owners in following the dead wagon
became blanched. Eyes that glittered
with excitement became eyes in which
only fear was expressed, and limbs that
carried their owners for blocks at top

And there was reason for this quiver-

fearful expression III the eyes of the
crowd From out the black wagon came
t1ncanny sounds, sounds strange to the
ear and yet familiar. From a safe dis

appear badly injured at first and was
able to continue his business for many
months, but according to evidence
given in the case, he experienced a re-
markable change of disposition. From
a jovial and kind man, he became mo-

spirits. About year and half after
the accident GaNan became seriously
i'll and died four days later. Physi-
clans who performed an autopsy testi-
fled that death was due to a rupture OF
the heart, which was indirectly due to
the shock and injuries received in the

of those at Versailles. The fountain
consists of a single jet that leaps from

euRaEhY on a cAIMNEX.
American Engineer Attained Fame for
UNIQUE Feat.


Joseph II. Gerhard recently re-
ceived from Egypt a letter asking
him what method he used IN straight
ening the immense chimney Of the
Nnrragansett Brewing company last
fall Mr.. Gerhard is the Providence
engineer who was called in to restore
the leaning chimney to plumb. The
Egyptian government building inspec-
tor wrote that a tower under con-
structlon in Cairo was settling in
much the same way and he wanted
to know how to save II.
The engineer explained that he had
constructed huge steel levers, with
concrete foundations, on one side Of
the chimney and had cut away a num-
Der of bricks on the other side. Then
he drove kerosene-soaked wooden
wedges into the opening made by re-
moving the bricks and set them aflre.
While the wedges were burning the
levers forced the chimney back to its
original upright position, and when it
had reached absolute plumb the fire
was extlnguished and the cavity was
filed with concrete.
