where they killed the deer, we must
then add TO the date Of Or. Cooks let
ter of March 18th, at or near Cape
Thomas Hubbard, the subsequent four
or five sleeps at that point, and the
number of days required to march
from Cape Thomas Hubbard to Cape
Northwest Ia distance of some sixty
nautical miles,, which would advance
his date Of departure from the land
to at least the 25th of March, and be
prepared to accept the claim that Or.
Cook went from Cape Northwest
(sbcut latitude eighty and half de-
erees north to the pole, distance Of
five hundred and seventy geographical
miles, in twcnty-seven days.
After killing the deer they then trav-
eled south along the cas-, side of Ring
mes Land to the point indicated on the
chart, where they killed another deer
They then went east across the
south part of Crown Prince Gustav
sea to the south end of Heiberg Land
then down through Norwegian bay,
where they secured some bears, but
not until after they had killed some of
their dogs, to the east side of Ora
ham Island; then eastward to the lit
tie bay marked Eds Ford" on Syer
drup's chart; then southwest to Hells
Gate and Simmons peninsula.
Here for the first time during the
entire journey, except as already
noted of Cape Thomas H. Hubbard,
they encountered open water. On this
point the boys were clear, emphatic,
aud unshakable. They spent a good
deal of time in this region, and finally
abandoned their dogs and one sledge,
took to their boat, crossed Hell's Gate
TO North Kent. up into Norfolk Inlet
then back along the north coast Of
Colin Archer Peninsula to Cape Vera,
where they obtained fresh elder duck
eggs. Here they cut the remaining
sledge off, that is shortened it, as it
was awkward to transport with the
boat, and near here they killed wal
rus.
From Cape Vera they went on down
Sound, where they killed a seal;
thence east along the south coast Of
the sound, killing three bears at the
point noted on the map. to the PENN
sula known as Cape Sparbo on the
map, about midway on the south side
of Jones Sound. Here they killed
some musk-oxen and. continuing east.
killed four more at the place indi.
Gated on the chart, and were finally
stopped by the pack ice at the mouth
of Jones Sound From here they
turned back to Cape Sparbo, where
they wintered and killed many musk.
oxen.
After the sun returned In 1909 they
started. pushing their sledge, across
Jones Sound to Cape Tennyson; thence
along the coast to Clarence Head;
(passing inside Of two small islands
not shown on the chart, but drawn ON
1t By the boys), where they killed a
bear; thence across the broad blight
in the coast to Cadogan Fiord; thence
around Cape Isabella and up to Com
mander Peary's old house in Payer
Harbor near Cape Sabine. where they
found a seal cached for them by Pan
ikpah, I-took-a-shoo's father. From
here they crossed Smith Sound on the
ice, arriving at Anoratok.

Did they have any provisions left on

about all they could carry, SO they
were able to take but a few things
from the cache.
From here they went southwest
along the northwest coast Of Heibers
Land to a point indicated on the map
(Sverdrup's Cape Northwest).
From here they went west across
the ice, which was level and covered
with snow, offering good going, to a
low island which they had seen from
the shore of Heiberg Land at Cape
Northwest. On this island they
camped for one sleep.
The size and position of this island,
as drawn by the first boy, was criti,
eised by the second boy as being too
large and to- FER to the west, the sec
ond boy calling the attention of the
first to the fact that lie position of
the island was r'e~e nearly in line
with the point where they had left
Heiberg Land (cape Northwest) and
the channel between Amund Ringnes
Land and ElIef Ringnes Land.
This criticism and correction was
accepted by the first boy, who started
to change the position of the island,
but was stopped, as Commander Peary
had given instructions that no changes
or erasures were to be made in the
route as drawn by the Eskimos on the
chart.
From this island they could see two
lands beyond (sverdrup's Ellef Ring
mes and Amund Rhymes Lands). From
the island they journeyed toward the
Ieft.hand one Of these two lands
(Amund Hinges Land), passing a
small island which they did not visit.
Arriving at the shore Of Amund
Rhymes Land, the Eskimos killed a
deer as indicated on the chart.

FIRST KILLING FROST
Almost as Late This Year As 1t Has
Been Since 1886.

The record of the appearance of the
first killing frost for period OF twen-
ty.four years bears interesting inform
alton. In only two instances in that
time has the frost appeared later than
il came this year and then by only
three or four days. In 1892 the first
freeze came October IA, and in 1904 II
was only one day later, October Is.
The first frost generally comes on a
September date, the record OF the
twenty-four years giving only six DC.
tober occurrences while three-fourths
or seventy-five percent of the frosts
come in the proceeding month. The
earliest frost in the period considered
was September 10, 1894 while the
latest was October 10, 1904.
Almost every one was ready for the
frost this year and practically no DAM
age was done. The entire state was
ready for the freeze. The tomato

Finally, Panikpah. the father, was
again called in to verify details Of the
portions of the route with which he
was personally familiar.
During the taking of this testimony.
Il developed that Dr. Cook had told
these boys, as he told Mr.. Whitney
and Billy Pritchard, the cabin boy,
that they must not tell Commander
Peary or any of us anything about
their journey. and the boys stated DR..
Cook had threatened them if they
should tell anything.
The narrative of these Eskimos is
as follows:
They, with DR.. Cook. Francke and
nine other Eskimos, left Anoratok,
crossed Smiths Sound to Cape Sabine,
slept in Commander Peary's old house
in Payer Harbor, then went through
Rice strait to Buchanan bay. After
few marches Francke and three Eski-
mos returned to Anoratok
DR.. Cook, with the others, then pro-
ceeded up Flagler bay, branch of
Buchanan bay, and crossed Files
mere Land through the valley pass at
the head of Flagler bay, indicated by
Commander Peary in 1898, and utilized
by Sverdrup in 1899, to the head OF
Sverdrup's Bag Fiord" on the west
side of Ellesmere Land.
Their route then lay out through
this ford, thence north through Sver-
drup's "Heuerka Sound" and hansen
strait.
On their way they killed musk oxen
and bear, and made caches, arriving
eventually at point on the west side
of hansen strait (shore of Axel Hell
berg Land of Sverdrup), south of
Cape Thomas Hubbard.
A cache was formed here and the
four Eskimos did not go beyond this
point. Two others, Koolootingwah and
Inughito, went on one more march
with DR.. Cook and the two boys,
helped to build the snow igloo, then
returned without sleeping.
(These two Eskimos brought back
a letter from DR.. Cook to Francke,
dated the seventeenth OF March. The
two men rejoined the other four men
who had been left behind, and the six
returned to Anoratok, arriving May Z.
This information was obtained not
from the two Eskimo boys, but from
the six men who returned and from
Francke himself, and was known to
us in the summer of 1908, when the
Roosevelt first arrived at Etah. The
information is inserted here as supple
mentary to the narrative of the two
boys.)
After sleeping at the camp where
the last two Eskimos turned back, Or.
Cook and the two boys vent in a
northerIy or northwesterly direction
with two sledees and twenty.odd dogs,
one or more march, when they en-
countered rough ice and lead OF open
water. They did not enter this rough
ice, nor cross the lead, but turned
westward or southwestward a short
distance and returned to Heibera Land
at a point west Of where they had left
the cache and where the four men had
turned back.
After being Informed Of the boys
narrative thus far, Commander Pesry
suggested series Of questions to be
put to the boys In regard to this trip
from the land out and back to IL.
These questions and answers were
as follows:
Did they cross many open leads or
much open water during this time?
AIRS. None.

guage, was set for hearing for Thurs.
day, Oct. IA, in Justice Woodruff's
court The case has been continued
again, pending further investigation
OF the circumstances and conditions
surrounding the parties concerned in
the case. The claim is set forth to
the justice that Mrs. McDonough is
handling liquors, which she denies,
and brings countercharges of the same
sort against her neighbor. Mrs. Nc
Donough also charges that fruit has
been stolen from her cellar and that
her chickens have disappeared. There
fore she Is wroth and refuses to be
comforted. Pending the securing of
additional evidence in the case the
hearing has been continued to a fur
ther date.

cation, was fined $685. in Justices
court. The case of William Tarr for
using abusive language was contin-
