HOW BIG. is THE NORTH POLE?
The Coast and Geodetic Survey Says II
May Be Three Miles Broad.

What is the allowable area of the
North Pole?'
In other words, how much territory
or frozen sea surface has the United
States acquired by the discovery of the
pole by Cook or Peary, or by both OF
the explorers?
These queries were submitted to the
authorities of the U. S. Coast and Geo
detc Survey by representative of The
National Tribune 1t was desired ia
learn If the North Pole area is as large
as that of Rhode Island, with its 1850
square miles, or as great as the area OF
Connecticut, with its 5000 square miles
The question was also suggested: Is
the area of the North Pole only just as
large as the staff of Old Glory, which
was said to have been planted there by
both Cook and Peary?
The North Pole is merely an imag.
mary point-a- geographical position,
was the reply of the Assistant Chief OF
the Coast and Geodetic Survey. 'As
such it has no real area. There can be
no claim, even by right of discovery, to
an open sea area. However, that is a
question of international law. But nc
claim of a serious nature can be made
to any area there. The fact that the
sea about the pole is covered with wa
ter, even tho frozen perpetually, pre-
cludes such a claim.
QutStlOU was also dSheu. HOW
can person leaving the S0th degree OF
latitude know when he mas reached the
90th, or North Pole, where all degrees
of longitude meet?
The reply was that We know the ele
walton of the sun at any given time and
at any given latitude, by means of scien.
tific calculation So it was simply nee
essary to determine the elevation of the
sun at noon above the horizon at any
given date, apply certain corrections OF
a minor nature, ana the result added

The explorers to the pole may moi

termining the position of the North
Pole. They could, however, determine

THE SIXTH SENSE OF BLIND
 SENATOR GORE


 w. s. Church gives some interesting information about the picturesque figure of Senator Gore of Oklahoma in the October issue of the American Magazine. He says:
 Most interesting of all the states men watching the summer flights of the Wright brothers, near Washington, was blind Senator Gore of Oklahoma. Watching was the word he used. He complained. too, that the flights con flicted with the baseball games which he wanted to see
 This sort of thing is not affectation. It illustrates the extent to which this blind man has developed a sixth sense. A word in his ear enables him to re- construct the picture or scene before him as a scientist builds an extinct animal from fossil tooth. Mrs. Gore. the senator's devoted wife, is usually at his side to supply the word. Through her eyes he saw the aero plane. Through her eyes he reads the newspapers. law, literature and politi- cal economy
 But do not picture Senator Gore in any helpless, clingilg fashion. lie is the youngest member of the United states senate and one of it's prominent members and ablest debaters while still in his thirty ninth year He achieved this himself His affliction brings him some helpful consideration. some unusual attention, doubtless, but he neither needs nor asks for favors on account of it.
 Born in Mississippi, in family of moderate circumstances, Senator Gore lost his eyesight through a boyhood accident. As the light gradually faded he called up every bit of grit in his system to meet the appalling situation He did not let his affliction interrupt his school work for a day. In school his fellow students read the textbook pages to him once, and he listened to the lectures. OnL nearing was suffi- clent. At twenty-siX he was practic- ing law in Texas. He was able, at thirty. to marry Miss Nina Kay. a Texas girl. His experience had been that of the average young lawyer When, at thirty-one, he moved to Oklahoma, the young man found his element. The territory was in process Of becoming state and politics fairly hummed- One night William Jennings Bryan was late for a speech at Musko- gee and man named Gore was put up at o'clock to hold the crowd. At midnight Gore was still holding that crowd, which had all but forgotten . Bryan.
