fund.
The Roosevelts commander did not express
amaZement when the news Of his good fortune.

broken TO him He seemed to think the story
Of the donation might be of the same class as the
one started several weeks ago. which had him
naming 100000 as the amount required before
he would start another dash for the pole. II
think the Philadelphia Geographical Society will
give something TO the fund, but you had better
consult its secretary to ascertain whether the
organization has decided to give $4,000"

made no mention in his lecture of the compile
ton of the fund. Regarding the proposed ex-
peditton of the Roosevelt, he simply said that
1t now seemed possible.
