Parties on tho hill who were looking
toward tho Standard Oil warehouse,
about low tide Friday, were surprised at
noticing a eudden agitation of the whole

as ia from the impact of some heavy
body, Presently a portion of the flat
was Eeen to partially separate Itself from
the rest, and take the eemblanco of a
man's form. Then people were seen
putting down a plank from the wharf
above, and up this inclino tho mud
mnnBter crawled, finally standing re
vealed as what was once T, 15. Dow.

that Mr. Dow had income envious ol his
wlfo'a ability to rirto a bicycle, and bor
rowing a wheel of his ran, F. H.. ho
essayed tho task of conquering its pecu
liaritiea. Ho declined Mra. Dow'a
assistance, on the ground that ho could
Uarn better by himself. Ho soon
learned to etay on to euch good
effect that when tho wheel started to
ward the edge of tho wharf and refused
to turn, he couldn't get off, hut rode
plump over the edge and eomo 10 feet
down to the flat below.
Fortunately he struck whoro it didn't
hurt,hut the amount of mud ho brought
away has not been measured,
