selfish motlves,-the one IN quest of riches, the
other in quest of prowess which to them is pas
time. Another class of explorers are the de-
voted enthusiasts who in the interest of science
willing to risk life, if need be, in adding to
knowledge of this or that region,-men who
volunteer their services to the organization
that will provide fund for exploration pur-
poses. Unfortunately, they have often failed,
partially if not entirely because the means con-
tributed have not been sufficient. and have
been obliged to turn back. sometimes on the
verge of success
But this Italian nobleman is in class bv
himself. Needless to say his lfework is one in
which he finds his greatest pleasure but he
does not penetrate the unknown wild for the
wealth it may contain. nor to display his skill
with weapons. His IS mercenary object,
and he is not obliged to depend on the patron
age of any society or individual for the means
to carry out his exploration; although few of
his close friends such Cagni. are allowed to
contribute small portion of the expense if
desired. merely to make them feel that they are
of more Importance in connection with the
project. If it IS necessary to spend hundred
thousand dollars to provide for an expedition.
the Duke does not hesitate to do SO if he con-
siders that science will be sufficiently benefited.
His Trip This Year
THE Himala vas have challenged him since he
first saw their snowy peaks, and it IS not
strange that he should have decided to attack
them again as he proposes to do this year.
But he will be satisfied only with an attempt on
Everest itself, which rises to height of nearly
six miles above the sea So high is the summit
of Everest that scientists have doubted if
human being could live to reach its top because
of the intense cold and rarefied air. The climb
also means the ascent of great glaciers and rock
slopes which will test the skill and nerve of the
veteran alpinist; for Everest is hard as well
as high mountain. But with Abruzzi will go
the faithful Petigax. Savoy, who has been with
him before in the HimalayaS and several of
the Princes friends. also skilled in mountain
eering. Everything in the way of equipment
that skill and experience suggest will be pro-
vided and. if he fails in his attempt it will not
be through lack of preparation. The expedition
will probably start for the mountain from
Nepal, India, so as to give the summer
months for its long journey into this unknown
world above the clouds

shapes this season are not hit or miss
