Scales Mosquito Pass,
More Than Thirteen
Thousand Feet Above
Level of the Sea.

Pass. twelve miles away. No such feat had
ever been attempted and cid mountaineers
thought 1t would be impossible for any
rgasoline wagon to make the climb. Mr..
Jay started out however, maintaining an
outward composure which belied his inward
feelings.
About seven miles from I.eadville the tim
Der line was reached. Here the AUTOMOBILE
lists faced a terrific grade, composed ap-
parently Of nothing but broken rock.
The engine worked admirably. but the
great power necessary to propel the ma
chine often sent the wheels spinning round
on the loose rock.
The automobile would stand still. while
sharp rocks would be sent flying back on
the road more than 100 feet.
Naturally the wear on the tires was ter
rife and Mr.. Jay soon found that one of
the outer castings was nearly worn through.
He had provided himself with an extra tire
for just such an emergency, however, so
went on, deciding to get all the use out Of
the worn one before It blew up.
Slowly and painfully the automobile
climbed the grade. At times the wheels
would be buried several inches in the loose
rock. About mile from tho top of the
pass the injured tire exploded.
1t took only forty-five minutes to put on
the new one, however, and the automobiles
were soon on their way once more.
A few more zigzags were made to over
come the grade and then the machine rose
slowly over the summit of the pass. the de-
lighted automobilists getting a magnificent
view of the panorama stretching on either
side of the divide.
At half-past II o'clock the enthusiasts sat
by snowbank and ate lunch.
1t was cotd, even at midday. at this ele-
walton. so Mr.. Jay and his companion soon
bundled into the car and BEGAN to cut a
swath through the broken rock on the other
side of the pass.
CHEElRED BY MINERS.
| AS the automobilists passed the London
mines the miners rushed out and gave
hearty cheers. 1t was the first automobile
that had ever penetrated the heart of the
mountains and the miners had suspended
work to watch the plucky fight against the
steep grade.
l The road down the other side of MOSQUITO
Pass is like the road encountered in making
l the ascent the automobile being forced
| through a covering of broken rocks.
| Seven miles below the summit the timber
