Convincing conclusions can not help, but impress the reader. , "Tho rhantom of the 'Polos" (Walter S.' ItilekVy Company, publishers. New WILLIAM HEKD. Tork) Is founded upon the theory that the earth is hollow, with openings at the northern and southern extremities. The old complaint of the unsatisfy ing explanation of books Is also ex pressed by the author. "School books teach that the earth is round and flat tened at the poles," but do not teli us why. . He opens our eyes with this belief that the earth Is hollow and HOW THE MA3NTTC NEEDLE WORRB - AOAIN.

Reference-to the "What of the compass?" some In- j f0gs so" frequently referred to by the yestigating mind will ask. The author explorer is also made by Hall. "The .' replies: "As soon as the curve begins j 0pn water appeared as a dark spot on the compass wilt try to follow north a wt,te field. Fifteen minutes after- atfd will rise to the glass at the tap or as far aa adjustment permits. On the explanation that tha earth is hollow . the needle worked Just aatit-aboold have. Had it worked differently it wonjd have been, wrong." What la a Water Skyf " Every arctic explorer Is much Inter ested in this phenomenon. As the an- ' thoc writes, "It is not a-whim, but a fact, and northern explorers depend upon it as absolutely reliable." Alao: "Xansen and bis companion -Johahaon t Invariably deiended upon the appear-' -;,aace ,of the sky to determine the con . dltlon of the water or Ice on the earttf ahead. They always found land. Ice .and water. Just as the sky Indicated : they shoufd." The author declares that " "the same sort of sky is seen in the-antarctlo-reglons-as In the arctie,' and - "the. condition of the surface In- that . eountry la reflected In the sky so accu , rateJy :tiat any ne can, understand -jt," and adds, "Would it not reflect a fire In . the interior of the. earth as "eorrectly, "' and thus account for an aurora ?' Bernacchi comj)ared the aurora to a ' great searchlight directed toward the " earth from the krhs of Infinity.' ' The 'meteors 'also form a theme for; discussion which Mr. Reed takes up.i The belief that they are detached from j atarsjiliiuc-ts or couiets and sent saii- u t,,,nm 1 an Tnlntetl. fool- lUg Uliuutu "t-'i-V 'T f ' --- I lsh tbeorj with him. They are nothing more or leas, he declares, "than rocks . fmm th earth bv an ex- I plodlng volcano. - All meteors that have j struck the earth come out of the earth ) internally or externally. . When an-1 'alyzed Uiey show no ingredients that , are not found on earth." 1 Roeu m ..d on ice. ' As arctic explorers have often won- , dered why rock, gravel and sand are found imbedded in bergs and floes, the author proceeds to enlighten then, with his opinion, one resulting from careful Investigation and common sense.

Thef we're fhrowu info the nll-W some explosion "and fell ; on the Ix-rg while It'wus forming."' The author now declares that they Could only "have-tfoine f roni tlw interior of ,; the, earth.,, Hall tells of un old floe , more than twenty feet thick that when grounded noar the Polaris broke Into many jiliws and when turning over exposed ninsslvc rocks Imbedded In the Ice." . -. I)un JVenr the Pole. The dust in Km- polar regions has often Imhhi a soiiri-e of groat Irritation , to each explorer. It falls on. the ships in pi-eat tjiuuititit-s, they say, and colors tin- snow In many places black. Nan son wanted to go borne on account of it. The majority of explorers believe that It Is without doubt dust from a i stray cornet. When analyzed it con j tains carbon and iron, supposed to cjnie from some exploding volcano. "Comets only anjiear," sjys the nil- j tlior, "once In several years. The dust I falls densely and continuously. Could I tho comets distribute enough dtwt to I last. siiy. ten or twenty years? The . I (ixpliiniit! n is nonsensical, the theory ! ridiculous. The ilust comes from the earth, not far from where It la found. ; When it is understood that the earth is hollow and the dust conies from the eruption of a volcano in the Ulterior the puzzle is clearly explained." Open Water. Explorers have fn- juently been turn-. ed back by open water near the poles and instances cited where they came ' near being carried out to sea and lost. The author wishes to present to the reader that the. rctlt ocean Is an open-. """"-"" ' ' IN tA8SINO INTO TUB INTERIOB EARTH 18 HOLLOW. ..... - - .
