BUSINESS is KINK.

Fifty years ago in Harvard or yeale

courage Off a student to say that he
was going into business after he got
his sheepskin. "Of what use is a di-
ploma," fellow students would say to
him, "if you are going into business?
Why, a farmer might as well go to col
lege as a business man."
A tremendous change and evolution
have taken place in this country, es-
pecially during the last quarter, of a
century. To-day business is king.
Nothing else is more evident. 1t is the
first impression that strikes the foreign

In fact, he hears very little of anything
else 1t is all business, the develop

MARVELLOUS ENDURANCE.
A Terrible Adventure in the New zea-
land Alps,

A Terrible Adventure in the New Zea-
land Alps.
The first serious accident to a elm
Der in the New Zealand Alps occurred
this season to a member of the Scat"
fish Mountaineering Club, Mr.. R. S.
Low and is noteworthy because of the
marvellous physical endurance display
ed by him. Mr. Low in company with
two New Zealand climbers, had spent
a month exploring and climbing on the
western side of the southern Alps, and
on February 20 he left by himself to
cross to the Hermitage. at Mount Cook,
over one of the high passes. The con-
ditions were perfect, Mr. Low sue
oeeded in crossing the pass and des-
cended in safety for considerable dis
lance down the slopes of Mount de la
Beche. While descending an ice-tilled
"couloir" near the ice-fall of the Kron
Prinz Rudolf Glacier-a dangerous
place for man to descend alone-he
slipped and fell, He succeeded in driv-
ing his ice-axe into the slope and it
held, but a heavy knapsack that he
was carrying threw him off his balance
at the critical moment, with the result
that he shot down the couloir' for
some twenty or thirty feet on to some
Jagged rocks The shock was SO severe
that he rebounded on to the most
dangerous part of the 'couloir, with a
clear slide of 200 feet, leading down to
a bergschrund about twenty feet wide
and of unknown depth. His knapsack
apparently gripped against the slope,
and he was able to get a handhold on
an isolated strip Of rock jutting out
from the snow. He dragged himself on
to these rocks, with badly disolacated
ankle. a lacerated knee, and minor
wounds, and lay there for hours in a
semi-conscious state. Late in the after
noon, when the snow slopes were soft,
with the boot removed from his injur-
ed and now swollen foot, Mr. Low
started on what was the most perilous
part of the whole descent Unable to
ascend to get his ice axe, he used his
left knee on the slope and kicked steps
in the snow with his right foot In
this way he made two traverses down
the slope, and crossed two snow bridges
and the gergschrund at the foot of the
'couloir." He then crawled to a piece
of light moraine on the lower portion Of
the glacier. Here he passed the first
night, endeavoring to stanch the bleed
ing, and to cover his wounds with adj
hesive plaster.
On the following day (Thursday) he
decided to make for the Bivouac Rock,
at the foot of Mount de la Beche. This
rock, some two miles distant, had been
used in the early days by the pioneer
climbers, and gave promise Of moer-
ate amount of shelter. He expected to
reach it before nightfall Tying a thirty

GRANT STREET QUESTION UP.

EARNESTLY Discussed Again Before
Street Committee Last Night.
The aldermanio committee on streets
held meeting at city hall last even
ing. A petition for a bridge over the
railroad tracks on Grant street and the
extension of the street to Morris street
was warmly discussed. Alderman
Burke was the first to appear in favor
and urged its necessity. The same po-
sition was maintained by Charles R.
Newman of 1O7 Portsea street, ]. w
Meehan of 1888 Kimberly avenue pre-
sented to the board a statement from
Father Early of ST. Peters R. G.
church, which said that upwards of 400
people had to go over the dangerous
railroad crossing on Grant street Sun
days in reaching his church. The dan
ger which these people incurred was
urged as a strong reason for the build
ing of a bridge over the tracks.
John Borden stated to the committee
that he favored the petition for the
sake of the school children who would
have to cross there hereafter in going
TO the new Kimberly avenue school. He
said the people Of that section wanted
the Improvement very much.
Michael ]. Garvin was the only OPP
ponent of the petition. He admitted
the advisa.bility of the work but feared
that he might be assessed for benefits.
This petition has been before the
bard of aldermen but was turned down.
A street at this point would be a
great advantage because people persist
on going across the railroad tracks in
stead of going around by Plymouth
street to Lamberton street. The COM
mittee seems to be very shy at the
question because they think 1t would
entail an expense to make the i'm
provement.
A. Burdette Hughes appeared in fav-
or of the petition asking for three new
I streets in the Fifteenth ward. One of
the proposed streets would run from
Townsend avenue across the property
of the petitioner and the other two
! from Burweu street across the same
property.

lay on his back on the snow and used
his hands and his sound foot to propel
himself to the rope limit. Having SO

him and then proceed as before. This
mode of progression was fairly salts
factory so long as the smooth going
lasted, but on reaching the hummocky
ice and the rough moraine lower down
the glacier he was forced to crawl on
his hands and knees. Towards even
ing he crawled to the lee side of the
biggest rock he could find. Next day
(Friday) 1t rained and hailed, and fin
ally showed to depth of two feet,
making it impossible for him to move.
On the Saturday however, he started
off again and accomplished the most
marvellous performance of crawling
on his hands and knees through newly
fallen snow over the rough and broken
surface of the moraine- covered glacier,
between erevasses and over ice bridges,
thence for 300 feet up the steep face of
the lateral moraine, and finally down a
ridge of broken loose rocks to the
Bivouac. Here he remained for six days
His dislocated ankle was much swol-
len and very painful, and the skin and
flesh were considerably worn from his
knees. Each day he became weaker for
want Of food, as the one days food that
he carried had to last him ten days. At
last he had reduced himself to two,
pinches of coca day, Fortunately
there were q few pieces of short board
at the Bivouac, and out Of these he
improvised crutch, SO that he was
able to get about sufficiently to obtain
water by melting snow on the rocks.
1t was not till the Friday that the
people at the Hermitage knew that Mr.
Low was missing. On the west coast
a search party was Immediately organ
ized and two young New Zealand AL
pine guides, Jack Clarke and Peter
Graham, at once set out, and arrived
at the De la Beche bivouac at 4 A. M.
on Saturday, March 3. There they
found Mr.. Low alive but in a very
weak condition They at once released
a carrier pigeon they had brought with
them, with a brief message to the
manager at the Hermitage for medical
aid. In case of any misadventure to
the pigeon, GUIDE Crarke dispatched a
man to the Hermitage with the news.
On the Monday, Mr.. Low was carried
down to the Ball Glacier hut. This was
a terribly arduous undertaking, as the
Tasman at this point is very much
crevassed and broken up into large hui
mmocks, while, lower down, the Hoch-
stetter and Ball Glaciers and some en-
orrnous moraines had to be crossed.
Next day (Tuesday) the guides impro-
vised a comfortable couch with a sheet
of galvanized iron, a mattress and
some pillows, and, this beng placed on
a stout packhorse, Mr.. Low was con-
veyed across the Hooker River for
twelve miles to the coach road. Mr..
Low, who is loud in his praises of the
splendid work Of the guides and others
who has assisted in his rescue, is SLOW
ly progressing towards recovery.-New

MoHAIR AND MOTORING.

1t cannot be. said that all motorists
present a very elegant sight when on
the road, for what with goggles and a
covered headgear, together with dust
laden coats, jackets, etc, the objects
are not such as to call forth the admir-
alton Of the majority. Still that which
does cause that most annoyance is UNI
doubtedly the clouds of dust which
have to be encountered, dust caused
by wind, and also the clouds raised by
the rapid flight of the car along the
roads. Everyone will see that to mini
mize these drawbacks is to increase the
pleasure of motoring, it also stimuli
ates the industry of motor-car build
ing. Those who have given the ex-
perience fair trial are convinced Of
the fact that mohair is the material
which is going to revolutionize the out
side appearance of the motorist, and in
