DR.. Cooks message Of March II to
Francke showed. however, that his

Francke experienced much diff1culty

Wife Of Famous Explorer Who Discov.
cred the North Pole.
The wife Of DR.. Frederick A. Cook,
the discoverer Of the north pole, has
contributed her share to the success Of
her husbands great achievement. Dr.
Cook showed sublime courage and de-
termination in going over those dreary
arctic wastes with only two Eskimo
companions, but the wife and mother,
who remained here uncomplainingly
ana suffered the keenest anxiety for
months. also showed heroic courage.
Since the explorer went north Mrs.
Cook has had other troubles aside
from not knowing whether her hus-
band was living, dead or dying. In
the panic Of 1907 she lost much mon
ey. She sold her home and on top of
that had sickness to contend with.
But her courage never deserted her,
The Pioche record. [volume] (Pioche, Nev.) 1908-1925, 1909-09-25

and never for moment did she lose
faith In her conviction that DR.. Cook
would reach the pole. She encouraged
the doctor in his most cherished hopes
to make the discovery which has made
him world famous.
When friends Responded of ever
hearing from her husband Mrs. Cook
replied. Il know that Fred lives and
feel confident that we will hear from
him before long" She endeavored to
raise funds for q relief ship to 60 to
his aid, but was unsuccessful.
The wife OF the explorer was born
in Camden, N. J. From 1896 to 1900
Mrs. Cook, who was Miss Marie Fidell,
was employed as a stenographer in
Philadelphia. She married in 1900 DR..
Willis 81. Hunt Of the Quaker City.
After the death Of her husband Mrs.
Hunt removed to Brooklyn. Her mar
rage to DIR. Cook savors somewhat of
q romance. AZ about a year after set
thing In Brooklyn DR.. Cook was called
In one night to attend her daughter
for some slight illness. He fell In love
with Mrs. Hunt and married her in
1902.
DR.. Cook first presented his wife to
his associates Of the Arctic club ct 1
dinner at the MARLBOROUGH club. New
York. Every arctic explorer or arctic
exploding theorist was charmed by the
tan, regal brunette Of imperial bearing
and gracious manners.

ShC 'hOA IA POIC COutIOtcISy,
Wv two facts stand out clearly
the north pole has been dis
covered, and by All American, both
Cook and Peary having been born
III this country. Peary's success in
reaching the long coveted goal came
after twenty three years OF voyaging,
and his is story Of intense interest.
1t was in 1886. when thirty years old,
that he made his first trip north and
caught the arctic fever as no man ever
bad 1t before. The twenty-three years
since then have been a continuous
period Of planning and effort to reach
the north pole. His initial trip north
was for the purpose Of making rec
onnoissance Of the Greenland inland
ice cap.
On his return Peary devoted all of
his spare time preparing for another
expedition north. This started in June.
1891. 1t was financed by the Academy
Of Natural Sciences, Philadelphia. This
trip added Immensely to the knowl-
edge Of geographers. 1t determined
the fact that the great inland ice cap
terminates south Of latitude SO and
that Greenland is an island Lying
beyond Greenland he discovered and
named Melville Land and Heilprin
Land. On this expedition he made a
notable journey of 1900 miles over
the inland ice at an altitude of from
5000 to 5000 feet.
In 1893 Peary went on his third triI
north, the voyage lasting until 1896

ming his trust was then. as thereafter

tives at the celebration and will be a
leading figure in the affair.
Admiral Won Rooster was born In
1914 at Mecklenburg and received his
education In Berlin. In 1870 he be-
came cadet on the Niobe and saw
service in Asiatic waters. He was
raised to a captaincy in 1881. received
the rank Of admiral in 1897 and four
years ago was made grand admiral Of
the German navy.
Among other large countries sending
representatives to the celebration are
Great Britain, France, Italy, Spain and
Japan, prince Of the royal blood COM
ing as a representative frzai the latter
country. OF course those from the
Netherlands will take leading part
In the parade. some of whom will man

very useful to him. His wife was with
him. In winter camp on this trip, in
the midst Of long wastes, only IS de-
grees from the pole. bis daughter Marie
was born.
This trip was prolific with interest
ing scientific results. He made thor
ough study of the tribe Of highlanders
who live In some parts Of the arctic
regions. He also discovered the IA
NOUS Iron mountain, which was first
heard Of by Ross In 1878.
Peary's examination Of this noun
tain Of iron disclosed the fact that II
was composed Of three meteorites
One Of these weighed ninety tons. the
largest known to exist Peary met
with only one failure on this trip, and
that was to reach the most northern
end Of Greenland.
