GOSSIPOF THE BOROUGH
Commander Peary's Lecture on HIS
Latest Arctic Trip.

OF the lectures on travel given under the
auspices of the Brooklyn Institute of Arts and
Sciences, few have been varied in the word
pictures presented TO the imagine tion that of
Commander Peary, delivered under the depart
rnent of geography the other evening. His sub
ject was his recent journey in search of the
North Pole After showing the route Of piled
up ice which obstructed his entire sledge jour
ney from the ship, which resting in winter
quarters at about the S1th degree to the pole
distractions that had to be away for mile
after mile-he suggested that neither skates
nor automobiles would be Of much avail in such
a region.
After travelling toward the pole until he and
his companions were almost broken down with
the hardships of the Journey his food almost
gone, many OF his dogs dead and the rest re-
duced 20 skeletons, he turned back toward the
ship. After many days following the first trail.
he reached a camp where he expected to find
reinforcements with additional supplies. The
supplies were not there. On his way he had
crossed q breach in the ice after waiting for the
open water 10 freeze over. A few days after he
had left the camp on his return, he reached the
breach again Now he failed to find a passage
back. He waited but the breach widened to
two miles and a half, and the water did not
freeze. Beyond the open water all he held
dear, and life itself On his side were starva-
ton and lingering death After several days
II was found that a thin crust had formed a
bridge across the water a few miles Off II
was the chance OF life. The party started out
on snowshoes, the members fifty feet apart so
that a break might not involve all in the catas-
trophe. AS they slid their feet along, the thin
ice undulated in all directions.
For the first time" said the explorer 'I had
doubts Of the outcome OF the expedition
knew that al any moment might come the end
of the Peary arctic expedition"
Five minutes after the further bank of ice
New-York tribune., 1907-01-13
was reached the frai bridge ruptured by q
channel Of black water, and went to pieces


Shortly after the party had reached land and
exchanged dog meat for fresh game they crossed
fresh trail. The marks in the snow told the
story. A sledge had passed. drawn by a few
dogs and followed by the uncertain steps Of ex-
hausted men. The next day Esqumaus We're
sent 70 follow the new trail and found the men
from Whom Peary had been separated on his
outward journey whom he had expected to re-
inforce him. Had the explorer not crossed their
TRAN their death would have come within
few hours They had made their last camp.
So he saved them instead of receiving aid at
their hands
The chief of the Esqumau settlement from
which Peary draws his recruits was he says
the finest specimen Of the race that he had
found standing feet II inches and weigh
ing $50 pounds. On mis- first trip the chief had
come to him and. relying on the reports of other
explorers, Peary thought It best to get into his
favor. Consequently, he gave the an old
dress coat and black straw sombrero AS the
weather was not in keeping with such raiment,
the chief packed up the gifts and took them
home. On his next voyage Peary upon
nearing land man approaching in boat AS
the appearance of the oarsman seemed queer
the commander took look at him through his
glass II was the chief wearing the black straw
sombrero and the dress coat. Last fall, when
Peary returned to the Esouimau settlement the
natives took him out behind the huts and point
ed TO the grave Of the chief covered by a huge
pile of stones. Nearby were his canoe and pad
die and his weapons. Nearer than anything else
indicating the regard ip which the dead
held them weighted down with stones to pre-
vent tine wind from carrying them away, were
the old dress coat and the black straw
brero
The mistake which the explorer said that ne
made and which he indicated that he would
not make again. he was led into through his
ignorance of the currents in the Arctic Ocean
He did not say when he would make another
trip 70 find the pole IL at all. but he did say
that his ship being repaired and that he had
determined TO devote his life to the work Of dis
