CAPTAIN ROBERT F. SCOTT'S
FAREWELL MESSAGE
(Contlnued'from Pago 13.)
Zealand This was the sale of his
story. . ,
He declined to mako any private
profit from the transaction and de
cided the total receipts should go to
increaso the finances of his men in
the dangers of the Antarctic. It was
arranged that all sums from the
story of the adventure should bo dis
tributed among the members of the
crow as a surprise benefit on their
return to England.
Mrs. Scott is assured of a good
pension from the British govern
ment. A memorial service for Captain
Scott and his companions is to bo
held at St. Paul's cathedral on Fri
day. Flags in all parts of London are
flying at half mast today.
The tragedy of Captain Robert F.
Scott's Antarctic expedition was re
ferred to today in the house of com
mons by Premier Asquith. Speaking
with evident emotion he said:
"Wo all at this moment are under
tho deep impression created by the
reading of the last message to the
world left by Captain Scott. It is
one of tho most moving and pathetic
utterances in the annals of historyv
the message of a brave and endur
ing man in th'o faco of a most tragic
death. His career was one of self
sacrifice. Wo can only say that his
appeal will not fall on deaf ears."
The premier was so deeply moved
that his words were almost inaudible.
His closing sentence indicates that
tho government will take caro of the
dependents .of the dead members of
tho expedition.

A THRILMNG PICTURE
Chicago, Fob. 11. -A thrilling pic
ture of the manner in which Robert
F. Scott and his four companions
met death on the ice barrier close
to the earth's southern extremity
was painted vividly by Captain Roald
Amundsen, discoverer of tho south
pole, who was in Chicago today.
"It is hard to say just what hap
pened," said the Norwegian explorer,
"but we can imagine, perhaps, al
though it is horrible. We know, of
course, that it happened about the
seventy-ninth parallel and that they
were down on the barrier and not
on tho plateau.
"Certainly they were exhausted
and starving. It may be that they
had some scurvey among them who
can say? At any rate they were not
in a fit condition to meet the ter-
riDio blizzard when it came.
"Not that blizzards are unusual.
Scott was prepared for blizzards, for
ho was no amateur. One may always
expect blizzards in that country, but
there they were those poor forlorn
reuows straggling along without
even their ponies to draw their
sledges, for they had sent back their
last ponies when they had reached
a point 150 miles from the pole on
tho journey southward.
"They were drawing their own
sledges, weakened thouerh riimr yy,.
have been. They had no dogs, and
that was a mistake, I am afraid. And
always before them there stretched
this awful waste of ice. Can you
see It? It ia flat Ice, stretching right
across tho country in long glassy
undulationsstretching away so far
and wide the eye can not bear to fol
low it, and across the frozen Burface
sweeps the furious wind. wh .
flat plateau is continually swept bv
these blasts,"
Captain Amundsen
hand before his evea.
"And there they died," he said
softly. "Of course Evans, Petty
Officer Evans, had died already. He
fell on the ice. But the others must
have died within a short time of ex-
