MIRACLE SAVES
MANSON SL|FE
ON POLAR TRIP
Alone, Food Exhausted, Blinded
by Fierce Storm, He Stun
bIes Upon a Cache.
AUSTRALASIA,

ADELAIDE, AUSTRALASIA.
March 14.-After enduring extreme
privatons after escaping starvation
almost miraculously," as he says,
DR. Douglas Mawson has returned on
the Aurora from the Antarctic. He
says his expedition, which left Ho-
bart Tasmania, December 2, 1911, was
eminently successful.
DR.. Mawson wildly describes the
disastrous sledge journey on which
Lieutenant b T.. S. MINIS, of the
Royal Fusiliers, and DR.. Xavier Mertz
persisted. After the loss of his COM
panions he was alone for thirty days.
His food was exhausted he was
stumbling alone in a snowstorm when
he happened to see black spot and
discovered it was a cache.
Driven Back to Shelter.
After mastering his strength suf-
ficiently as he thought to reach his
base, twenty-one miles away, he
left the remainder of the contents of
the cache for the search party which
he thought would be sent out. But so
furious grew the storm that Mawson
could make his way no more than two
miles. So he dragged himself back
to the cache, where the searching par
ty found him.
He has been in poor health ever
since this trying experience in Feb
ruary last year, so little sledging
was undertaken afterward. The health
of the rest of the party was eXcep-
tionally good.
Met Terrific Winds.
Terrific winds were experienced al
the expeditions base in Adelieland.
During one whole month the wind
speed averaged siXty-three miles an
hour. For one hour it blew 1l6 miles
and gusts were frequently gauged
at over 200 miles an hour. These
winds delayed the party, but they
took advantage of the delay to make
a magnificent collection of eggs, some
extremely rare.
Dr. Mawson emphasized the value
of wireless telegraphy to him and IN
sisted that no similar expedition
: should be undertaken without wire
less apparatus.
Finds Huge Coal Deposits.
Occasional exposed rocks indicated
the existence of vast coal bed; be-
sides many signs of copper and otheI
minerals were found
The dredging, which yielded the
finest collection of biological speci-
mems ever found in the Antarctic
was carried out partly on the home
ward voyage Westward of their base
some, extraordinary fish and sea ami
mails were obtained from a depth OF
two miles.
The scientific results will be given
to the Geographical Association OF
Australia.
The Aurora on her way back to
Adelaide experienced two severe hur-
ricanes She had lost her motor
launch in the ice, and the ship her
self was badly nipped on one occa-
sion, when it took clever seamanship
