windwill doctor came up on Sunday but
refused to ascend tho tower which is not
surprising when it is remembered that
from this very tower that gentleman step
ped through the manhole and after making
two complete summersaults lit on the
ground fifty feet below, breaking a leg
and the wonder is that he did not break
his neck. This happened some two or
three years ago, but the time is not so far
removed but that tho gentleman has a
very vivid recollection of at least one im
portant episode in his life. Other work
