PROFESSOR MACMILLAN.

Professor Macmillan was born al Prov
incetown, Mass, about thirty-seven years
ago. His father and grandfather were
old Scotch sailing masters, and from
them he inherited his love of adventure
His father was lost at sea more thsh
twenty-five years ago, nothing having
ever been heard from his vessel or crew
Ever since he was old enough TO read
and understand books on polar explora'
ton DR.. MacMillan's dreams have oeen
of Joining an expedition to the North
Pole. Sixteen years after Commander
Peary was graduated from Bowioin COL
lege DR.. Macmillan entered the same IN
stitution, there to become member OF
the football and track teams. md later a
teacher of athletics.
After his graduation from Bowdoin'
in 1898, Mr.. Macmillan taught as primer
pal in the high school at Gorham ne
then in the preparatory school at swarm
more, Penn. and after that, until JOHNS

SELECTING EsQuIMAU DOGS.

At Smith Sound about one hundred Of
the strongest Esquimau dogs will be
picked to draw the sledges. Eight dogs
are usually allowed for each team. eight
being equal to one horse In power. The
ship will then cross Smith Sound to
Flag!er Bay. $50 miles from the pole DAT
itude 1910, north. passing Cape Sabine,
at the southern headland Of Flagler Bay
Across the bay from this point they will
establish winter quarters In sight OF

the Greeley expedition persisted in the
winter Of 1883.
When winter quarters have been estab-
lished the ship will return home, and by
the middle of September the party Will
begin sIedging supplies to Cape Thomas
Hubbard. This work will take all winter
during the moonlight periods.

DRIFT OF THE JEANNETTE.

The drift of the Jeanette from point
north of Siberia to another near Bennett
Island. between September 8, 1879, and
June u, 1884, and the nearly three-year
drift of hansen, in the Fran, from
point few hundred miles west of the
! point where the Jeanette was lost to
another north of Spitzbergen, also are
cited.
Tradition among the Esqumaus also
bears out the deduction. DR.. Simpson,
surgeon of the Plover. which went to the
Arctic in 1892, reported that the Esqui-
maus of Point Barrow believed that some
of their tribe had been carried to the
north on the ice broken up in southerly
| gale, arriving, after many nights, at a
hilly country inhabited by people like
themselves, speaking the Esquimau Ian
guage, ard by whom they were well re-
ceived.
After a long stay. one spring, in which
the ice remained without movement, they
returned without mishap to their own
country and reported their adventures.
Other Esqumaus have since then been
carried away on the ice, and are supposed
TO have reached the northern land, from
whence they have not yet returned. The
Smith Sound Esquimaus also point in the
direction of Croker Land and say some
of their tribe have disappeared in that
direction.
So 1t is seen that the proposed expedi-
ton is not founded on a dream. 1t was

under the co-leadership OF Donald b.
Macmillan and George Bcrup, also of the
Peary party, but Borup's untimely death,
by accidental drowning near Crescent
Beach. Conn.,. on the afternoon OF April
Is, 1912. put an end to 1t at that time.
After the iatter's death it was decided to
continue the work this year as fitting
memorial TO the young explorer.

IN TOUCH WITH EXPLORERS.

But 1t is not only that the wireless will
be useful in receiving news from civiliza-
ton; It will enable the explorers TO tell
Of their accomplishments practically from
day to day. Even when the party Is
away 1t will keep In touch with winter
headquarters by couriers. and the wire
less operator will fash the news to the
ether. whence II will be picked up and re-
layed to New York. so that the whole
world may know within few hours OF
what has been done and Of the daily lives
Of the modern Norsemen. Even the dis
covery of Croker Land. though 1t means
sledging trip OF about three hundred
miles back TO winter quarters. will be
known within a few days.
The expedition will leave New York on
July 3. stopping at Boston for 1900
pounds Of pemmican and at Sydney to

AGAIN, DR.. COOK.

This discovery was made from the top
of a great cliff. two thousand feet high.
1t was at this point that DIR. Frederick A.
Cook spent his celebrated Arctic winter
and from which he said he started on his
record breaking" trip to the North Pole.
But Cook did not climb the cliff. or. at
least, he never mentioned having done so.
whether Cook really did discover the
pole will be, incidentally. one of the great
points to be settled by this expedition
Cooks records which he left at Cape
Thomas Hubbard will be brought back.
as will Admiral Peary's. Cook said that
on his way north he passed land to the
west, In about $40 north latitude. He
named his land Bradley Land. as a
tribute to his benefactor Cooks dis

men will fear to 60 forth to face UNI
known perils to snatch the laurel Of
fame?
The answer of the centuries has been
"No," In spite of the toll of life ana
limb, men have gone forth into the un-
known places, willing to risk all. that the
world may be better because they lived
and died.
And as the ages have answered mo.
so is the present answering. Brave men
still live. Fame calls not in vain. Just
as the Norsemen of old. just as Column
bus, Vespucci, the Cabots. father and son;
Balboa, Magellan, Hudson and scores of
others turned their vessels prows in tow
ard the unknown. just so will little
band OF hardy Americans leave this city
soon to find-a new continent.
Take down your atlas OF your globe and
you will see north of Alaska and Siberia
a vast territory which is mapped as the
Arctic Ocean. Lying between the merid-
ians of los west and $50 east, there is a
rough triangular shaped section which
is the sole remaining spot on the earth S
surface which has remained unexplored,
which the foot Of white man has never
trod. half million of square miles,
more or less, II represents the sole riddle
of the earth which is still unanswered.

I is invariably good-a fact attested By
their symmetrical bodies and perfect
health. Admiral Peary tells Of having
seen only one EsquImau idiot in all his
years OF association with Them
Smith Sound was recently swept by an
epidemic Of typhoid, and most Of the in
habitants-about 10 men and % women
were made i'll. IL is believed TO have
been brought to Smith Sound by one Of
the missionaries from South Greenland
Taking this as a warning, the entire ex-
petition will be vaccinated against v-
phoid before leaving New York, and the
doctor will vaccinste all the Esqumaus
upon reaching Smith Sound.

THE UNDISCOVERED COUNTRY.

Here In these icepound Businesses, 1t is
believed, lies the undiscovered land, the
Atlantis of the twentieth century. Guard
ed by the eternal cold. It has resisted the
efforts of men OF might. but hope Is
bright that in Professor Donald B. Mac
MILAN, leader OF the expedition, and the
members OF his party Nature will meet
her match. Those who are pinning their
faith to Professor Macmillan believe that
when he returns to civilization II will be
with the story OF a new world, world
of ice maybe. but still new world. To
bring back that story every member OF
the party is prepared TO face death-to
die In the effort, II need be.
The reader may be inclined to ask how
ii is known that such a continent exists
il no one has ever been there. The an
swer to this question is one of the most
interesting aspects Of the whole subject.
First, it Is known that there is some
land there. because 1t has been seen.
Second in Importance. though chrome
logically first, it has been demonstrated.
theoretically. by one of Uncle Sans
greatest scientists that there must be
land there.
Third. there are Esquimau legends.
The known continent was sighted by
Admiral 0hen Commander) Robert L.
Peary, discoverer of the North Pole. The
time was June 80. 1906. The place was
Cape Thomas Hubbard. the northern ex-
tremity of Axel Heiberg Land. west of
Grant Land Writing of his discovery,
Admiral Peary said:
The clear day greatly favored my
work in making a round Of angles. and
with the glasses l could make out, APP
parently little more distinctly. the snow
