JOSEPH HECKEL

Joseph Hackel(sic) who was yesterday afternoon engaged in digging a sewer trench was buried under about three feet of sand by a cave-in. He was dug out just in time to save him from suffocation. It took lively work to uncover his head in time to save his life. His face was black and he was gasping when released, but a few moments exposure to the air made him as well as ever and he walked home smiling over his narrow escape. He was standing up when the cave-in took place and it did not take long to uncover his head so that he could breath, but had he been stooping over he would have probably been suffocated when dug out. It was a “close call” as it was.
