That modern device Is tho elevator. To the present generation, accustomed to ride from floor to floor and to push the elevator bell button and wait for the car rather than climb a flight of stairs. It proba bly^eems queer to see or hoar the ele vator mentioned as a modern device. Men to their youth and even In their middle age have become so habituated to the elevator that they feel that such a thing always was4 or at least that it la coeval with brick and stone build ings. Yet the elevator Is a modern device, and the word "elevator" In the application given it In America Is now er still than the contrivance It de scribes. Before tho demolition of the old Fifth Avenue hotel In New York there was \u one of the elevators a tablet, on which vwtus Inscribed this: "In this apace was erected and operated lu 185U Tuft's vertical screw railway, the flrst passenger elevator ever built. That elevator was one of the chief wonders of the hotel, which, because of Its luxury and mngulflcence. was considered one of the wonders of the i new world. The "vertical railway," which saved persons the trouble of walking up and down stairs, was widely written about and people came from far and near to look at the strange invention and to be able to tell their admiring friends In Boston. Philadelphia, Baltimore aud Washington and other cities out in the provinces that they had been able to go up and down stairs without walk Ing. * When travelers came from New York and told about this vortical screw rail way to our grandfathers, those worthy gentlemen raised their eyes and hands In astonishment and probably exclaim ed, "Will wonders never cease?" An Epgllsh trade paper, the London Builder, In September, 1859, had an editorial on the subject of the vertical screw railway In the United 8tates, saying: "It Is a carriage that will move from the top to the bottom of the building and from the bottom to the top. It will be forced upward by the application of steam power, and the descent will be regulated by the resistance of hydraulic power." It was not until tho early seventies that verttcal railway was intro duced in England, the flrst "lift" being Installed In Albert hall, and to ride in this passengers were required to pay a fee of one penny. Conservative peo pie in America and England looked on this invention with grave suspicion and "felt It in their bones" that it wa* only a question of time when It would fall down andjklll everybody in It. Today the "lift" is nothing like so common? it* Europe as the elevator, which Is the same thing. Is In the United States. One reason for this Is that the United States Is the birthplace and the home of the skyscraper, while hi ch imlldlngs. as building heights are mensnred In America, are Infrequent In Europe.?
