electric railway companies In Brooklyn.
1t must be said, however, that the

child victims. one boy stealing ride
on wagon jumped OFF in front OF car.
Another boy playing tag with his COM
panions tried to get across the track
in front OF the motor. 1t is the duty of
parents to strongly warn their chill

in which two men narrowly escaped
death and one small steamer nearly went
down To was about 10 a.
m and thousand-pound charge
of dynamite had been lowered The cleo

the cap did not explode. Two dynami-
tiers i'm a boat attempted TO raise the
charge, when a terrific disturbance Of the
water was noticed and the boat dashed
through the waves at terrific speed. The
dyuamiters struggled to keep the boat
from capsizng, and the steamer loaded
with men started TO rescue them, think
ing a large fish was in tow. When about
500 yards from the boat an immense devil
fish appeared, its tentacles rising thirty
feet above the waves and flashing
the water into fury. The
steamer started around to retreat
and the men in the boat realizing their
danger, cut the rope and allowed the
monster to escape. The adventure
created considerable talk in Brunswick
and the mdOubted veracity of the wit
