CRUSHED IN THE HOLD.

4 LonEshoreman Seriously Injured by a
Falling Block of Ice While at Work
on a Vessel,
A 3O0-pOund block Of ice came near
winding up the existence of a longshOre-
man working with Smith Il Kelly's gang
at the KnickerbOcker Ice COmpany's
wharf yesterday. The schooner Mary L,
Allen, loaded with ice, is lying at the
wharf discharging her cargo. The ice is
lifted from the hold of the vessel by a
pulley to a staging extending from the
second story Of the ice house out
over the vessel. AS a 300
pound block was being hauled up
Yesterday afternoon it caught I'M
der the end OF the staging, and was
either torn loose from the graphing
hooks, or the rope lOOsing the hooks was
pulled too soon, and it fell back, striking
the combing of the matches and breaking
of one corner, then dropping into the hold.
4 cOIOred lOngshOreman, named Thomas
Thompson, was looking up from where ne
was at work, and saw the falling block and
lodged, but not soon enough to save him.
self. The ice struck his left leg, crushing
it below the knee, and grinding the
bone and flesh together in a mass. He was
taken on deck and removed in wagon to
st. JOseph's Infirmary. where physicians
were summoned to attend him. The
heavy weight OF the ice completely
mashed the member it struck, and almost
tore off the lower part of it. 1t was mir
aculOuslY narrow escape for the negro
from almost instant death, for had the
ice struck him on the head or upper part
Of the body It would have doubtless
killed him instantly. After being re-
moved to the infiTmaTy DR.. Nichols amDu-

The First Night of Miss Nellie Pieree's
New PIay-The FOrds Surprise Their
Leading Ladies.
The FOrds' Opera House was filed last
night with one Of the largest and most in
telligent audiences Of the season to wit
ness the first presentation of Miss Nellie
Pierce's new play, =" o. P. B.; or, Mixed"
Miss Pierce and Miss Chambers have be-
come universal favorites with the Savan-
nah public, and the audience upon their
benefit night was an evidence that its ap-
preciauOn Of their efforts IS sincere.
The play Is similar in character to
Freaks" ssBunch Of Keys and skip
by the Light Of the MOOn.' 1t is intended
10 take its place among the light farcical
comedies that have made the public
laugh and have filed the pockets Of clear
sighted, far-seeing managers, who have
successfully grasped the public's way

would reveal its lmperfectIons.
No work is above criticism. The class
Of PLAYS which this seeks 70 enter is
particularly susceptible Of dissection. 1t
is not so much the play as it is the play
ers that makes the hit. Bunch Of Keys"
one OF the greatest successes on the farci-
cal stage, would be nothing without the
action Of the play. The action
last night was slow. This was due no
doubt to insufficient rehearsal, and to the
fact that iC was the first night. The sue
cess Of no play can be measured by its
first presentation. The material that
Miss Pierce has brought together IS good
but it needs construction. The plot mas
already been given in the MORNING
News. Nearly the entire strength Of the

consequence of this it necessarily moved
slower than il would under other circum-
stances. The audience was enthusiastic,
and the young authOress has much with
which to be gratifed.
At the end Of the first act the curtain
was rolled up almost soon as it dropped.
The audience was wondering what was
TO come, when Col. ]. II. Estill, Presl-
dent Of the association, stepped upon the
stage and called Miss Pierce and Miss
Chambers forward to the lights. Both
ladies were taken wholly unawares, and
were surprised that they should be
called upon. In a brief speech Col. Estill-
| in behalf Of the association, presented
| Miss Chambers with a beautiful silver
card case. bearing the inscription, ''Au-
gusta Chambers. From the FOrds," and
| Miss Pierce with pair OF silver bangle
/ bracelets. each bangle bearing the name
Of a member Of the association. The pre-
sentatiOn was "A genuine surprise-sO
| complete that the ladies were unable
| for a moment to respond in accept
| ance OF the gifts, which had been
| given them as souvenirs Of their sum
| mer's engagement. After recovering from
| their surprise Miss Pierce responded very
| gracefully in acceptance Of the beautiful
| gift. and was followed by Miss Chambers
Both ladies retired amid applause.
