Kar stens. the "Seventy-mile Kid"; Robert G. Tatum, of the Nenana mission; and Walter Harper, the archdeacon's half' breed attendant, leaves Fairbanks this morning at ten o'clock. The supplies I are to be freighted to the base of the big mountain with the aid of dog teams. The ascent will be made from the northeast iuce, by the head of Mul drow glacier and the adjacent ridge, and the archdeacon hopes to be on the top of the mountain by May 1, if weath er conditions will permit the ascent. The expedition has no financial pur pose whatever, and is simply planned to gratify a personal desire and wish of nine years standing on the part of Archdeacon Stuck to climb the great peak. The scientific observations will be turned over to geographers with the hope that they may be of some bene fit. The members or the party nope to be able to start back on the first wa ter and plan to float down the Kan tishna to the Tanana during the month of May. The trip to the big mountain has been the desire of Archdeacon Stuck ever since he came to Alaska in lf>04. He has had considerable experience in mountain climbing in other countries. He has used his ice pick in the Alps, the Canadian Rockies and the Colorado Rockies, and is thoroughly conversant with exploring work among snow, ice ind crevasses, so the present under taking present no dangers to him.?
