and the police had for some years tried
unsuccessfully to capture the bandits,
the efforts of the most skillful detect

organization. The final capture was
due to the treachery of member. All

LEANING TOWERS.
why They May Be Considered the Res uIts
of Accidents

OF Accidents.
The Leaning Tower of Pisa, in Italy.
is one of the architectural wonders OF
the world. 1t has been made familiar
to most readers by pictures and by de-
scriptions. If it Were the only eN-
ample of that kind of building. the
plan and purpose of its builder would
be much more of a mystery than it is
now. The date of the completion of
this tower is given as A ID. 1850. /,
stands close by the cathedral of Pisa.
which was finished in the early pant
of the Twelfth century. Its situation,
and the use it has always served, prove
that this WAS built for bell-tower, or
belfry, canlpdniie. to the cathedral II
was then. and is now. the common
practise in Italy to build the bell-tower
apart from the church. This tower is
built entirely of white marble. and is
eight stories high. 1t leans thirteen
feet eight inches from the perpendicu-
lar, in a height of one hundred and
eighty-three feet The question has
often been raised whether this was the
result of accident or design, but there
can be little doubt that it was accident
al, and caused by the settling of the
foundations.
This seems reasonable from the fact
that the upper story does not leau so
much as those below, as if an attempt
were made to remedy the defect in the
progress of building. Another circum-
stance which leads to the same conclu-
sion is the fact that the largest bell,
which weighs six tons, is hung farthest
away from the overhanging side. Again.
this is not the only tower of the kind
in Italy, built at about the same time
There are two of them at Bologna, one
of which was begun in A. d. ITO. II
is over nine feet out of perpendicular
and is one hundred and sixty-one feet
high. In this case the foundations set
lied so fast that the tower was never
completed. The other tower at Bolog-
ma is three hundred and twenty-one
feet high, and leans over six and halt
feet from the perpendicular Iouth' S
Companion.
