Of a plumber of the men were dis
covered, aud Eskimos who saw them
when alive were talked with. Accord
ing to the testimony Of the latter, the
poor fellows fell III their tracks as they
wsre walking over the snow and ice and

their adventures aud hardships to April

that his party had been always the per
