its progress was a matter of great in.
terest to the people of the region. A
farmer who sold provisions to the con-
tractors often reached the place where
the men were at work at mealtime.
He was greatly impressed at their
voracity. The work was hard, and
when the dinner bell rang every man
made dash for the table, and before
one could believe 1t possible the food
had disappeared.
One day workman on his way to
the table tripped on the root of a tree
and fell, He lay quite still, making no
attempt to rise.
The farmer rushed to him in great
concern.
"Are you badly hurt?" he asked.

SINGING Wires.


Sometimes when a tempest is raging
telegraph wires are silent, while in
time of calm they are sonorous. Evil
dently the vibration of the wires is not
due to atmospherical agitation alone.
A scientist Of Berlin who studied the
cause of the singing of wires in time
Of calm concludes that the vibration
Of the wires always presages the ap-
proach Of bad weather When the
sounds are deep the change of weather
may be looked for within two days.
When they are shrill or sharp the
storm will come within a very few
hours. 1t is difficult to determine the
cause Of the singing. An Italian scien-
tist calls 1t Seismic agitation produced
by barometric depression and trans
mitted to the wires by the telegraph
poles. ."-Harper's Weekly.
