A DEAD WIRES LIVELY WORK,
Commotion Caused In Harvard Square,
Cambridge,

On Tuesday afternoon "deadv telephone
wire, which had fallen across the street,
caused quite commotion In Harvard square,
Cambridge, Mass. This wire had not been
used for long time, and w. HI. Eveleth,
superintendent of the college buildings, at
tempted to cut 1t down. 1t fell upon the
trolley wire of the West End street railway,
and, dropping to the ground, caused an ex-
plosion, producing bright flashes. Mr.. Eve
leth and some of the college help tried to re,
move the wire from its dangerous position
with ropes and by other means, but for
long time the only result of their endeavors
was a series of explosions, which tore up the
street and melted the railroad tracks at differ
ent points.
The display attracted large ana curious
crowd. Owing to a lack of foresight to keep
horses away from the dangerous place, n
valuable animal driven by j. NJ. Hitler of
No. 80 Elm street, stepped on the wire and
was instantly killed. Mr.. Hitler was also
hit by the wire, and, although somewhat
stunned by the shock, fortunately escaped
serious injury. The wire in falling crossed
some of the telephone wires, burning out
several of the instruments In the neighbor-
hood. After many attempts the dangerous
wire was finally removed.

grief of David resounding through all sue
ceeding ages. This was the city that heard
the woe. Jerusalem, Jerusalem!
am also thrilled and oyerpowered with
the remembrance that yonder, where now
stands a Mohammedan mosque, stood the
temple, the very one that Christ visited.
Solomon's temple had stood there, but
NebuchadneZZar Numbered it down. Zerub-
nabePs temple had stood there, but that had
been Frustrated. Then Herod built O temple
because he was fond of great architecture,
and he wanted the preceding temples to
seem insignificant. Put eight or ten modern
cathedralS together, and they would not equal
that structure. 1t covered 10 acres. There
were marble pillars supporting roofs of cedar,
and silver tables on which stood golden cups,
and there were carvings exquisite and in
scriptions respondent, glittering balustrades
and Ornamented gateways, The building of
this temple kept 10000 workmen busy 46
years, Stupendous pile of pomp and mag
niicencel But the material and architectu-
raj grandeur of the building were very tame
compared with the spiritual meaning of its
affairs and holy of holes, and the overwhelm-
ing significance of It's ceremonies, o Jerusa-
lem, Jerusalem.
But standing in this old city all other facts
are eclipsed when we think that near here
our blessed Lord was born, that up and down
the streets of this city he walked and that in
the outskirts of 1t he died, Here was his only
day of triumph and his assassination, One
day this old Jerusalem is at the tiptop of ex-
eitement. Christ has been doing some re-
msrkable works and asserting very high au-
thority. The police court has issued papers
for his arrest, for this thing must be stopped,
as the very government is imperiled, New
comes that last night this stranger arrived at
a suburban village and that he is stopping at
the house of a man whom he had resusctated
after four days sculpture. Well, the people
rush out into the streets, some with the idea
of helping in the arrest of this stranger when
he arrives, and others expecting that ON the
some supernatural force, GUST the municipal
and royal authorities and take everything in
his own hands.
They pour out of the city gates until the
procession reaches to the village. They come
all around about the house where the stranger
is stopping and peer into the doors and VIM
dows that they may get one glimpse of him

War between the United States and Eng
land exists at the close of this century. A
Syndicate contract with this Government
to establish peace within a year. They
equip number of ships with steel armor,
and construct several submarine vessels
called "crabs." Bombs of wonderful de-
structive power are fired from the steel
ships, which blow to atoms two Canadian
forts and monster iron-clad man-of-war.
The crabs, by means of powerful mechan
ical jaws, disable number of English
war-ships by tearing off their rudders and
propellers. One of the largest stellar
mored "repellers," accompanied by fleet
Of crabs, proceeds to the British Isles,
where several more men-of-war are dis
abled and dynamite gunboat captured.
The entire British fleet then prepare to as
sault the repeller, but bombs exploded in
the sea cause such a disturbance in the
water that a near approach is impossible.
The British fleet then retire from the con-
flict. A letter is sent TO the English Gov
ernment by the Syndicate with the request
The gold leaf. [volume] (Henderson, N.C.) 1881-1911, 1889-04-04

that they name some fortified place which
the Syndicate will destroy in order t.
demonstrate the power of their bombs.
After deliberating several days, the Gov
ernment select Caerdaff, on the Welsh
coast, as the place to be destroyed. On the
appointed day the repeller begins the bonl-
bardment from a point nine miles away.
and such is the destructive power of the
bombs that the high promontory of Caer-
daft is completely effaced and the cOas
line SO changed that new bay is created
This, of course, cOnvinces the English that
it is useless to longer fight against the Syn
dicate, and treaty of peace is soon nego-
tiated. Then the American and English
Governments secure control of the inven-
tions OF the Great War Syndicate, and an
alliance for the domination of the world is
speedily formed between the two nations,
to the vast and almost immediate improve
ment of all mankind. During the whole
of the war but one man is killed, and his
death is caused by the fall of derrick. A
monument is raised to his memory.
