Two Men Buried Alive.

Two deaths have resulted in the
work of putting in a new system of
sewers at Ann Arbor. The work was
being rushed between Huron and
Washington streets, through a section
where there is a quantity of quiclisand.
Extra precaution was taken in curling
the ditch, but small quantity of sand
running out underneath caused the
curbing TO tip, and without warning a
large amount of dirt gave way and
filled the ditch. One pipe-layer and
two graders were working when the
cavern came, seventeen feet below the
surface. One man jumped and saved
himself, but George Henry, colored,
and Richard Supple, were buried un-
derneath the immense mass of dirt. A
rescuing party was Immediately put to
work, but both men were dead when
found. Both were middle-aged men,
Henry leaving a widow and two child
rem and Supple a dependent mother.

fire, but with no effect. The iisanes
spread, the Harvard College trust
building was taken in their grasp, the
Globe cafe was destroyed, a number of
residences were eaten up and for a
time it seemed that general conhagra-
ton was imminent, but the freuteD's
brave work prevented this. The loss is
about $1,000, GOO; mostly insured.
The Globe theater was burned on
Decoration Day 1873. During this last
disaster Hanlon's ''Superba" was the
current attraction and all their spien-
did scenery and costumes were de-
stroyed entailing loss Of $780, 900. This
