ELEVATOR DROPS FIFTY
FEET TO TEST CUSHIONS
Eggs and Glass Make Quick
Trip Without Injury.

A successful test was made At noon
today Of the safety air cushion recently
placed in an elevator shaft at the Patent
Ofice. The elevator car, in which were
numerous fTau articles, vas dropped
afty feet. and no injury resulted 10 the
car and little, II any. to its contents
The test was made in the presence Of
Chief Clerk Dawson. OF the Interior De-
partment, several other officers Of the
and by F. T ElIithorpe, president Of the
elevator company which installed the
machinery.
IN the car we're about two dozen cleo
trio light globes, a half dozen eggs and
a monkey. The noise made by the fall
was terrific, and the dust and trash
about the shaft rose as If a cyclone had
arrived The monkey, which was in a
cage, was badly frightened. but was not
hurt None of the globes were broken
and only one egg was cracked.
The idea for the use OF the safety air
cushion in elevator shafts - TO prevent
loss Of life should the mechanical de
vices Of the elevator break or fail In
the shaft at the Patent Office the cush-
ion is built from the basement 10 the
first floor. Its framework is OF iron.
Compressed air is the means used to
break the fail Of the car, and IN this
I case n pressure OF seven pounds to the
square inch was secured. The bottom
Of the car Is trimmed with rubber 70

shaft in a plunge.
