The well which has been the centre of interest of the whole. countryside for three days is situated on a farm tmanted by Mr. George SCOtt, near lit-amide. It ,is an old well and was 86 feet deep and lined with bricks, set in cement. No water was being which controls the farm entered into an agreement with John Hendemon as Son, well drillers of Bramchtdn, to drill it until a. supply of water was secured. Sanford was placed in diarge of the drill, and he succeeded in driving a pipe down a distance of 158 feet from the surface. In carry- ing on- this work it was noticed that the drill passed through a. quicksand formation, but at the depth mention- ed a boulder was encountered, and. it was decided to drill again in a, new place. An attempt was then made to secure the iron casing that had been driven into the earth, and in the efiort to secure it the casing parted. Sanford on Tuesday after- noon last was lowered to the bottom of the well to investigate the break and also to ascertain if the indica- tions for further drilling; were favor- able. At that time the first cave-in The well which has been of interest of the whole.< for three days is situated tenanted by Mr. George S lit-amide. It is an old we 86 feet deep and lined w or about forty feet from the surface, the stout walls of the well colla’peed. WALLS FORMED AN ARCH It is evident that the walls fell in sections and formed an arch, the bricks being securely held together by the cement, and remaining firm under the weight of earth above. The walls directly underneath the man must have undergone a. like, change, and in the chamber thus formed Sanford lay for almost three days. The iron pipe had withstood the shock of the land- slide. however, and it was through this medium that the imprisoned man first made it known at the surface that he was still alive. The iron pipe is four inches in diameter and is set‘ in a five-inch casing. It is believed that the break in the casing mentioned was at the spot where the occurred. The man noticed a wood- en casing at the bottom of the shaft sinking, and signalled to be drawn to the top, but when half way up, PAGE TEN )le flocked to the place and will- bands undertook the taSk of his ase. This was attemptbd by ;ing another well alongside the one. This was cribbed up as , as it Was sunk, to prevent its ing in also. Work went-on stead- till Thursday at midnight. Writ- at that hour the Globe corres- dent thus describes What Was go- the bricks of the well is re i natural cell formed above Sanford. Through the opening between the . pipe and the casing , he obtained air. and has until todaybeen able to ‘ hear voices at the top of the shaft. The tremendous elicrts made to res- . cue him which followed his rapping . on this pipe have already been desâ€" . cribed. Mr. John Penman 0! Paris ‘ assumed control of this work and ‘ secured the services of Mr. '1‘. Harry ‘ J oneS, City Engineer of Brantiord, who brought with him a ioreman and several gangs of sewermen an'd carpenters. Well-diggers and labor- ers were selected from volunteers for the work from Paris. Physicians were in constant attendance,‘ ready to administer medical aid when the man was taken from the earth. under the direCtionv of Mr. Jones. A well similar to the first was sunk close beside it. Thiashaft was sewrely cribbed to prevent a repetition of the cave-in and in it the well-dimers labored without ceaSing, the carpen- ters providing the crib foot by foot. A CODE OF SIGNALS Dr. W. W. Patterson of Paris dis- covered that his voice could be dis- tinctly heard by the entombed man. and he arranged a code of signals for him to reply ; three taps on the pipe to represent yes, two taps for no, and one tap "I don't know.” By‘ this means Sanford directed the} operations of the party, and as he could. hear the spade of the welldl diggers he tried to tell the distance that they were from him. When Dr. Patterson asked him it he had plenâ€" ty of air he answered "yes,” and he estimated by giving sixty taps on the pipe that he was that many feet from the surface. At 11 o’clock this morning the second well had been sunk fifty feet and Saniord sig- nalled that he believed the rescue party to be below him. A tunnel from the second to the first well was decided upon, and when this news came up the shaft, the crowd be- came wildly excited. Word was sent to the young man’s mother that he would be saved. ~ A SECOND CAVE-IN The greatest care was exercised in ‘ the very critical work at extending ' the tunnel. but at the moment when j the workers thought that at last they had won the prize they had fought so fiercely {or the treacherous quicksand opened, and with a dull mmlfle the old well shot downim'dis- ‘ tance of seven feet. Sickened with ‘ the belief that death must have come > to the brave men. the crowd turned . away from the spot and the well- diggers came to the sun-thee. It was then 48 hours since Sanford had been enlt‘ombed. John Mott. the oldest of the drillers, was the one man Who did not give up hope. He tapped repeatedly on the pipe. but although he, and {his friends waited with bated breath the silence at denth was the only reply. Slowly the crowd filed ”NW. and from noon until 3 o'clock only watchmen waited by the well. SANFORD STILL ALIVE Shortly after 3 ol'clock one of the men descended the second well for “tools. and as he was leaving a. faint sound of rapping came from the other shaft. and. hardly waiting to confirm his hope. the man summoned his comrades and they also heard the rapping. Word was sent to Paris, and within slew minutes hundreds of men and women were being driven to the scene. The gangs of men re- turned to their task. and it was found that even better communica- tion could be had with Sanford. The theory put forward to account for the imprisoned man's escaping iron being crushed to death in the second slide is that the brick and cement cylinder did not collapse, but simply sank or settled down, the greater de- pression of earth being where the weight was greatest, namely, out- side the bricks, and‘ the entombed man’s position was thus practically unchanged. He was lying on his back and was partially covered with sand and bricks. As the air rushed in through the hole he swooned away, and reâ€" mained in an unconscious condition for nearly half an hour. The amaz- ing vitality of the man showed itself, however, and with returning con- sciousness he assisted actively in the work at his own rescue. The exciteâ€" The work progressed and soon the second entrance into the well was accomplished. The first one had been made below the prisoner.

But tackle it; don’t waste time.- The Globe of Saturday continued the wonderful story of the man in the well and said in part of Friâ€" day's operations : Sam'ord’s voice was still aiding the workers in keep- ing them informed of his exact where- abouts, but his words had little meaning, for his mind was wander- ing. Carefully and slowly the open- ing was enlarged and the substan- tial timber supports inserted. The workers knew that the slightest dis- turqance of the earth would mean not only the destruction of Sanford but of themselves; The movement of a shovel of earth might at any moment percipitate the descent of tons of quicksand.

Sanford, when he had recovered partial con- sciousness, asked Engineer Jones as to his whereabouts, and when told he was still in the well he seemed to realize his posi‘tion, and used his arms, which were free, to assist in the remoVal of the bricks.

Sanford was in a sitting posture and was entirely free. with the ex- ception of his right leg, which Was firmly wedged between the pipe and a pile of boards and brick. The men in the shaft had been unable to re- move this obstruction. and Sanford had worked at it himself until his strength had given way. To reach this pile of bricks the deepening of the lower tunnel would be necessary, and to do this meant grave danger that not only Sanford. but (be men in the shaft would be engulfed. San. ford’s father and sisters dealnred that they could not ask such a sac- rifice, and asked that the imprmoned man try again to aid himself, but weakened by the eflor't already made, Sanford had fallen asleep. Sanford. who was lying with his head and shoulders in the tunnel, then voluntarily drew back into the well, and, being handed a stout crow- bar, began the task of freeing him- self. His strength was not equal to it, however, and, although one of the workers offered to enter the old well with him, permission was not grant- ed on the ground that it was only en- dangering his life. Sanford then be- gan again, and he and the rescuing party alternately used the crow’bar. Little progress was made. and the same condition existed an hour after midnight. While working Sanford talked freely and showed that he knew absolutely nothing of the cave- in on Thursday, in which he evident- ly received the blows which rendered him insensible. The father of the im- prisoned man, Elizah Sanford. arriv- ed in the neighborhood after an ab- sence of years, and, finding the farm, insisted in taking his place at the head of the shaft frOm which he re- fused to be moved. Two sisters of Sanford also arrived this morning, both in a condition verging on ner- vous prostration. They are waiting in the Scott farm house for news of the success of the rescuing opera- tions.

' CAME UP ON THE ROPES Sanford was taker. from the dark hole in the earth literally imbedded in sand. The tiny particles had been driven so far into the flesh that was exposed that the physicians say poul- tices have been necessary to give re- lief. He was perfectly conscioud, al- though much wrought up when. rite:- a somewhat perilous trip through the lower tunnel. he reached the shaft from which his rescuers had worked for days. He knew from converse,- tions with the m that a great Sanford, however, was not out of the hole. It was deemed unsafe to endeavor to lift him to the upper tunnel, so a rope was passed around his body, and the men at the top of the shaft were told to ease slightly on the line when the order was given. Then Hamilton at the upper tunnel and Comic at the lower reached through and guided the tnr:\'¢-'-ncnt of Sanford while his body was slowly lowered until his head was on a leV- el with his feet, and then he was li‘lt ed through the” lower tunnel without disturbing a handful 0! send. This flats and Caps ”l! i don't get that water tell the doctor I'll come up for it." he said. Only once did his spirits fail him, and that was when he slipped a few inches back into the hole. Several ropes has been passed around his body, and the attempt to pull him away from the obstruction by main force was made. This failed, and when Sanford felt himself going back be weakened a bit. George Blan- chard said that he would go through the tunnel into the well and lift away the obstruction. Sanford reâ€" fused to hear of this. One man in the well was enough, he said. THE RESCUE Carm'e found that directly under- neath the first tunnel there was a bed of sharp, dry sand, excellent for this purpose. About three feet be- low this excavation the sand was ta- ken out and a casim put in till the well was reached. The bricks which formed' the lining of the well were standing end on end, and the entire pile which were supporting Sanford was so fragile that the workmen were exceedingly careful in disturbing any part of it. Fortunately, however, thb pile was found to have a found- ation of a bed of gravel, the debris, by a lucky accident, having appar- ently caught on this projection and formed a bed for Sanford when the landslide occurred. By means of scantling inserted through the lower tunnel, and shored up with ropes,the pile was sustained while Carnie re- moved the bricks one by one, hand- ling them as if they were bird ’3 eggs. Within two hours the foot was free. worth. Wllllun 'l‘homplon. John Soolo Mid Thoma numb. HE JOKE!) WITH WORKERS Suntan-d wu compustlvoly way. He had plenty o! d! and mu bet"; ted roman-1y but.
