Pillar Just Refuses to
Be Moved From Spot

Years ago the bricklayers knew
HOW to build brick walls-that, at
least, is the opinion of the workmen
who are dismantling the old open
hearth furnaces at the Pennsylvania
Steel Company's plant here to make
room for Improvements.
Bright and nearly yesterday a gang
of foreigners armed with picks at
tackled one of the pillars that sup
ported an old furnace. The foreign
ers swung their picks hard, but not a
brick moved. The foreman in charge
urged more force back OF the blows,
but not a brick even budged. Then
he cussed-gently, of course, as all
foremen do-and the blows were re-
doubled; but no use.
An engineer happened along and
suggested dynamite. The worlmen
We're called off and heavy charge
of the explosive was placed beneath
the pillar. 1t exploded with a shock
that shook the town. A shower of dirt
and debris followed the explosion
but the pillar still stood. In despera-
ton the engineer in charged called for
a shifting engine and long woven
wire cable. One end of this cable,
an inch thick, was placed around the
pillar and the other end was attached
to the engine. The engine pulled the
cable taut, then jerked it-no bulge
and jerked again.
Swish! Zip! and the cable tore.
Another stouter one was secured, fas-
tened to pillar and engine. When
work stopped last evening the engine
was still putting and snorting ng--but the
pillar still stood.
