ABOUT STEEPLES.


Some True Stories About Climbing the
Spires of Public Buildings.
A great many years ago a hurricane
occurred in Utica, N. Y, Just as it be-
gan it was noticed that heavy swing
sign in front of store was held out in
a horizontal position for some time.
Before lohg the force of the wind in
creased to such degree that several
houses ON Genessee Street Hill were
unroofed, and the spire of the Second
Presbyterian Church was thrown to
the ground.
After the storm was over it was dis
covered that the rod holding the
weather-vane on the top of the tall
steeple of the First Presbyterian Church
was bent so that it became nearly hor-
zontal. 1t was unsightly; but how to
repair the injury was the question. 1t
would be no easy task, as there was
large ball, or globe, on the rod below
the vane. After awhile sailor offered
his service. He assembled the steeple,
and climbed the rod until he came Just
beneath the globe. Then he threw
rope out a good many times, until,
after awhile, the end looped around
over the rod above the globe, long
enough to reach to him. Twisting the
rope together, he let go of the iron
rod, and, trusting himself to the rope,
swung out free By climbing it he now
managed to get ON the top of the globe.
Standing there, he succeeded in
Strengthening the rod that held the
weather-vane.
Now, how was he to get DOWN.
Again trusting to the rope that was
fastened to the rod above the globe, he
swung free at great height from the
earth; then lowering himself, and
swinging back and forth, he managed to
grasp the rod beneath the globe, and,
soon reaching the spire, descended.
The steeple of Salisbury Cathedral is
the highest in England, and next TO
that Of Strasburg Cathedral, the high

climbs to the top to grease the weather.
vane. This is done by ascending the
inside as far as possible and then going
out of manhole and climbing the
rest of the way by means of the brass
staples fastened on the outer wall.
Once on a festal occasion, when the
King was present, a reward was of

would ascend and attend to the
weather-vane. A sailor agreed to do
it, and assembled in the way | have told
you, until he came to the copostone,
when, to show what he could do, he
stood on his head. Then performing
the task he was sent to do, that OF
greasing the vane, he descended and
claimed his reward. But tho King was
so exasperated at the sailor for need

Mr.. NJ. ID. Kelly, the popular jew

an old-time French watch made by

is about an inch and Il half in diane

works are as good as they were two

TOBACCO LEAF: Sunday morning,
as VIM. Cawlishaw, of this city, was
pulling up Cumberland river, when
about twelve miles above the city, he
came upon the body of man, caught
in the willows and driitwood near
the bank. The body was apparently
that of a white man, though it had
been in the water so long that the
fact could not be told with certainty.
The man evidently was not over me-
