Over in the State capitol yes
terday afternoon, just before the
general assembly adjourned sine

made the nany people fp the
main lobby turn their heads away
In horror, aRd for a fsw moments
soeaed to root each spectator to
the floor. A cracking noise in
the ceiling, abeut fifty feet above
the heads of those in the lobby,
made them look up in time to see
one of the panels give way and
the body Of half grown girl
shsot downward. Fortunately,
it was the last panel next tho wall
of the library, and twenty feet
below was tas marrow gallery that
runs about the lobby. On this
the girl landed as if by miracle.
Had the balcony not caught her
she would have gone on to tho
marble door bslsu and would
have unquestionably been instant
ly killed. Those who first got to
her side found that the victim was
Miss Marie Moscklon, the IL
ysar-old daughter Of Mr.. W. N.
Aenckton. She was apparently
dead. The form was picked up
tendsrly and taken around the
balcony to the room Of Clerk
Hssphill, while Senator Williams,
who is = physician, fastened to
hsr side, and DR.. Wannamaker
was gotten by 'phono. Her father
was slss summoned by telephone.
The girl soon revived, however,
and seemed to suffer considerably.
The physicians made careful
examination al soon as possible
and gave the welcome informa>
tion that no homes were broken
and tho ehila's skull eemsd un-
injured. There was no indication
OF internal injuries, and it i, hs.
llsvsd that the girl will quickly
recover from the shSck an,, the
bruises sustained.
The young lady was with some
friends, starting to make the
