On Perch eco Feet in Air.
From the New York World.


The attention of all Park Row was
directed Friday afternoon to a man
who was standing on top OF the mast
of steel derrick being placed in posi-
ton on the Park Row section of the
Tribune building. He stood there-30R
feet above the ground-with nothing
around him but atmosphere. Although
his perch was only eighteen inches
square, he reacehd down to attach the
guy rope as fearlessly as If he had
been standing in the center of Broad
way.
The mast of the derrick is ninety feet
long, with steel boom seventy-five
feet in length. Both are in four sec
tons, and were moved from the new
addition of the building Friday to what
was the tenth floor of the old structure,
on which there is also gong to be AM
addition. The derrick weighs eight
tons.
Among the men employed ON the.
work is Gus Johnson, an expert rigger.t

been bolted together and raised in the

Johnson was sent aloft. He climbed
nimbly up the side and when he

and not of men, and that I have no
right at my mere will to prohibit any
thing. I see no reason to get excited
at all. The people most excited seem

ers Of my own will to do what you

We have nothing to blame one another

A tear stole down. her cheek.
And while you wrote letters fun Of love
to a strange girl you thought of becoming
engaged to me"
He smiled.
"One does not generally marry a girl
whom one meets in such an unconven-
tional maner."
He also was pale. The clock struck half
past eleven: in ten minutes the carriages
would be there
Tell me now, are you not happy that
you are going to marry your ideal?"
She shook her head.
My ideal does no longer exist. Twice I
have loved you-first as the gifted, bril-
the true, honest and faithful man. Now
know that you are neither. All is a
blank to me now"
She said no more and 1t was quiet, pain
fully quiet in the room.
Suddenly he threw his arms around her.
She tried to tear herself loose, but could
not.
Come, let US 60" he whispered In her,
ear, ''let the past bury it's dead. We have

Her head sank down upon his shoulder,
her eyes closed under his kisses. but her
inner eyes were open and It grew lighter
and brighter She saw before her the
world where ideals disappear and are swal-
lowed up in an ocean of vague feelings
the world of truth.
Outside the wedding bells were ringing.
She lifted her face towards him radiantly
happy.
Come" she said, IT believe that I can
believe in you once more"
He smiled and led her to her carriage
which was waiting.
