A Chauffeur Says They Must
Either Crawl or Sprint.
LEGAL SPEED LIMIT NOT NEEDED
He Insists That the Machines Are
Easily Controlled and Not
Dangerous.

Chauffeurs and automobile dealers of
Minneapolis are not pleased with the ac-
tion taken by the council of Minnetonka
Beach in restricting the speed of auto
tomobiles to eight miles an hour.
While some owners of autos say that few
machines exceed speed of seven or eight
miles on the business Streets, others de-
clare that ten or even twelve miles can
be maintained with perfect safety. L.
H. Fawkes said to-day in discussing this
point: 80 %' - =
The fact that accidents are seldom, or never
caused by automobiles in Minneapolis shows
how groundless is all this talk about reck-
less driving. I suppose that most autos are
driven at rate Of about ten or twelve miles
an hour about the business district, but with
chauffeur Of ordinary experience and abil-
tty there Is no danger whatever to the public
In that rate of speed. AS matter of fact,
few machines can get below ten miles with
out gearing down to slow speed; which is
about three or four miles, just an ordinary
walking pace When you get over that rate
you must gear up to high speed and then
throttle down the machine. Even then you
can go no slower than ten or twelve miles.
There is no intermediate rate for the major
ity of autos. ~
The public generally has no idea what per-
feet control chauffeur has over his ma
chine. Travelling at ten miles an hour, any
feet, and going at twenty miles I can easily
stop my machine in fifteen feat. Now you
can see how much danger Of accident there
is with machine SO easily handled as that.
I think the action Of the village council at
Minnetonka Beach is unreasonable. Other
vehicles, especially bicycles, are allowed to
maintain much higher rate than that, and
1 see no reason why the authorities should
discriminate against automobiles. Motor eye
lists can justly be criticized for reckless rid
cutlery against the auto.
In Chicago no man is allowed to drive
an auto unless he has passed an ex-
ANNA ton upon his ability to handle a
machine efficiently and has secured a
chauffeurs badge. Mr.. FaWkes said IN
response to question that he thought
such requirement. was quite necessary
in Minneapolis. Said he: 49,
Any man or ordinary intelligence can learn
to handle gasolene rig in two hours. and
after that he can drive with perfect safety.
A steam rid ig more complicated, and no one
should attempt to drive without taking
at least ten lessons. You will find, however,
that Minneapolis chauffeurs are quite efficient,
and a driver who does not know how to
handle his rig we'll is practically never seen
on the business streets.
wv, E. Wheeler took issue with Mr..
Fawkes, declaring that few automobiles
exceeded g. speed Of seven or eight miles
in the business district Of the city. He
admitted that few cases OF reckless
driving might be cited, but held that
the great majoritN of cheuffeurs were
careful and prudent. =.

SAFE THRESHER BOILERS
Boiler Inspector Johnston VIII Try
to Decrease Accidents.

State Boiler Inspector R. H. Johnston
is going after owners of threshing out
fits hard this season in an effort to reduce
the number of boiler explosions. Every
year there are disasters in the threshing
field due to gross carelessness on the
part of engineers, and considering the
condition in which he finds so many en-
gines the wonder with him is that there
are not many more accidents.

A New Forest Ranger.

Frank $. Morgan of Jackson, Ohio arrived in Prescott on Thursday evening to take a position as forest ranger. Mir. Morgan has been city editor of the Jackson Sun for some time, but failing health induced him to accept the above position. On his departure from his home the Sun gave him the following compli- mentary notice:
 For a year past he has been the shining light of the Sun staff. He is a young man of ability and is the enemy of no one. Genial, kind and generous he is loved and respected by this community in which he was reared. His going from among us is a source of regret, yet he goes with the hearty good will of everybody and their fervent hope for his success in every way possible. The people among whom his future lot is cast will find Mir. Morgan worthy of their confidence and a gentleman in every respect. The Sun takes this occasion to acknowledge the valuable services MT. Morgan has rendered to it, and without flattery can say he Is news paper man of much ability, and we hope he may yet be offered an op- portunity to De put to a future test on that line"

OFF FOR BUFFALO. A Stranger Starts on a Bicycle Yesterday by Rail to the
 Above City.

A man whose name could not be learned left the Prescott depot Thurs day afternoon at 2:30 o'clock for a trip to Buffalo, New York. Before leaving he purchased new bicycle, with a railroad attachment to it, from B. Hilton, on which he intends to make the trip. He expected to reach Ash Fork last evening, and es- timated that he could average from 80 to 100 miles per day on the trip. While he was an expert wheelmen, it was his first experience on railroad bicycling, but after a few short trial trips in the yards he started down the road towards Whipple at gait of fifteen or twenty miles an hour.
 While to many this railroad at tachment to a bicycle is not new, there are many probably who never saw wheel rigged up for railroad travel. It is very simple device, consisting of a wheel from four to six inches in diameter, with hanges on both sides, and just wide enough to fit the rail. Three rods, connected with this wheel, extend to the bicycle and are clamped on it in the shape of a tripod, which steadies the wheel. The wheels of the bicycle run on one rail, the rods being adjusted to it and the little wheel so that the latter holds it in place and prevents its jumping the track. Wheels of this kind have been in use by few wheel men here for some time, who make trips into the country as occasion re- quires. One man reports having made the trip from Prescott to Mayer on one of these machines in an hour and forty minutes.

THE COLUMBIA GLACIER.
One of the Grandest Glaciers in Alaska Discovered by the Hartman
 Party m 1899.

The beautiful glacier situated in Glacier bay, just outside the Valdez narrows, to which excursions will be run this summer from this place, is one of the grandest and most beauti- ful glaciers in Alaska, rivaling in grandeur the famous Muir glacier of southeastern Alaska. It was discov- cred by the Hartman party in June, 1899, and named the Columbia glacier ID honor of Columbia college, of New York city.
 Columbia glacier is four and half miles wide and over 500 feet high. The roar from the hundreds of water falls and the constant breaking of of immense bodies of ice makes noise that can be heard for ten miles dis distant,
 A few miles beyond the Columbia glacier is another beautiful glacier, also discovered by the Hartman party and named by them the Harri- man glacier in honor of MT. Harri- man. The latter glacier is located on an arm of the sea that was also discovered by the Hartman party. This body of water extends forty miles inland but does not appear on any of the maps or charts of the country-Valdez, Alaska, Prospector.
