BOY FELLe
from Top of Five-story Building and
 Was Unhurt.

From the New York Press.
 Should any circus man want first class trapeze performer, he may apply to William Quistor years old, at No. 846 Second avenue. Willie will agree to do more flights from loftier places than any grown man who ever smelled tanbark.
 And he doesn't want a net to catch him, either. All he requires is a plain, ordinary washtub, full oI water,
 Willie's development of aerial gym nastic genius was sudden. Last night he was playing on the roof of his house, live stories above the ground. Between this building and the adjoining one is triangular space. That triangle is a network of clotheslines, running from ] fiat to fiat. Willie, in his merry-mak- ing, got too near the edge of the roof, and the next instant he was flying through space.
 He didn't cry out. No, indeed; he grabbed at a clothesline. It snapped He turned somersault and caught the rope just below. That broke, too. So he went downwaru, head over heels, and heels over head, clutching at each clothesline and performing the giants swing" about it, until finally he landed in the yard.
 And, lucky boy, right there awaiting him was the tub of water. Men who ! nave dived into shallow tanks in Madi- son Square Garden must take off their hats to this boy. He splashed in and came to the surface smiling When his 4 parents rushed out crying, He's killed" he answered disgustedly, ~Nawi"
 And when an ambulance surgeon Pfelt carefully of his ribs, little Willie said, "Ah, quit ticklin' me! I'm feelin' A-ne.
 'But don't you want anything?" per- sisted the anxious doctor. "Sure,' said Willie with great propt- ness. Gimme some ice cream" 7 He got it and went to bed.
