AN AWFUL FALL.
A Carpenter PIunges Down Three
Stories to Sidewalk.

William Hull, carpenter, employed by
Cutting q Bishop, contractors, fell from
the third story OF the new Kent d
Stanley building, at the corner of Aborn
and Sabin streets, at $50 o'clock
this morning, and sustained severe
injuries. Hull was working on
the third floor and was dragging a plank
across an elevator well. In some way he
backed into the opening and shot
down the shaft. In his descent he struck
against the iron braces at the sides of the
we'll, lacerating his scalp in a terrible
manner. On the first floor Hull
fell partly across one of the
braces and was caught by workmen
&. Il. Taylor and Angelo st. Peter
who were working on this floor. The
ambulance was summoned and Hull
was taken to the hospital. The extent
of his injuries are not fully known.
Besides the terrible laceration of the
scalp Hull's tongue was bitten
almost off. There were also
several cuts and bruises on his arms and
body. Internal injuries of serious
nature are also feared.
The victim Of the accident lives at 70
Julian street.

EASTERN LEAGUE.
The Grays Cantered Around the
League Leaders.


League Leaders.
The Grays defeated the Wilkesbarres at
Adelaide Park yesterday to1. The home
club put up an excellent game. cracking
Garfield for 10 hits, including a two and
a three bagger, while their fielding, with
the exception OF avid throw by Bassett
and the tumble of long running fly by
Knight, was perfect.
The Wilkesbar had an error day,
three being made in the first half Of the
first inning, and others at intervals dur
ing the game, MacMahon alone making
total of three. To add to the defeat of the
visitors they were unable to hit Rudder-
ham. Seven singles represented the
work at the bat. Ten long flies were COB
led by the Gray outfielders, all chances
being accepted. Lyons was all over the
lot.
Rudderham's pitching was much better
than usual, McAuley held the ball with
ease and the general support was perfect.
For Wilkesbarre, however, the outfielders
were the only men who played up to the
mark. Briefly told the Grays hit the ball
and Wilkesbarre juggled 1t and that's
how Providence easily trounced the lead
ers. The score:

Society last evening, Socrates Scholfeld.
read q paper on Analytic Biology. The
purpose was to show the analogy
which exists between mechanical self
governing machines aud the animal
and human organisms i'm order TO arrive
at an understanding of the latter i'm accord
with the latest scientific expositions.
Drawings and blackboard illustrations
were used.
The structure Of the human brain was
shown and its connections with the nerve
system. II was explained that there was
no visible connection between incoming
signals from sensory neyves and outgoing
motor nerves, and that here was the point
where an intervening governing me-
chanism" could exist which in finally
leaving the body left the remainder in
operative.
Explanation was made OF the make up
OF all matter from molecules, which do
not touch each other and are always in
motion, and the "indivisible atom" com
ing from the universal ether, which
latter fills all space. IL is now be-
lieved that ultimate matter (the ether)
exists, in all probability, in the
form OF the smoke ring. This ring now,
produced for experimental purposes, will
retain its form and continue its move
ments under various attempts TO disrup-
ture IL, and when two rings meet one will
enlarge its diameter to admit the passage
OF the other, the first then returning to
its noIplal shape.
When the opening OF the box from
which these smoke rings are forced is
covered at little distance with the finest
gauze wire the ring passes through II
intact. This analogy suggests that the
controlling medium in the brain-the soul
principle-thus passes outward.

HOPPER IN PANJANDRUM.
A Splendid Performance In Providence
Opera House.


Once in while, with long intervals in
between, Providence is treated to a met
ropolitan show with the full strength of a
New York company. New York companies
have been announced before, but nothing
much beyond the announcement ever ma
terialized. We get the second best gener-
ally. Last evening was delightful novelty
and the great difference between the real
and assumed was appreciated by one OF
the finest audience the Providence
Opera House ever held. IL was the
fag-end of the season, but the perfor-
nance was one of the most satisfactory
and entertaining seen this season. The fame
of DE Wolf Hopper and his accomplished
company OF merry makers was not un-
known to Providence and when he curtain
rose Oh "Panjandrum" four boxes held
company and no vacant seats were in view.
And it was an appreciative audience. 1t
was tickled all the time and there was
plenty of tickling material "Panjandrum"
was written Tor Hopper and his coterie OF
singers and players and its various
changes and opportunities are utilized to
the fullest extent. Besides this the effective
scenery, gorgeous trappings and costumes
used in New York were paraded here with
stunning effect. Panjandrum" is
very good name for the work
which Is nothing in particular
but smart dialogue and slightly tableaux
with plenty of good chorus singing and
individual and collective melody.
The great central figure OF
course Is Hopper, and Hopper would be
immensely entertaining in anything. lie
is big and funny with a splendid
voice, equally as effective in
speaking as in singing. As vocalist he
is an unqualified success. Indeed, the
big comedians prime feature of surpass-
ing strength Is his voice. He gets
quite as much comedy effect with 1t rs
with anything he possesses not failing to
remember his very talented legs.
Hopper is unique in the comic opera
burlesque field. Next to him in
last evenings performance was Edna
Wallace Hopper, a mite OF femininity who
grabbed the affections OF the audience
at once. She can sing and dance and
talk piquantly and be altogether
charming. Other accomplished MEM
bers of the company are
Edward Stanley, George Fawcett, Alfred
Klein, Grace Golden, and Helen Beres-
ford, the latter being good singer.
A stunning part of the bill was
the wonderful dancing - Hattie Wells.
Indeed there was no "out' about the
whole performance. 'Panjandrum" will
be presented again this afternoon and
evening.

There was considerable excitement and
lots OF fun on Monday evening in
Pawtuxet for a short time when some
half dozen boatmen and fisher
men were chasing big porpoise which
had lost its way and got up TO the head of
the cove. The porpoise when in shotl
water got very excited and tapped bis
tail strong enough TO capsize any of the
boats which were after him. When al
most exhausted, having been harpooned
by Lon Crandall number of times, the
porpoise fiipped up on TO Gorton's
boathouse wharf where he was
captured by Charles Gorton and
Walter Case. He was dubbed to death.
His length lacked just one inch of being
seven feet and his weight was estimated
at being about 800 pounds.
