WORKMRN HAD NARROW ESCAPE
Runaway Car Crashed Into Work TraiT
at SteeItOB, Pa.

Harrisburg. Aug. 2S.-Over score
Of workmen made narrow escapes from
Ceath in a collision between a runaway
car and a work train yesterday in the
yards of the Pennsylvania Steel Works
at Steelton. Four Steelton men were
hurt and q dozen cut and bruised by
being tumbled out in the crash.
The men injured were: Sanko Bla-
dick, internally; Jacob Cline, contu-
Eions of body and injury to eyes; Jacob
Dieffenderfer, left arm hurt; John Kali
la, left side bruised. Several laborers
were hurt about their limbs by falling
from the car wreck, but were able to
go to work.
A heavily loaded oar car which ran
away on a trestle at number furnace
did the mischief. How it started is not
known, but 1t is supposed that the
brakes failed to hold on the incline and
the car started down the slope toward
the 13-inch rolling mill. Just before il
began to move a work train bound fol
the extension at Highspire stopped OF
a crossing below Mohn stree. to take
on a number of men for that part oi
the steel plant. While the train wa:
standing on the crossing the runaway
came shooting down the incline ant
struck a gondola car, in which over p
men were seated.

SOME CURIOUS CHURCHES.
Congregations Which Meet In Inns
WindmiIIs and Bonts.

A public house Is one of the last
places one would expect TO be used as
a place of worship The inhabitants
Of Twyford, a village near Winchester,
would not consider this at all a nov
city, because for several years past
the Phoenix Inn has been used Sunday
for religious purposes. The room In
which the religious services are held
will comfortably hold about 200 people
and opens at the back on to a pretty
tea garden. The most remarkable fea-
ture Of the services is that they are Of
ten conducted while the public house
is open for business purposes. and the
customers can join in the singing If
they are so disposed.
There are two or three instances. o.
public houses which have been con
verted into churches. and there are
also two or three theaters which are
now places If worship. The Fen dis
trict possesses a canalbOat church,
There are a large number of people
who live some distance away from any
church, and the canalboat church tray.
els from place to place for the benefit
of such folk. The boat will seat q
congregation of about 100.
The old chapel of ease at TunbridgC
Wells has unique situation. 1t stand.
in two counties and three parishes
When the clergyman leaves the vestry
he comes out of the parish of Frant OF
Sussex. If he is going to ofiiclate al
the altar, he walks into the parish oil
Tunbridge in Kent. If, on the othei
hand, he is going to preach the sermon
he walks from the parish Of Frant t'
the parish OF Speldhurst on his way t
the pulpit.
The chapel at Milton Bryant is stu
ated in the village pond. The reasoI
for the selection Of this strange sit
was because no landowner woulC
would grant any other position.
The ''wlndmilr' church near ReigatI
is familiar to London cyclists. Not 81
familiar is the underground church a

lights difficulty, the authorities coul'
not "build up" and as the site was I
good one they decided to build down.

coIored Driver Injured

Dover, Aug. 23.-Andrew Fulmer, coll
ored, driver of the heavy hauling team OF
George Farrow. was injured yesterday
afternoon by his horses running away.
Fulmer had driven his team i'm the yard
of Bradford Murphy's basket factory and
the horses became frightened by the noise
of the factory. jumped forward and ran
over the driver who was standing ahead
of them. The wagon was demolished.
II is announced that work on the VIII

The Dramatic In Life.

The undying interest which is taken
In the theater is explained by the very
profound line with which Shakespeare
began a very silly speech. "All the
worlds a stage" People as n rule
take no interest In anything that is not
dramatically tor. as in the case Of poll
tics. melodramatically formulated.
Any creed TO be popular must be dra-
matically stated. Therefore the gos-
pels are preferred TO the epistles.
Hsop's fables are remembered because
they are the truth about things stated
dramatically and morally.-F. G. Ber-
nard Shaw.

DEPTH OF A RAINFALL.
The Method by which IL Is Accurate.
" NTcnxurcd

Probably one question that has puz-
zled the lay mind is how the depth Of a
rainfall may he accurately determined.
The way It is done is this:
A funnel whose larger aperture rep
resents a surfare Of 100 square inches
is placed in a position where 1t may
catch the direct fall of the rain. with
the rim Of the funnel extending per
haps an inch or more beyond the plat
form TO which & may be fixed. This
is for the purpnse of preventing any
rain from being washed into the funnel
aud increasing the true fall. From this
funnel the water runs TO a tube which
bears an exact and carefully determln-
ed ratio TO the area Of the tunnels
mouth, say one-tenth.
IT, therefore. the tube shows water TO
the depth Of an inch. 1t Is clear that one
tenth Of an inch of rain has fallen. The
tube is provided with a carefully grad
uated scale so that the fall may be
readily seen. Three inches Of rain
would show n depth OF 80 inches in a
tube one-tenth the size of the receiving
aperture, and the decimals Of an inch
could be quickly noted by observing the
scale.
II placed on the roof OF n building,
the apparatus should be kept away
from the edges to prevent any peculiar
slant Of the wind carrying into the fun
mel larger proportion Of rain than
would fall into It under normal condi-
tlons. The larger the aperture of the
receiving funnel Is made the more ac-
curate will be the results obtained.
A curious fact that has been noted in
connection with rainfalls Is that gauges
placed on roofs usually gather less wa.
ter than those placed on the ground
This is accounted for on the theory that
the rain in falling absorbs some of the
moisture Of the air. and the greater dis
tance It falls the larger will be the
bulk OF the individual drops. - New
York Herald.
