LEAP OUT FROM
BIG QUICKSAND
Two Men Escape Trap Of
Many Acres
A PECULIAR SITUATION
caisson Swallowed UP, the Work at
Brattlcboro Halts-Engineers Are
Finding the Sewer Problem
Battling.

Brattleboro, July l0.-The collapse
yesterday Of long excavation on Ner-
non street and the engulhng Of a caisson,
with the narrow escape Of workmen,
have convinced the engineers that this
whole section, probably many acres IN
extent, is underlaid with a quieksand
Of unusual proportions.
The problem Of abolishing the nuisance
tof broken sewer on Vernon street,
which was ordered by the state board Of
health, assumed new phase Friday,
when the settling Of a oaiss0n into N
feet Of quieksand near the old bank Of
the Connecticut river made Il neces-
sary to abandon the scheme 10 construct
a standpipe and carry the South Main
street sewage into the Connecticut river
as was formerly done before the build
ing Of the big dam at Vernon set back
the water.
For a number Of days. workmen had
been constructing a crib eight feet square.
A steel caisson about three feet in diam
eter was being driven down. The pipe
settled three feet during the first night
and the presence Of quickssnd was
recognized.
But before any attempt could be made
70 sustain the sagging line oi sewer, the
eaisson sank aud the crib, which was ~
feet deep, became boiling pot of quick
sand and water. william pcntland jr,,
plumber, and Thomas Lynch had mar
row escapes.
Investigation showed il was not FEAST
bic to rescue the caisson or carry out
the project.
Yesterday morning men were digging
ditch near the factory Of the White
River Chair company 500 feet from the
frat caisson, to empty the South Man
street sewer into this old line With an
hydruuiic aphon.
Arrangements were made about noon
yesterday e test 200 or 900 feet Of sew
er. when the ditch that had been crihbed
suddenly eaved ii.

Old and Tried Art OF kissing?
From the Baltimore Sun

Why d. people kiss? The
act itsel is ridiculous asa spec.
'tacle and unsatisfylng as an
amusement. Its sole physical
accompaniment is a feeling OF
suiEocaJion, and OH the psychic
side it is frequently embarrass-
ing, particularly, if an unsus-
|pected audience reveals itself,
say, by satire whoops and cat
calls. 1t has none of the charm
OF other pleasures, such as sol
feggio, eating and AUTOMOBILE
ing, for example. Kissing will
neither baiid up the anaemic
nor soothe the neurasthenic.
But still it thrives, and no
jeremiads on its perils will ever
work its abolition. The man
who makes a practice of kiss
sing the fair sex is a man at
tracted rather than repelied by
danger. He knows that every
kiss he steals is full of fearful
hazards. The girl herself may
black his eye, stab him with a
hatpin or call for the police and
then again she may choose to
regard his idle favor as an offer
OF marriage and accept him be-
fore he can escape Yetagain,
her father Or brothers, detect
ing him with his arm around
her neck and his eyes gazing
into her forehead, may rush in
and hail him as a relative,
touching him for small loans,
ealing him by his first name
and Selling extensively upon all
the other familiarities which
|relatives-in-law affect. Finally
| the mother of the gill may knit
him pulse-warmers ard send
him amateur remedies for his
rheumatism and red nose, and
her little sisters may giggle
every time they see him.
