A Muscular Young man.

"Sile" Brewster, Que of the workman
engaged this week in repairing the Law
renee street bridge, and in the employ
of Messrs Sullivan Il Rice, is great
character. He is young fellow about
rs years of age, six feet high, and weighs
between 100 and 40 pounds. Inappear-
ance he is tall and thin, and more in
clined to the feminine then masculine,
but nevertheless giant in strength and
an athlete in action. In the work on
which he is engaged is no child's play,
it being heavy and laborious. Still to
"Sile" it appears as naught. Whether
hammering rivets, hosting timbers or
carrying beams, he is ever happy, and
the-devil-msy care twinkle of his eyes,
together with his many tricks of agility.

effects him but little. The other after
noon the iron castings for the bridge ar

hundred pounds. 1t was thought at first
a derrick would have to be erected to
place them in position. "Sile" laughed
at the idea, aud coolly taking the heav-
lest piece in his arms and carried it
about 200 feet and placed it in its prop
er place on the bridge, paying little heed
to the wondering eyes that were upon
him. A moment afterward he was call
ed to spike some planks upon the bridge,
and being in hurry to execute the or
der, he reached for the railing, which was
some two feet above his head as be stood,
and vanlted clear over il, striking On his
feet, and Immediately executing double
somerssult, striking on his hands then
on his knees right on the spot where he
was called to do the spiking. And so
he goes all day long; now carrying as
much as two ordinary men can lift;
again performing some feat that would
do credit to an acrobat in the ring, and
never for moment sighting or neglect
ing his work or the good and welfare of
his employers. 1t is said of him on
authority, that recently he carried a
parlor safe weighing 400 pounds up
three flights of stairs with as much ease
as though it were box of so or 100
pounds. he is indeed a won ierful
young man, and no one appreciates his
worth more than Messrs. Sullivan 4
