A Fatal Fall.

James DAILY, a mallable iron-worker
of Washington, fell from the caves of the
postofFce building in this city shortly
before moor today, and that he was not
killed outright seems miraculous. He
was engaged in the construction Of the
cornice around the west end of the
building when by mistep he fell, de-
scending about fifty feet, and landing
on a pile of scafIolding. Those who
witnessed the accident fastened to his
assistance and as soon as possible he
was placed in mail wagon and con,
yeyed to the Alexandria Hospital and
Drs. Mcclure and Elliot summoned.
Strange TO say no limbs were broken,
but the unfortunate man was in dazed
condition from the terrific shock he
sustained. He died about two hours
after the accident.
