will be more geese along the CO.

Flimsy Affair Crashes to the
Floor with 75 Persons.
NOT ONE SERIOUSLY INJURED
Mad Rush OF Parents Takes
Place Upon Hearing Cries
OF Children and Oroans
OF Breaking TImbers.,

The sudden breaking down
and crash Of the .'nigger
heaven, q flimsy ladder arrange
ment used for emergency in case
of a crowded house, was the
cause of the fall Of about rs per-
sons, mostly children of tender
years, at the Armory hall Satur-
day night. SO great was the
strain upon these seats that eve
ming. aided by the stamping Of
impatient children waiting for
the curtain 10 be drawn on Ten
Nights in Bar Room" that the
timbers tore loose from their
moorings on the wall and its
load of humanity went down
to the floor with great crash,
mingled with the groan Of
breaking timbers and screams
of frightened children. Upon
the outbreak Of the first noise
every one in the other parts of
the hall seemed to know the
source of the trouble and a rush
was made for the back part Of
the hall, mothers and fathers rum
ming to the aid of their children.
1t was only the presence Of mind
of a few who held these in check
until the mass of humanity could
be Strengthened out. Upon being
reassured that no one was ser
iously injured. all became calm
and regained their seats. The
children were more frightened
than hurt and many of the
smaller ones cried as if their
hearts would break. A little
girl was picked up in q fainting
condition but soon recovered
upon being taken out in the
fresh air. Several others re-
ceived small bruises.
That no one was hurt is a fact
that all are thankful for and it
| is doubtful whether such ac-
cidents could again occur with
out resulting in some serious or
fatal injury. Although many
had been heard to say before the
accident happened that they
feared the affair would go down
sometime, yet none really thought
the time had come. The fact
that 'nigger heaven" had been
crowded every evening during
the past week reassured many,
and the evening of the accident
the hall was crowded to such an
extent that all available seating
room was at a premium and the
ladders overtaxed until a single
person could not have found a
place to sit. The weight was
tremendous for such a fiimsy
affair.
This accident will bring to
the minds of the people Of Con-
don that this city has outgrown
the present quarters where all
entertainments must be held and
that Condor is in dire need of a
better and larger hall. Every
one in this city is fond Of enter
Itainments of some sort and these
can only be secured where there
lis a proper place to present them
to advantage. AS was seen
during the past week the house
was crowded every evening and
when it came to the last evening,
showing special attraction,
many had to be turned away. II

someone to erect a spacious and

 Mir. Morris Selz of the SelZ Schwartz Shoe Co. has through Lesueur-iibbons &. O., offered the school as many medals as can be used.
