AN ARGTIG EXPLORATION, The North Pole Reached bya Norwegian Explorer. He Tells a Marvellous Story of His Experiences—How Aurora Borealis is Produced—Life in the Neigh.» hood of the Pole. Tue following remarkable story —- the narrator of which is probably an imitator of Jules Verne, whose marvellous fictions are familiar to our readers—is taken from the boston Globe, snd given for what it is worth: One of the strangest stories that ever fell from mortal lips is that of a piti- able, yet envisble, specimen of humanity who was seen in Hokes Point a few days sgo—pitiable, because physical + ffl ction bas made life for him 8s mere existence; enviable, because he has passed through experiences so wonderfu', sv exceptional, and so frui‘less of discovery, that they seem more like the wild imsginiag of a rom ncer than the actual events in the career of an ordinary human being. The central per- sonage of this narrative says he has been to the north pels. He also asserts (hat he has discovered the secret of the northern lights. A Norwagian sailor, yet a possessor f a fortune; a braveadventurer, yet a man of rank; a forsaker of the comforts «f civil- zation for the rigors «f aretic explor tion; 4n enthusiast in science and a mar yr to the restless spirit of diecevery—such is Olaf Prai!. His hands and feet had been fr zen until they are useless. His ears are shriv- elled shreds of flesh. His nose but a relic. He speaks with difficulty. Even his mind is not clear at all times. Olaf Prail’s statement was delivered through the mo- dium of an interpreter. It was made solely in the interest cf public information, the narrator believing it to be his duty TO LET THE WORLD KNOW of the remark»ble things, ‘‘sll of which he saw aud part of which he was.” In eariy life Jike many boys he became filled with a desire to go to sea. He had all the com- forts and many of the luxuciesof a homa, but the desire for the sea was more than a mere fancy with Olaf; it was a passion, ardent and uncontrollable. Not, however, until he reached legal manhood was he able to gratify it. On coming into his for- tune, he announced his determination to organize an expedition to go in search of the north pole. The entreaties of his family aud friends were without effect, and at the age of 24 he had organizel a sma!!l band of companion spirits, consisting mostly of hardy sailors, and had procured the build- ing of a stauuch ship, not of large size, but cons‘ructed with special reference to strength, endurance and storage room. ‘The details of the sea passage,” said Olaf Prail, ‘‘are not of spacial interest. To tell of the storms. the 1otense cold, the fields and mountains of ice, the parrow escapes from benz crushed by the bergs, the desola ion and the straggles tor life, would be but to reps. t+femiliar tale that h+s brea told by former explorers of the Arctic eziensa It was about six months after leaving Norway that we found ourselves at a point which I think was CONSIDERABLY FURTHER than had teen reached by any preceding expedition. I did not recognize the locali y from any book of travel that I had read, and to this day 1 am unable to give it a geographical designation. The weather became severe abd tempestuous, and we decided that it would be best to suspend the journey fur afew weeks Accordingly we landed and put up a small portable house, which hid been bu.lt in sectivos and paced on board theship. It was here that I put into execution a plan which was certainly bli, and whch some of my com anions did not hestitate te pronounce recki ss. I had purchased a large baloon before leaving hume, together with the materi#ls requisite fer manufacturing hydroges gas. The basket, or car, was equippet with heating apparatus and with provisions stflisient to list several days, One mrtg I ealled my compinions tog: ther and laid before them the plan that I hud sec:@t!y cherished, I[t was, iu brief, to inflate the baloon, wait fur a strong northerly wind, and sail by sir to the north pole. Passmyg by the warnings, the entreaties nd even the thrests of my comrades, 1 will only say that I was master and thst nothing could change my plans. The b Joon was filled with gas and I step ped iate he basket and the word to cut loose was given. Suddenly the earth and sea seemed to drep far below me. In less time than ii takes to tell it 1 was NORTH A THOUSAND FEET IN THE ATR. I lecked beck ‘the ehip leoked hke a tey, the encxmpment was @ mere spot in the vast pinorama, and all were soon lost, sight and hearing. Nothing but a vast expanse «f blue and white greeted the vision. There was not a sign of any thing that looked like a human habitation. I was comfortable, for the heating eppar- atus fulfilled ail promises. I wiil here say that it included an arrangement for regulating the temperature of the gas, so that it would not contract and lose its buoyavey. Directly ahead were immense mountains of ice and snow, and I ap- proached them with satisfactory speed. I calculated that it would be three or four days, at least, before my destination was reached. It was, in fact,a week. On the fifth day I began to be depressed by the loneliness of wy situation. Un the sixth day the:o ituie became aliavs' unbearable. Every arrangement for bodily comfort worked admirably, but the utter silence and the absence of human companionship drove me inte such a state of mind that | was more than once tempted to cast myseli from the baloon into the field of snow or on the ice crags beneath. The one relief to the terrible motonony was the display of srilliant than anything that had ever been pictured in my imagination. On _ this spectacle I frequently gazed with profound admiration. Oa the seventh day A LOFTY MOUNTAIN OF ICE loomed up before me. To avoid being dashed against it I threw out 20 pounds of ballast. Up shot the baloon, and as soon as it ascended above the mountain top a wonderful scene burst into view. An expanse of blus water stretched into the distance, Not an_ iceberg marred the fairness of its surface. Was it the open polar sea? A thrill shook my whole being as [ asked myself this question. I was no longer lonely or des- pondent, but was filled with a strange ex- hiliration. My attention was next attract- ed Ly another strange sight. Far to the north an enormous pillar of fire arose from the horizon to the heavens. It illuminated the sky and shot tongues of flame into space. Here, no doubt, was the source of the aurora borealis. Such was my first thought. After the baloon passed over the summit of the ice mountain the air grew perceptibly warmer. Proceeding further northward, the temperature ascended above the freezing point. After several miles were traversed the air was balmy and agreeable. I threw aside my fur wrap- pings and soon entered a region of p sitive warmth. The breeze still carried me along at a fair rate of speed, and it was not long before I discerned a line of coast ia the distance. Columbus was not filled with more intense ecstasy than | was at that moment. The coast gradusl'y grew mure distinct. Mountaias, forests and plains glided into view. Settlements, villages and cities appeared in the panorama. The pillar of tire stood in the background, and it was A CONSPICUOUS AND IMPOSING FEATURE of the scene. It seemed to have its source at some point on or under the surface of the earth. Jt puzzled me greatly at the time. My baloon was soon directly over the land, and 1 resolved to descend. I pulled open the valve and the air-ship ap- proached the ground rapidly. A fertile tield lay beneath me, and a throng of men, women and children were rushing towards the spot and shouting in great excitement. In five minutes mora I stood on solid ground and my balvon was secured toa tree by a stout rope. The people had fair complexions and intelligent faces. They talked rapidly and eagerly in a language which I did not understand. I was soon conducted toa residence of some distinc. tion. Beyond remarking that I was treated hospitably, I must pass rapidly over this portion of my narrative. The country which I discovered was called Shunfik by its inhabitants. It was in a high state of civilivation. Its population was about four millions. It had numerous flourishing cities and towns. The people were intelli- gent and highly cultured, and wonderfully skilled in various mechanical arts. They knew nothing whatever of the great world outside of their icebound polar dwelling p'ace- One of their best scholars was ap- pointed to teach me the Shunfik language, and in three months I was able to teil him so much about Eurepe, Asia, Africa and America that he made a fortune by SPREADING THIS INFORMATION among the people by means of lectures and contributions to the newspapers of his country. Meanwhile I became a celebrity, and every facility for studying the institu- tions of Shunfik was extended to me. A volume might be written of the things which | saw, but I must pass at ones to the subjects that enlisted my most earnest attention. Here was the situation. A small continent and a warm climate at the north pole; the land surrounded by a sea of temperature that mide it comfortable for bathing; the sea practically surrounded by an icebound region of intense cold. What caused the warmth within a circla of 200 miles in diameter, tha centre of which was the polar point? This question was easily answered. The heat proceeded from the cclumn of fire I have already mentioned. This tremendous pillar of flame shot pro- bably a thousand feet into space. It durn- ed with intense fury and shone with dazzling brilliancy, At its topmost point the flames swayed in varigus directions, making a fantastic pyroxenic display. This was the source of heat and this also furnished the true explanation of the northern lights. When we in America or Europe see the aureal streamers projecting themselves into the heavens, waving, flishing, darting hither and thither, grow- ing faint and light by turns, now arising, now sinking, and enchanting us by ther capricious movements, we may koow that they proceed from THIS PRODIGIOUS TONGUE OF FIRE which is discharged from tiie bowels of the northern apex of the globe on which we live. That the aurora borealis is visible some nights and not others is due to different conditions of the atmosphere, and to another cause, which I will explain presently. Bat the column of flame—you wish also to know the origin and nature of that wonderful phen- omenon. The explanation is simplicity itself. The tongue of fire is nothing more or less than burning natural gas, Vo not look incredulous, 1 knew whereof | speak. At the point where the northern end of the axis of the earth is supposed to exist, is an enormous hole, at least 300 feet in diameter. From this hole a stream of natural gas pours forth. The supply is inexhaustib e, and the time when ic was not flowing and burnivg is unknown, The people of Shurfik have an extensive literature, and their recorded history goes back thousands of years, but history,tr «dition and legen’ treat the co'umn of fire as a fact older than humanity ivseli. Aa enormous quantity of heat is radiated, as you may well imagine, but it is under control. The aperture through which the gas spurts is in a solid rock, the top of which is as smooth as if it were made of polished steel. There is alsv a slab of stone at least 400 feet equare and 50 feet thick, which is eo fixed that it can be SLID OVER THE HOLE, either partially or entirely. Theslab mov- ed baca and forth by means of engines of pro- digious power, Thus the gas can be shut off northern lights, more wonderful and Oe tee or turned on, and the heat and light regulated at pleasure. The apparatus is an ancient in- ention, and is constantly improved by the agenvity of the Shuntiks. Of course the flow f gas is never entirely shut off, but its volume is so diminished at times that the heat and ight yielded are comparitively insignificant. Chis is one of the causes of the intermittent character of the northern lights as they appear o us. The inhabitants procure changes in he seasons by this purely artificial means, and heir successions of cold and warm weather are based on the scientific kuowledge of the requirements of the human health and vege- tabie vigor, I will not speak in detail of my many experiences in Shunfik. You natura!ly desire to know how I cyme to return from that strange land, and what made ms the physieal wreck I am. I betame acquainted with « beautiful maiden of high rank, and fell in Jove with her. She returned my presion. Her friends were indignant, and resolved to get rid of me. This was easily sccomplished. 1 was seized one night, plisced in my baloon, and sent adrift on another aerial journey, Every thing wa: done gently, but relentleesly. The equipments of the baloon, including AN ABUNDANT SUPPLY OF GAs, were putin perfect orler. A night was chosen when a lof-y current of air, as indicated by the highest point of ta2 tower cf flames, blew tothe southward. Resistence was useless, and I was soon in the solitary heights of the Arctic sky. My flight was away from the pole. For two weeks | managed to exist with physical comfort, but with a mind torn by agony. Then portions of the appsatus with which the car of the baloon was fitted got out of order, and my safferings began. I will not horrify you by relating them in detail, but will ouly state that at the end of four weeks | descended more dead than alive. The natives cared for me and helped me along my journey to the best of their ability. Finally, after three months of slow progress and incredible hardships, | obtained passage in a fishing ves- sel bound for a poiat in Melville bay. Then I succeeded in reaching Cape Chadleigh, from there 1 managed to get to Newfoundland, and efter that there was no difficulty in finding a ship bound for the United States. I shall sail for my home in Norway in a few days, and from there despatch aa expedition in search of my forsaken companions, unless they have in the meantime turned = Olaf Prail’s inter- preter is an intelligent Norwegian named Loof Lipra, whom he first met ia Newfoundland on his return journey. 20+ —— -—__——_ “Tt Has Been Worth Hundreds of Dollars te Me!” 18 Years of Agony from Neuralgia.
