WASHINGTON LETTER Climbin'- Mountains (Special Correspondence.) A Perilous Pastime Nearly all the accident* on the Alps are due to the foolhardiness V tourists who do not take guides or only take one when two or three are necessary to Insure safety. The guides tire cau tious because they know the real dan gers of climbing, and they have their own reputations to consider. Though they may he entirely free from blame in case of an accident, their name will always be connected with the disaster. It Is a black mark against them, and though they have made hundreds of difficult as cent s without mishap before the one unfor tunate expedition their reputation Buffers. That great nerve and cool ness are needed In mountain climb ing I b evidenced in the illustra tion of a tourist and guide climb ing the most dan gerous part of the Murtschen- stok. The guide, going first, sup ports himself by attaching the rope to a point of rock and then pulls up the climber. The slightest slip may mean death to both. There are many guides in Swit zerland who have worked at their dangerous profession for twenty and even thirty years and havs "never lost a life”—that is the ex pression they use. There are others, equally expert and with equal coolness and courage, who are haunted by 111 luck. There Is one man, for instance, a Ger man, who has seen no fewer than four teen people go to their deaths on tbe mountains, yet his brother guides will tell you frankly that be Is one of the cleverest mountMneers ever born.
