CHAITKH IL "flhandon was Impatient to be off, and nxed tho zzd of February for starting. Tha sledga and the boat were packed as eloaely aa possible with pro visions and spirits, and heap ot wood, to obtain which thay had hewed the briar down to her water line. The last day the men ran riot. They complete ly sackod the ship, and In a drunken paroxyirn 1'tn and two or three others set It on fire, I fought and struggled ognlnit them, but they threw me down and asunlled me with blows, and ti.:n the wrltch, houded by Bhandon, went oft towards tho east, and were soon out of sight "I found myself alone on the burning ship, and what could I doT The fire hole waa completely blocked up with ice. 1 had not a single drop of water? For two days the Forward struggled with the flamts, and you know tho reat." A long silence followed the gloomy recital, broken at length by Hattcraa. who saldi "Johnon, I thank you; you did all you could to save my ship, but single handed you could not resist. Aln I thank you, and now let the subject be dropped. Iet us unlto efforts for our common salvation. There are four of us, four companions, four friends, and all our lives are equally precious. "We are all devoted to you," said the doctor; "and your words como from our hearts. Dut what do you think we should dor "My opinion might appear Interest ed," until Hattaras, sadly. "Let me hear all your flrat." "Captain." said Johnson, "before pro nouncing on such an Important matter, I wish to ask you a question." "Ask It. then. Johnson." "You went out yeatarday to ascer tain our exact position; well, la the field drlfttng or stationary!" "rorfectly stationary. It had not moved since the last reckoning waa made." A dlacusalon opened at once about what to da Hattcraa wanted still to try to reach the pole, aa retreat seemed equally Impossible. "Wo may nnd rich hunting grounds," he urged. "Wo know the route back Is barren." The other three wouldn't listen to such a proposal and Hattaraa was de claring he would start for the pole alone, when he felt a light touch on his arm. It was Altnmont, tho American, who had crawled out of bad and man i gad to yet on his knees. He was try ing to speak, but hfs swollen lips could icarcely make a sound. Hattems went towards him, and watched him so at tentively that In a few minutes he made out a word that sounded llko Porpoise. Stooping over him he naked: "Is It the PorpolseT" Altamont made a sign In the affirm attv and Hattcraa went on with his queries, now that ho had found a claw. "In these seaaT" The affirmative gesture waa repeated. "la sho In the north r "Yes." -Do you know her position!" "Yea." "Kxactlyr "Yes.; For a'mlnute or so nothing more was said, nnd the onlookers waited with Wll'ltmlng hearts. Then Hattcraa spoko again. "Ltatcn to, me. Wo muat know the exact position ot our veaaeh I will count the degrcea nloud, and you will atop me when I come to the right one." The American aaaented by a motion of the head, and Hatteras began: "We'll take the longitude Arst. One hundred and Ave degrees, NoT 10 de BTOf. 107 degreoaT It la to the west, t suppoaeT" "Yea," replied Altamont "Let us go on, then: 109 degrees, 110 degrees. 111 degrees, 114 degrees, 116 degrees, US degrees, no degrees." "Yea," Interrupted the stele man.' "One hundred and twenty degreea ot longitude, and how many mtnutesT I will count" Hatteras began at No. 1. and when he got to IS, Altamont made a sign to stop. "Very good." said Hatteras; "now for tho latitude. Are you Itstenlng? Elghty degrees, ai degrees, 81 degroes, 81 degrees." Again tho sign to stop waa made. "Now for tho minutes: Five minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 20 minutes, IS minutes, 30 minutes, SS minutes." Altamont stopped htm once more, and smiled feebly. "You say, then, that tho I'orpoljo Is In longitude 120 degreea 15 minutes, and lutltudo 81 degreea and 35 min utes r "Yes," stghed tho American, and fell back motionless In the doctor's arms. completely ovorpowored by tho effort ho had made, , ' "Frlondsl" exclaimed Hattoras; "you sea I van right Our salvation lies In doed In tho north, always in the north. Wo shall bo eavod!" Dut the Joyous, exulting words had hardly escaped his llpsh before a sud den thought made his countenanco change. Tho serpent of Jealousy had stung him, for his stranger wna an American, and ho had reached three degree, near er the polo than tha Ill-fated Forward. By further patient questioning after a reat, the doctor aoon aacortalned that the Forpotae was a three-mast Ameri can ship, from' New York, wrecked on tho Ice, with provisions and combustl cles In abundance on hoard. Altamont and his crow had left her two months previously, taking tho long xxit with them on a aledge. They In tended to get to fJmlth's sound and reach some whaler that would take them back to America; but one after another succumbed to fatlguo and Ill ness, till only Altnmont remained alive. "Why had the I'orpolse coma so far north T' Hattaras asked. "Hhe waa Irresistibly driven there by the Ice," Altamont replied, feebly. Hatteras looked grim but eald noth ing more. "Well," said the doctor, "It strikes me that Instead of trying to get to Damns bay, our best plan would be to go In search of the I'orpolse. It's a tmrd nearer, and stocked with every thing necessary for winter quarters." "I soe no other course open to us," replied Hattaraa. "If ws start to-morrow" said tha doctor, "we must reach the I'orpolse by the 16th of March, unless we mean to die of starvation. No time waa lost In getting ready to start A couch waa laid on the sledge for tho American. The provisions did not add much weight and the wood waa piled up on top. The doctor calculated with three quarter rations to each man and full rations to the dogs, they might hold out for three weeks. Dy 1 In the afternoon everything waa ready for the start It waa almost dark, for, though the uii had reappeared above the horizon since the list ot January, Ita light waa feeble and of short duration. The moon would rise about half-post 8. The daya wore on. Progress waa slow, minding anow storms held them bock. Moreover, the men. In spite of their Iron will, began to show signs of fatigue. Halts became more fre quent and yet every hour waa pre cious, for the provisions were rapidly coming to an end. On the 14th of March, after sixteen days' march, the little party found themselves only yet In the eighty-second latitude. Their strength was ex hausted, and they had a hundred mites more to go. llatlons had to be still further reduced. Each man must be content with a fourth part to -Ulow the dogs their full quantity. ' . .' NX. k.' v wr x.,st, i nm' HATTULV8 rtKCD A.tD TUB HUB UQLLED OVER TJIt ICE. Worst of all there were only seven cliargea or powder left and alx balls. A little game waa ahot but quickly devoured. The weary men could hard ly drag themaelvca along by now. The dnri had began to gnaw their traces. Their last meal, on the Sunday even ing, waa a very sad one unless help came, their doom waa. sealed. The next morning Johnson saw a bear of huge dimensions. The old sailor took tt Into his head that heaven had wc: this bear specially for him to kill; nnd wtthlng waking hla comrades, ha seized the doctor's gun, and waa soon In pursuit On reaching the right distance be took aim; but Just aa hla nnger touch ed the trigger, he felt hla arm tremble. His thick gloves hampered him, he threw them off. Dut what a cry ot agony escaped hlml The skin ot his ffngera stuck to the gun aa If it had been red-hot, and he waa forced to let tt drop. The sudden fall made It go off. and tha ball wla discharged In the air. It waa the laat bullet Dr. Clawbonny came out and saw what had happened. He draggod the poor follow Into the tent, where he made htm plunge his ham Into a bowl ot water. Johnson's hands had hardly touched tt before It froze Immediately, "You are Just In time; I ahould have had to amputato soon," aatd the doc tor. CHAPTEn HL That morning they had no breakfast Pemmlcan and salt beef were both gone. Not a crumb ot biscuit remain ed. They were obliged to content themselves with half a cup of hot cot feo and start off again. They scarcely went three mites be fore thoy wore compelled to give up tho day. Thoy had no supper but cof fee, and tho doga were so ravenous that they were almost devouring each other. Another day thirty-four hours since thoy had tasted food. Yet they contin ued their march, sustained by their su perhuman energy of purpose. They had to push the sledge themselves, for the dogs could no longer draw It Then Johnson drew haggard-eyed and wild. He caught the doctor's arm that night , "That bear la following us," he cried, hoarsely. "A bear following usT" "Yea, for the last two days." "Have yoij Been hlmT" "Yea. about a mile leeward." "Terrible. And we havon't a single ball to send after html" said in df '.or. "He Is reckoning on n good feed of human ffcshl" cried Johnson, his brain giving way. "He I sure enough of hla meal!" continued the poor fellow. "He nust be hungry, and I do not see why wo should keep him waiting." "Johnson, calm yourself." "Uo, Mr. Clawbonny, since we must dlo, why prolong the suffering of the poor bens IT Ho Is famished llko our selves. There are no seals for him to cat, and heaven sends him menl Ho much the better for him, that's nllt" Johnson wne fast going mad. Tho situation was desperate, "Johnson," said the doctor, "I shall kill that bear to-morrow!" "To-morrow!" said Johnson, aa if waking up from some bad dream. "Yes, to-morrow." "You have no bullets.' "I'll make one." "You have no lead!" "No, but I have mercury." 86 saying, he took the thermometer which stood at SO degrees above xero, went outalde and laid It on a block of Ice. At dawn they rushed out to look at It All the mercury had frozen Into a hard piece of metal ready for usa. Just then Hatteras made his appear ance, and the doctor told him hla pro ject and showed him the mercury. The captain grasped hla hand silent ly and the three went off In quest ot their game. They soon sighted him, about 200 yards distant "Friends, this Is no Idle sport" said Hatteras. "Wo muat act prudently. "Yes," replied the doctor, "we hava but the one shot We must not miss. He would outstrip a hare In neatness!" "We must go right up to him," said Hatteraa. "I have a plan." "What Is Itr asked the doctor. "Wall, you kept the skin of the seal you kilted, didn't your "It U on the sledge." "All right! We'll gat It Leave Johnson here to watch It" At the snow hut Hatteras slipped Into Uie seal skin. "Now, give me the gun." he said. "Courage, Hatteras!" eald the doc tor, handing him the weapon, which he had loaded with the mercury bullet Soon a seal waa making Its way to ward the bear. It waa a perfect Imi tation. Tha bear, greedy-eyed, waited. When the seal waa ten paces away tho monster sprang forward with a i I J J .'JUIJ I v i J i i tremendous bound, but stopped short. i aa threw off hla disguise, knelt on one ma aimea airaignt at the beara heart He fired and the huge monster rolled back on the tee.
