 1 People were very much excited over
 wire that foll from the poles on l Grand street yesterday and nobody could be found to touch it until one of lA0 AluSlAuil SulltC dlOhS. AdlhihS opout the matter later a man who has been
 at that business for years said that ii
 is a safe plan to suspect that every l wire is charged with electricity and 1 then one never will make mistake He also stated that there was no dan l ger in pushing a live wire to one side l with a stick or board and if handled 1 properly one would run no risk in 1 picking 1t up in the tail of his coat l taking good care not to let it touch 1 the body. The safest thing to handle
 a live wire with is a rubber glove, but 1 the gentleman would advise people
 not to touch them with rubber
 or anything else unless they find ii
 really necessary.
