THIS RIDE A REAL THRILLER
Ascent by Elevator to Summit Of
Alpine Peak Worth Going Long
Journey to Take.

For years one Of the most thrilling
incidents Of a visit to the Alps has
been the ascent Of the Jungfrsu on
the cog-rall road that starts from
Kleine Scheidegg, at an elevation Of
Gill feet and climbs the mountain
side at the startling grade of 20 per
cent, or an angle of about ~ degrees,
till 1t reaches Jungfraujoch, at an ele-
walton of 1889 feet
In an illustrated article In Popular
Mechanics Magazine is told how 1t IL
now proposed to add to this wonderful
experience in mountain climbing a still
further thrill, by comparison with which
the former will appear quite inslpld.
From the present end Of the track the
mountain scars another 2,206 feet to
feet. By means of excavations and
tunnels the track will be extended I'M
til 1t reaches spot in the center OF
the conical summit directly below its
highest point. From the end Of this
tunnel a shaft will be bored vertically
to the summit itself, and in this shaft
passenger elevators will be installed,
so that Alpine mountalneers will end
their long thrilling railroad climb with
an elevator trip like an exaggerated
ride to the top of the Woolworth
in New York city. The climax
will find them landed at the extreme
summit Of one of the highest peaks in
the Alps, with view of world Of
snow-clad, craggy mountain tops
around them

Use for Exhaust Gas.

At its point of issue from the cylln-
der the exhaust has a temperature Of
from 800 degrees to 1000 degrees f.,
and consists almost entirely of carbon
dioxide-a colorless and odorless gas.
These properties make it suitable for
carbonizing wood, that is TO say, max
ing charcoal, and 1t Is now being
utilized for that purpose in France.
The hot gases are caused to traverse
a specially constructed oven, in which
the wood is suitably arranged, by
which means the temperature of the
wood is raised to about 800 degrees,
which carbonizes without burning or
igniting 1t. Many ovens Of this type
were installed during the war, in
Algeria and Tunis. with the object OF
furnishing a substitute for anthra-
cite coal, which was very scarce and
dear, for use in enriching lowgrade
gas for motor purposes.-PopulaI

FACTS OF HISTORIC INTEREST
Revealed by Extensive Excavations
on Sites Of Revolutionary Camps
on the Hudson Heights.

Three years Of excavating on sites
Of Revolutionary camps in the Hud-
son highlands, near West Point, has
enabled commission Of the New York
Historical society to establish inter-
esting historical facts that have long
been in dispute.
The chief source Of information
has been refuse heaps Of the armed
camps Of Washington, and many facts
have been learned merely from ex-
aiming the buttons in the old dumps.
Examination of cooking utensils and
cutlery, broken pottery and other i'm
perishable articles has aided the com
mission. The buttons, still showing
the insignia after a century and a
half, show that ten Massachusetts,
regiments, FIVE from Connecticut and
one from Rhode Island, occupied the
main fortress in the highlands. But
tons worn in one camp by Connecticut
soldiers bore an imprint in honor Of
the birth Of the French dauphin, show
ing that the soldiers were in camp
after 1881.
Similar investigation on the sites
Of British camps show their troops
lived In much more luxury than the
men who won independence for Amer
lea. Silver buckles, china and much
broken glass from rum containers tell
the story Of the invaders rations. The
Revolutionary troops used hand-forged
forks, pewter spoons, and left no bro
ken glass.
The excavations have also revealed
the extent Of certain Notifications,
and forts have been discovered Of
which there was no record.

Good Neluhbors."

Mrs. Merriweather and her four
small children lived in little house
in - street, where the neighbors
were exceedingly friendly over the
back fence, and made many back-door
calls. Mrs. M. began to worry about
the children and their surroundings
as they grew older, and moved to an
other part of the town. Shortly after
moving away Geraldine met one OF
the old neighbors who inquired as to
how she liked her new home and the
neighbors. Geraldine, being only seven
and honest, replied:
1--WE like our new home all right,
but we haven't any good neighbors
now-they all stay home and mind
their own business. "-Indlanapolis

during the luncheon period, but
later 1t was decided TO have him
the first speaker at the afternoon
session, which convened at 2:2U
o'clock.
In opening his address, Mr..
Cadwallader set at rest the idea
that the American Red Cross was
purely wartime agency. He
pointed out that by reason OF the
great part the Red Cross has play
ed in war, 1t had become common
habit to associate the organiza-
ton wholly with war, whereas. IN
truth, its sreat WORK was in the
field OF peace time endeavor.

The other row was at the Col.
lier mine Of the H. c. FrIck Co.,
where a large body OF women GATH

guards at the plant rounded up the
women, and running out line Of
fire hose prepared to drench them.
Water, however, was unavailable.
but the sight OF the hose, reports

threw the women into a panic,
some OF them becoming hysteTicaL.
They were allowed to so home aft

Reports from union organizers
and coal operators showed there
had been little change in the strike
situation in the coke region over
Sunday. Big meetings we're held
by the union at a number OF
points yesterday, and 1t was said
the campaign would be continued.

a $4,000 policy had been OBJ
tanned by Sol Burka. manager Of
the Blue Ridge Theater, for the
engagement Of THE Four Horse
