For incredible Time.
In . farmhouse In one OF the New

On seeking for its origin, the physi
clan found that some old cotton quilts
laid away in the garnet Tor years, had
recently been taken down and aired
and put to use by the family. These

antique secretary that had not been
opened for years. In 1t they found
tresses of hair that had been cut from
the head OF children who had died
twenty years before OF scarlet fever
In a few days they were both stricken
with this dread disease. The ease

vIADUCT MAY FALL.
Sixth Avenue Structure Again in Dan
gerOus Condition.

The sulphuric fumes from passing
locomotives of the Santa Fe have af-
fected the iron work of the East Sixth
avenue viaduct so that it has started
to disintegrate.
The iron brackets which support
the walks on either side of the viaduct
are reported to be rusted by the action
of the fumes and are about to give
way.
The iron Orders running across I'M
derneath the body of the viaduct are
also in bad shape. The process of dis
indignation is most marked in the cen
ter of the structure where the switch
tracks concentrate and where the To-
comotives- pass back and forth most
frequently
So dangerous has become the con-
dition of the iron bracket supports to
the sidewalks that James McCabe, city
engineer, says that there is imminent
danger of an accident occurring to
pedestrians.
1--WE are going to make an inspection
of the viaduct today" said Mr.. Nc
Cabe. Mr.. Ramsey, the street COM
missioner, and myself will make the
inspection. The viaduct is in bad con-
dftion. The frame girders have rotted
so that they won't hold the nails of the
planking any more. They will have to
be turned and maybe new planking
bought From the looks of things we
will have to ref1oor the whole viaduct.
This will cost in the neighborhoOd Of
$4,000 The iron work is in bad shape,
too. The sulphur fumes from the To-
comotives have rusted the iron brack-
cts and the rest of the iron work until
1t bids fair to have to be renewed. The
iron brackets are in a bad way: they
have rusted so that there is danger to
anyone walking on the sidewalk. The
brackets will have to be renewed. The
rest of the iron work is not in such
bad shape.
1.-The city made a big mistake when
they built the Viaduct and didn't in
sist On the railroad help bearing the
expense Of maintenance. In reality
they should have built the viaduct
themselves. It gave them additional
switching room. for they can run back
and fourth there now without paying
any attention to people crossing and it
also lessons the chance of damage suits
and accidents which would be apt to
haDDen il the viaduct was not there"
The viaduct is about the nearest ap-
proach to a white elephant which the
city has got. When there isn't any
drain on the city at any place it's down
on East Sixth avenue fixing up the
viaduct and keeping it from falling
into ruins. Last summer the city spent
$500 in an attempt to repair the floor
ing.
