MunsOn's Mistake.

Andrew Monsoon. VINO works
in the car department at the de-
pot under Addison Conrieht, is
of an inventive turn of mind.
He is just now interested in jap.
auese wood burning. and in or
der to make things more couven-
lent he constructed an air tank
large enough to hold air for the
whole evening and seemingly
had it to perfection, aud it only
needed to be tested with 4 good
pressure. This he proceeded to
do. and attaching the pump,
gradually worked up the pres
sure, the machine taking kindly
to the test until 1t had reached
$50 ID. PRESSURE, when the thing
thought 1t had enough, and it let
go in an explosion. The tank
went up through the roof of Con-
rights Office. and Monson was
seen to 90 several feet IN the air,
but whether he was badly hurt
or only killed is not known, as he
has not been seen since-at least
around the railroad yards-tho'
the boys are %anxiously waiting
his return. @. G.. e.
