avenues. Brooklyn. have watched the
gradually increasing size of a mud
hole in the center Of the street, says
the New York Times. Recently its
diameter has approached 30 feet.
Yesterday afternoon Hans Schmidt
was driving pensively through the
street making his afternoon deliveries
from his grocery wagon. Through the
center of the puddle he drove. He
stopped. Looking up he found that
the horse and wagon were gradually
sinking.
WAS list los: Was fst los?" he
shouted to the horse.
But the intelligent animal continued
to sink deeper and deeper into the
mire. Soon his legs had vanished and
the wagons wheels were buried be-
yond the hubs.
"Es list an earthquake. yes," sighed
Hans.
The head and back of the horse were
soon the only parts of the animal visit
BILE, the wagon kept pace with the
horses depression. Hans got out Of
the wagon and stood disconsolateIy on
an island of horseback.
"Marooned you are. that's certain"
cried voice from across the street,
and John Macdonald, a resident of the.
neighborhood, stepped cautiously 10.

to sink at once rapidly. Hans danced
