wind was still high; but this morning
while the carpenters, some fifteen in

almost finished, about o'clock eight
cen benches fell with a tremendous
crash, and four men came to the
ground with the heavy timbers. Their

of this city; they were all seriously in
jured, and Pagan and Duvan are
speechless, and not expected to live
through the day.

the abdomen of Beatty, inhicting a

that there was cartridge in the
weapon. ..t
