been guiding the ponderons mass, sud
denly gave piercing and agonizlng
shrek thst startled the crowd who
were watching the operation. A
glance Mt the wrlthing form Of the
workman, who groaned and screamed
with pain, showed what had hap
pened. He had taken hold OF the pull
ley to swing the safe, and his fingers
had been caught In tho rope and been
drawn into the sheAyes of the block.
His fellow wOrkmen knew that to
turn the Winch either 70 hoist or lower
the safe, might result In crushing the
poor fellows hand to pulp There
was only one thing TO d0--the ropes
must lie cut and the safe allowed 10
drop 10 the sidewalk. As quickly as
possible the sidewalks and tho road
way were cleared Of pedestrians and
vehicles. Two stout fellows lay out
upon the sill and held ths body Of
their suffering c0mrade so that lie
would not he carried down with the
safe. Then the ropes were quickly
severed close 10 the block. The mans
hand was released, and he was drawn,
hnlf fainting, into the room and car
ried to surgeon's. The big safe
crashed through the Sidewalk !,
smashing heavy flRgstone into pow
der, and buried itself In the earthly
floor Of a vault under the street. The
safe was not materially injured, and
