formers by the force of circumstances
and they do not always relish their me-
teoric dash into the limellght. Some
times the climax of their histrionic career
spells fms TO their earthly existence.
Happily the amusing and unusual in
cidents greatly outnumber the mishaps
and fatalities, and the individual with
funny bone or humorous tendency need
never lack for entertainment
The attractions of the street involve
the whole gamut of emotions, and class
and caste are alike ignored as prince and
pauper all meet upon common ground.
We all delight in the spectacle of some
one at work, fact shown by the UNI
diminished throng which stands in all
kinds of weather and suffers all sorts
of discomfort just to observe the progress
of an excavation for a building founda-
ton or the hosting into place of huge
iron girders or blocks OF stone in the con-
struction of some edifice.
\ stCne-crushing machine with its at
PENDANTS or steam shovel draws almost
as much attention as a dog fight. The
alarm bell of the fire engine, the clang
ing of the police patrol or emergency
ambulance attracts a crowd if by
magic. To see a fire people will tramp
endless squares and cheerfully get out of
their beds al night They will stand
hours watching the efforts of the fire
laddies and are only ready 10 go home
when the engines depart.
When an arrest is made the ever
curious crowd is always on hand. The
speeding chauffeur and the grimy pick
aninriy caught shooting crap occupy the
same positions in the eyes of the onlook-
ers. The more offensive the crime and
the more repuisive the sight the greater
the fascination, and the policeman with
his prisoner has an interested audience
until the patrol looms in sight and takes
charge of the party or until the station
house is reached.

" watched the intrepid steeplejack.
Charles Miller, on his lofty perch 315
feet from the ground.
This station. 200 feet above the roof OF
the Evans building. is the most re-
markable of it's kind in the world. The
nearest approach is a wooden steeple at
the Brooklyn navy yard, starting from
the ground and rising to height of 1871
feet. Here the steeple jack climbed on
the roof of building rs feet high and
then climbed 200 feet farther. The wires
were strung so that there would be moth
ing missed in the shape OF aerial COM
munications. The plans for the compile
ton included the placing, of an immense
arc light just five feet below the top of
the wireless pole or 1875 feet above the
roof. The iron pole was made up Of
twelve sections, the splicing of which
was done by Miller and was of absorb
ing interest to the crowds below. The
pole weighs three and one-half tons, and
is securely fastened to the steel beams
of the building. which run from the base
mont, and also at the corners of the
building r
The painting of flag poles is always
matter of keen inerest to the onlookers.
There is no end of speculation as to the
dangers of falling. and when the steeple
jack puts the final touches to the ball at
the top he is pretty sure to get a cheer
for his steady nerves and good luck.
While automobiles are so very common,
still they attract the curious. and let one
require any repairing and the man on the
ground underneath the machine will have
plenty of attention and numerous ques-
tons to answer. Auto accidents still
frequent enough to keep up certain fear
in the minds of those unused to them and
the scene of a wreck has its visitors, es-
pecially if any one is seriously injured or
killed.
Likewise a street car accident. if the
details are sufficiently grewsome and the
collision causes ample destruction.
Not long since a taxicab was completely
demolished by impact with moving
street car. 1t seemed as though every
splinter was counted and commented upon,
while in another part of the city poor
old huckSterS wagon was struck and
partly destroyed and his stock of pota-
toes. cabbages, eggs, apples. green's, etc.

However. there lay an immediate
remedy in sight for all this. They could

So stopping upon the quiet . pm. cor

resolution that they would swat, walop,

ginks they met.
1t didn't make the slightest difference,

minious wallops and things the first two

In one of the downtown sections an en-
terprising individual found an old discard

From the old darky's perpetual motion
machine out near the Georgetown bridge,
which occupied a vacant lot and was the
object of such widespread interest to
both Colored and white to the daily de-
parture and return OF the District chain
gang, there is enough human interest to
convert the worst msanthrope and the
most settled hermit to a different view OF
humanity. and to make him realize that
even al its worst the human family has
advantages over isolation and solitude
To the people who never knew Wash
ington in her days of horse cars the sight
of one of these old timers in side yard
of stately home excites quite little
curiosity 1t has been robbed of its
wheels and converted into a children's
playhouse.
Quite a pretty little story was woven
around statue of hunter which stands
in the yard beside one of the citys IRE
engine houses. According to the roman
tic story teller. the statue was erected 10
the memory of a fireman by his assoc
ciates and the figure of hunter was
chosen as a fitting memorial because II
was the expression of the pastime the
man had always craved and ENJOYED, nut

man was said to have lost MS NE III a
fire The real story seems to be trlhe
different. The statve vas one of the
relics of the ST. Louis exposition and was
sold among other curios for a very small
sum, and some of the tiremen desiring 10
beautify their yard, purchased 1t for that
purpose only.
The passing crowd hears there has been

street are the only bits of brightness IN

them it represents all OF the delights OF

is not surprising that they infuse INTO

coloring of imagery that turns every
farce into wonderful reality ana every
