The toboggan is built on this side

Canadian creation. Indeed, the idea
of resorting to the sport was i'm
ported by a few individuals who had
experienced the wild rush of the wind
as they shot with lightning speed
down the famous slides in the do
minion.
In it's usual form, the slide on this
side of the line consists of two dis
tinct inclines. The first is similar to
the t-the-chutes," only longer,
and the second is not SO steep, and
acts as a medium for expanding the
speed attained on the initial incline.
The slide at the Ardsley club is
typical of the majority in the United
States. 1t consists of single
trough, differing from the Canadian
slides, which usually have three or
four parallel slides, permitting rae

the authorities at Butte were mott

they did not seem particularly

slide wears away.
Tobogganing down the side of the
Alps is a common sport in Switzer-
land, and the greatest skill is neces-
sary to conduct the daring spirits
safely to the bottom. a guide is
necessary, one who sits in front and
steers with hands. feet and body. a
slight touch of the heel causes the
toboggan-sled to Veer, ana when this
fails, the guides can. by twitchinS
at the forward extension, or by a
quick body movement, cause the Sled
to jump from the direct course al
most before the thought flashes
through the brain of the amateur
taking his first ride.
Whether in Switzerland, Canada, or
at the American country clubs, to-
bogganing requires a keen eye, quick
muscular responses and an almost in
tuitive perception, to control the
downward rush 1t is this which sup
plies the delight of the sport--the
bird-like flight being sufficient recon-
pense for the long, hard climb back
to the starting point.

he opened it, was found to contain

Ford was held on other charges.
But two witnesses in as many cases
against him died, and the charges
were dismissed, it being practically
impossible to secure conviction
without their testimony.
Then the Kansas City authorities
were notified they could have Ford
