A. L. Harrington was seriously in
jured while getting a house ready
for moving down in the Fourth ward
Tuesday forenoon. One corner OF
the house was being raised by means
OF a long pole rs a lever and Mr..
Harrington vas in the act of remov-

building when the accident occurred
His assistants were unable to hold
the building up, owing to INSULT
cient leverage and as it lowered Mr..

Mr.. easier filed the office like only
a good democrat can, but resigned
in 1894, having since been following
the occupation of steam engineer
