SOUTH POLE ON
HIGH PLATEAU
LIEUT.. SHACKLETON'S NIMROD
EXPLORERS TELL FURTHER
EXPERIENCE IN ANTARCTIC.

Christ Church, New Zealand. Mar.
27.-Lieutenant Shackleton's ship
Nimrod has returned here with the
exploring party aboard, all of whom
are we'll. The members of the ex-
petition give some details in addi-
ton to those already published.
Professor Davis and his compan-
ions recount that when they started
on the journey to the pole the wea-
Their was so hot that they had to pull
their two sledges in single file. There
was half ton of provisions on each
sledge.
After a comparatively easy $50
mile journey along the sea ice they
had a hard and almost hopeless
climb to the island plateau. They
carried their lives in their hands,
fighting their way inch by inch. They
suffered great privatiOns on the re-
turn journey. When they reached
the Nimrod they were a party OF
gaunt skeletons; the Nimrod had al
most given them up for lost.
The members of the party say that
when they were compelled to turn
back their bodily strength was dim
inishing so rapidly that their tenn
perature went down far below nor
NAL, in some cases reaching SO de-
grees and in others considerably
lower.
They nearly died of starvation be-
fore finding one of the depOts, and
were always on very short ratiOns.
Had his party been two days later
in reaching the Nimrod she would
have been frozen in for another sea-
son.
They declare that any future ex-
plorer attempting to reach the south
pole must be provided with much
larger supplies of food, because there
is no doubt that the south pole is
situated on a high plateau and that
the coolest and stormiest weather in
the world prevails there, there being
! 20 degrees of frost under the very
mildest conditions.

A NOVEL WITH
LOCAL SCENERY
THE "CHRYSALIS" DEALS WITH
CONDITIONS IN WASHINGTON
STRONG STORY.

Several towns in the Inland En-
pire furnish the leading characters
and the locale for the principal
scenes of "The Chrysalis," new
novel by Harold Kramer, editor of
the Times at Frankfort, Indiana,
who passed several years as a news
paper writer in eastern Washington
in the early COS The author deals
with situations of the strongest emo
lions and passions that humanity
can know in a convincing way, hold
ing the interest to the last word of
the 400 odd pages. This is the first
RECOGNITION of the Spokane country in
literature, and it is predicted by the
publishers, Lothrop, Lee & Shepherd
company, Boston, that the story will
be dramatized for the stage, to be
presented early in the season of 1909
10.
Mr.. Kramer deals with the Inland
Empire in a friendly way. These are
the words in which he gives his in
itial sketch of Spokane:
Lying at the northern edge of the
"Palouse country as every son OF
Washington styles it, ana close to
where the Occur d'Alene lift them
selves in rugged grandeur, Spokane
draws tribute from hundreds of sur
rounding miles of that inland en-
pire. The marvel of the great north
west that Marcus Whitman saved for
the United States of America by a
ride of 1000 miles to Washington
Spokane boasts of most of the won
ders and delights of the commercial
centers of the east, with few of thei1
grimy sorrows, and NO city of this
continent is more picturesquely
framed by nature.
"Thirty-five miles away, Lake

Spokane river, and through all OF
these miles, between rocky walls, the
river ruSneS on WIFI ever lHciedoihs

filings itself in marvellous cataracts

heart of the city, and the voice'of the

whose power is excelled in America

they sped, and slower and slower the
car was driven, but even the last few
blocks were reeled off at a speed
that caused policemen to shout and
others to pause and stare at the reck-
less flight. With a sweep the car
drew up in front of the Falls City
bank, and Nelson, pallid of face,
stepped to the curb.
What time is it, Joe?' he asked.
Five minutes after nine, and
Take Frances home and then

Nelson turned and walked toward
the door, but his steps were unsteady.
Bronson drew out his handkerchief

that was standing out on his brow.
He took the drivers seat, but in do
ing so found that his legs were
strangely weak and his hands un-
steady. Frances had collapsed and
was huddled down in the seat, pale
and battling with nervous sobs. Joe
tried to speak to her, but his throat
had gone suddenly dry and his words
were broken gulps. Then he faced to
the front and drove slowly down Riv-
erside avenue"

his face as gray as his mustache, but
his Jaws were hard set, and the car
was sent jingling along the uneven
road, up hills and down into the val
| legs, with all the reckless speed its
engines could develop. In the seat
| behind Nelson were Joe Bronson
and Frances, for the girl bad read
the alarm in her fathers face and
had insisted on returning to the
city with him.
with siren believing it's warning,
the car had swept across the Pine
Creek bridge, turned into the main
street of Whitman with a speed that
sent the car skidding in a terrifying
way, and then, having chung to the
road in some marvellous manner, it
flashed through the village with the
speed of an express train, narrowly
escaping collisions with vehicles, and
while those of the town were still
shouting in alarm the flying automo-
bile was still climbing the hill to the
north of the town; the sunlight CLINT
ed it an instant, and then it sped
down into the little valley and went
springing and lurching and whirring
on its way.
''The man who crouched over the
steering gear seemed not of blood
and flesh; he might have been carved
of marble or fashioned of steel. He
spoke no word; he gave no sign;
for no instant did his eyes falter from
the roadway that lay ahead one
breath and shot beneath the car the
next. The hand of the gauge told
off the miles with rapid sweep, and
at last the outer limits of Spokane
were sighted.
THE time, Bronson?' Nelson shout
ed, his gaze still on the road.
Joe took out his watch and, lean
ing forward held the dial before the
banker. A nod was the reply, and
Bronson replaced the watch. Scarce
ly had he done so than there was a
report like the sound of a rife shot,
and one of the rear wheels began
pounding and grating over the hard
road.
GA punctured tire yelled Joe,
but Nelson gave no heed
Scattered houses appeared here
and there, and the road became
long, irregular street, but with
hoarse bellowings the car tore on
ward, the crippled wheel Earring in
an ominous way at every uneven spot.
Quickly the panorama whirling by
them brought closer and larger clus-
tiers of dwellings, and then one hand
shifted from the steering gear to the
| throttle, the car being now so far in
to the city that more moderate
speed was necessity, but still they
dashed on at a pace that carried a
constant threat of tragedy.
Deeper and deeper into the city

through the mists of Puget Sound
and ships follow the seas highways
from remote corners of the globe to
their docks; and, too, close beside
this sunset sea Olympia proclaims to
the world that it is the capital, that
here statesmen assemble to enact
the laws and appropriate from the
states treasury.
But, Notwithstanding the truth
fulness of all this, it is in Spokane
that the politicians foregather to
smile and smile-and grip the Threats
of their antagonists. 1t is in Spokane,
with the breath of the power-splashed
Palouse valley sweeping across her
troubled breast and with the eye of
natures god looking down upon her
from the Occur i'Alene's grim watch
towers, that destinies are made and
unmade and revealed later in Olym-
pia on the sound
The story opens with Harvard
Yale football game and moves quick
ly to Spokane, the action taking
place five years afterward in the Pa
louise and Big Bend districts. 1t is
present day romance of the north
west, a drama Of lives and hearts of
people in whose veins red blood flows.
1t tells of Sch Layton, young law
yer in Spokane, whose life has been
embittered by events which occurred
several years prior to the opening of
the story, and how he was brought
from his get-what-you-want-
price life to better things by the
strength of character of Tess Barr,
who came from nowhere. Tess gives
the keynote to the story when she
says to Layton:
"a chrysalis is an ugly thing, but
/ it contains possibilities that are beau
tiful. Maybe your heart has been a
chrysalis."
Gradually the change is brought
about, until Layton, turning his back
/ on the years of longing for revenge
on Warren Nelson, a banker and =
nancier in Spokane, who caused the
elder Layton to commit suicide,
harken to the voice of his conscience
and saves the bank from ruin. The
run on the financial institution,
called the Falls City bank, was
| brought about by a sudden panic in
money centers, still remembered by
many in the northwest. Nelson re-
ceives word of the threatened run
while he is in the Palouse country,
and the novelist brings him to Spo-
kane. thus:
ct was early in the day-a day
that American bankers will not soon

touring car left Judge Vests home

cier the night before.
