During a temporary lull in 4i, ....irk nf nnttinir nn the sniderlike 41117 m " . o r spokes of this wheel, a man was observed to clamber up in tne mass ot uiuoc surrounding the base of the superstruct ure. He was at first supposed to be a workman, and no special attention was paid him. Presently, however, he clam bered out on one or tne lower Bpuaca. The superintendent of construction, catching sight of him, asked what he wanted up tliere. ine auventurex made no response, but continued his as .it mrnrkinff his way inside the urinlwrv with catlike agility. The superintendent ordered him down. The only answer ne got was u. myn il.in tn nmA and fetch him. He kept on climbing, and where the periphery has not been placed ne nan to siiuouowu the big spokes until he reached the chan nel irons. Crossing on these to the next spoke, he worked out to the periphery, aud proceeded as before. By this time quite a crown uau gathered, watching the progress of this a foiinw 1-111 f.vt. from the oTonnd. He was repeatedly warned to look out for himself, but snowed nimseii aounu nti nliln tn do an. Finally he reached the the highest point, and, standing at full length, gave an exulting yen, wmuii was answered by a group of friends near the volcano building. Of course he came down the other way, and tuns made the first revolution of the great Firth wheel. On reaching the ground he disclosed his identity, and was recog nized as a sailor and rigger, ne saia ne had made the trip to settle a bet that he would make the first tnp around tnis mvint. rntnrv eonstmction.
