such a severe fall yesterday, is doing as
well as could be expected. DIR. Wilson,
the attending physician, is affording the

the arm, being SCATTERING of the bone,
i5 serious matter, however. A word OF
caution to youngsters is not out OF place
here. We have noticed several lately
swinging on loose ropes on the wreck OF
the old schooner Alfred. Such half rot
ten rigging should be cut away orlasheu

first port for repairs and entailed enor-
nous expense upon the owners and I'M
derwriters.
