II Stilt Done.
One who should see n hod-hoisting1
muuhlne In use In a building under con
struction in the city might think that
the old-fashioned hod had quite gone
jut of use, but as u mutter of fnct, the
hod Is still far from obsolete. Of nil
the brlckb und niortnr put into build
lugs In the United States probably 60
per cent. Is Btlll curried to the mason
in hods borne on the shoulders of men.
In very large cities, in New York, for
instance, 76 per cent, of the bricks
and mortar 1b now hoisted by ele
vators; In small cities und in the
country 76 per cent, of such material
is still carried to where It is to be
used In hods. So that, while the ele
vator Is still steadily enconohlng upon
the hod, the hod Is still largely carried,
says the New York Sun.
Whether a hod-hoisting- machine
shall be used, and what sort of a ma
chine, depends of course upon the job.
On a one-story building, unywhoye,
the bricks would be carried up in the
old way, us they might be on the small
er two or three-story building'; but
here, on a building of any size, nfter
It has gone up n story there Is put
In n hoisting apparatus of some sort,
either hand or power. A hand holster
consists of a strap chain running
around' two pulleys, out below nnd the
other nbove, one of these being turned
by n crank." The hods used with this
apparatus have a hook on them. A
man fills a hod at the brick hilLln the
street and walks Into the building with
It nnd hooks It onto that chain, upon
which It Is slowly hoisted to where
the bricks nre to be used; the empty
hods being hooked to the chain on the
descending hide.
On some power hod elevators the
hods are hooked on a beam In a row
by the men who bring them in from
the street, nnd hoisted quickly up. and
the empties sent back. In the use of
some power elevators the bricks are
wheeled In from the btreet in barrows
to the elevator and then transferred
to the hods, which are hoisted up and
removed above, and sent back again
to be filled again In .the snme mnnner.
Here it will be obseived the hod Is
eliminated below. And in the use of
lome elevators bricks nre wheeled
right into the platform of the elevator
In barrows, nnd barrows and all are
hoisted- up nnd wheeled right up on
to the platform alongside the brick
layer. The 'empty wlieelbarrows are
sent down and pulled oft' the platform
and replucefl with tilled ones that the
men in the street were loading when
the others-were going1 up nnd coming
down. In this operation the hod is
eliminated nbove and below. All these
things nre determined by the character
aqd size of the job; the builder does
whatever can be done, to the best ad
vantage. And still with all the hoist
ing done nowadays there Is yet. as
has been seen, more or less hod car
rying done and the hod is Mill a reg
ulnr article ol manufacture and sale,
and is sold in considerable numbers.
The size of the hod. carried varies
somewhat with the region in which
it is used; thus the hod carried in this
city is a little smnller than that used
in New .Terspy and Long Island'. The
hod is made in three sizes, the small
est of the three for brick, the middle
size for mortar, and the largest for plas
ter; the mortar hods are made water
tight by pitching the senms. Hods used
with hod-hoisting apparatus nre made
a little smaller than those thnt are
hand carried. Hods are still most com
monly mnde of wood, but thero is made
nowadays, also, a steel hod. This is
a western invention, fftul is more com
monly used in the west thnn in the
enst.
The hod carrier of to-day is an Ital
ian, nnd n hard worker; but hod car
rying, commonly exercised now with
in narrower limits thnn formerly, ia
not the art that it once was. Thirty,
forty, fifty years ugo, though he has
now far outgrown hod carrying, the
hod enrrier wns everywhere an Irish
man; a picturesque figure of whom
many pictures were mnde, nnd about
whom many tilings, intended to be hu
morous, were written. But he was a
sturdy, able man, nil the same, and not
without skill in his calling; and it re
quired some skill, and1 training in tho
work to enable a man to climb, with
a hod on his shoulder, tho ladder they
mounted in those days, when the ma
son called down from nbove:
"More mortl"
And it was n sight worth seeing, a
string of stalwart men, each with a
hod on his shoulder, at equal distances
apart on the ladder, and climbing in
ceaseless and unwenrying movement,
nnd all in step, up tho face of some
tnll building. There is an old, old story
nbout a hod carrier who, mounting sky
ward on a hlx-story building which was
nearly finished', struck the level of the
sixth story scaffolding just ns the
clock in a neighboring steeple began
to strike the noon hour, 12. It might
be supposed thnt tho hod enrrier would
hove stepped around tho sidcpleee of
the ladder, one stop, oid set the hod
down on the scaffolding, but no; at the
first stroke of the bell, as tho story
goes he limply iel go of tha handle1
.nnd then ctftrttd himself, down the
ladder
Nothing" of thnt sort could hftpppti

true, otit the glory of hod.cnrrylng hrtu

SCIENCE NOT BENEFITED.
A Ili'iiautlo Tent That Win IlruiiKlit
to NutiKlit l- a Small Field
Mouhc.
"One of the queerest experiences of
my whole career, und I've had lots of
cm," said a well-known theatrical ad
vance agent who was in town a few
days ago, relates the New Orleans
Times-Democrat, "happened in tho
fall of 1890, when I was acting aa
business manager, press boomer,
ticket taker and llnr-ln-ordinary for
n hypnotist who was making a tour
of the small towns in southern Illi
nois, Indiana and Ohio,
"The procssor was a pretty smooth
old fakir, but his show was lacking
in novelty, and we were trying dcB
pcrotely to think up sotno sensation
al feature when wo encountered a
chap named O'Brien, who was a pro
fessional 'horse' for mesmerists. A
'horse 1h stage siting for u rcndy-inndc
subject, who submits to nil sorts of
tests, nnd UiIb fellow suggested thnt
we stir up a littlo excitement by
burying him nlive. Of course, tho
dodge is old now, but it was fresh
then, and we stnrtcd at once to put
it into execution. We were at a
bustling town -on the Ohio river nt
the time, nnd wo announced thnt on
such and such a day Prof. would
throw a man into n trance, nail him
up in n coffln and bury him eight
feet deep, where he would remain for
48 hours. The disinterment and open
ing of the ensket at the opera house
were events on which we depended
to draw a huge crowd. The whole
affair wns dubbed 'the grcnt East In
dian hj-pnotic trance test,' and O'Brien
figured ns a wealthy traveler who had
consented to Bubmlt to the ordeal
'purely in the interest of science.'
"Of course, thero were nny number
of details that had to be arranged,"
continued the agent, "but the burial
finally camo off according to pro
gramme. Long practice at what is
called tho 'sleep test' made it com
paratively easy for O'Brien to lie
quiet for a couple of days and dangeij
from suffocation was avoided by a
three-inch wooden tube, which con
nected the coffin with the outer air.
The affair created immense excite
ment in the vicinity, and we easily
persuaded a dozen notoriously hungry
citizens to act as a 'committee' to
watch the grave by shifts, and see
that no food or stimulants were passed
down the tube, and, needless to stiy.
tho whole town camo out to keep them
company. Folks talked in awed whis
pers of the unconscious mnn lying
down' there in tho cold, dark ground;
a number of prominent physicians
certified to tho genuineness of the
trance. Everything was pointing to
a tremendous success, when just at
dusk the first day a frightful mishap
occurred.
"A small field mouse darted sud
denly out of the grass, mude two or
three bewildering dashes, and fell
headlong into the wooden air tube.
At the next instant the most awful,
blosd-freczlng, inhuman howl ever
heard by mortal curs isHiicd out of
the bowels of the earth. Even to me,
who knew O'Brien was wide awake
and in no peril whatever, the yell
was deeply horrifying, while the ef
fect upon others may possibly be
imagined, but never adequately de
scribed. Women fainted and men be
came hyb-terical, and nil the while
those hideous bh ricks kept pouring
swiftly out of tho tube. .
"wen, to nittKo a long story sliort,
a Bhovel brigade was organized, and
in less than ten minutes O'Brien wan
reached nnd hauled out. He was then
In a state of limp collapse, but ho had
strength enough to denounce tho test
ns a fako and declared that we hod
Inveigled him into it by taking advan
tage 'of his poverty. When ho got
that far along the professor and f
quietly slipped nwny and left town
unostentatiously on a freight. The.
crowd was certainly in lynching tem
per. What happened to O'Brien wos
merely a break-down of Tierve. He
wob wrought up to a high pitch any
how, and the mouso landing suddenly
on his neck drovo him insane with
pnriic for tho time being. That epi
sode resulted in the passage of or
dinances prohibiting tho burial test
in scores of northern cities."
