on top of the truss, on the north side,
when it went over, and was carried
down with the iron work into the river,
sixty or seventy feet below. He was
struck by piece of truss on the way
down. and was probably killed before
striking the water. A workman named
McClOskey was rescued from the river
after the accident, being found hanging
to one of the stringers OF the bridge.
About thirty men were at work on the
span, but as soon as the truSses began
to settle they were given warning, and
all but the three men named above
escaped to other spans. Some pedestri-
ans and carriages had very narrow es-

pantomime so popular in London at Christ
mas time, though the typical harlequinade
Is absent, and for this reason is specially

ments. The story OF the play is rs follows:
A bold, brave and handsome young knight
loves lady fair. So also does Drsco, the
demon. Draco, with the aid Of his horrible
lurking and grovelling devils, seeks TO OBJ
tain possession of the lovely Lady Elsa, and
to encompass the destruction OF the gallant
Sir Egbert. OF course the Water Queen
always appears at the proper time, and
waving her wand paralyzes Drsco. All
finally ends happily with the marriage Of
the young people and the banishment of
Draco.
