CookLeader of the Most Successful of Antarctic Expeditions, and Prominent In the Search for Both Poles. Tliu accompanying ittory from the pon of Dr. Frederick A. Cook, the well-known Arctic unil Antarctic explorer. In to np pwir In the forthcoming volume. "The White World," nnd Is reproduced by spe cial arrangement with tho publishers, lwls, Scrlbncr & Co., of New "York. "Tho White World" gives the personal opcrlcnces of twenty-two prominent ex plorers, and Is the first connected nccount of polar exploration from the tlmo of tho Kuno expedition to the present. Directly upon tho announcement of every polar expedition, applications by tho hundred pour In from young men, nnd some women not so young, who are eager to Join in the search for the se crets of tho frozen fastnesses, which have thus far defied man's most heroic efforts. It Is curious thnt so many should volunteer their services for so arduous a task. Why so many appli cants? Why Is this pole-secklng so popular? Surely these aspirants are not familiar with the real phases of the life of an explorer. From beginning to end the work of nn exploring party Is hard; to endure hardships and to suffer are tho nor mal conditions. On such expeditions there are few servants nnd few men to do the drudgery of dally work. om cers, as well as sailors, must mend their hose, wash their garments, cook, and fill the places of carpenters, shoemak ers and what not. Tho work is like woman's work in that it Is never fin ished. People often ask: "What do you do to pass the time?" One is never more busy, or more thorougly occupied, than when performing the duties of a well-organized expedition. Let us follow briefly the life of a sledge traveler. He tarts out for a determined poleward dash, taking with him no money to buy necessities and comforts en route, no trunk with little luxuries, but his bed and his house, with fuel and provisions for three months or more. All this Is In such a shape that he must be prepared at any moment to carry his baggage on his back for miles. There are no half-way Inns, no houses, no shelter, and no ba zaars by the wayside. If he has for gotten or lost anything it cannot be obtained. Ho is far away from tho fa miliar world, far from the accustomed comforts of life, and as completely iso lated as If he was on the surface of the moon. Day after day he plods along over desolate fields of rough Ice, push ing nnd pulling sledges, urging and whipping the wolfish dogs. He is al ways too tired to talk, frequently too weary to eat, and often also too un comfortable to sleep. Still, he has re solved to make the effort of his life, and he continues to press onward. THE DAILY MENU. One day ho advances five miles, the next day twenty miles, nnd again but a mile, and then comes a storm which causes a halt of five days. As time goes on the stock of provisions de creases, the load becomes lighter, but he finds his distance all too small. Half rations are now served. Here tofore the full ration would seem a starvation diet, but now it is only half, and the character of this is such as to make one's marrow shrink. Here is tho day's gastronomic comfort: For breakfast, two cups of tea, a few ship's biscuit, hard and tough, a bit of pom mican twenty years old, which Is made of equal quantities of dried meat and beef tallow. No luncheon, except a soap-like cake of bacon-fat mixed with pulverized peas. For dinner the breakfast is repeated, with an extra treat In the form of a large drink of water, If the fuel supply will permit such a luxury. Experience has proved that this is the most practicable bill of fare, and it does not permit of much elaboration. Except the tea everything Is taken cold, and today, when I think of my chattering teeth and quivering muscles while trying to devour the straw-like pemmlcan I am doubly glad of the comforts of home. It Is really remarkable to sec how this scant polar diet keeps up the physi cal powers, and It Is even more remark able to see how a fat piece of frozen pemmlcan will change a hungry man's mind. Hunger is as normal to the ex plorer as tho shivers, and both com plaints are treated by the same remedy food for when the stomach Is full the body is warm. When the day's Journey Is ended, tho tongue burns, tho throat Is parched, and there is an uncomfort able pinching at the pit of the stomach. One feels like eating a mountain and drinking a river; but the effect of pem mlcan upon this condition is marvel ous. It Is too hard to eat rapidly, so ono nibbles away, shivers and dreams of better times. The dry, uncooked bits of meat go down with a snatch und some effort, and ono is very conscious of Its position in tho stomach by a heavy, full feeling, which Is always a Joy to hungry mortals, Long before the half-pound lump, which Is the usual al lowance, disappears, tho pangs of hun ger are forgotten, and theii a desire for ti hot cup of tea, to take away the scratchy feeling Is all that Is necessary to make life again worth living. THE ALL-IMPOTITANT SLEEPING BAG. The diet of a sledge traveler Is not so bad when you have nothing else within reach, but the gods could not rorce a man to eat It If he had the chance of something else Instead. One takes to It about as kindly as a convict does to prison diet. It Is not so bad with tho bed, Among tho incidents of bed-going are to be found the happiest moments of on ex plorer's life. It Is a pity that the North Pole cannot bo reached In a sleeping bag, for therein lies the foundation of most of the comforts of polar adven tures. This is as It should be, for when a man forces his powers of endurance to their utmost he must have proper rest; but this rest Is generally of short fduratlon and Is always carefully guard- u, juui'K uciiciiub uiun me moon of the elements, the location of camp, the cut of your sleeping-bag and also upon Outt, Bruiiei .and Burnt Quickly Healed, Chamberlain's Pain Balm Is an antl ept.a liniment, and when applied to ruts, bruises und burns, causes them to heal without maturation and much more quickly than by the usual treat menu For sale by All Druggists, your companions. If tho wind blows hard It always carries necdte-llko crys tals of Ice, nnd this drives down your back with an unpleasurable eaBc. If the camp Is pitched In some nook out of the wind, you nrc quickly burled under a drift of snow. If the sleeping-bag Is too thin or too thick, If It Is too long or too short, or If It has any one of a dozen faults, It makes life n torture. Borne prefer a "one-man bag," others a bag for three. Now, I like a "three-man hag," but I want to select my bed-fellows carefully, and I also want to se lect my position In the bag. When three men arc slipped Into a bag, like fingers Into a glove, there Is not much room for discussion. Such men must not have bristles which can be rubbed the wrong way, for there Is nothing worse than sulphurous language In a sleeping-bag. It does not matter how charming a companion a man may be ordinarily, he Is a different sort of u creature In a bag; and then, too, men have such different ways when asleep. COLD NOT WORST DISCOMFOUT. It Is tho general belief that polar ex plorers suffer mostly by reason of the intense cold, and that success or fail ure Is due to the powers of endur ing low temperatures, but this Is far from tho truth. True, there are snow and Ice everywhere In evidence. Snow falls during the summer as well as during the winter. For this, however, we are prepared; suitable garments and experience so fit the body that we do not really suffer much more from the effects of cold than does a New Yorker In winter; and we avoid tho life-reducing heat of the home sum mer. Still, I do not mean to Infer that the cold Is ever forgotten. Tho conditions are such that the absence of heat Is constantly brought to mind. When wo start out from our comfortable rooms at headquarters we emerge from an agreeable temperature of seventy de gres Into an icy air of minus forty de grees, which makes a difference of one hundred and ten degrees of cold within ten seconds. This causes the breath to come in Jets of steam, and soon tho whiskers, the eyebrows and every fragment of hair and fur about tho face are covered with Icicles and crys tals of hoar frost; beautiful little things, but they do not seem pretty at all to the possessor, for he Is constant ly brushing them off, pulling out bunches of hair and blowing out warm phrases. Ono never learns the real trouble of the life of the frigid zone until ho has his face bejeweled with Icicles. Owing to the natural laws of radia tion the extremities lose their heat first. The carctess traveler constant ly suffers from cold hands and feet, and ever a careful adept loses his fin gers or toes with remarkable ease. We start out on a mission, traveling over the Icy waste of white wilderness, and for a time all are happy, comfortable and contented. After a few hours we become thirsty, but we well know that there Is nothing to quench our thirst, for, though there Is water everywhere, it is frozen. Later, we become hun gry, but we must delay satisfying the pangs until our destination is reached. We plod on and on over the weary snows until we find a camping place. Then we pitch camp; but now one has a stinging feeling in his toes; after a time this vanishes and is replaced by loss of sensation In a large part of the foot. The boot Is removed and through the many thicknesses of hose the thing feels like something foreign. One stock ing after another is cautiously taken off, but still thefre Is a woody touch to the foot. When) the last stocking Is stripped down the foot Is found white and glossy, like porcelain. A more care ful examination reveals the fact that one or two toes are missing, and then the sock Is shaken for the missing bits before an effort is made to restore the circulation of the ley tissues. But an explorer must learn to rise above such little discomforts. He who cannot af ford to lose strips of his skin, or parts of his hands nnd feet, is not worthy to be counted among the braves who seek the poles. DEPRESSION OF TERRIBLE LONE LINESS. No! It is not the cold which makes the life of frigid explorers hard. It Is tho hopelessness of the unimaginable isolation from the accustomed walks of life. Perhaps It Is unbecoming to the supposed austerity of explorers to ad mit that the withdrawal of the little home and social incidents of life are the causes of the greatest discomfort, but this Is nevertheless the fact. One misses most the little touches of rom ance which axe unconsciously a part of our dally entertainment. After being locked in the Ice nnd forced to endure Its awful monotony for u few months, what would one not give for a letter, or a word from home, from mother or sisters, or other men's sisters? Ordi narily men do not know what It Is which makes life enjoyable, but he who alms to reach the North Pole will quickly learn he suffers not from tho cold or hunger, but from the little nothings of home and social life which are far out of reach. I might go on and recite a hundred other lessons which go to make up the schooling of, and desperation of, tho pole-seekers, but I must hasten to rec ord the comforts. These are few, but they exist to him who seeks them. For here Is tho world nearest to Its youthful character. Tho moving crust of the earth, with which we drift, the hardy, simple life, and oven the sky, all suggest a period of the earth In Its Infancy long before tho advent of man. It Is this strange simplicity, this other world air of terrestrial youth, which makes the polar regions so fascinating to nature-loving man. Everything nbout Is simple, yet clothed In mystery; every phenomenon, like a shy maiden, Is attractive but difficult of access. Every point of attraction, which at first bewilders us by Us strangeness, becomes a written page to be added to tho future annals of science. There are a hundred things which, In this way, dally present new aspects and urge the mind out of Its lethargy of monotony into a state or rascmatlon. It Is this fresh Interest In the un known which makes life tolerable. Wo all like to ponder over tho days of our youth; those of an Inquiring turn of mind love to reflect upon the youthful days of the earth; and looking at the polar world, as a whole, It bears a close relation to what It must have been when man first came to It. Life under such conditions brings new Joys In spite of the soul-despairing discomforts, SHOT AT PARIS POLICE CHIEF, By Exclusive Wire from The Auoclttcd Press. Paris, June 3. As M. Leplne, tho prefect of police, was leaving a hospi tal yesterday, where he had been visit ing a policeman who was Injured in a recent riot, several pistol shots were fired at him from a group of men who stood on the opposite side of the street. M. Leplne was not hurt, and the men fled. As no policemen were present at the time, no pno was arrested. THE MARKETS Wall Street Review. New York, Juno 3, It would bo useless tb seek for anything but a negative Infer ence from tho operations In today's stock market owing to tho strinllness of tho dealings and tho languid movement of pitccs. Variations of 'as much as a point aro raro and must be sought amongst tho obscuro portions by St. Paul, usually nn octlvo leader of tho market, but today there was only three transactions up to 2 o'clock hi this stock. Tho undertone was lather llrm as tho lmmcdlato nowu developments wcro fnvorablo to values. The Inlying was entirely by small profes sional traders and the market was so nar row that they were obliged to concede all of the advance In in Ice caused by their bidding In order to cloxo out a contract. Tho traders bought during tho llrst hour In tho belief that the success of the an' thraclte opcratois in keening their mine pumps going, In spite of tho strike, would picsogo a Who In tho valuo of anthracite stocks. Importance was also attributed to tho notable Increase In tho receipts of corn and the resultant decline In the corn market. The higher rate for money was probably the most Influential factor in tho depressing condition of tho market. Kates for call money ruled about last week'n maximum throughout. Total sales today, 131,100 shares. There was an active de mand for Consolidated Tobacco 4's. Oth erwise the bond market was dull nnd Ir regular. 'Total sales, par value, $1,103,003.
