Just as the last rays of the setting sun were gilding the church spires and. whitewashing the back kitchens of Detroit the other afternoon, a man and a barrel were discovered at a stairway en Monroe avenue. He was a small man and it was a big barrel, and pedestrians who saw him looking up the stairs and back at the barrel inferred that it was his intention to elevate ib to the third story. But how ¥ “Jd rig a tackle and pulley im that, third story window,” said the first man whe halted. ‘That's your easiest way, and there’s no danger of ac éident.” He leaned against the lamp-post to calculate on the length of rope and the lifting pewer required, and along eame'a second man, who took in tke situation at a glance, and said : “Go and get some scantlings feur- teen feet long, and lay ‘em on the stairs. Then two men can roll that barrel up there as slick as grease.” The little man looked around in a helpless sort of a way, and a third man came blustering up, and called out + “Want to get that barrel up stairs, eh? Well, now, fasten your palley at the head of the stairs, and ten men dewn here can snake the barrel up in no time. Where’s your tackle?’ By this time the crowd had in- creased to twenty, and was pretty evenly divided between a dead lift through one of the front windows and a pulley at the top ef the stairs; but the man who suggested the skids had a very loud voice, and was determined to carry his poimt. Taking off his coat, he said ; “J know what I’m talking about, and I say that [ can skid that barrel up there alone. You just wait a min: ute.” . He crossed the street to an unfin- ished building and returned with a eouple of 2x4 scantlings and laid them on the stairs, and the crowd now num- bered fifty. “You want this barrel on the third floor, do you?’ he asked of the little man. “¥es—but—bat “But what}? “Why, I was waiting for my wife to get the clothes-horse out of the upper hall’ She's all ready now, and Ill take it up.” And the little man shouldered the barrel and trotted briskly up stairs between the skids.
