I TRAGIC LOSS OF
PARTY IS
Intrepid Captain and Four of
His Men Had Reached Pole
and Were Returning.
NEWS of the appalling disaster
which caused the death of Cap
tain Robert F. Scott and four
of his men recently shocked the
world. It brings to timeliness the In
teresting story of the great venture
Into tho antarctic regions. Those lost
besides Captain Scott were:
Lieutenant E. It. Evans, R. N., sec
ond in command of tho proposed weet
orn party.
Dr. E. A. Wilson, chief of the scien
tific staff, zoologist and artist
Lieutenant H. R. Bowers, Royal In
dian marine.
Captain L. E. G. Oates, in charge of
ponies and dogs.
Captain Scott, with his associate par
ty of scientists and big crow of sailors,
had been on a farrcachlng scientific
quest, which Included flnding the south
pole as merely an Incidental. The ven
turers were found dead, the victims of
a fierce blizzard which caught them
on their return, after having had com
plete success In reaching the pole. The
ship Terra Nova, which had taken the
party into the antarctic and had gone
to bring It back, discovered the tragedy.
Captain Scott nrrlved Jan. 18, 1012,
at the south pole renched by Ronld
Amundsen. Amundsen had come to
his final halt there one month and
one day before. The Norwegian flag
which he had planted there was found
flying by Captain Scott. Documents
found on the bodies of the dead re
counted these facts.
This news came to London first in un
confirmed rumors nnd then in a cable
gram from Oamaru, New Zealand, re
porting that the Terra Nova had an
nounced her early roturn by wireless
"because of a grave calamity" to the
Scott expedition.
In all the history of arctic or ant
nrctic exploration there has been no
fatality to equal the death of Captain
Scott and his men. Other expeditions
have perished from cold, from starva
tion or shipwreck; the bodies of other
scientists have been found emaciated
In tho snow, and perhaps some of these
had discovered tho pole they sought,
but there is no parallel of n polar hunt
swiftly and scientifically accomplish
ed, with accurate records set down,
J which was cut cut oft at Its very ter
mination. A Continent of Death.
The antarctic has long been known
ns a continent of death. It has neither
the flora nor the fauna of the arctic.
An occasional penquln or a migratory
seal may be found near the ocean, but
the Interior has always been a whlted
waste. Captain Scott and his men in
habited the continent longer probably
than any other human beings, and it
was aB If one of the diabolical blizzards
which ewirl across the high plateaus
bad determined to exact from them
before they could escape the price paid
by all other life in its frozen area.
Tho circumstance is particularly trag
ic from the fact that Roald Amundsen
only a month before had come and
gone In weather so exceptionally balmy
that the Norwegian has been Inclined
to discount the reports of earlier ex
plorers of the blighting winds of the
plateau. That he was somewhat earlier
than Scott had something to do with
It, but tho choice of routes also contrib
uted to the easo of Amundsen's Journey.
Captain Scott selected the same route
bo had taken in his first expedition,
1002-4, and later by Shackleton, push
ing up the mountains from McMurdo
sound and reaching high altitude early
In the march as well as exposing the
party to the blizzards almost from first
to last
Report of a Member.
Writing to the London Times on
Captain Scott's plans and purposes,
Herbert G. Pontlng, a member of the
original western party, who returned
somo time ago, denied that Captain
Scott was ever In the race for the
south pole, but waB leading a great
scientific expedition and confined his
attention to that object. This report
from one of the explorers is interest
ing. It Is ns follows:
"Since ray return to England from
tho antarctic, having completed my
work of illustrating Captain Scott's
expedition, I havo found that much
misapprehension exists in regard to
the objects of that enterprise. The
popular idea that tbero has been a
race to tho south polo is nn error. Cap
tain Scott has not been racing, nor has
bo been engaged upon a mcro dash to
tho pole. He is leading a great scien
tific expedition perhaps1 tho greatest'
ever sent out from England and tho
teaching of the south polo was but an
icident in the extensive program .of.
Work mapped out To race would have
been to Jeopardizo the success o.th4
main objects of the erpedltfon'isd"
Captain Scott would not allow the
presence of a rival In tho field to move
blm from the course which he consid
ered wisest and best
"Within four months of our depar
ture from New Zealand he had lost nlno
ponies out of nineteen, nearly half tho
total transport on which he was chief
ly relylnsr. It would be Impossible to

overstato the seriousness of this loss.
Had two or three more ponies suc
clumbed It Is doubtful whether the
main objects of the expedition could
ever have been; achieved, as in this
work success Is entirely dependent on
the transport of a certain amount of
food. It was principally due to this
mlsfortuno that Captain Scott did not
start on tho polar Jotirney till Nov. 1.
His original plans provided for leaving
Cape Evans on Oct. 1, but October is
a very cold aud tempestuous month,
nnd to have exposed the remaining
transport animals to the additional
hardships which, this weather would
have entailed would have Involved too
grave a risk. He therefore reluctant
ly postponed his start for a month.
That month probably lost for Captain
Scott the honor of being first at tho
south pole.
Not Engrossed In Solar Quest.
"Among the congiatulatlons to Cap
tain Amundsen on his achievement
those of Captain Scott will be the
heartiest of all. More than any other
man can he appreciate what it means
to press such an enterprise to success.
Captain Scott himself would have wel
comed October's hardships, for that

him or any member of the landing
party use, but he would not allow any

really unnecessary exposure and risk
to the animals he was dependent on to
mar his chance of reaching the desired
goal, as failure to get to the pole last
season would have meant also the ruin
of all this season's plans. He told me
that he was much more Interested in
the work mapped out for this season
and considered It of greater geograph
ical Importance than reaching the pole.
"When the last supporting party, led
by Lieutenant (now Commander) Ev
ans, left Captain Scott on Jan. 4 the
polar party were only 145 miles from
the goal of their hopes and In excellent
health and spirits and were traveling
at the rate of fifteen miles a day. All
being well, the pole should therefore
have been reached about Jan. 15 last.
Caches of food had been made every
sixty miles along the route. There wns
aFilo for the explorers to enjoy full
KKS on tl10 wuole return Journey.
TLMarty were expected back at Hut
Polnrafteen miles from Cape Evans,
where the Terra Nova was waiting for
them, about March 1C, but on March 5
the sea was freezing so rapidly that
Lieutenant Pennell, then commanding
(he ship, considered It unwlso to re
main longer, owing to the hourly In
creasing risk that tho ship would be
frozen in. It Is unfortunate that we
were unable to remain a week or ten
days longer, as we should almost cer
tainly havo brought back with us the
newB that Captain Scott had reached
the pole about Jan. 15. He and his
companions probably returned to win
ter quarters before the end of March.
No further news can bo received from
him until tho Terra Nova again re
turns from the far south, about tho
end of next March. The .members who
accompanied Captain Scott to the polo
aro Dr. Edward Wilson, Captain L. E.
G. Oates, Lieutenant Bowers and Petty
Officer Evans.
"Captain Scott has tremendous stay
Jng..p.pwer and any amount of energy
tf tho right kind the kind that sets a
Weadv pace and keeps it up all day.

through we shall htnr next year that
he has not failed to accomplish all to
which he has set his hand." ,
Captain Soott's Life.
Captain Robert Falcon Scott, R. N.,
O. V. O., F. R. G. S., commander of
England's most Important antarctic
expedition, was bom at Devonoort,
SHOCK
WORLD
England, on Juno 0, 18C8. After at
tending school at Stubblngton House,
Farebam. he entered the royal nav.y' at
tho age of fourteen. As a cadet on,
board the training ship Britannia he
gained somo distinction as one of the
cadet captains. When Scott's course on
the Britannia was completed he was
Bent to the Capo of Good Hope nuval
station. He served for two years as a
lieutenant on the Rover, which was in
he British Pacific service.
The character of his service qualified
aim to take a special course of train
ing, and as a four, one nnd two man In
his examinations ho had the privilege
of choosing the subject in which he
wished to specialize. He decided to
take up torpedo work, and after quali
fying in this he received assignments
to one slilp after another for eight
years. After gaining an extra stripe
Lieutcnnnt Scott was appointed as a
torpedo lieutenant to H. M. S. Majestic,
a battleship of the first class and flag
ship of the channel squadron. His as
signment to the Majestic marked the
turning point of his career, for his
commanders were Sir H. Stephenson
and Prince Louis of Battenberg, two
arctic enthusiasts who had served un
der Sir Leopold McCllntock on a North
west passage expedition.
Had to Help Support Family.
About this time it became necessary
for Scott to help with the support of
bis family, and to see what possibilities
thero were for adding to his lieuten
ant's salary he went to London. There
he met by chance Sir Clements Mark
ham, chairman of tho Royal Geograph
ical society, who had previously shown
Interest In Scott He suggested to the
young lieutenant that he apply for the
command of the Discovery, which was
then being fitted out to explore the lit
tle known antarctic continent.
Scott was chosen from a long list of
applicants. Ho was then twenty-nine
years old, healthy, strong and well
built. For a year he worked over the
provisioning nnd equipping of his ship
nnd over the selection of his crew and
scientific staff. On July 28, 1000, the
whaler Discovery left the Thames with
forty men, prepared for an expedition
to last three years If necessary. The
ship reached New Zealand after a
rough time In the "roaring forties" nnd
thence sailed for the nntnrctlc regions.
Two years of hardship resulted In tho
conquering of COO miles more of ant
arctic suow nnd lco than any of his
predecessors covered.
Upon his return to England many
honors were bestowed upon him. The
admiralty raised him to the rank of
captain, making him the youngest cap
tain in tho navy, nnd the late King Ed
ward made him commander of the Vic
torian Order. Medals were given him
by the Royal Geographical society,'
Royal Scottish Geographical society
and American, Swedish, Danish, Phila
delphia and Antwerp Geographical so
cieties. The story of the expedition
was published by Captain Scott In "Tho
Voyage of the Discovery," and the two
volumes were widely rend.
Gets High Post.
The admiralty nllowed him three
months in which to give lectures, tho
hardest task he ever undertook, so
Captain Scott said. Returning to serv
ice In the nnvy, he was nsslgned to the
Intelligence department of the admi
ralty. For six years he continued at his
desk, but finally "the call of the lco"
could no longer be resisted, and he set
out to raise fiinds for fitting out an
other expedition. After surmounting
many difficulties Captain Scott secured
the necessary financial assistance and
had his expedition ready to start for
his ultimate goal, the south pole.
When Captain Scott sailed he left be
hind a wife, whom ho had married two
years before, and an eigbt-months-old
son, Peter, "the image of his father."
The little fellow's baby idea of his
father was a photograph, which ho
would hug and cover up, saying, "Keep
daddy warm."
When word was received by Mrs.
Scott last April that her husband In
tended to remain longer than at first
expected she said: "I am not worried
about the captain's safety. On tho oth
er hand, I am very glad that he availed
himself of the opportunity to remain in
the south until' tho objects of his expe
dition, which was one of scientific re
search, aro accomplished." Only last
week Mrs. Scott sailed with her baby
from San Francisco for New Zealand,
expecting to greet her husband on bis
arrival there.
Mrs. Scott Is a sculptress, and short
ly before the start of the fatal expedi
tion she modeled the captain's clean
cut features, his broad shoulders and
deep chest, nis whole bearing bespoke
a man of indomitable energy nnd cour
age. TO USE MUSIC ON PRISONERS.
