pedition aroused my interest in voy­
ages in the North Pole regions.
" I followed De Long's expedition
with keen Interest, and 1 realized that
he was undertaking a voyage almost
certain to lead to destruction. But
his experience pointed out a route
leading into the northland, and other
explorers have doubtless profited by
his example.
When Doctor Nansen
proposed a trip to the Arctic he plan­
ned his voyage along the lines of Doc­
tor Long’s trip to the polar seas.
"Diatoms found on the east coast of
Greenland are similar to those brought
back by that great explorer Norden-
skjold from regions to the westv/ard,
and comparison showed that these
specimens were o f the same type as
the diatoms brought from Cape Wan-
darum, in Asia.
"T h e finding of these diatoms proved
that a passage existed from the Pacific
to the Atlantic, but did not Indicate
the time it took to pane through from
sea to sea. Later an American har­
poon was found by an English whaler
in the Atlantic Arctic sea, which
proved also that there was a passage
by which a whale could go through.
"Then later on wreckage of the
Jeannette and some part of the cloth­
ing of two members of the Jeannette's
crew came ashore on the west coast of
Greenland at Julianehaab. This proved
to me that if the Jeannette had not
been lost she would have drifted into
the Atlantic ocean in about four years
and a half. It also proved that there
is a passage from ocean to ocean.

Belcher's squadron. These relics of
Arctic disaster were discovered on
the north end of Bylott's island, iu the
Arctic sea.
Captain Bernier believes that these
relics were part of the Pioneer or the
Intrepid of Sir Edward Belcher's
squadron. Three vessels in the Belch­
er squadron were not accounted for,
the Pioneer, the Intrepid and the As­
sistant. The Pioneer was abandoned
in the Arctic and all on board were
lost.
Another relic of the Arctic found by
Captain Bernier’s crew is a spear from
Sir John Franklin's expedition, which
drifted in on the tide in Erebus bay.
North Devon island, the bay being
named after the Franklin ship Erebus.
It Is a wooden spear with iron point
and the name Erebus stamped upon lt.
The spear from the Franklin expedi­
tion was probably lost overboard in a
storm and drifted, swept on by ice
and tide, to Erebus bay. The wreck
o f the Erebus was found on O’Reilly
island, south of Victoria strait, by Es­
kimos years ago.
For fifteen days Captain Bernier and
members of his Arctic expedition on
board the Guide were caught in the Ice
of M elville bay, in latitude 75. A fter
battling with huge masses of ice drift­
ing down from the north for two weeks
the Guide managed to get free from
the Ice packs and make her way into
the open sea.
An Interesting theory of a route to
the pole for a vessel is advanced by
Captain Bernier, and is based upon
deductions made from his discoveries
of relics of marine disasters in the
Arctic and study of the polar tides. He
believes that, starting from a certain
point In the Arctic, a ship well equip­
ped can make the voyage from ocean
to ocean and to the Pole.

witness, was asked if he heard the
defendant call the plaintiff a lawyer.
" I did," was the reply.
“ Pray,” said the judge, “ what is
your opinion of the import of the
word ?’’
"Th ere can be no doubt o f that,”
replied the fellow.
"W hy, my good man,” said the
judge, "there is no dishonor in the
name, is there?”
"I know nothing about that,” ans­
wered he, “ but this I know— if a man
called me a lawyer I'd knock him
down.”
“ Why. sir," said the Judge, pointing
to one of the counsel, “ that gentleman
