Josef Land), where, ant 'ber. dezvous with the Malygin, she proved her ability, when compelled to do so, to alight on the water: so that her crew could take to the boats, she successfully reached that least known of all archipelagoes, Northland, which lies in the Arctic Ocean beyond the most northerly point of the Asiatic Continent, Cape Tehelyushkin.
Mysterious Coast: Hitherto this archipelago had only been approached from the, east, and no map has any authority for the western coastline which it attributes to it. It remains to be known how much of this mysterious const has now been recorded, since the eager eyes of Professor Samoile witch were constantly thwarted by log on July 38.
This fog made it impossible to find the camp of Professor Ushakov, who is on Northland at the moment at the head of a small expedition which is to winter there and was impatiently awaiting various small luxuries and news from the outside world which were to be thrown down.

An appropriately large if rather subdued crowd of 100,000 Berliners assembled in the course of the after- acon at the Tempelhof nerodrome to welcome the Graf Zeppelin, which but thirty hours proviously had been flying over Arctic sens. The Graf Zeppelin has become, as Dr. Eckener said this evening in bis. speech on landing, a symbol for Germany's ascent in these gloomy timen."
After the Zeppelin had sunk » slowly to earth to the strains of the National Anthem, Dr. Eekéner and his fellow explorers were welcomed by Dr. Sahm, the Oberburgomeister. of Berlin. Dr. Eckoner, replying to the welcome, said that they had flown under skies as serene and as blue as those over the Mediter rangan, and had not experienced an anxioux moment. After an hour the Graf Zeppelin rose from 'the acro- drome and continued its flight to Friedrichshafen.
