OCTOBER 11. 1595. A Worthy Successor. From the Hn/.lctoii Sentinel. Since Alexander I>. C'oxe declined t< accept the appointment of trustee for the state hospital here, the natne of .1. B. White has been mentioned quit<- prominently as the probable successor j to the late Daniel Coxe. No better se- 1 lection could be made. Mr. White'- j ability as a business man is well known, lie lias the energy and enterprise which a man in such position would be expect- ■ ed to possess. The name of Coxe has j been associated with the institution ] since its erection, and no other famih j has contributed more towards advancing its interests than have the Coxes of Drif ton. Mr. White, being a cousin of tin late Eckley 8., and directly connected j with the various enterprises of the es tate, their interests are identical. His I selection would bo a recognition of the favors so bounteously extended, and j would be pleasing to the community. There is no reason why well-meaning moil who are organized to advance a j town's interests should have the ir work retarded by the incessant spouting of the few among them who possess lb • power to deliver lengthy harangues, i Such people are veritable nuisances and ought not to be tolerated. Talk, and lots of it at proper places, providing it is of the right kind, has alwa\s been look ed upon as a factor of no small import- , ancc in helping a town, but that fact , should not be construed as a privilege by any man to monopolize the time and j attention of others and unload upon his audience the accumulated nonsense that his fancy gathers. Two years ago the Republicans carried ; the city of Indianapolis, hid., by 3,100 votes, and last year the city went Re publican by 2,470 on the state ticket. Last week the city ticket of the Demo cratic party was elected and the ma jority was 4,000, or a net gain of 0,500 in . two years. Of course the Republican I leaders try to pooh pooh the idea that this has any state or national signili cance, but politicians know better than to believe them. With the return of prosperity come Democratic victories every time. One of the men prominently mention ed as a delegate-at-large to the Republi can national convention is Dr. H. M. N< ale. of I'pper Lehigh. Dr. Xeale is a most magnificent fellow in every res pect, and no man in the county would more highly dignify the place or till it with greater credit. He enjoys a wide acquaintance throughout the >tate. and there are hundreds of infiiniitiul friends who would sustain a movement to send him as a representative at large.— Wilkes burro Newsdealer. In another column today Frank P. } Malloy announces his candidacy for the j Democratic nomination of poor director. ; Though the convention is more than three months o!T, Mr. Malloy is already at work and he confidently expects to \ be the nominee. Between the two poli tical parties there i> not much difference in the number of voters in the district, but if given the nomination Mr. Mallo) ( promises to use every honorable means . to make it Democratic again. The resignation of Councilman Winter, i which was accepted on Monday evening, removes from 1 lie borough council a ; gentleman whose earnestness and good intentions were apparent at every meet he attended since his election. That his successor may be as thoroughly imbued with the spirit to do right, and to k- p the, best interests of all the people in mind at all times, is a hope which every good citizen will cherish.

Drifting Across tho North Polar So a in His Little Ship. Will lie Ever Return Alive?—A Tails with. Mrn. Nansen in ller Home In t'hris tianta, Sweden—A Very C'our aceouM I.lttie Woiuau. COPYRIGHT. 1895. "I hope that Norwegian men and women will Bond kind thoughts to us while we drift through the cold, dark polar world." This was Dr. Frkljof Nanscn's fare well to his countrymen when he set out on his adventurous voyage in his stout little ship, the Fram; and it has been realized. There is to-day no more popular name in all Scandinavia than his. The thoughts of the people are kind, but they are gloomy. Few of the Nor wegians expect that Nansen will ever again see home. It is;i pleasure to me to call attention to some exceptions, to his friend and comrade, and, above EXPLORER NANSEK IN 1118 STUDY. all, to his devoted wife, and to tell some of the reasons why they are con fident that the problem of the pole is even now being solved, that some where in the unknown spaces never yet traversed by man the silent cur rents of the sea are bearing Nausen back again to human sight. It was more than two years ago, on August 3, 1805, when M. O. Christofer scn, secretary of the expedition, bade Nansen good-ly, as he turned his back upon the world at Chabarowa, in the strait of Jugor, Siberia. Mr. Christofersen knows all of Nan sen's plans, lie expressed to me the < ' EXPLORE KN A N SEN. most perfect confidence is the success of the undertaking, and said lie was pleased that nothing had been heard of Nansen. "According to the most accurate calculation," he said, "three at least, will be required for the journey to be completed, and if wo receive any information before the expiration of that time it is likely to be tidings of misfortune." This was reassuring, but my skepti cism was not completely eradicated THE Fit AM. until it became my good fortune, through a friend's invitation, to meet the charming young wife of the ex plorer, and from her lips 'hear an ex planation of the principles upon which her husband's plan is founded. Dr. Nauscn'fi home is picturesquely situated at Lysalccr, a suburb of Chris tiania. Here live his wife and daugh ter, the former an intellectual, vi vacious and cheerful young woman, the latter a beautiful little girl about two and a half years of age. Mere they wait his return in a characteristic Nor wegian home, in every part of which mementoes of the absent voyager meet their eyes. A bust of I)r. Nansen is the prominent object in the parlor. In every corner, on every little stand and table are photographs and paintings of the distant husband and father. The walls arc decorated with paintings rep resenting arctic scenes and adventures. Mine. Nansen belongs to one of the best families in Norway. Her maiden name was Lars and her mother is a sister of the poet Johun Sebastian Cammcrmeyer Welhaven, who was a contemporary of Vergeland. Mrae. Nansen is herself Norway's most popu lar concert singer. Her voice, though not equal to that of the opera singer, Gin a Oselio Hjornson, surpasses it in sweetness and purity of tone. Wher ever she appears, she is always enthu siastically greeted. Perhaps to the sympathy and admiration naturally drawn to Nan sen's wife, some portion of her success before the public may be due. She is an admirer of Dr. Grieg, the great Norwegian composer, and she alone sings his music before it is published. Mine. Nansen is not a beautiful woman, but is charming and interesting, a semi-brunette of medium height, with a well-built and symmet rical figure. Our conversation soon turned upon the one object of Interest—her husband and his expedition to the north pole. It did not depress her to talk about her absent husband; on the contrary sho was us happy as the lark she rivals, and at frequent intervals her clear and hearty laugh would cause the piano at my side to murmur in sympathy. "Not for a moment do I doubt his re- turn," she said. "Why, if I liad not felt the greatest confidence in his suc cess I should never have been foolish enough to let him go. The only thing which I can see that may prevent his return is a sheer misfortune whereby the vessel is crushed; even if Fram should be wrecked they have boats; if they, too, are lost, then, as a last re sort, they have tents to erect on the ice." I aslced if she had no desire to accom pany her husband. She answered promptly: "No, in deed; that would be outside of the sphere of a woman. That would not have been the proper tiling for me to do." I ventured to mention that Mrs. Peary acompanicd her husband on an < arctic trip. ; "Yes," she said, "and so much the worse for the expedition! It must have been a great burden to carry her along, although Mrs. Peary certainly showed much courage." Mine. Nausen, it may be inferred, does not advocate women's suffrage. "Did you ever try to persuade your , husband to give up his bold plan?" "No; on the contrary I urged and cn j couraged him to tho task, for it was his life work, and without an attempt at it he would never have been happy. : Since he was so unfortunate as to have such a desire, it was my duty to assist him in satisfying it." "So you call it a misfortune that he had such a desire?" "Well, I can't say I call it fortunate to have him up near tho north pole while I am sitting here." Mine. Nnnsen's faith in the success of tho expedition and tho safe return of her husband is sanguine, and as grounds for her belief she gave me an interesting account of Dr. Nansen's plans and told how they had gradually developed through many years of study ituci how they had finally led to the ex pedition. Since his twenty-second year Dr. Nan sen lias been contemplating cross ing the north pole, and with that end in view has been diligently studying the Arctic ocean currents. He noticed the two large currents flowing down the coasts of Greenland outof the polar regions. Approximate calculations showed that an enormous quantity of water was thus transported southward ly. Of course it would he impossible for the polar ocean to continue to yield such great volumes of water unless similar streams were somewhere flow ing into it. Dr. Nansen sought their source on the opposite side of the pole off the coast of Siberia, where he dis covered a great current which moved steadily toward the pole. Not only did the water flow toward the pole, but the thick ice crust was carried by the stream in the same direction. The idea struck Dr. Nansen that It would be possible to drift across the polo start ing oft* the coast of Siberia and coming out byway of Greenland. This idea was strengthened by the result of .Tames Gordon Bennett's Jeannette expedition of 1882-88. The Jeannette was ship wrecked between seventy degrees and seventy-eight degrees N. L. and one hundred and 6fty-five degrees L. E. G. Three years after some of the ship's stores were found near Cape Farewell, the southern extremity of Greenland, directly opposite the pole, from where they had been cast in the sea. It was evident that they must have driven across the polar regions. Dr. Nansen considered this theory, demonstrated and reasoned that if lie could have placed himself upon the stores lost by the Jeannette he would have crossed with them the polar sea. Hut, this is far from the only proof of a trans-polar current. Every week large quantities of driftwood arrive on Spitz bergen island and Greenland coasts by the polar route in Siberia. In this way the Esquimau is provided with all the wood he needs for houses, tools and fire. Without it ho could not ex ist. Furthermore, Dr. Nansen caused experts to examine the earth and rocks found on the ice which drift along the Greenland coast, and it was decided that these were identical with those of Siberia, and mus£ have drifted on the ice across the pole. In short, Dr. Nansen concluded that there is a short current flowing direct ly across the polar region, and that if a vessel could be built strong enough to resist the pressure of the ice, it would be possible to drift with that current across the pole. Dr. Nansen concluded that there must be an open polar sea, particularly from the fact that the majority of tho north pole expeditions have been stopped,-not, as most people believe, by ice, but by open water. Tho Austrian Ungarn expedition was stopped by open water at 82.5 degrees N. L. Lieut. Loekwood, of the Greeley expedition, was likewise stopped by open water at 8;>.24 degrees, N. L. Of course it will be understood that the open water pre vents the progress of dogs over the ice. Even if the theory of an open polar sea should not prove a reality, Dr. Nansen is likely to pass through tho mysterious region frozen tightly into an immense ice place over which he will have no control. In this case it is not certain that he will be able to pass directly over tho pole, but may be car ried some little distance to either side of it. He is in hopes, however, with the assistance of his dogs and sleighs to reach the very point where the earth's axis terminates the true geo graphical pole. Fram, Dr. Nan sen's vessel, is possibly the strongest and tho most carefully (Wife of Explorer Nanson.) built ship afloat. Its construction is such that when the ice freezes solidly around it and begins to press against the sides it will be lifted or pushed up ward and will rest upon the top of the ice long before the crushing' point is reached. The bottom is flat, the sides have great sheer. It is rigged lilcc a three-masted schooner and lias a screw propeller, which gives a speed of eight miles nn hour. It carries coal oil ami provisions for five years, though the trip is calculated to last only three. On previous polar expeditions it has been found dilllcult to keep the frost from penetrating the sides of the ship. : It was not rare to have the mattresses i under the sailors turn into lumps of ice. : Dr. Nansen has had layers of various material, almost impenetrable by frost, placed along the sides and under the deck. Pains have been taken to fur nish the vessel as warmly as possible, and a dynamo will furnish electric lights during the long nights. A wind mill is to furnish the power; if that fails it lias been so arranged that the men in taking their daily walks can at : the same time furnish the power for the i generator. Dr. Nansen was also care ful to have the ship stocked with a good library. Dr. Nansen has on a previous ocea j sion shown his skill and perseverance. • lie is the only person who has ever I crossed over the interior of Greenland. In 1888 he undertook the feat and was crowned with success. • before 1 left Dr. Nan sen's home, Mine. I Nansen showed me his study. The library contains a large percentage of all the books that have ever been writ ten 011 travels ami explorations. The walls are filled with all manner of relics, which Dr. Nansen has brought from Greenland and other arctic re gions. I ventured to suggest to Mine. Nan sen that the parting scene between her and her husband must have been ex ceedingly touching. Her reply was: *'Civilization has brought with it great self-oont.ro! and now the mind and not the inclination rules." It was a characteristic utterance of a brave man's plucky wife. NIELS GROF.N.
