INTRODUCTION BY PEARY.
Some of my reasons for saying that
Dr. Cook did not go to the north pole
will be understood by those who read
the following statements of the two
Eskimo boys who went with him, and
who told me and others of my party
where he did go. Several Eskimos
who started with Dr. Cook from An
oratok in February, 1908, were at
Etah when I arrived there in August,
4908. They told, me that Dr. Cook had
with him, after they left, two Eskimo
boys, or young men, two sledges and
some twenty dogs. The boys were
I-took-a-shoo and Ah-pe-Iah. I had
known tbcm from their childhood.
One was about eighteen and the other
about nineteen years of age.
On my return from Cape Sheridan
and at the very first settlement I
touched (Nerke, near Cape Chalon) In
August, 1909, and nine days before
reaching Etah, the Eskimos told me,
in a general way, where Dr. Cook had
been; that he had wintered in Jones
Sound, and that he had told the white
men at Etah that he had been a long
.way north, but that the boys who were
with him, I-took-a-shoo and Ah-pe-lah,
said that this was not so. The Eski
mos laughed at Dr. Cook's story. On
reaching Etah, I talked with the Es
kimos there and with the two boys
and asked them to describe Dr. Cook's
journey to members of my party and
myself. This they did in the manner
stated below.

Signed Statement of Peary, Bartlett,
McMillan, Borup and Henson, in Re
gard to Testimony of Cook's Two
Eskimo Boys.
The two Eskimo boys, I-took-a-shoo
and Ah-pe-lah, who accompanied Dr.
Cook while he was away from Anora
tok in 1908 and 1909, were questioned
separately and Independently, and
were corroborated by Panikpah, the
father of one of them (I-took-a-shoo),
who was personally familiar with the
first third and the last third of their
journey, and who said that the route
for the remaining third, as shown by
them, was as described to him by his
eon after bis return with Dr. Cook.
To go more into details: One of
the boys was called in. and. with a
chart on the table before him, was
asked to show where he had gone
with Dr. Cook. This he did, pointing
out with his finger on the map, but
not making any marks upon it
As he went out, the other boy came
In and was asked to show where he
had gone with Dr. Cook. This he did,
also without making any marks, and
indicated the same route and the
same details as did the first boy.
When he was through, Panikpah,
the father of I-took-a-shoo. a very in
telligent man, who was in the party
of Eskimos that came back from Dr.
Cook from the northern end of Nan
sen's strait, who is familiar as a hunt
er with the Jones Sound region, and
who has been in-Commander Peary's
various expeditions for some fifteen
years, came in and indicated the same
localities and details as the two boys.
Then the first boy was brought in
again, and with a pencil he traced on
the map their route, members of our
party writing upon the chart where
according to the boy's statement, they
had killed deer, bear, some of their
dogs, seal, walrus and musk oxen.
The second boy was then called in
and the two went over the chart to
gether, the second boy suggesting
some changes as noted hereafter.

It developed that Dr. Cook had told
these boys, as he told Mr. Whitney
and Billy Pritchard, the cabin boy,
that they must not tell Commander
Peary or any of us anything about
their journey, and the boys stated Dr.
Cook had threatened them if they
should tell anything.
The narrative of these Eskimos Is
as follows:
They, with Dr. Cook. Francke and
nine other Eskimos, left Anoratok,
crossed Smith's Sound to Cape Sabine,
slept in Commander Peary's old house
in Payer Harbor, then went through
Rice strait to Buchanan bay. After a
few marches Francke and three Eski
mos returned to Anoratok.
Dr. Cook, with the others, then pro
ceeded up Flagler bay, a branch of
Buchanan bay, and crossed Elles
mere Land through the valley pass at
the head of Flagler bay, indicated by
Commander Peary in 1898, and utilized
by Sverdrup in 1S99, to the head of
Sverdrup's "Bay Fiord" on the west
side of Ellesmere Land.
Their route then lay out through
this fiord, thence north through Sver
drup's "Heuerka Sound" and Nansen
strait
On their way they killed musk oxen
and bear, and made caches, arriving
eventually at a point on the West side
of Nansen strait (shore of Axel Hei
berg Land of Sverdrup), south of
Cape Thomas Hubbard.
A cache was formed here and the
four Eskimos did not go beyond this
point Two others, Koolootingwah and
Inughito, went on one more march
with Dr. Cook and the two boys,
helped to build the snow igloo, then
returned without sleeping.
(These two Eskimos brought back
a letter from Dr. Cook to Francke.
dated the seventeenth of March. The
two men rejoined the other four men
who had been left behind, and the six
returned to Anoratok, arriving May 7.
This information was obtained not
from the two Eskimo boys, but from
the six men who returned and from
Francke himself, and was known to
us in the summer of 1908, when the
Roosevelt first arrived at Etah. The
information is inserted here as supple
mentary to the narrative of the two
boys.)
After sleeping at the camp where
the last two Eskimos turned back. Dr.
Cook and the two boys went in a
northerly or northwesterly direction
with two sledges and twenty-odd dogs,
one or more march, when they en
countered rough ice and a lead of open
water. They did not enter this rough
ice, nor cross the lead, but turned
westward or southwestward a short
distance and returned to Heiberg Land
at a point west of where they had left
the cache and where the four men had
turned back.
Suggestion as to Clothing.

soft ancient Egyptian or modern Chi

are better still. If it were not for
buttons most laundering could be done
by machinery. New York Press.

After being informed of the boys'
narrative thus far, Commander Peary
suggested a series of questions to be
put to the boys in regard to this trip
from the land out and back to it
Did they cross many open leads or
much open water during this time?
Ans. None.
Did they make any caches out on
the ice? Ans. No.
With how many sledges did they
start? Ans. Two.
How many dogs did they have? Ans.
Did not remember exactly, but some
thing over twenty.
How many sledges did they have
when they got back to land? Ans.
Two.
Did they have any provisions left on
their sledges when they came back to
land? Ans. Yes; the sledges still had
about all they could carry, so they
were able to take but a few things
from the cache.
From here they went southwest
along the northwest coast of Heiberg
Land to a point indicated on the map
(Sverdrup's Cape Northwest).
From here they went west across
the ice, which was level and covered
with snow, offering good going, to a
low island which they had seen from
the shore of Heiberg Land at Cape
Northwest On this island they
camped for one sleep.
From this island they could see two
lands beyond (Sverdrup's Ellef Ring
nes and Amund Ringnes Lands). From
the island they journeyed toward the
left-hand one of these two lands
(Amund Ringes Land), passing a
small island which they did not visit.
Arriving at the shore of Amund
Ringnes- Land, the Eskimos killed a
deer as indicated on the chart
The above portion of the state
ment of the Eskimo boys covers
the period of time in which Dr. Cook
claims to have gone to the pole and
back, and the entire time during
which he could possibly have made
any attempts to go to it.
If it is suggested that perhaps Dr.
Cook got mixed and that he reached
the pole, or thought he did, between
the time of leaving the northwest
coast of Heiberg Land at Cape North
west, and his arrival at Ringnes Land,
where they killed the deer, we must
then add to the date, of Dr. Cook's let
ter of March 17th, at or near Cape
Thomas Hubbard, the subsequent four
or five sleeps at that point, and the
number of days required to march
from Cape Thomas Hubbard to Cape
Northwest (a distance of some sixty
nautical miles), which would advance
his date of departure from the land
to at least the 25th of March, and be
prepared to accept the claim that Dr.
Cook went from Cape Northwest
(about latitude eighty and a half de
grees north) to the pole, a distance of.

five hundred and seventy geographical
miles, in twenty-seven days.
After killing the deer they then trav
eled south along the east side of Ring
nes Land to the point indicated on the
chart, whero they killed another deer.
They then went east across the
south part of Crown Prince Gustar
sea to the south end of Heiberg Land,
then down through Norwegian bay,
where they secured some bears, but
not until after they had killed some of
their dogs, to the east side of Gra
ham Island; then eastward to the lit
tle bay marked "Eid's Fiord" on Sver
drup's chart; then southwest to Hell's
Gate and Simmon's peninsula.
Here for the first time during the
entire journey, except as already
noted off Cape Thomas H. Hubbard,
they encountered open water. On this
point the boys were clear, emphatic,
and unshakable. They spent a good
deal of time in his region, and finally
abandoned their dogs and one sledge,
took to their boat, crossed Hell's Gate
to North Kent up into Norfolk Inlet
then back along the north coast of
Colin Archer Peninsula to Cape Vera,
where they obtained fresh eider duck
eggs. Here they cut the remaining
sledge off, that is shortened it, as It
was awkward to transport with the
boat, and near here they killed a wal
rus. From Cape Vera they went on down
into the southwest angle of Jones
Sound, where they killed a seal;
thence east along the south coast of
the sound, killing three bears at the
point noted on the map, to the penin
sula known as Cape Sparbo on the
map, about midway on the south side
of Jones Sound. Hero they killed
some musk-oxen and, continuing east
killed four more at the place indi
cated on the chart, and were finally
stopped by the pack ice at the mouth
of Jones Sound. From here they
turned back to Cape Sparbo, where
they wintered and killed many musk
oxen. After the sun returned In 1909 they
started, pushing their sledge, across
Jones Sound to Cape Tennyson; thence
along the coast to Clarence Head;
(passing inside of two small islands
not'shown on the chart, but drawn on
it by the boys), where they killed a
bear; thence across the broad bight
in the coast to Cadogan Fiord; thence
around Cape Isabella and up to Com
mander Peary's old house in Payer
Harbor near Cape Sabine, where they
found a seal cached for them by Pan
ikpah, I-took-a-shoo's father. From
here they crossed Smith Sound on the
ice, arriving at Anoratok.

A Tramp Party.
"Now, for a tramp party," exclaimed
the clever matron to whom we all
looked for novel sensations when It
came to entertaining, "and we'll com
bine it with a penny walk."
So last year just about this time the
party was given which I am about to
describe. It hardly seems possible
that It has been almost a twelve
month since the above remarks were
made. It was not practical to use the
suggestion for the department then, so
I have waited for the glorious Sep
tember days to return.
The invitations were issued on
brown wrapping paper sealed with red
wax and the time was "Saturday after
noon at three sharp." The guests
were told to wear tramping costumes
and each man to bring, a bright, new
penny. Of course, all this excited
curiosity. There- were just eight cou
ples and the hostess saw that each
couple was congenially mated. It was
a lovely suburban place with winding
streets, hills and dales; just the place
for this pary.
The, men compared watches and
the hostess explained that they were
to walk for one hour, all making the
start together, hut at the very first
corner each man was to toss his pen
ny to 'decide the direction he and his
partner were to take. "Heads" meant
to go to the right "tails" to the left
At every corner, the penny was to de
cide the direction. Instructions were
given to write a three-minute descrip
tion of the walk. The first couple to
arrive at the expiration of tne hour
was to have a reward, and every min
ute overtime was to be paid for in
pennies at the rate of one a minute,
the money going to the hostess pet
charity fund.
A hair hour late would bar from
competition in the prize stories. It
was a very jolly, hungry party that
arrived and very amusing stories re
sulted which were read or related by
the "tramps" around the table when a
most bountiful supper was served.
The hostess used small tables, seat
ing four persons at each, and the day
being warm, the repast was served on
the porch, which was made a perfect
bower of golden rod decked with wild
lavender asters that bloom so plenti
fully now. All you have to do to find

An Introduction Party.
To break the Ice at a party where
the guests are unknown to each other
try this plan: At a large meeting of
a college fraternity, the chairman of
the social committee requested each
one who was to be presented to send
her the name la full. There' were
nearly 50 people present and there
were tally cards tied with the fraterni
ty colors, each having a large number.
On the reverse side of the cards given
the men were the names of the girls
present and the girls cards had the
names of the men. The acting hostess
explained that there would be no
formal introductions, that when a man
or a girl thought he or she had dis
covered "who was who" the name, or
rather the number opposite the name,
was to be marked. To the one who
made the largest number of "correct"
acquaintances a prize was awarded,
and there were special prizes for dis
covering the fads or peculiarities of
guests. This Is really a most Jolly
and effective method of placing a
large number of strangers at their
ease.

this end being then taken and bound
to tbe sole over the toe and extend

tbe ribbon having been neatly
hemmed, the upper part of the ribbon
is then drawn into a pretty rosette,
the thread securely fastened and the
result is as dafnty a little mule as
could be imagined. Last, the sole of
the slipper is bound all around with a
piece of silk cord the color of the silk

the ribbon toe is attached to the
