Crapples Pit Bar
and Burns Hand

Toalmage Rose. wnoi is fireman
at the S. F. power house, is suf-
fering from a badly burnt hand.
1t seems that during the noon
hour a relief fireman had used
the Pit bar and had left the hot
portion foremost. Mr.. Rose
grappled the bar in the usual
manner but the intense heat
rendered the muscles mate and
he was unable to release his
grip. 1t is not thought that he
will lose the use of his hand.
