An exploring party under the auspices of the Geographical Society of the Academy of Natural Sciences of the University of Pennsylvania is preparing to make an expedition to Labrador. Mr. Hite, who is connected with the Zoological Department of the university, and who was naturalist on the Peary Relief Expedition is the leader, and Dr. Wetheril is second in command. The main object of the expedition is to see and locate the Grand Falls of Labrador, which are said to be the largest in the world, and which only four white men are known to have visited. Another object of the trip is to gather collections of the fauna and flora of Labrador, about which little is definitely known, for the interior of this country is the largest unexplored tract of land in America. The expedition will leave New York in the latter part of June, to return by the first of October. The party will be composed in the main of Pennsylvania students.
