CHAu7AUQUA ASSEMBLY
To Be Held August Is y, at
Chautauqua Park.

That DR.. Frederick A. Cook
will prove an attractive and
drawing number on the Aller-
ton Chautauqua program there
can be no question:.
Perhaps we could give this
great northern explorer no bet
ter write up than a few QUOTA
lions from his own pen. He
says: II have been called the
greatest liar in the world, the
most monumental imposter in
history. My claim to the dis
covery Of the North Pole has
been adjudged a willful, pre-
meditated and brazen fraud,
and I, a cheat, who hoaxed an
entire world for gain," but, he
continues, "No one should dis
credit me until he knows what
l endured during the two and
a half years Of Arctic exper-
ience-until he hungers with
me-freezes with me-shud-
ders with me in the specter rid
den Arctic night, and grows
mad with me in the glazing,
burning, long and Grazing Arc
tic day."
"Unconsciously [ may have
made statements which I my
self now question. That is in
excusable. But most emphat-
icallyand positively I am not a
thief; most certainly there was
no plan to hoax the world to
my own financial profit.
Later on in regard to the dis
covery Of the North Pole he
says:
eve made a little circle for
our feet in the snow, one of the
EsklmOS stood in the foot cir
Gle. At midnight a line was
cut in the snow to the end Of
the mans shadow and then a
deep hole was struck with the
ice ak and every hour a similar
line was drawn out from the
foot. lat the end of twenty-fou
hours a circle was drawn along
the points, which marked the
end Of the shadow for each
hour. The shadow of midnight
and those Of midday were the
same. The sun made a circle
about the heavens in which the
eye detected no difference in
it's height above the ice either
night or day. Throughout the
twenty-four hours there was
no perceptible rise or set in the
suns seeming movement
around the heavens. Now at
noon the shadow represented
in it's length the altitude Of the
sun, about twelve degrees, at
six o'clock it was the same, at
midnight it was the same, at
six o'clock in the morning it
was the same. - * "Be
wildered, [ realized all that I !
had suffered, all the pain Of
fasting, all the anguish Of long
WEAKNESS, and | felt that this
Was my reward, l had scaled
the world and I stood at the
Pole.''
This observation, DR.. Cook
felt, was an important one and
that lit placed him with fair ac-
curacy at the Pole, still some
people refuse to be convinced
by so simple an observation.
But, right or wrong, DR.. Cook
went high up in the Attic re-
gion and came down again
right or wrong, DR.. Cook went
high up to the zenith of worldly
honor and praise and came
down again.
The man, his character and
experience are unique and it
will be a great treat to hear his
own story at the Allerton Chau-
tauqua August II, 19l1.-Al-
