 The next day was similar The wea- ther cleared little at dinner time and exposed to our view a mighty noun tain range to the east, and not far off-only for a moment-and then 1t disappeared in the dense snowdrift.
 On the 29th it calmed down and the sun shone, though it was not the only pleasant surprise he gave. In our course stretched a big glacier running toward the south. At it's eastern end was the mountain range going in southeasterly direction. Of the west ern part of it no view was to be had, it being hidden in the dense fog. At the foot of this glacier, the Devils Glacier" a depot for six days was es- tablished, at S6.21 degrees south lati- tude. The hypsometer indicated 5000 feet above sea level.
 A Fine Mountain View.
 On Nov 30 we began to climb the glacier The lower part of 1t was very much broken and dangerous. More over, the snow bridges very often burst From our camp that night we had a splendid view over the noun tain to the east There was ''IIelmer Hansen's Summit, the most remarka- ble of them all It was 12.000 feet high and covered with such broken glaciers that in all probability no foot L Ttrt ing's," "Sverre Hassels" and. "Olav Hjanland's" Mountains also lay here. beautifully illuminated in the rays of the bright sun.
 In the distance, and only occasion ally to be viewed in the fog, Mount Nielsen" with it's summits and peaks about 15,00O feet high. We only saw the nearest surroundings
 It took us three days to surmount the Devils Glacier. always in misty weather
 On the 1st of December we left this broken glacier with holes and crevices without number. with it's height of g. 100 feet. Before us. looking, in the mist and snowdrift, like frozen sea. appeared a light, sloping ice plateau filled with small hummocks.
 The walk over this frozen sea was not pleasant The ground under us was quite hollow and it sounded as though we were walking on the bot toms of empty barrels. As it was, man fell through, then couple of dogs. We could not use our skis on this policed ice. Sledges had the best of it.
 The place got the name the Devils Dancing Room This part of our march was the most unpleasant. On Dec. we got OUT greatest height, ac- cording to the hypsometer and ane- roid, 10,75o feet. at s7 degrees 40 min utes south.

A Difficult Climb.

The land under which we lay and which We now had to attack looked unite imposing. The nearest sum- mits along the Barrier had height from 2.00o to 10000 feet. but several others further south were 15,- GOO feet or more.
 The next day we began the climb. The first part of it was an easy task light slopes and well-fned mountain sides. It did not take a long time. for our willing dogs worked their way up. Further up. We met with some small but very steep glaciers Here we had to harness 20 dogs to each sledge and take the four sledges in two turns. In some places 1t was so steep that it was difficult enough to use our skis.
 Some big creyiees forced us from time to time to make detours. The first day we climbed 1000 feet. the next day mostly up some small glaci- eers, camping at height of 4500 feet. The third day we were obliged to go down on a mighty glacier. "Axel Hei- berg's Glacier" which divided the coast mountains and the mountains further south.
 The next day began the longest part of our climb Many detours had to be made in order to avoid broad cracks and open crevices. These were appar. ently mostly filled up. as the glaciers in all probability had long ago stopped moving. but we had to be very careful. never knowing for certain how thick was the layer that covered them.
 Our camp that night lay in very N turesaue surroundings at a height of 5000 feet. The glacier here was mar rowed in between the two 15,000 feet high mountains, the "Fridtjof Man. sen" and the Don Pedro Christopher sen" From the bottom of the glacier rose Mouont "Ole Englstad"-a big snow cone 13,500 feet high.
 Dogs Splendid Work.
 The glacier was very much broken in this comparatively narrow pass. The mighty crevices seemed to stop us from going further, but it was not so serious as it appeared. Our dogs, which up to this time had covered distance of about TOO kilometers, the last days very hard work. ran this day 35 kilometers. the ascent being $500 feet, an almost incredible record.
 It took us only four days from the Barrier to get up on the vast inland plateau.
 We camped that night at height of 10,600 feet. Here we had to kill thirty-four of our brave companions and keep eighteen-six for each of our three sledges.
 We stopped here four days on ac- count of bad weather Tired of this, we set out on the 25th of November. On the 26th, in furious blizzard and in a dense snow drift, absolutely noth- ing was to be seen, but we felt that, contrary to expectations, we were go- ing fast down hill. The hypsometer gave us that day descent of 500 feet.
 We continued our march the next day in a gale. and dense snowdrift got our faces badly frozen. We could see nothing. We reached that day S6

 Hobart, Tasmania, March s, 1L20 A. Mon the 10th of February, 1911, we commenced to work our way to- ward the south, from that day to the 11th of April establishing three de pots, which in all contained quan- tity of provisions of about 5000 kilos. One thousand six hundred kilos, in- eluding HOO kilos of seal meat, were cached in 80 degrees, 700 kilos in S1 degrees, and 800 kilos in S2 degrees South Latitude.
 As no landmarks were to be seen, these depots were marked with flags, seven kilometers on each side in the easterly and westerly directions.
 The ground and the state of the Barrier were of the best, and special ly we'll adapted to driving with dogs On Feb. 15, we had thus travelled about 100 kilometers. The weight of the sledges was 300 kilos, and the number of dogs was six for each sledge The surface of the Barrier was smooth and fine with no sastrugi (Snow furrows thrown up by the windL) The crevices were very local and were found dangerous in only two places. For the rest-long, smooth undulations.

 The weather was excellent-calm or light breeze The lowest tenn perature on these depot trips was min us 45 Celsius or centigrade. (49 de- grees below zero, Fahrenheit) On the 4th of March, on our return from the first trip beginning on the 18th of February, we found out that the Tram had already left us. With pride and delight we heard that her smart cap tain had succeeded in sailing her fur thest south and there hoisting the eolors of his eountry-a glorious mo- ment for him and his eemrades-the furthest north and the furthest south good old Tram! The highest south latitude attained was IS degrees fl minutes
 Winter on the Ice Barrier.
 Before the arrival of Winter We had 5000 kiles of seal meat in the de- pots, enough for ourselves and 110 dogs. Eight deg houses, a combina- tion of tents and snow huts, were built
 Having cared for the dogs, the turn
  came to use our solid little hut. It was almost entirely covered with snow by the middle of April. First we had to get light and air. The Lux lamp, which had power of 200 stand ard candles, gave us a brilliant light and kept the temperature up to 20 degrees Celsius {6S degrees Fahren- heit) throughout the Winter and our excellent ventilation system gave us all the air we wanted.
 In direct communication with the hut and dug-out on the Barrier were workshops, packing-rooms, cellars for provisions, coal, wood. and oil. a plain bath, steam bath, and observatories. Thus we had everything within doors If the weather should be too cold and stormy.

London, March 9.-Capt Amundsen wrote the long dispatch telling of his trip aboard the Tram and handed 1t in at Hobart, whence it was trans- mitted to Sydney by the Australian State Telegraph Department At Syd- ney it was put on the cable of the Pacific Cable Board for transmission over 4,000 miles of sea to Bamfieid.

 The trip from s2 degrees to S3 de- grees became a pleasure trip-excel- lent ground, fine sledging, and an even temperature. Everything went like dance.
 On the 9th we sighted South Vic toria Land and the continuation of the mountain range which Sir Ernest Shackleton mentioned in his chart as running toward the southeast from the Beardmore Glacier, and on the same day we reached 83 degrees and established here Depot No. 4. On the 11th we made the interesting discov- cry that the Ross Barrier terminated in blight toward the southeast at S6 degrees south latitude and 163 de- grees west longitude, formed be- tween the southeast mountain range running from South Victoria Land and a range on the opposite side running in a southwesterly direction-proba- ply a continuation of King Edward VII. Land.
 On the 18th we reached 84 degrees, where we established depot; on the 16th we were at 85 degrees, where, also, we made depot.
 From our Winter quarters, Tram heim," 78 degrees 3S minutes south latitude, we had been marching due south. On the 17th of November, at 85 degrees, We arrived at place where the land and barrier were con nected. This was done without any great difficulty. The barrier here rises in undulations to about 300 feet. Some few big crevices indicated the limited boundary.
 Here we made our head depot, talk ing provisions for sixty days on sledges, and leaving thirty days pro visions on the spot.
