Yesterday afternoon the venerable
w. 81. Gray, while mounted on a
scaffolding supported by trestles, to
do some work in his building at the
foot of Benton street missed his foot
ing and fell to the floor a distance of
some FIVE or six feet striking on his
shoulder, sustaining an intra capsu-
lar fracture of the humerus. There is
nothing numerous about this accident
for the old gentleman, though. He
should be more cautious at his ad-
vanced age and leave work On lofty
elevations to those who are younger
and will not break so easy. With
good care and caution the venerable
gentleman might live to pass his
hundreth birthday and entertain his
children's grand children and great
grand children with stories of his
pioneer life away back in the '30s.
The unfortunate old gentleman has
the sympathy of the entire commun-
ity during his painful and enforced
confinement.

obscurity on the bar yesterday. The
fall of rain was continuous and plen-
tiful and there was very little move
ment of shipping on the river, beside
the regular daily and nightly passen-
ger and freight boats.
