W. J. McCann, foreman for. the Irving avenue crew that is laying the water mains for W. D.

McCann hit the earth first, the falling part of the distance and being caught on a jack, where it was wedged and supended long enough for McCann to recover from the shock of his fall and get from under. The pipe was subsequently lowered and no one was injured outside of McCann, who was shaken up quite severely but not otherwise harmed. LOCAL HAPPENINGS Try our “India Sun Dried” teas, 50c a pound.
