The Monkey Versus the Rose.

Alfred Frampton, f. r. l. b. A., q
we'll known Londoner, has written an
open letter, in which he says:
"The time has arrived when the
royal botanic gardens and geological
gardens should be amalgamated.
"The geological gardens should be
Increased in area to receive the botan-
ic gardens. 1t would be great public
benefit to have the gardens of the
fora and fauna side by side.
"a monkey is much greater attrac-
ton than any rose ever will be. The
geological gardens are much more pat
ronized by the million than are the
botanic gardens, and consequently the
financial results follow suit"

seas. The ice hardened as he got tc
within fifty miles of the pole. The all
prevailing silence and sameness were
telling heavily on the tempers of the
men. The Eskimos quarreled and
threatened to knife one another. The
pail of the hidden pole. jealous of the
discovery of its long retreat, was work
ing on the brains of its pursuers.
At this time but two Eskimos accom-
panied him.
On April 81 observations showed DR..
Cook that he was within a few hun
dred feet of the pole. A few seconds
more and he stood upon it, the goal of
scores of the worlds bravest men,
and planting the American flag, he
claimed for the United States over
10000 square miles Of territory-a
10000 mile section of natures scrap
heap.
News Came From Copenhagen.
The first news of DR.. Cooks discov-
cry to reach America came from the
colonial office at Copenhagen, stating
that with few Eskimos, a siedging
party, DR.. Cook reached the pole on
April 81. 1908.
The Copenhagen authorities had OBJ
tanned their information in a dispatch
from Lerwick. Scotland. which also re-
lated that Dr. Cook was returning from
the polar seas on the steamship Hans
Egede. bound for Denmark.
DIR. Cook, who was surgeon of the
first Peary arctic expedition and who
is q mountain climber of wide eXpe-
rience, disembarked from the auxil-
larry schooner yacht John r. Bradley
on Aug. 81 with his supplies at Etah,
on Smiths sound, latitude 10 degrees
north and about $50 miles from the
pole. Smiths sound is at the north
ern extremity of Baffin bay. His idea
was to winter somewhere in this gen.
eral section and early in the spring
cross Ellesmere Land and push onward
and northward to the pole across the
desolate polar sea, whence few men
ever returned to tell the tale.
Provisions. clothing and ammunition
sufficient for two years were taken
ashore from the Bradley. The adven-
turer's party consisted of one other
white man and about dozen Eski-
mos. Mrs. Cook, the explorers wife,
accompanied him as far as Etah.
A Secret Expedition.
The Cook expedition was largely
secret one. Mr.. Bradley, having a
burning desire to have DIR. Cook out
strip Peary to the pole, insisted that
no chance should be taken of letting
Peary get wind of the venture In
his opinion. Peary, who was already
within STRIKING distance Of Etah,
would hasten his own operations IL he
heard of Cooks plans and probably
secure all the available dogs at Etab,
so that Cook would be unable to start
over the fee on his sledges. For
those reasons" says Mr.. Bradley, I'VE

blighted hopes that the story of the
search for the pole has BEEN written.
And it remained for DR. Cook in
the year 1908 to achieve what had
become to be considered the impossi-
BILE, to accomplish what SO many
dauntless men had attempted. to win
immortal famei by actually penetrat-
ing to the north pole.
And also he played a sensational
part in battle of giants in as pretty
story of intense rivalry between
strong men as has ever been imagined
by the most romantic fictionists. In
short, DR.. Cook fulfilled the dearest
wish of his financial hacker. John II.
Bradley, wealthy New Yorker, who
had registered a grim determination
that Commander Robert e. Peary
should not be the first man to reach
the pole. Bradley, millionaire who
has hunted and climbed mountain
peaks with DR.. Cook. was confident
that Peary could be beaten to the pole.
Who was the man to do it? That was
the question. Cook? The very man,
thought Bradley-the very man to back
with a million dollars in cash for such
q venture.
And Cook made good

prepared our expedition very quietly
and got in on the ground floor"
On his return to North Sydney from
Etah on his yacht Mr.. Bradley stated
the situation, the chances and the
plans Of Cook as follows:
From the polar sea there will be
only two sturdy Eskimos and their
dogs to go with Cook. From Files
mere Land three families Of huskies
will go with the party, establishing
three stations along the route. The
Idea of taking more on the jaunt
across the Ice fields does not meet
with our approval for various reasons,
1.-The party will leave 70 north lati-
tude in Smiths sound and from there
will cross Ellesmere Land and try to
reach the pole by the polar sea. This
means journey of over 600 miles,
but for various reasons, which l do
not care to speak about at present, I
feel convinced DR.. Cook will land the
pole successfully.
unlike the Peary expedition, DR..
Cook has taken only two sieds, each
built with roofs, enabling the party
to sleep in them while pushing for
ward. The sleds are equipped with
lamp stoves and other contrivances.
Two canvas boats also form q part of
the outfit. These will be used in cross
ing leads, thereby saving valuable
time and cutting short the journey.
DR.. Cook once accompanied Peary on a
pole hunting trip. He has spent con-
siderable time in making preparations
for the present expedition and goes
with every known element of help"
The last word received from DR..
Cook after the yacht Bradley's de-
parture was dated "Polar sea, March
IT," and reached Annootok by special
Eskimo messenger The message sent
to Rudolph Francke, one of the original
party, who had returned to Annootok
for supplies, was as follows:
"I'll Make Desperate Attempt"
To the present we have seen nothing of
Croker Land, and 1 am taking a straight
course for the pole. The boys are doing
well, and 1 have plenty of dogs. l hope
to succeed. At any rate, l will make a
desperate attempt
While 1 expect to get back to you by
the end of May, still 1 wish you to be
ready to go to Acponie, the island off
North STAR where the whalers' steamers
come, by the 9Th of June, and If am not
back go home with the whalers.
Gather all the blue fox skins you can.
These must be our money on the return
trip. If you can get a few bearskins,
take them; also narwhal and walrus
tusks, but do not give too much for them.
