there was no furore or general upris-

CLIMB FULL OF PERIL
Daring Attempt to Be Made to
Scale Mount Pinnacle.
VERY HARD PEAK TO ASCEND.

Two Expert Climbers Must Wrissls
Through Marrow Crack High Up On
Mountain Side to Reach the Top,
Fighting Death For 400 Feet.
Two men with iron nerves and mus.
cles are planning an attempt this sum.
mer to scale the most difficult noun
tain peak In the western hemisphere.
1t is Mount Pinnacle Of the Canadian
Rockies, tower of granite 1000 feet
high, to rvNch the top Of which one
must wriggle and worm his way up
through narrow crevice 800 feet high.
The relaxation of a muscle, the loss of
nerve for an instant. means a plunge
to the granite powders thousand feet
below.
No white man on this continent ever
before attempted such perilous
mountain ascent, but the daring spirits
who contemplate spending their vaca
tion thus are confident they will sue
coed; that they will reach the topmost
point and there sweep the horizon with
their vision as the sole reward for the
risk of being dashed to pulp on the
mountain crags, says the st. Louis
Dispatch. Those who are to at
tempt Mount Pinnacle are Arthur O.
Wheeler, president Of the Canadian Al
pine club and head of the Canadian
Typographical survey, and Benjamin s.
Comstock, an American who climbs
mountains because he loves to. Mr.
Comstock is former st. Louisian.
Persons who have spent their lives
on the prairies Of the middle west and
southwest have little conception Of
what mountain climbing means. There
is no sport that requires so steady a
nerve, such powerful muscles, such In
difference to danger. An automobile
