T INDAUNTED by a fall Of three
stories which sent him to a
hospital, Joe Bonner, IRON
~ worker, is back again at his
old job Of riveting on the new
Post Office Department-only now he
is working higher up.
As a matter of fact, when Joe and his
riveting crew were discovered today he
was perched on scaffold at the roof
line of the building. hammering away
at white-hote rivets which will hold the
topmost steel roof beams in place.
Stopping the rat-tat-tat of his own
hammer, to answer questions. Joe shout
ed at the top of his voice to be heard
above the rattle and din of construc-
tion work. including the noise iof other
riveting crews.
No, he didn't mind going back up to
the high places, even if he had taken a
hard fall. He dropped, about two weeks
ago from a scaffold. when the scaffold
slipped He fell about three stories
down to the temporary board floor
which had been laid across from beam
to beam. He was taken to the hospital,
but was found to have no serious
injuries.
Joe made light of his fall of three sto-
ries only got scratched and bruised
Bit" he grinned. No, he would never
fall from another scaffold. nor would
another scaffold slip from beneath him.
He feels plenty confident about that.
He swung back to work One Of his
partners, Gus Seeman, who had just
caught in a conical can flying white
hot rivet pitched from two floors below,
seized the sizzling rivet in tongs, pushed
it through the holes in two pieces of
steel Another partner of the crew,
Bob Patterson, known as the quicker
up" placed a heavy steel bar against
one end of the rivet. Joe put the ham
mer on the other end of the rivet and
the rat-a-tat started all over again. the

morning by two well-dreSSed young
hold-up men, who robbed him of S61 in
cash and watch and chain valued at
$50 in his drug store at 1916 New
Hampshire avenue.
While one of the bandits was taping
Diegelmans hands and feet in the
prescription laboratory in the rear OF
the pharmacy, his companion waited on
a customer so efficiently and courteously
that the man went away without
suspecting a hold-up was in progress.
Nor did it occur to a colored janitor,
sweeping the sidewalk in front of the
store. that anything unusual was going
on inside.
Diegelnan, whose store was ransacked
several weeks ago by burglars who
escaped with approximately $50, had
just opened for business when the
robbers entered.

it from the shelf. When I turned
around with the tape, one of the bandits
had me covered with revolver. 4

wriggle loose from his bonds, his clerk,
Stanley Herb, 1901 Monroe street, re-
ported for work
"Of course, the gun made me kind Of
nervous" Diegelman said, but the thing
that bothered me most of all was my

SUMMER TROLLEY
TRAFFIC WASLOW
Worst Decline in History
Recorded for 1882 in
New England
July SLUMP WORST

From the viewpoint of decline in
traffic as compared with the pre-
ceding year street transit cofnpan-
les in New England have this year
been through their most serious
summer in history, according to
traffic statistics compiled by the
American Transit association. Troll
ley and bus riding reached its low
est mark during the month Of July
when prevailing conditions and ex-
ira holidays combined to bring. the
total traffic on the thirteen major
street car lines in New England to
a point 1886 per cent below the
figure of the same month in 1891. ,
The decline is not as bad as,
would appear from the figures,
however, as calendar conditions
initiated very seriously against the
1882 month, as the slightly i'm
proved August riding data shows.
In the first place, there were five
Sundays in July, 1882. as against
four Sundays in July, 1881. Even
more important than this was the
fact that Independence day, July 4,
fell on a Monday this year. The U.s.
ual practice of shutting down on
the Saturday before Monday hol-
iday, particularly in the summer
months, was followed by a great
many business houses and the re-
suit was almost the same as If there
had been two holidays. in the
month in addition to the extra Sum
day.. IT, ,---' .-----
These calendar conditions are
not in themselves enough to ac-
count for all of the decrease in
July. The regional districts where
the greatest losses were sustained
were the New England states the
northwestern states and the domin-
ion Of Canada. In Canada, Domin-
ion day, celebrated July /, fell on
Friday, so the holiday condition
was similar to that in the United
States.
