HIS WATCH IN oABLE sLoT.
The singular Accident That Befeli "a
Cincinnati Man.


Cincinnati Man.
singular incident is related in
connection with mishap which hap
lened to DR.. J. r. Know while max
ng a professional call in Avondale re-
emily. In dismounting from the car
n Rockdale avenue the doctor did not
wait until il came to a full stop, but
'ndeavored to step from the running
BOARD while the car was still in mo-
ion. In some manner his foot was
,aught and he was thrown headlong
INTO the street The car crew was
yoon beside him, and after the doc
or was placed upon his feet, he an
1ounced that he was unhurt, and re
.ired to a corner drug store to remove
he dirt and dust from his clothing
and prepare to continue on his way
20 see his patient. The doctor missed
his glasses. These, singularly, were
'ound a few feet from where the doc
or had fallen, unbroken. He then
proceeded to the house of his patient
Before leaving his patient, he went
through the usual form of taking the
pulse. and, when he reached into his
pocket for his watch, he found 1t gone.
The timepiece is very valuable one
and the doctor hastened back to where
he accident had befallen him, and
made inquiries as to whether or not
il had been found. No one had seen
t. The doctor proceeded to look about
Tor the timepiece, in the cutters, and
about the street, and every available
aiding place was searched in vain.
Many of his friends also assisted The
doctor was about to conclude the
search when he thought he would look
into the cable slot. For some distance
the slot was followed. and, to the
great astonishment of the doctor, the
watch was finally located about forty
feet away from where he had fallen.
An attache of the cable company was
secured and the watch recovered.
Strangely enough, its only damage
was few dirt and greese spots and a
cracked crystal. The only explanation
tor the singular incident is that in
falling the watch was thrown from his
pocket and rolled to the cable slot into
which it dropped and was carried into
where 1t was found by the action of
the cable.-Cincinnati Commercial.

below the surface. Fresh water found
its way to this extensive salt deposit.
with the result that the salt dissolved
like snow. a huge subterranean lake
of water, charged with 26 per cent OF
salt was thus formed. Pumping en-
gines were then installed to convey
this brine to the surface to large evap-
Grating pans in which heavy deposit
of salt was left after the water had
eyaporated. The result of this exten-
sive pumping is that Northwich now
rests, as it were. upon shell of earth
which at times proves insufficient to
support the weight of the houses. with
the inevitable consequences that the
buildings are constantly sliding and
collapsing in every direction. As the
result of a subsistence one building fell
over upon its back in the course of a
single night, and it is noteworthy that
the house. owing to the care observed
in its construction fell over intact. not
a crack being produced in the walls nor
even pane of glass being broken.
