AMERICANS ID COMPETE
 IN SWISS SKATING EVENTS
The Winter Sports Championships at DaVos, Switzerland.

Davos, Switzerland, Dec. I0.-The festive and sportive winter season has now begun, skating being in full swing on a rink that has area of no less than 31,OOO square yards, and where four of the existing five worlds records were hung up. Americans are well represented this year and a determined effort will be made by them to capture some of the big events.
 4 heavy fall of snow has taken place-three feet in three days-and the new Schatzalp toboggan run, where the American jockey "Skeets" Martin, put up his memorable record last year, is now open, having been completely overhauled and put into thorough shape for speed. Racing will commence immediately. This run was opened only last year; it is two miles long and has a fall of over 1000 feet. There are fifty-One splen- did "corners" and two fine elbows, and it requires cool nerve and good judgment to negotiate a successful trip. One of the principal events is the German Emperor cup, which is scheduled for the fourth week in Jan uary. Mir. Lewis Vernon HarcOurt, member of the British, cabinent, it will be remembered, succeeded in win ming it last year.
 The sport of skiing has taken strong hold here. This is really a unique method of getting over the snow on wooden runners, which are from six to eight feet in length, but only as wide as the sole of the foot, the toes being curved sharply up- wards to render progress easier. In deed, this sport is likely to prove as popular this winter as mountaineering in the summer; and because of the facility with which one can now get from place to place, even over the mountains, many of the Alpine huts are to be kept open during the whites for the accommodation of ski parties. The Davos section of the Swiss Alpine society announces that in addition to the well known Parsenn- Furka hut, the Club hut on Pig Kesch will be kept open and well supplied with fuel. The kesch distrist is now pop ular among those ski-ers who are capable of taking more strenuous moutnain tours This hut afforded shelter to 261 persons during the past summer.
