A L0WLY HERO,
Risks His Own Life and Loses it in
an Effort to Save a Fellow Work
man from an Awful Death.

Pittsburg. Pa, November 26.-Ed-
ward Martin and GOttfried Pirt, lost
their lives this afternoon in Allegheny
by inhaling sewer gas in a well they
had dug TO relieve an old vault adjoin-
ing. The well was eighteen feet deep
ana Martin was lowered TO the bottom
by means of a rope and windlass to
make the connection between the two
wells. He shouted up several times
that everything was all right. Once
he said the job reminded him OF tapping
keg OF beer. Finally he shouted:
I've struck the other side and the
waste water is coming.
The next moment his partner heard
an agonized scream. He loked down
and could see Martin holding his head
and feebly motioning to be drawn TO
the top. The foul sever gas had
commenced to escape and the fright
full odor issued to the top, causing the
spectators to hasten away. Hirt pull
ed at the rope, but the light weight
communicated the fact that nobody was
at the end of 1t. He then lOked down
and saw the body of Martin fall to the
bottom of the well, which was rapidly
being filled by the stream fast flowing
in. Il must save Edward were the
brave mans words as he leaped on the
rope and slowly descended to his death
at the bottom. He died with his arm
about his companion, and was endeav-
oring TO pick him up when he was over
come himself.

Before the beginning of the new year a
big corporation will be formed embrac-
ing practically all the sandstone quarry
interests of the United States. Prac-
tically all the building sandstone quar-
ried in this country east of the Rocky
mountains comes from northern Ohio.
the only other place where it is found
being in a small spot near Denver.
The companies that will become part
of the new corporation are the Malone
Stone Co., quarries at Euclid and AM
herst, Ohio; Cleveland Stone Co.. quar-
ries at Berea and Amherst; Forest City
Stone Co., quarries at Euclid and CO.
lumbia Center, Ohio; Mussy Stone Co.,
quarries at Elyria and Amherst. Ohio;

Ohio; Grafton Stone Co.. quarries at
Grafton, Ohio; Bailey Stone Co.. quar-
ries at Berlin Heights Ohio. Bryant
Stone Co., quarries at Elyria. Ohio:
Ohio Stone Co., quarres at Independ-
ence, Ohio.
A year ago these companies came to-
gether and made price agreement.
Previous 10 that time they had for some
tine failed to make money, but after
the agreement profits became larger.
The agreement has been kept and now
il is thought best TO sOlidify it by means
of one great corporation. II Is vsui-
mated that a saving Of 10 per cent will
be made in operating expenses alone.
The capital will be S5,00O.000 and the
intention is to buy up all the small
quarrieS not in the combination.
