1T THRILLED THE SPECTATORS

The Exhibition by Captain Bam-
berg of the Aerial Extension Lad
der.
Yesterdays Bridgeport Standard says:
High in the air, like huge fish dangling
from gigantic appraised pole, hung a hu-
man figure at the corner of Main and Can
non streets at $3.50 o'clock yesterday after
noon. The fish that was not fish was
Christian Bamberg of the aerial truck COM
pany, and the pole was the new aerial ex-
tension ladder.
Eighty-fve feet from the ground with
1 500 pairs of eyes fastened upon him with
painful intensity and the owners of the
800 pairs of eyes holding their breath as
the daring fireman swung backward and
forward, now at an angle of sixty-fve de-
grees, then straight up in the air and again
with the ladder bending over backward
like whalebone whip.
The dizzy height and the perfect non
chalence of the man in his perilous posi-
ton made hundreds of the spectators quail
mish with the fear that he would each
moment fall and be crushed into lifeless
mass. AS the ladder was swung into al
mOst every coucelf6Ulo poslClOu Inc crOWd
in their admiration for the ireman's nerve
forgot his apparent danger and applauded
him loudly.
The exhibition of the capabilities of the
ladder was gratifying one to the spectators
and success in every particular. The lad
der was first run up against the Sanford
building 30 that the lofty top was within
foot of the roof. After Fireman Bamberg
had assembled to the top and shown the
crowd what a really Indifferent thing it
waste him-he was lowered by a rope
running through pulley at the top of the
ladder. This was to demonstrate the way
in which the ladder will be used for life
saving purposes. By carrying hose to
the top of the ladder water can be thrown
far above the top of the highest building
in this city, and the fremen still be at
safe distance from the fire.

FOUND DEAD IN BED.

One of Southport'S Best.K nown Citi-
zens-A Brother OF Manager G. B.
Buanell, a Prosperous and Es-
teeIned Farmer, Passes Away Sud.
denly of Heart Disease.
John W. Bunnell, one of Southports
best known residents, WAS yesterday morn
ing found dead in bed, his kindly face
wearing look of calm and peaceful re-
pose and everything about him showing
that he had passed quietly away without
pain.
Among the many men who reside In the
thriving village few were more widely
known than John w. Bunnell. His e1-
tensive farm was one of the best conduct
ed in that region and received his careful
and intelligent care. Every morning he
was up and at work by o'clock and the
result of his industry was plainly shown
on his land. He worked all day Tuesday
and spent the evening with his family in
their usual social way. At the ordinary
hour the members of the household re-
tired, each one apparently in the best of
health.
Yesterday morning Mr.. Bunnell did not
arise at his usual hour of half past four.
Six o'clock came and his daughter, who
had prepared breakfast long before, called
him to the morning meal. He didn't
answer, and thinking that he was sleeping
very soundly, she went to his room.
Knocking, she received no reply, and push
ing open the door she entered quietly.
The scene which met her gaze nearly I'M
nerved her, for there lay her father in
bed, cold and motionless. A single glance
revealed the sad truth, and almost pros
trated Miss Bunnell hastened to notify her
mother and sister of the sad occurrence.
DR.. G. n. Osborne was called and said that
death had resulted from heart failure four
or five hours previously.
Mr.. Bunnell was sixty years of age and
well known in Bridgeport and had quite q
number of friends and acquaintance In
this city. He was brother of g. B. Bun.
nell, the theatrical manager of this city and
Bridgeport, and of W. 81. Bunnell, super.
intendent of poor in Bridgeport, and in
personal appearance resembled the latter.
