EVEREST TOP STILL UNTR0D
But British Explorers in Recent At
tempt Got to Height Never
Previously Attained.

The highest point above sea level
ever reached by a human being afoot.
1890 feet, was attained, with the aid
Of oxygen-breathing apparatus. by
two members of the Mount Everest
expedition at noon, the 27th of last
May, says Henry S. White In the Pop
ular Mechanics Magazine This brought
the explorers within 1,702 feet Of the
summit. the highest point on the
earth's surface. The final attempt
was TO have been made June 6, but
the monsoon broke June 8, definitely
frustrating any further efforts for this
year at least When the monsoon
breaks on Mount Everest, there is no
alternative but to get of the noun
tain as soon as possible.
1t has now been definitely proved
that the mountain itself at the highest
points reached is not difficult to climb,
and the two explorers who came so
near to reaching the actual summit
were able to proceed along the north
face without ropes. The one and only
obstacle that made the summit unat-
tainable was the bad weather, and
with the monsoon left out, It is GER
tain that the summit will be reached
at the next attempt. The two explor-
ers who reached this highest point
were Capt. Godfrey Bruce, one of the
leaders Of the expedition, and George
Finch, a scientist attached to 1t.

ROUGH Men and Robins.

A few days ago a car inspector,
looking over q coal train at Arkville,
N. Y, discovered a birds nest on the
top of journal box Of an empty car.
Investigation disclosed two baby rob-
lns In the nest. The orphan birds at
once became the center of attraction
for the yard men and the various train
crews. 1t was quite evident the young
robins needed parents.
In an effort to find the home of the
young travellers 1t was learned that
the empty car had been picked up at
West Davenport, "a miles distant. A
delegation of switchmen, yardmen,
tralnmen and other interested persons
Immediately waited on the division
superintendent. The car was hooked
on to an engine and taken back to
West Davenport, where 1t was spotted
In the railroad yard at the exact place
from which 1t had been taken. The
frantic mother bird found her little
ones and everybody was happy.
