IEARY AND THE NORTH POLE.

I.

A few months ago I had the pleasure of spending an afternoon with Captain Robert A. Bartlett. master mariner, sealing captain, Arctic explorer, and nil all-round good fellow. “Bob," barn at Brigus, Newfoundland. is in thc prime of llfe—-a splendid specimen of vigor- ous manhood. Sixty. years of age, he does not look it. He was out at the Royal Ottawa. Golf Club with Major David McKcand, who for the inst four or five seasons has com- manded the Canadian government lmrty which annually visits the p0- lice posts in the Far North. Chatting with Bartlett over a "mug o‘ ice. as he called it (he is a strict tee- mtaller. never having tasted intox- icating liquor in his life.) l tried to draw him out about Peary and his lrip to the North Pole in 1909.

The expedition, Captain E. Peary commanding. had left Sydney. N. 8- 0h July 1'1, 1008, in the 5.8. Roose- velt, Captain Bartlett-being master and chief navigating officers. The entire ly numbered twenty- two. The funds for the trip wcrc secwed principally by ithe Peary Arctic Club, of which the late H. C. Bridgman. at that time chief editor of the Brooklyn Times-Union was secretary, The National 0e08- rsphlc Society also assisted. The Roosevelt had been built in i805, st s cost of $100,030, but before ates-ting upon the last and success- ful expedition an additional $75,000 WM required in provide new boilers 8nd make other clung ; for equip- ment" and for operating expenses. This amount was raised by public luliscription from all ptftl of tho Uhlted Hates, from Canada and wen from Newfoundland.

the twenty-two members of the or- iginal party there had been pick- ed up at Etah and other points in Green nd. forty-nine Eskimo and two h indrcd and forty-six dogs Several weeks were spent at Sheri- dan laying in fresh meat and_ pre- paring for the northern dash. Four supporting or relay parties were then drawn. Bartlett being in oom- mand of the pioneer detail. Then on February 15. 1909, the New- foundlandei- left the ship to com- mence breakingatraii and carrying supplies forward, He was quickly fol- ilowed by the three other sledge div- isions, commended respectively by George Borup. a Yale graduate; Donald B. MacMillan. of Worcester Academy, Mass" and Professor Ross G. Marvin, of Cornell, who unfort- unately lost his life on the lest southerly trip when he broke through treacherous young ice that -had but recently closed over a "lead," or stretch of open water. Peary daily kept up with the supporting par- ties, finding in all four commanders valuable assistants. On this north- erly trip Bartlett was always to the fore, and when Peary reached the advance post every evening he found an igloo built for him, and the camp laid.

late in March Peary. Bartlett and Henson crossed the eighty-seventh parallel of north latitude. And then, onApril first, Peary decided tomake his dash. taking with him Henson and four Eskimos. Herc it was that Bartlett badeareluctant goodbye to his commanding officer and started on the return trip to the ship. At 0'1 degrees 40' 49" he had attained. the “Farthest North." Bartlett alone, before starting south took a trip of five miles northward. to reach, if possible. the eighty- elghth degree parallel. but when he had worked out his observations on retiuning to camp they only gave

tered before the goal was achieved. Anyway, there reached Mrs. Peary, then in New York city, a WIPCIBSS message from her husband dated Indian Harbor. Canadian Labrador, September 5,1909, “Have made good at last. I have the Pole. Am well, Love." At the same time there came a message to Mr. Bridgman, "Pole reached; Roosevelt safe.” Both of these messages I had the pleasure of inspecting at Sydney a. few days later. _

Nearly a fortnight elapsed before the details of the discovery of the Pole became known, and it was with profound regret that thousands of people all over the world then learned that Peary, on his final dash, had taken with him not Bart- lett, but Matthew Henson, the only colored member of the expedition. Bartlett, commanding the fourth supooitlxig party, on April first, had attained 87 degree; 46' 4:" , the far- thest North" ever attained lly a white man up to that time. Here it was that Peary instructed him to "about fncc“ jilld return to the ship. The party was then 183 nautical inlies from the desired goal. (Note: A nautical mile is approximately 2,026 yards). Pearyfls action seemed incomprehensible.

Twenty-seven years have elapsed since the goal was achieved and Peary, full of honors, has gone to his long rest. 1 felt, however, when in Bartlett's company, that the time was opportune for me to endeavor to learn something of the captain's feelings on being denied the privil- ege of sharing in the great achieve- ment. But if I had expected Bart- lett to criticize the action of his commanding officers and to voice a p. , , I was to be disappointed. Inevcrmet sman morcloyaifc his former chief.

SPRINGS FIRIST CUCKOO IN MILADY‘S HAIR

Fashicin is going to women's heads.

The vogue for wearing flowers. ribbons and bandeaux on the hair in the evening is becoming more and more daring and varied in its effects.

Now there are prophecies of an imminent return to the Louis XVI period fashion for decking the hair with every imaginable kind of ornament.

Among hair ornaments this spring are bunches of artiflcal fruit. ears of com. miniature animals, birds and even metal beet- less, as well as flowers made of al-

most every medium from silk to wood. Some of these are attached to

bands, slides on pins which keep them in place oi. the head. Others, like many of the real flowers now being worn in the hair, actually have to be wired into the coiffure by an expert hair-dresser just be- fore the lovely lady goes out to the party.

He could handle dogs and sledges. l-ie was a part of the trav- elling machine. Had he (Peary), taken another member of the ex- pedition also he would have been s. |. . necessitating the car- rying of extra rations and other im- pedlmenta. It would have amount- ed to an additional load on the pledges, while the taking of Henson only was in the interest of economy of weight. ‘

“Red Acre Farm” At Cardigan

The Cardigan Head Dramatic Club, under the capable direction of Miss Bernadette Lewis, teacher, presented the three-act comedy, entitled above to a large and very

appreciative audience in the Cardigan hail on St. Patrick's night.

Throughout the progress of this excellent drama, the ownership of Red Acre Farm is seriously threatened by reason of a heavy mortage held against it by Squire Harcourt.

The efforts of Nellie Armstrong to live down a. false accusation of robbery and to become a great actress, the villsiny and subsequent repenlance of hcr selfish sister, Laura, the inflexible severity of their old fashioned father. and the soothing influence of a loving and tender-hearted wife and mother. form the chief dramatic episodes in this well-balanced drama-

The fracture of an intricate chain of puzzling crrcumsta surrounding the plot is cleverly aided and abetted by the village gossip, Mrs Btrutt. by the travelling saleman, Mr. Busby, and by Dick Randall, the ardent admirer o! Neilies charming tem- perament. Harry Harcourt, the Squire's ne'er-dowel]. progeny, does not assist materially, in bring- ing affairs to a successful issue.

The humorous courtship of the everlasting blunderlng farm hand with the adopted daughter of the ,. r s Colonel Strutt from Timbucktoo relieves the tense situations at various timely in- tervals during the drama.

Three scenes impressed them- selves deeply on the memory of the audience. One scene was that dramatic moment towards the end of the first act when Nellie, falsely accused, of stealing the precious heirloom is driven tern-fully from the home she helped to save so often, with her indignant father's curse upon her head. Another scene was that ludicrous occasion on. which the "stately" Colonel, tumbles more or less gracefully lu- to the well on the Red Acre Perm; an lnc1dent,by the wey which the "Alert" farmer
