WALLTNGFORD.

There has been quite little COM
plant because the crosswalks about
the borough were not all cleared from
snow since the last heavy snow storm,
but the facts of the case are that al
though efforts on the part Of the war
den to have the work done have been
all that could be expected, it has been
almost impossible to hire help to do
the work as there are but few about
town, who will work, that have not got
other work to do and are not doing
outside jobs
The sleighs have about disappeared
as the rain storm spoiled the sleighng.
The board of burgesses failed to get
a quorum Tuesday evening and ad-
journed until this evening.

A DAREDEVIL WORKMAN.
His Remarkable Feat on the Big
Bridge Across the Niagara.

His Remarkable Feat on the Big
Bridge Across the Niagara.
II remember" said a bridge contrac-
tor some time ago while. on the sub
ject of workmen's dare-deviltries,
when working at the big bridge across
the Niagara, when the two cantilever
arms had approached within fifty feet
of each other keen rivalry as to who
should be the first to cross sprang up
among the men. A long plank connect
ed the two arms, leaving about two and
a half feet of support at each end
Strict orders were issued that no one
should attempt to cross the plank upon
penalty of instant dismissal. At the
noon hour I suddenly heard a great
shout from the men, who were all star
ing up.
Raising my eyes / saw a man step on
the end of that plank, stop a minute
and look down into the whirlpool be-
low. 1 knew he was going to cross, and
I shouted to him, but he was too high
up to hear. Deliberately he walked
out until he reached the middle of the
plank. 1t sagged far down with his
weight until could see light between
the two shore supporting ends and the
cantilevers on which they rested. He
saw the end in front of him do this,
hesitated and looked to see how the
other end was.
I thought he was going to turn. He
stopped, grasped both edges of the
plank with his hands, and throwing his
feet up, stood on his head, kicking his
legsin the air, cracking his heels to-
gether and yelling to the terrified on
lockers. This he did for about min
