THOMSON The hundreds of Pullman people who recently paid their 15 cents to gaze on the alleged "petrified man" on display in the white brick build ing at Main and Grand streets, ob served, instead of a sure-enough human being turned to stone, a very clever Imitation of the real article, according to Prof. F. A. Thomson, formerly head of the mining depart ment at the Slate College, who was permitted to take samples of the "man" for analysis. Prof. Thomson examined the particles of composi tion under a powerful microscope and found them to be solid concrete of a very fine and well finished nature. l! is presumed that tho cast of the man was taken with plaster of Paris or some other composition and filled with the concrete, the alleged very clever imitation resulting.
