Finney was tightening a nut on dead engine, when the wrench slipped off and ha fell into the front end of the pit in which the largr drive wheel revolves. The atmospheric pressure caused by the rapid revolution of the wheel carried him under the wheel and threw him out onto the floor of inc engine room. The boys in the power house all thought he was dead, but when they picked him up he showrd signs of life, and as soon as respiration could be re- sumti he seemc1 an right, with t.le exception af being ba1sy bruised up all ovcr II is miracle how such an ac- cdcnt could happen without causing instant death. The young nan realiz- es that ke was in the biggest kind of luck. He has bern laying off ever since the accident. nursing his bruises, but will soon be at work again.
