OF course, when the cause is removed,

Where No Foot Had Trod.
A thunderstorm was raging among
the crags, so l hurried back and
retreated across the glacier and de-
cided to climb the aiguille. on the left.
This in Itself proved to be a consid-
cradle height, and before reaching its
summit l had become more interested
in the great walls Of the main peak.
Far too swiftly the shadow of Mo-
ran advanced to Jackson lake, the sun
disappeared, and darkness reached
upward from the valley. Meanwhile
left the ridge and traversed the face
of the mountain until 1 came to !
long chimney. Entering it, I found
my way upward in the failing light,
reaching and straddling from side to
side for possible hand and footholds.
and struggling to surmount the giant
boulders which were insecurity
wedged above me in the chimney.
At one point 1 had to leave the
chimney for a short detour on the
steep, smooth surface. Again I had
to throw my rucksack up ahead,
wedge my ak into a crack, and work
over a beetling crag. Contrary to
custom on a rock climb, l had brought
my ice-ax with me. using it in the alb
sence of companion to lengthen my
reach at difficult points. The Chin
ney was many hundred feet in length
and afforded athletic diversion which
would have been more enjoyable
earlier in the day, when should have
climbed more rapidly.
After leaving the top of the Chin
ney there was a delicate fifty feet or
more Of vertical cliff and slanting
rock where the slightest slip meant
an instant unhindered descent for
thousands of feet. On setting foot on
the highest point of the mountain l
found a level surface. possibly $50
feet long and 25 feet wide, that was
strewn with a few loose rocks. On
this summit no foot had trod.

That the modern third-class pas
Senger has more real comforts and

meant four bare walls, more or less

was to arrange with one of numerous
Outfitting firms for the erection of

there were no baths.
'The daily allowance of fresh water
was two quarts per passenger; the
only method of supplementing this
meager quantity was by catching rain
water. The term saloon was not

called the cuddy. the walters being
known as cuddy servants. The cuddy
stretched across the whole beam of
the ship and was a bare room with
one long table. There was no smok-
ing room. and in bad weather smOk-
ing on deck was difficult.
"All lights in cabins were extin-
guished at 10 p. IN. The illumination
was by candles in swinging holders
with glass shades. The cuddy was
lighted by argand lamps burning coal

many respects equal to that in the
