Now he was allowed to have n OF
the corners all to himself for his con-
trivance. The week after hat they
laid off two men, Challoner now was
doing the work of three men. In fact,
from that time he and his machine
were made the pace-makers for the en-
tire line of workmen.
The boss was jubilant.
"Gee! / guess Wen get this job done
on time after ALL" he was heard to
say. Il thought for a while the old
man was in for a few fines sure
= Nobody else tried Challoner's device;
robody else knew how to use it. In a
way, that was a satisfaction to him. 1t
was a toy, something that he had Great
ed to tighten his labors. On the other
hand he found hat in his eagerness he
labored three times as hard as before;
besides, he was even better at the work
than the Italians who knew it, had be-
come accustomed to it, and who were
better fitted for it. And yet, there was
nothing wonderful in this contrivance
of his. But Challoner was convinced
that If. sometime, he could induce the
BOSS to put IL into constant operation II
would save that gentleman a great deal
of money. Nor did it ever enter Chal-
loner's head to nave it patented. It's
principle was hat of the lever. and. of
course, even If he had tried, he could
not have obtained a patent. In no way
was there a dollar in it.
But" he told himself, 'if ever l &c
into this concrete business, I shall in
sist upon its use. AS a business" he
| went on, what can be more profitable
than concrete? 1t produces a wall az
solid as a rock and as ndestructible
as observation-disclosures receive five and
six dollars a day-and brick costs
money. But this sand, cement, stone
and unskilled labor !" Challoner
could see millions in 1t!
Meanwhile, he was useful at two ans
a half dollars a day. AS we nave seen,
they had made him a pace-maker
now, they determined to put his brain
to work for, them; 1t became his duty
to direct the mixing-gaing at his end
of the new store.
Don't forget, now, watch out" said
the superintendent, taking him aside.
$50 many barrels of cement, so many
barrels of sand, and so much stone,
Now say it as I told you"
And Challoner repeated for him: sc
many barrels of cement, so many bar
rels of sand, and so much stone. But
when he was again alone he said halt

Challoner little knew.
The very first day that he watched
the mixing process he discovered that

forth to the end of time.
So it turned out hat Challoner was
discharged for doing the thing the fore
man was guilty of doing. At the time
he had little thought of resentment.
1t is true that he might have "~peached"
on the foreman, complained to the head
superintendent and got them to test
the walls with a testing-hammef. But
it was too late. besides. he knew now
that the head superintendent was
tarred with the same stick.
After this incident, Challoner culti-
waited a habit Of ~strolling into the offices
of the various dealers In the city.
"What are the proper conerste pro-
p%ortions?" was his request in all of
them.
Charts were taken out and consulted.
There was no difference of opinion; all
agreed that the head superintendent
figures were out of the way, and by one

Graft! There was no doubt about it
in his mind; and he proceeded to figure
but just where the trouble lay. on that

eral mixers. On every mixing the head
superintendent made one barrel of
cement. There were several foremen.

A few more experiences of this sort,

with the wonderful results obtained by

dazzle owners about to build.
From day to day, Challoner could see
the demand for concrete increasing. He
saw. too, that the price of brick was
falling off, because concrete had awak-

people, had aroused their enthusiasm

DEAD GOVERNORS

Newark Physician Pays High
Tribute to Skill of Mime
sofa Medical Men.

DR.. John f. Hagerty, of 80 Wallace
place, was in Rochester, Mimi, on his
vacation at the time Governor John A.
Johnson, of Minnesota, died at st.

DIR. William j. ~Motzenbecker, his

and surgical ability of Drs. William j.
and Charles H. Mayo, the two men
who worked so hard to ave Governor
Johnson's life.
DR.. Hagerty did not witness n of
stlie operations performed on Governor
fJohnson, but he did witness a number
1of other operations performed by the
two surgeons and speaks in unstinted
praise of their work. st. Mary's Hos

Recognized as one of the best in the
United States.
Its history is rather a unique one.
About twenty years ago a terrific
cyclone swept over Rochester, then a
struggling little village. Practically
every building in the town, except the

to the needs of the injured and gained
high renown and praise for their good
work.

bishop of Minnesota decided to turn

auspices of the Little Sisters of the

adDr. Hagerty witnessed thirty-six
operations during his stay at Rochester
and every one was successful. 1t Is
understood that Governor Johnson's
case was practically hopeless from the
time he entered the hospital, but DR..
J.. Mayo, who was in immediate
charge, never gave up the fight and
worked with a hope of success right to
the last minute.

turned to their roomsEthey nae three
now-fguratively speaking, they had
cement for breakfast and for supper.
But it was his business now and his
whole mind was concentrated upon it.
And in all this there vas a singular
and valuable fact: Challoner was the
only mar in town-literauy the only
man. because of the circumstances of
the c~ase-outside Of the contractors,
who knew the business. and yet who
had intelligence enough to understand
the danger in concrete. Naturally, the
contractors did not tell owners about
graft. They did not warn their Gus.
toners; they took chances; and need
less to say, the owners themselves did
not know.
.Challoner was quick to seize his OPP
p%ortunity; besides, he was conscious
that a duty rested upon him. Day and
night he scanned the papers. and when
he found a concrete contract recorded
he looked up the owner, saw him per-
sonally and told him facts. OF course,
most of this was done at night and on
holidays.
You don't a SOL the owner would
respond, opening wide his eyes,
But Challoner mentioned no names;
he merely outlined conditions. Some
contractors, he acknowledged, were
honest, perhaps most of them, but many
We're careless. And then the foremen
on these jobs un~questionably were
poorly paid. Surely the temptations
were great.
You don't say so,' the owner would
repeat.
And when the job started, this owner
would put a competent man on to ver
see 1t. Frequently it happened that
this man was j. l.. Challoner. The time
came when he made five dollars a day.
Moreover, the time came when many
of the good concrete walls In town
owed their strength to him. :
But even though his time was full,
and money was plentiful, 1t did not in
terfere with Challoner's interest in the
evolution of concrete and concrete
graft; nor was he slow to recognize its
value to politicians; and SO when the
"ring"-for there vas still q ring In
spite of the efforts of Murgatroyd-
sprang its little SURPRISE. Challoner
knew what was coming.
"A new concrete hospital" said the
ring" and saw in 1t the thin edge of
the wedge, for they foresaw a new con-
crete jail. Possibly they could go still
further; II they educate the people UP
to 1t, they might have more new con
crete city buildings.
However, the new concrete hospital
came first. 1t was one-third finished
when j. L. Challoner applied for. and
secured a job as foreman Of the mix
ing-gang on the east wing. The mer
who employed him did not know him;
II they had. they would have dismissed
him at once.

that the hospital was being built chiefly
