feat of aerial work that ranks with
the greatest performances of the worlds
athletics is going on just now over Car
quineZ straits. Otto Wilson, a German
rigger, is engaged in greasing the cables of
the Bay Counties Power Company, which
stretch across the straits at an average of
300 feet from the water. Mounted on lit
tie three by three platform, that sways
with every puff of the wind Of the upper
air. and runs along a cable that seems pa

this daring workman has toiled every day
for the past month. On pure facts it would
seem to exceed the nerviest feats Of the
Worlds tght-rope walkers and steeple-
jacks The men who cross Niagara Falls
on a tight rope have this in their favor
they are on the rope for only few min
utes and they are never at more than
short distance from land and less than fifty
feet above the water The steeplejacks,
whose performances in the great cities
never fail to draw a crowd, work dashed to
a substantial structure, which is very little
influenced by the winds. Moreover, it is
tradition of the trade that few men among
them can work when the steeple is rocking,
though ever so little, through the influence
OF a high wind. Now, the average height

feet from the surface of the water below
him. In most of his work he is at least
half mile from the tower from which he
makes MS start and which represents dry
land to him, and he stays with his work
about eight hours day without once COM
ing to landing. Besides-and this is the
most wonderful part Of the performance
the caDle on which he operates is continu-
ally swaying in the wind and his narrow
platform is so fastened that it sways from
side to side with the motion in the fashion
of a rocking chair fastened to a rope by
the extreme upper end of it's back On
these facts 1t looks as though Otto Wilson
mad the records of the Niagara Falls walk
ers and the steeplejacks beaten by many
nOtches.
