which James Dunlap, the bridge tender at the

bridge, sustained injuries that will at least
cripple him for life. At the hour specified Mr.

The work was very nearly finished. when the
portion of the jack-screw held by Mr.. Dunlap
suddenly parted, precipitating the unfortunate
man onto the ice below, a distance of over
twenty feet. Assistance was Immediately
called, and the sufferer was conveyed to his
