Death.
CINCINNATI, Jan. 2-The coolness and
heroism Of John Beckley, foreman of gang
OF street workmen, probably saved several
lives Thursday morning. Eight or ten men
under his direction were repairing leakage
in forty inch main, corner of Eighth street
and Eggleston avenue. They had dug a
hole about twenty feet square and ten feet
deep in the middle of the street AMI We're
quietly at work, when suddenly sound
ike au underground explosion was heard
from the east bank of the cavity. Then the
earth Of one side began to slip away
rapidly, and was followed by an over
whelming food of water "Jump for your
lives, boys the foreman Shouted "Climb
odt climb out or drown" The men began
TO scramble up, but it was almost im9ossi-
BILE, and the water poured in like mill
race, and the heavy banks of earth began
crumbling in 1t looked as though the men
would be caught and drowned like rats in a
pit before help could be given, when Beck
ley called to them; Here, boys, climb up
on my shoulder; steady, now; one at a
time " And in that heroic manner every
man was saved. Beckley was the last to be
pulled out of the ditch, and when he left it
the water was up to his arE-pits. Just as
caved in, carrying several tons of earth into
the place where the men had been struggling
but moment before. But for Beckley S
action several would have been caught in it
and inevitably drowned
