However, perhaps the most interest- ing to the public was that made by Inspector A. H. Joy and Constable Taggart from Dundas Harbor, Devon Island, to Bache Peninsula, Ellesmere Island, by way of the following is- nds: Cornwallis Bathurst, Melville, mund Walker, Loughead, King Christian Ellef Ringnes, Cornwall and Axel Heiberg, This circuit involved travelling about 1,800 miles and occu- pled from March 12 to May 30. Be- sides the Inspector and constable there were two Eskimos and the sup- plies for the party were carried on two sleds drawn at the beginning by twelve dogs each. A cache of fuel oil and pemmican left by the S.S. Beothic the preceeding summer at Beechey Island was picked up and found to be in good condition. The course in the first part of the journey was almost due west: along the southern shores of Devon, Corn- wallis, Bathurst and Melville Islands. The aim was to pass along the shore ice which meant in many cases going] through a defile between the high cliffs of the island and a wall, from twenty to one hundred feet high, formed of great blocks of ice forced on the shore by the movement of the sea ice. At times the "pressure ice" was found close against the cliffs which necessitated climbing and drag- ging sleds over the hills of the in- terior. For the first two weeks tra- velling was made harder by heavy falls of soft snow. The labors of the party were increased by inability to dry their clothing, which was alter- John Franklin; and the Government cache at Winter Harbor, Melville Island, deposited by Captain Bernier of the C.G.S.

After reaching Winter Harbor, In spector Joy turned north and crossed Melville Island to Hecla and Griper Bay; he then followed a course rough- {ly northeast to Gretha Bay on the west shore of Ellesmere Island. It was his practice to.go some distance inland on the islands visited. He noted that there was coal on the sur- face of Edmund Walker Island and that the vegetation was abundant. Cornwallis Island has hills from 800 to 1,000 feet high. He found several good lookout points.on Ellef Ringnes Island.

As compared with trips in this gen- eral area in the past four seasons this one was on the whole more laborious, on account of deep, soft smow, but wild life was much more abundant. Polar bears were - very numerous; many herds of musk-ox were seen; and caribou, which winter in the re- gion, were plentiful. Lemmings, hares and foxes were freuently seen as were also seals. Wolves were al ways about but hard to shoot owing to wariness. *.

'Spying? Of course there is spying going on!" said Lord Baden-Powell to me a day or two ago as we walked across the peaceful meadows near his Hampshire home. It was almost impossible to believe that the kindly-faced, typical country squire at my side, who wore an old fishing jacket,. a cap with various colored flies entwined about it, and khaki "shorts" could be the "B-P." whom every nation feared because no secret was safe while he was about. "There'll be spies as long as there is a chane of war," he said musingly as we headed for home, and he gave a last regretful look at the river. "Would I go back to it? Yes! To- morrow if the need arose, and I could do any good. I had some exciting times--and they still believe I am at ft" He laughed. "The Russians declare that I have been spying on them, I had a man come down here the other day to ask -me when I was last there. I refused to tell him. 'That means you were there recently,' he returned. "Well . , ." The Chief Scout's eyes twinkled, "Spies mustn't tell tales 'out of school, must they?"

On the last night I heard that the Czar was com- ing. I thought this might be an ex- tra-special display, so along I went, "On my way a drosky full of officers passed me--it was the "pilot" for the Czar's drosky. Stupidly I half-turned my head as it passed, In a moment it stopped, I was lifted in, and within an hour I was in charge of a giant policeman, while they set about formu- lating a charge. It meant five years' imprisonment without the option. "I became more than ordinarily stupid for my gaoler's benefit, Then I persuaded him to fetch me some- thing for a headache. While he was gone, I opened a window, "shinned' down a drainpipe, and signed before the mast in a vessel that was leaving that night. "A railway time table was one of my most treasured possessions in those days. To the casual observer-- or the skilled agent--it looked inmo- cent enough.
