At length they saw lit the distance a small village, and very soon they were passing over the roofs of the houses. The people were so astonished at the strange sight- that they all men, women, and children ran out to see it, and cried to each other: "Look! look! behold a miracle! Two ducks supporting a turtle! Was ever such a thing known before The ducka flew steadily on, heeding nothing of the commotion below; but not so the turtle. At first he kept silence, as he had been bidden to do, but at length the clamor below proved too much for him, and he began to think that every one was envying him the power of traveling through the air. In an evil moment he forgot the promises he had made so solemnly, and opened his mouth to reply, but before be could utter word he was rushing so swiftly through the Mr that he quickly became unconscious, and in this was dashed to pieces against the side of a house.

Then the ducks let fall after him the stick that had held up their friend, and whjch was of no further use. Sadly they looked at each other and shook their "We feared it would end so," said they, "yet perhaps he was right after all. Certainly this death waa better than the one which awaited him."

To these were soon added four extra hose wagons, four ladder trucks and the new fireboat David Campbell. The west half of the structure was enveloped In thick black smoke swept back by a northwest breeze.

Around the steel pillars the flames wrapped themselves and consumed the paint. Owing to the danger from smoke and flying embers all navigation on the river was ordered stopped. While Patrolman Ed Burke was keeping the crowd back from the danger line he stumbled over a section of hose and fell to the ground, striking his head on a railroad tie, cutting a deep gash in his head. Three of the small weights piled on the upper deck of the bridge plunged through the weakened timbers and dropped on the lower deck of the bridge within a few feet of where the firemen were at work. The weight of the weights was 300 pounds each.

The boat, manned by a short handed crew, was maneuvering for a position, and the pilot, blinded by the thick smoke, collided with the bridge. The boat was able to direct streams from the after and side nossles. Due to the fact that the lower span Could not bs operated It waa not possible to run the boat to the north side of the burning structure, where the blase could have been fought to much greater advantage. In this connection numbers of people derneath appeared to have warped. All the electrical connections were virtually out of commission.

little lesl water in the lake, an the ducks' favorite swimming place, where they could dive the deepest, grew shallower and shallower. At length there came -aW morning-' when the ducks looked at each other uneasily, and before nightfall they had whispered that If at the end of two days rain had not come ttfey must fly away and seek a new home. Earnestly they watched the sky for many hours, but not the tiniest cloud was to be seen. when the morning they made up their minds that they must go and tell the turtle of their plana, and bid him farewell. They found him comfortably curl up on a pile of dead' rushes, more than "half asleep, for he was old and could not venture out in the heat as he once least.

Now, when the ducka saw how ardently the turtle wished to accompany them their I hearts were touched, and they swam out Into the lake to consult together: At length they returned side by side.

"We hope we have found a plan that may do for you," said the big duck gravely, "but we must warn you that.

I "How it la possible that I should not follow your directions -when my i life and happiness are at stake?" asked i the turtle joyfully.
