Built Upon the Sand
Tho main building nt the Swift
Packing plant Is sinking down nt one

cracks In tho comont foundation.
Work has stopped on Its construc
tion and workmen aru busy with tho
aid of uumorous Jacks in nn nttompt
to ralso it up. riling had been drivel
Into tho ground to a depth of 30
foot and u solid bed of cement U
foot deep had boon placed thereon as
11 foundation and It was thought by
tho Bwlft engineers to bo substan
tial enough to easily austalu tho
wolght of tho structuro, but It sooms
that a body of quick sand underlies
the foundation, and It may yot bo
necessary to seek a rock bottom be
fore tho sinking process can bo
stayed. It Is unfortunato that tho
building was not placed on firmer
ground In tho first Instance, ns much
tlmo will bo lost and a groater ox

structuro will bo placed In a safo and
socuro condition.

ticklly not Franking tho bono.

When tho machinery was stopped
It had gono through tho rolls clour

turned n llttlo longer tho girl's life
.vould probably hnvu been forfeited.
So great was tho pressure upon
tho flesh of llii' arm that tho tleevu
of tho girl's droLs was split open.
Her cries brought sovcral em
ployes to her rescue and tho ma

A Sad Affair
A sad drowning accident occurred
nt Portland Saturday ovonlng. Mor
rill Llndsoy, n young man agod "t
years, was seated upon tho ond of n
log fishing, when Louis Jacobson aud
Bister Gladys, tho formor aged 11
years aud tho lattor SI years, camo
down to vlblt him and both stoppod
upon tho log at tho samo tlmo. Thu
log turned and throw all thrco Into
tho wator. Potor Wrinkle a compan
ion of Mr. Llndsoy, was upon tho
ahoro and ho nt onco camo to tho
rescuo. and succeeded after a des
perate effort In saving tho lad, but
tho othor two sank and wero lost.
Tho mother of tho llttlo girl wit
nessed the accident from tho bunk,
and was almost crazed with grief.
Rates Reduced
A fact that may not bo genorally
known la that Insurance rates in St.
Johns aro llttlo more than half what
tl.nu u'tirf. n rnnnln nf Ynnrs llOIlCO.
This is owing to our 'splendid wator
system and our "Johnny on tho spot
tiro department. There Is no deny-
Ing tho fact that St. Johns has n
flro department that many larger
cities would bo only too glad to own.
Their record in the past counts for
much with Insurance companies, and
coupled with a good water supply
It was only natural that Insurance
rates should bo greatly roduced.
