GREENLAND ALWAYS ON MOVE
Observations Made by Danish Scientist
Prove That Continent Is Pro
grossing Westward.
It was not necessary to wait until
the North polo had been discovered to
learn that the location of the poles Is
constantly subject to change. It shifts
about considerably, never wandering
far at a time, but this wobble has been
watehed f?>r years by the scientists of
the world, and recently there has. been
more learned about the erratic conduct
of the North pole than ever before,
through the expedition of a Danish
scientist. Doctor Jansen. He has
passed many months In making Infinite

and has come to the conclusion that
the movement of the pole Is more than
a wobble? It Is a very Well-defined and
constant movement, nnd incidental to
this tbe whofe of (he Greenland con

of 20 yards a year. These discoveries
seem to Indicate conclusively that the

some more or less remote day become

Crossing the 8ahara.
A wireless message received here
from the Citroen caterpillar motor-car
expedition which Is crossing the Sa
hara, states that after two days' rest
the party left Insalah at dawn on
December 24, and by December 28,
when (he message was sent, had
reached the foothills of the Hoggar
mountain district. The next stage will
be the most difficult of all, the passage
of the Tanezruft, or "region of thirst,"
says a Purls dlspntch to .the London
TMmes.
From Insalah the cars passed
through great winds. The tracks of
caravans which were followed by the
party were marked here and there by
the dead bodies of camels. After this,
desert of sand came n desert of rocks.
The cars went steadily without change
of speed over this rough country* and
succeeded In traveling 120 miles a day.
On the night following Christmas
day the expedition camped In the last
hills of the Muydir. on the edge of the
Tloggar range. On Boxing day the
FToggnr district Itself was entered.

There are few happening that
strike us delectable more liumuu be*
ings thun the finding of buried or
sunken ''treasure." The word itself
has its romantic as well as its mate
rial charm, for its associations are
those of the higfh adventure in which
we all dream of participating, how-. I
evur unlikely to do so in real life, and
then there is the appeal to the inerad
icable desire of us all, confessed or
unoonfessed, to get something, or
rather a lot, for nothing. Treasure
hunters have done that' before now.
"Treasure", to be the real thiny,
might be gold, preferably doubloons
or pieces of eight, but in any form it
will do, as is shown by the prolonged
and costly efforts that have been
made to recover the specie that went
down with the Laurentic off the Irish
?oast when the Germans, after what
was then their pretty habit, sank her
in lUi8. l)uring most of the years
since then the work of recovery has
been going on as season and weather
reluctantly served. As work it was
hard and dangerous.
Men to do it, however, h*\VL. not
failed, even though the job Involved
the occasional fightjng of the big
sharks known as dogfish. At any rate
so we are told, and it is easy enough
Whej) reading about treasure hunting
to forget that the reputation of tho
dogfish for ferocity is still mostly to
be made. What tries harder even the
best intent ioned credulity is the ac
count of an electrical instrument that
swings the hand on its dial one way
when near gold or silver and in the
opposite direction when it approaches
baser metals like steel or copper.
But the treasure ? millions and mil
lions of it? has been found and sal
vaged amid perils and difficulties cer
tainly great enough and by devices
that certainly must have been ingen
ious.
