NANSEN, The ARCTIC EXPLORER.

The world loves to applaud courage
and perseverance, combined with pru-
dence and trained intelligence, espe-
cially when the fortunate possessor of
such gifts is also fortunate enough to
attract attention by some unusual or
brilliant exploit. Hence it was that
FridGof Nansen, who personifies all
these qualities, found himself world
renowned at the early age of 35.
Born near Christiana, Norway, Oc-
tober 10th, 1861, Nansen, studied in
its university, paying especial attention
to zoology.
In 1882 he started in sealing ship
for the coasts of Greenland to collect
geological specimens, and on his return
was appointed Curator of Natural His
tory at Bergen. At 81 the numerous
scientific papers from his pen won for
him the Ph.D. and he became Curator
of Comparative Anatomy in the Uni
versity of Christiana on his return from
Greenland, which he was the first to
cross. His experiences on the trip he
embodied in two volumes and wrote
another treating of the Eskimos. All
this was excellent training for bis last
and greatest achievement, which had
been formulated in his mind nine years

BISMARCK THIRTY YEARS AGO.

His Goodness When In the Street In Berlin
His Defence Of the Royal Family.
From the New York Tribune.
Rudolph Lindau, in the Duetsche
Revue, tells some stories about Prince
Bismarck that have not been told in
detail before. In May, 1856, Bismarck,
then only Count Bismarck, was passing
through Unter den Linden, when he
heard behind him the report of a re.
volver. He turned quickly around
and saw a young man-Ferdinand
Blind it was-aiming at him with the
still smoking pistol. Bismarck ran to-
ward the man and seized the hand in
which he held the revolver, and with
his other hand grasped the assassin's
throat. The latter, however, had time
to slip his pistol into the other hand,
and shot three times in quick success
sion. Bismarck felt himself wounded
in the shoulder, and injured in one of
his ribs, but he held his assailant fast
until several soldiers ran up and Sc
cured him. Then Bismarck walked
quickly to his house, which he reached
before any report of the affair got
there.
The countess, it appeared, had sew
eral callers when her husband came
| in. He greeted them all pleasantly,
and asked to be excused for few
minutes, on account of pressing en-
gagement. Thereupon he retired to
the next room and rapidly wrote out
an account of the attempt on his life,
which he sent to the king. Then,
returning to the drawing room, he
ioked in his usual way about his un-
punctuality at luncheon, and ate with
a good appetite. When the meal was
finished he went to the countess, kiss
ed, wished her "mahizeit" in the old
German way, and added: "You see
that am quite we'll, don't you?"
She stared at him, whereupon he
added:
ayes, you mustn't be anxious, my
child. Somebody has shot at me but
| it is nothing, as you see."
In the year 1851, when political
discussion was exceeding acrimonious,
Bismarck one day entered restau-
rant in Berlin for a glass of beer. A
man who sat near him, surrounded by
several friends, began to abuse mem
ber of the royal family. Bismarck
looked at him and said quietly:
"If you don't leave this room before
I have drunk this glass of beer will
break the glass over your head"
Then he quietly finished his beer,
and as the man had not needed his
warning he carried out his threat.
He went up to the fellow and struck
him on the head with the beer glass
till he fell bowling on the floor.
"What does the glass cost?" he
asked the waiter; and, having paid
for it, be walked calmly out, no one
daring to make the least resistance.

Mr.. Barnes was troubled, for he re-.

he had been in Worcester, hiding from
the authorities. He examined the ticket
closely and noted that it was rough on
one edge, as though portion had been
torn off. He handed it to the superin.

"Can you tell me where this ticket
was bought? I see that one or more
coupons have been torn off. Therefore
the passenger must have started from
some point the other side Of Worcester. :"

before its actual accomplishment.

before its actual accomplishment.
From his youth Nansen had been
champion athlete, and as boy, learn
ed to use the ski or Norwegian snow
skate, which proved of such service to
him later. In Greenland he learned
to manage dog teams and the kyak or
native canoe of the Eskimos. There,
too, he learned their language, and,
perhaps most important of all, he
learned to eat and live as they did.
To these accomplishments must be
added perfect craftsmanship gained in
many a seal and bear hunt. The char
acter of Nansen inspired so much con-
idence that finally the Norwegian
Storthing appropriated about 100000
for an expedition to the North Pole,
and Nansen started on June "a, 1898,
on the "Fram," vessel especially de-
signed by himself so as not to be
crushed when caught in the ice. The
"Fram" carried IL men with provisions
for five years. Nansen expected to
drift with the ice over the unknown
polar region, and the fact that he has
done it is the best comment on his ex-
cellent judgment and originality.
Before all, Nansen is a man of
science, and he has brought back many
important facts, some of which totally
upset some theories that were previ-
ously accepted. For instance, he has
proved that the vast continent that
was supposed to exist around the pole
is myth, and that the ice that covers
these regions is in continual drift un-
der the influence of prevailing winds.
Instead of a shallow polar sea, the
water grows deeper and deeper until
two miles of line will hardly reach
bottom. This deep sea with its bottom
current of warm water modiies for
mer theories of biological distribution.
Nansen also located one of the poles
of extreme cold on the inland of Green
land, and proved that the tempera-
ture north of that grows warmer.
The lowest temperature marked on
board the "Fram" was Gil degrees be.
low zero, while at the mouth of the
Lena river 81 degrees below zero have
been registered.
DR.. Nansen saw no land in all his
long journey, except few small is-
lands near the Asiatic coast, and so our
maps will have to be corrected. We
are proud to claim kinship, however
distant, with the Morse Vikings, and
we do not grudge our admiration for
their linesl defendant who surpasses
those heroes in knowledge and fully
EQUALS them in hardihood and COURAGE.

CHAPTER XIV.
WHEN DETECTIVES QUARREL?

WHEN DETECTIVES QUARREL?
When Burrows saw Mr.. Barnes in
the doorway, for moment he was con-
fused, but almost Immediately he con-
cluded that it was too late for the older
detective to take any of the glory away
from him. Summoning up his courage,
he said:
"Good morning, Mr.. Barnes. You
are just in time to hear the news I
have discovered the real murderer"
Mr.. Barnes looked at him keenly as
he asked:
"Who is it?''
1.-THE man whom suspected from
the start-Walter Marvel" replied Bur-
rows, with tinge Of exultation in his
voice.
"And pray how do you prove this9"
asked Mr.. Barnes quietly. Burrows was
nettled at the tone of his superior and
answered with considerable asperity:
"Oh, there is proof enough. I am
sure of what I say, or I should not
make the assertion"
~ hope you are not making any blum
der, Burrows. Remember, it is seri-
ous thing for detective to make a
charge of murder against any one un-
less he can assure a conviction at the
trial"
II know that; but tell you there is
no mistake here. have tracked my
man to and from the scene of the crime
and can give you incontestable proof Of
what say"
"Go on; I am listening" Mr.. Barnes
eat Gown on chair hear him. Burrows
forthwith entered into a minute and de-
tailed account of the facts from which
ne had reached the conclusion which he
had just so positively asserted. During
the narration Mr.. Barnes made abso-
lutely no comment, and when Burrows
reached the end of his story he was i'm
patient to know what would be said.
He already saw that he would not re-
ceiye the praise which he considered
was due to his efforts. Mr.. Barnes pom
dered over the situation for few mo-
nents and then said:
"Do you realize what you have done,
Mr.. Burrows?" Burrows did not like to
have Mr.. Barnes call him "Mr." Bur
rows, for he knew at once now that Mr..
Barnes was angry. and, determined as
he had been to pursue this examination
alone, he had by no means counted on
quarrel. Therefore in troubled tone
he answered.:
"Do l realize what I have done? No
harm, hope?"
"You have been the means Of fixing
terrible imputation Oh the character
of girl who is the pride Of this coun-
ty."
"How so?'

In order that new readers OF THE EN-
oUIRER may begin with the following m
stallment of this story, and understand u
lust the same as though they had read 1t
ali from the beginning, we here give q
synopsis of that portion of it which has
already been published:
CHAPTER I.-Fifteen years before the
opening of the story John Lewis went to
live in a place called Lee, in New Hamp-
shire, with little girl years old, Vir-
ginia. the daughter Of his deceased sister.
He had q son who had been left at school,
but ran away and shipped for China.
Five years after Lewis went to Lee
family named Marvel also settled there
Young Walter Marvel met and loyed Nir-
ginia Lewis. Alice Marvel, Walters Sis
ter, and Harry Lucas also met ana were
reported to be in love with each otner'
At the opening of the story person pur-
porting to be the missing son OF John
Lewis arrives at Lee. Walter Marvel
proposes for Virginia's hand to her uncle,
who refuses, telling him that his uncle,
whose name he bears, was villain and
convict. Young Marvel draws pistol
and shoots at Lewis, but his aim is divert
ed by Virginia. Soon after Lewis is
found dead in his room with two bullet
holes III MS DOQy. his uedlu OCCuIS Sili-
ultaneously with the arrival of the man
who claims to be his son. 1I.-Mr.
Barnes, the celebrated detective, and Tom
Burrows, another detective, take up the
case, strongly suspecting Virginia as the
criminal. fII.-They examine the
grounds about the house where the muir
der is committed and find footprints of
man and woman, the woman's foot
prints strengthening their suspicious OF
Virginia. They also find two pistols, one
marked "Virginia Lewis" the other
marked "Alice Marvel" Virginia writes
a letter and goes away with it. Barnes,
disguised, follows her. IV.-Virginia
gives her letter to one Will Everl y, who
posts it. Barnes keeps his eye on it, gets
possession of it and thus learns the where
abouts of Walter Marvel. V.-Virginia
visits Alice Marvel, who betrays knowl-
edge of the murderer. VI.-John Lewis,
the supposed son Of the murdered man,
produces envelopes addressed to him to
prove his identity. He excites suspicion
by leaving his room at midnight. VII
An autopsy is made of the dead man, and
Barnes arrives at Lee with young Marvel,
and an inquest is held, at which Alice
Marvel testities that she fired one OF the
shots that killed Lewis, and Virginia con-
fesses that she murdered her uncle, pre-
sumably to shield the real murderer.
