BREEZE TIPS WAGON OVER.
Repair Outfit OF Utah Light & Rail
way Co. Capsized by Wind.

The worst prank to the discredit or
credit of the March winds so far is
the one played a few days ago right
in the center of the heart of the busl-
ness district The high platform
wagon of the Utah Light & Railway
was standing on the corner of Main
and First South streets with a work
man perched on its top A driver sat
on the seat holding the big horses.
The workman whistled as he worked
with the wires overhead. and all was
serene.
But all of a sudden n strong breeze
turned the corner and over went the
high wagon. The wind caught the
platform just right 20 lift the whole
apparatus from the wheels for just an
instant but long enough to overhaul
ance IT, The man on top clutched TO
the tipping tower, but had presence
OF mind enough to stay with It, This
ali happened IL less time than 1t takes
TO tell 1t, and in a couple of seconds
the wagon lay on its side Within a
few feet Of the ground the man on
top slid off ana scrambled to a place
of SAFETY. Had he jumped from the
top at the first signal Of danger he
might have sustained bad bruises in
striking the pavement below and had
he been stunned or malmed in the
jump he would have had the whole
structure fall upon him.
The horses kept their feet but box
es of iron were scattered and emptled
all over the corner In topping over
the wagon fell across the street car
tracks and all traffic via Main street
was at standstill. Car crews and by
ISLANDERS took hold on long ropes and
soon had the wagon back on it's
feet--wheels. The horses were re-
hitched and when tools and material
We're gathered, the days work was
