No wonder you prefer to remain single

Herbert Halls domain with feeling
akin to envy. with so sumptuously
furnished and interesting a home, you
would be a fool to plunge into the I'M

Where singleness is bliss, tbs folly to
take wives.'
Herbert smiled YEARLY.

What's this? A glove, 1 declare. Was
this the gift of some Indian maiden, or

of a different kinda remembrance of
my only adventure worthy of the name!'
DO you mind telling me about it?'
Not at all; but you may not find it

ton Of the westerly terrace was so great
that 100 feet of the highest part of the
structure collapsed under the weight of
the crowd driven upon it, precipitating
the mass of people to the ground, sixty
feet below. The injured were piled in
heaps. Wedged in with broken wood.
Many Suffer Internal Injuries.
The onlookers hesitated to approach
the dangling structure at first, but final
ly began to utilize portions of the broken
barriers as stretchers. A hundred of the
more seriously injured were carried to
the pavilion and to spaces in the rear Of
the stands. A majority Of the victims
are suffering from broken ribs and frac-
tured limbs, while some sustained in
ternai injuries
Those most severely hurt were later re-
moved in ambulances to infrmaries and
other sufferers were sent in cabs to sur
geries Six Of the injured are not likely
to recover.
Up to midnight five deaths had been
reported as the result of the accident,
while in the cases of twenty of the other
victims all hope of recovery has been
abandoned.
An investigation into the causes of the
disaster shows that the breakdown of the
terrace had begun before the structure
was subjected to it's seyerest strain, and
it Is now believed that the Jnal collapse
was caused more directly by the efforts
of those nearest the first break than by
the additional weight Of those who rushed
upon the stand from below. The terrace
although supported by iron girders
swayed and cracked ominously under the
movements Of it's frantic occupants
Game Continues After Disaster.
The strangest feature of the affair is the
feet wide and contained y tiers Of seats.
The injured IN many cases were lying
five or six deep and u is considered mar
velous that there were not more fataI-
ties. One man hung by his boot, which
caught in a splintered beam, head down
ward, lfteey feet above the ground.
Finally his boot was cut and the man
dropped into a sheet held below.
The strangest feature of the affair is
fact that the crowd in the other parts
of the grounds failed entirely to realize
the extent of the disaster and the game
was played to a finish resulting in a
draw. Even the management appeared
to be unaware of the seriousness of the
accident until It was announced after the
conclusion of the game.
