Tremendous Downward Plunge From a
Hotel Window.
Mr.. w. ). ROby, a merchant of Seguin,
who came in last night and stopped at
the Southern hotel, no doubt wishes he
hadn't to-day. He came in TO his room
late last night in a somewhat intoxicated
condition. His room was No. &c, second
floor, fronting north, and with win
dow looking down on the back yard of
Mr.. Kinahan's place of business.
Early this morning, about $50 O'Clock,
an officer on duty on Military plaza hook
ing up saw a mans legs hanging out OF
the window. As he started to go to the
hotel to inform them to take their guest
in, his horror was indesCribable at seeing
the body of a man follow the legs out of
the window and fall to the ground be-
low, distance of over 60 feet. He ran
to the foot of the wall and found that
the mans fall had been partly broken by
his striking long table and some boards
which we're piled just below the window.
Had Ii not been, on this fact, the man
would undoubtedly have been killed. as
it was he escaped with only severe
shaking up, broken jaw and several
teeth knocked out. He was removed to
Santa Rosa hospital and DR.. Amos
Graves attended him. When the door
OF room 80 was forced open this morning
it was found that Roby had forgotten to
turn out the gas when he retired and ii
was still burning. lie had evidently sat
in the window for some time before he
dropped asleep. and dropping asleep,
fell forward out Of the window.
