us with giant hands, and doing it
well; but it demands to be fed with
profit, and its hunger is Unsuitable.
AT times a cold horror creeps over us
as we see its fingers feeling where
our children play.
1.-THE corporation, which is fast be-

Child Blown from Elevated Station
Platform.

A wind that sprang out of the
northwest just before noon at New
York yesterday and tore between the
downtown skyscrapers at a velocity
that at one time reached 70 miles an
hour, played pitch and toss with light
movable articles in its path all over
the city and suburbs. Several per.
sons were hit and severely injured
by flying objects.
Freaks of the gale. which resulted
in injuries to pedestrians ranged
from blowing barrels off high roofs
of new buildings to tearing signs
from fastenings over the sidewalks
In Brooklyn a child was blown from
an elevated railroad platform to the
tracks but though cut and bruised
escaped harm from the third rail and
was rescued before an approaching
train reached the station. Plate glass
windows were smashed in all direct
ions.
