or the Pyrenees, than the Carbon river
glacier and the great Puyallup gla-
ciers; indeed, the ice of the latter is
unusually pure and the crevasses un-
usually fine. The combination of ice
scenery with woodland scenery of the
grandest type is to be found nowhere
in the old world, unless it be in the
Himalayas, and, so far as we know,
nowhere else on the American conti-
nent."
There are several routes to the sum-
nit, but the only one that has ever
proved practical is known as the Para
disc valley route. All of the more in
teresting features of the great noun
tain and the park that surrounds it can
be seen from this road and it will
probably be the only one used this
summer.
The start under present arrange
ments is made by stage from Tacoma.
For two days the prospective mountain
climber travels rapidly over a good
road through one of the Washington
forests of gigantic trees to Longmire
Springs. Timber line is then but six
miles away, over a plain trail. The
distance can be covered by pack horses
or by walking.
Paradise Park, which is a place of
beauty beyond description. has been
named by unframed mountain climb
ers. Here muscles are hardened by
climbing over the snow fields and gla-
ciers and one becomes generally ac-
customed to the high altitude. Here
also guides are to be obtained, for it is
not safe to attempt the ascent without
an experienced escort. That strang-
ers have gone to the top of the noun
tain and returned in safety is no proof
that others can do the same. The ele-
ments at this high altitude are very
uncertain and storm is likely to blow
up at any time. Then the danger is
very great for even those who know
the mountain thoroughly.
To any one except a hardy noun
taineer the ascent requires more than
ordinary strength. This Is especially
true in the case of women, and none of
the gentler sex should attempt the
journey without at least a months
training by taking long walks until
twenty miles or more can be covered
without fatigue.
From Paradise Park the climb COM
mences. Two full days are usually re-
quired for the ascent, although 1t has
been made by small parties in much
less time. Camp should be broken
very early in the morning. and with the

necessary baggage strapped on pack
animals the journey is slowly contin-
ued until Camp Muir is reached.
The night is spent at this point, and
a second start is made at 4 a. m. on
the following day, in order to pass
Gibraltar Rock before the sun begins
to loosen rocks on the side of the
mountain. The route continues past a
spur which divides the Nisqually and
Cowlitz glaciers, and on to the famous
rock, which has proven stumbling
block to SO many. The terrors of pass
ing this butte causes the nerves of the
novice to tingle. He is ready to be
frightened to death by the first real or
imaginary danger, and unless securely
roped to competent guides is likely to
fall to his death.

worst weather of an unusually bitter
winter. She was caught by the ice
floes and held helpless. Keen winds
ragged about her and the rigging froze.
The fires were put out to husband coal,
and every one on board suffered from
cold. Her rs sailors were clothed
only for an ordinary winter passage in
the North Atlantic. They did not know
when they would be released or wheth-
er they might not be driven from a shin
crushed like an eggshell to wander
over the shifting foe to their death.
There are $4,000 square miles of the
Gulf of st. Lawrence. The Gaspesia
saw good deal of drifting to and fro
with the wind and current. Deliver
ance came when the famous sealing
steamer Kite sgnaled the Gaspesia and
went to her assistance. The Kite likes
ice; she was built to resist it, and car
ries dynamite to blast her way through
1t. BY several days hard work her
crew opened way for the Gaspesia,
and she reached st. Johns nearly three
months out. SAe was almost a wreck,
and the crew and passengers were quite
exhausted 1t may be shorter by the
new route, but the chances are that
ordinary travellers will prefer the old,
although Nansen might enjoy the trip
as practice.

months.
Washington's National Park is un-
doubtedly the peer of the famous Vel
lowstone and other parks in this coun-
try. In fact, comparison is impossible
as there are no points OF similarity
between Yellowstone and Rainier. Yel-
lowstone is simply a grand beauty spot
with a few hot-water fountains when
compared with Rainier, its majestic
scenery and boundless attractions for
lovers of nature.
Mount Rainier must be named with
Fugiyama, st. Elias, Ararat and Blanc.
1t is more like the mighty mountain
OF sunny Japan than the supreme peak
of the snowy Alps. Unlike Mount
Blanc, it is not merely the dominant
peak of 2 chain of snow mountains; it
is the only peak in view for hundreds
of miles. Mount st. Helens and Mount
Adams are similarly isolated and are
many miles away to the south. Rainier
rises from 1000 to 5000 feet above the
surrounding mountains in majestic
loneliness. 1t springs out of valley
Of wondrous beauty II, 1000 feet in seven
miles. Eminent scientists and noun
tain climbers the world over are ready
to bear witness to it's grandeur. The
first view of the mountain to the new
conner is awe inspiring. But it's beauty
is not confined to the huge peak alone
There are acres of meadow land run
ming clear up to the snow line-verita-
BILE flower banks-and in the summer
season gorgeous with a brilliancy that
can scarcely be described.
There are wonderful glaciers, SCARED
with grim crevices of unknown depth
These are bordered with evergreen for
ests, and they present a spectacle Of
wild beauty that is not equaled else
where in the world. On the summit
of the mountain is the crater of an ex-
tinct volcano, out of which jets of
steam and boiling water are continual
y spouting, giving evidence of terrible
and unknown things in the depths of
the mighty pile of rock and snow.
There are man.. streams full of ice
water dashing over rocks and preci-
pices into waterfalls and then finding
their way down to the low lands until
they become lost in the rivers that
empty into Puget Sound.
The greatest on the list of superla-
tive things that the mountain park
affords, however, is the magnificent
view from the summit. This summit
consists of three peaks, the central and
highest being Crater Peak. To the
south is Peak Success and to the north

The former popular fear Of arsenical
wall paper appears to have quite sub
sided. However, several cases of al
legged poisoning by arsenical wall pa
pers having occurred in Ithaca, DR.. e.
M. Chamot. of the chemical depart
ment of Cornell university, undertook
a series of analyses of wall papers of
various colors and patterns, as a result
of which he is said to have asserted
that nearly all wall papers sold at the
present time contain arsenic, some of
them in large quantities.

DUNKHORST A MAMMOTH.
Record of the Boxer Who VIII Fight
at Athens.


Since the days when Joe sIcAuliffe
came out OF the west to win fame in
the prize ring there never was a boxer
Of note who possessed the same gen.
erous proportions claimed by Ed
Dunkhorst. who meets Joe Butler at
Athens tomorrow evening. Dunk
horst is six feet high, and weighs, in
condition, 225 pounds. He has been
nicknamed the "Mastodon," and it is
we'll earned. But Dunkhorst is differ
ent from most of the big fellows in
that he Is fast as feather-weight
Those who witnessed his terrific fight
with Peter Maher at the Arena need
no further veriflcation of that state
ment. Fast as Maher was, Dunkhorst
was equally so. and, although Maher
won, he did not get off scot free by
any means. While a comparatively
newcomer in the ring, Dunkhorst's
dozen battles have already demon
strated the possibilities OF his huge
frame, when thoroughly seasoned. One
popularity Of Dunkhorst's is that he
seems to be immune from the blows
soporific, which so many boxers sue
cumb to. Up to the present time he
has never been knocked out, and it
looks as though he never will be. AL
though he was in no condition for a
contest when he met Maher at the
Arena, and the Irish champion landed
again and again on his jaw the pum-
melting he received did not seem to af-

turedly, and Maher, who always be-
lieved his good right hand was invin-
chile, was dumfounded Dunkhorst
has declared that had he been in
shape he would have beaten Maher
that night, and many good judges
agree with him. When Gus Rubin
was at his best and Dunkhorst only a

rounds to win from the Syracuse man
at the Greater New York Athletic club
The experience he gained there did
Dunkhorst good. for he went right up
to Toronto and beat Charley Strong

bout in the fourth round. Frank
Childs, the colored giant, met Dunk"
at Detroit for eight rounds, and the

During the past few months the Bal
timore and Ohio Road has materially
extended the runs of the passenger To-
comotives on through trains. Formerly
engines were changed on an average
every 100 or $50 miles. 1t was thought
that the mountain grades of the Balti-
more and Ohio Rail Road would pre-
vent an extension of the runs. How
ever, the experiment was made. 1t has
proved successful and reduced the
number of locomotives formerly re-
quired by "a, which can be used in
other branches of the service and save
the purchase of more motive power.
Under the new plan, locomotives are
double crewed and make from 1000 to
5000 miles month. as against $500 to
1000 under the former method.

A REMARKABLE TRIP
OF an Ocean Liner in Trying New
Route.

Cf an ocean Liner In Trying New
Route.
The steamer Gaspesia, which was first
to attempt to reach London by the new
route via the Gulf of st. Lawrence and
Milford Haven, Wales, had three
months of such experience as happily
but seldom falls to the lot of an ocean
liner. The dream of a certain group
of capitalists is over, for although the
distance is appreciably less by the way
proposed, the fate of the ship which
came limping back into port ten weeks
after every one had given her up will
cast damper upon all future efforts
The Gaspesia left Milford Haven on
Jan. IL; she made the south coast of
Newfoundland on the 10th, and entered
the gulf on the goth. She should have
reached Paspebiac in one day. The
trip actually took six. 1t was Feb. Z

THE MAKING OF A MENU.

Things to Consider If 1t Is to Result
Successfully
The planning of menus is one Of the
most exacting duties of hostess who
desires to make or keep a reputation
as a successful entertainer. "Pot luck"
and take us as you find us" are all
well enough up to certain point; but
there are occasions that demand
carefully thought-out arrangement OF
a dinner, and when anything less
would be discourtesy to ones guests,
In making up a menu the season

city markets, that pre-supposes a fat.
ter pocketbook than most planning
housewives possess. Within a short
time, however, the best of everything
will be comparatively cheap, and SC
much will be in season that one need
not stop at anything on that account
A stumbling block that remains
through all seasons are the limitations
of ones cook. If you are not the pos.
SCISSOR of q skilled chef it is of no use
to expect high-art cooking and elabo-
rately concocted dishes. Plan your
menu within the range of your cooks
capabilities.
1t may be impossible to please all
ones guests, but it will be well to have
those things on the menu that will
appeal to the greatest number. A
hostess who has OWNED the idiosyn-
cracies of her guests and Is able to
humor them Is sure of success. One
of the chief attributes of success is the
ability to give personal or distinctive
note to ones dinner, something by
which your dinner may be jifferenti-
ated from every one else and remem-
bered with especial pleasure. The
method of serving the character OF
some especial dish, the decorations,
any one of dozen things may bring
this about under the management Of
clever and ingenious woman.

Mount Rainier Now Stands as the Senti-
mel of the Most Beautiful Park.

Liberty Cap. The billowing tops of
successive mountain ranges stretch off
in every direction. Below, to the east
and south, lie the plains of Eastern
Washington and the Columbia river
valley, a valley that is known at least
by reputation to every person in the
country.
To the west and north are the tim
ber covered foothills of the Cascades
and the Olympic mountains, the great
coast range. Beyond these light blue
haze tells where the old Pacific rolls.
Puget Sound lies between like scroll
of molten silver in its emerald setting
Of green forests of fir and cedar. In
several directions, looking like tiny
threads of white, the Puyallup, Carbon,
Nisqually and Cowlitz rivers can be
seen racing on to mingle their waters
with the salt waves of the sound. Their
glacier sources shine like diamonds
when the sun is bright.
In 1888 Professor Zittel,a well-known
German geologist, and Professor James
Bryce, member of parliament, and au-
thor of the American Common
wealth, made a report on the scenery
of Mount Rainier. Among other things
they said:
"The scenery Of Mount Rainier is of
