PIKESPEAKERS
TOCELEIBRATE
HUNDREDTH ANNIVERSARY OF
FIRST CLIMB BY DIR. FRANK
JAMES WILL BE ATHLETIC
EVENT.

Colorado Springs, Colo, July IA
One hundred years ago today Dr.
Frank James astonished the world by
climbing to the top of Pixies Peak
14,109 feet above the sea. Since that
/ time 100000 persons have made the
trip and today Colorado Springs is
celebrating the anniversary with cere-
monies all along the 1S-mile serpen-
tine automobile highway to the sum-
NIT.
Lieutenant ZebuIon NJ Pike is
credited with the discovery of the
mountain in 1906, AS hardly a pion-
eer was the discoverer, he declared
the peak was inaccessible and none
! dared to doubt it until July IA, 1920,
when Doctor James. member of the
I Major Long expedition, succeeded in
the attempt
Major Long christened the noun
tain James peak but the pioneers and
plainsmen persisted in giving it the
name of it's discoverer and Pixies Peak
is has remained.
The history of tourist travel to this
most famous spot of the Rockies has
been that of the development of
highway transportation. First came a
bride path, in 1873 two years later
wagon road was built and in 1891
q cog wheel railroad was constructed
With the development of the auto
mobile industry, came the demand
for a motor road and in 1916 the
Dresent motor highway, winding
around the mountain in devious
curves. with preeipitous rock ways
flush against the road on one hand
and deep ravines on the other, was
completed at cost of 100000. 1t has
an average grade of 7 per cent and a
maximum of 10 IA per cent. 1t was
20 feet wide except at the curves
which were extended to so feet for
the greater safety of the motorist.
Pixies Peak is eight miles in an air
line from Colorado Springs and the
greater part of the mountain is con-
trolled by Colorado Springs to safe
guard the city's water supply.
In April, 1915 government war
tank attempted q cl3lnb fha peak but
was blocked by ROW drlGEs A month
later caterpillr tr8atos made the
ascent. .s...s
Walking race, paFr0 races, motor

held on Pixies leak, Til first air.

her canvas measures but 5000 square
feet.
An idea of the amount of canvas
in a yachts suit of clothes can be
gotten by comparison to an ordinary
bed sheet. The standard bed sheet is
"a inches wide and 81 inches long.
The canvas used on the Shamrock
would make 355 sheets. It's heavy,
too. Canvas in the mainsan alone
weighs 1900 pounds.
1t costs a lot to buy a yacht a new
suit of clothes, too. A complete out
fit would now cost around $4,000. So
when one Of the sails is ripped in the
gales the repairs are expensive, and
this is almost constantly happening.
AS to the yachts that are to figure
in the 18th classic, the challenger
looms up beside the defender While
they were on dry-dock in the Brook
lyn navy yards for measurement the
contrast was especially noticeable.
The Resolute is a thing of beauty,
with her graceful curves and stream
lines. Yet talmost looks dwarfted
beside the towering Shamrock.
The hull of the American craft is
built of manganese bronze plates riv-
eted to nickel steel frames. These
plates are $50 inches thick. The deck
is of aluminium 1882 inches thick, COW
cred with canvas and sand to give her
shippers a sole footing.
Her mast is IF hollow steel. The

money being spent by Americans to
the urgent needs of the people in the

Motor buses and private automo-
biles crowded with sight-seers have
begun pilgrimages to the battlefields

Second and Thirty second divisions
fought under General Mangin and
pushed back the Germans, hberating

Members of the committee will
personally manage the tea rooms and
wait on the patrons. Moderate prices
will be charged and the profits will
be used to buy chickens and to aid
children needing special care.

nature to them. All of them are re-

Their teamwork in flying sails is
excellent and. they suit the Irish

1t costs a small fortune to maintain
yachting crews.
Sailors who formerly were paid $50
a month and $25 additional for board,
now receive 800 per month with a ra =
ton allowance of S45. The Resolute's
expense for her crew is estimated at
$25, 900. The Shamrock's sailors will
cost even more.
The men are given extra prize
moneys and. bonuses for racing, which
will add further to the upkeep of the
enterprise.
