given to those who by their ef
forts have made the Condon Ath
letic Club so great a success. An
athletic association of this kind
is a great boon to the town, for,
laying aside the physical good
which it brings to the young
man, it also benefits him ; moral
ly, since, as the old saying has
it: , A healthy mind requires a
healthy body." The people of
Condon should be proud of hav
ing such an organization in their
midst, and should encourage it
to the best of their ability."

PASSENGER ELEVATORS.
Thtir Invention Mada- tha Modern
Skyecrapar Possible.
. It is certain that the earliest and tb
most Indispensable of the factors which
have enabled the construction of the
mighty skyscrapers of today was the
passvuger elevator and that this' was
brought Into use during the sixties of
the lust century, its first appearance
la New York being In the fifth Ave
nue hotel. It was at about the same
tline introduced luto the Astor House,
then already a generation old. So ob
vious was the- utility of this device
that the wonder again Is that It bad
not been brought Into practice long be
fore. Hoists are. of course, as old as
the Dutch warehouses, 'of -which the
picturesquenesa Is enhanced - by the
projecting cranes that worked the
hoists, doubtless as old as Archimedes.
But hotels, even wheo the Fifth Ave
nue was built, were conditioned In al
titude, as were -all other bolldings not
exclusively monumental, by the pow
ers of ascension of the unassisted hu
man leg. Five stories was the max
imum for commercial buildings, except
that an attlcal sixth might be added
for the discommodation of the janitor,
whose name was Ilobson and who had
to go -where he ai sent, which, nat
urally, was Where-no "paying guest
could be induced to go. He and his
may have taken their outlook on life
from silts or bullseyes just under the
roof. . In the cases of hotels the sixth
story was assigned to servants and
storerooms. Tenants or Inmates could
not be Induced to climb more than
four Sights of stairs and grumbled
grievously In the case of inmates 'of
hotels and accused,' the hotel clerk of
perfidy when . they had to climb ;so
many. A device! which would make
all the floors, even of a five story hotel,
equally accessible, and so equally de
sirable, -was a device very sure of im
mediate adoption, so sure that the only
wonder was that the supply of it
shonld have so lagged behind the .de
mand. The beginnings of the eleva
tors were, it . Is quite true, the begin
nings also of what In their earlier
stages were known as the "elevator
buildings." Scribner's Magazine,
time anj wrong turn will surely mean
a night in the open and perhaps a
temperature of 40 degrees of frost.
Dog driving also teaches one what
boxing is said to teach, self control,
for of all the trials of temper one can
be called on to endure the worst la.
given a glorious day tor traveling and
when one Is In a hurry, to have one's
dogs run wild, listening to nothing,
not watching anything, but tangling
with every stump and tree and biting
at everything that comes In the way,
As one man told me when I asked
him what kind of a team he had:
bad to give 'em up, sir, though I loved
they well enough. Good dogs be that
wild It Is too hard for to b a-handlln'
of 'em and be a Christian, too, air."
EXHILARATING SPORT.
i
Dog Driving Ovr the Ice and Snow of
Labrador. f
Winter driving with a team oft a
dozen dogs is declared by Dr. GrenfeU
of Labrador to be the most fascinating
sport ever enjoyed by man. His de
scription of it as quoted by James
Johnstone in his book, "GrenfeU 'of
Labrador," Is as follows: '
Although there Js no harder work
when driving over a rough country,
yet the bracing cold, the exhilarating
brightness of the reflected light from
the snow, the difficulty of getting bad
ly hurt, however sharply one shontB' a
mountain side or even tumbles over a
cliff, the absence of damp or moisture,
the fact that one can travel anywhere
In soft, light moccasins and in Buch
clothing as Is most .conducive to agil
ity, without any reference to conven
tionality, all help to vanquish any re
alization of labor on a long trip.
' There Is infinite scope for skill in
choosing, tending and training your
dogs, also for both pluck and physical
strength In driving, and all the craft of
the woodsman is called for in crossing
miles of virgin countrywhere at any
