Myron Il. Trapp made u fortune in Gle
vators, and has long since retired from
active work. On Broadway, in one of
the big office buildings, met him, and
the talk naturally drifted toward the sub
ject upon which he loves to descant.
Il have just been having a long con-
sultation with several architects, build
ers and contractors" said lie, ''about the
ACCESSIBILITY of having some legislation
passed which would limit the speed of
passenger elevators. The fact is that in
many Of the big office buildings in New
York, as well as in other cities, com
plants are coming quick and often about
what is called the terribly dangerous
speed with which the elevators are run.
A few years ago 200 feet minute was
considered very rapid travelling up or
down on the elevator in building. This
was before the twelve to fifteen story
structures became the fashion in the
large cities. With their advent the archi-
tects We'd with each other in attempts to
arrange things that the elevators could
be run at almost any desirable speed,
and finally the competition of builders
and experts drove the speed onward until
it in some cases reached 500 feet min
ute.
Everything considered, however,
there is not much actual danger in a
modern swiftly running elevator. The
elevators in this country carry more pas
sengers every day than the railroads do,
yet you very seldom hear of a serious ac-
cident on ony first class elevator. The
degree of safety attained upon them these
late days is really something marvellous.
What the public ought to know is this
Whenever anything happens to an ele-
vator upon which passengers are being
carried and the machinery seems to be
deranged, never try to get off. Keep
cool and remain still until the car reaches
the end Of it's journey. Then it will stop
of its own accord. New York Star.

Strict Ecnnonny.

Science brings about economy, and in
these days of varied manufactures, and
perfect facilities for carrying them on,
there is very little waste material in any
branch of trade. The Sunday Call in de-
scribing the slaughter of cattle at New

is lost save its dying breath.
Nothing is wasted from the tip of the
tongue to the brush on the end of the
tail. The blood is caught and sold to
make albumen for sugar refineries and
other manufactures. or to form a cheap
substitute for the hard rubber and other

The shinbones make the finest of bone
