PLASTER Ceiling
IN Store FALLS
Display Racks Save Customers
From Injury BY Debris

Shoppers ran for their lives from
the Davis Co. store at 169 Main
street. last night when several tons
Of plaster fell from the ceiling and
lodged itself on frame display racks
directly over the heads of customers.
The material did not break in fall
ing, a fact which prevented loss Of
life or injury, in the opinion Of
Building Inspector Arthur n.
Rutherford.
The inspector was attending the
theater located nearby and he was
summoned by S. NJ. Davidson. owner
of the building. He attributed the
fall of the ceiling to the fact that
it had been strained by the addition
of several layers of material in re-
modelings. Clarence J. Callahan of
the Hayes Construction Co. was
reached in Hartford, and placed a
squad of Is workmen on the job at
once. removing the plaster and pre-
pairing for repairs.
The damage to the building and
to the wearing apparel i'll the store
will amount to several thousand
dollars.

years. Rice. never SO smart as he
thought he was. dropped that 49,
100000 following his own tips.
After that he left the race tracks,
where too many eyes were on him,
and went to Nevada to study min
ing. One of the first lessons he
learned was that there was often
more money to be got out of empty
mines than ones with ore in them.
He began floating stocks with such
names as Blizzard and Lucky Gulch
and his operations extended from
ocean to ocean.
Comes East
In 1908 he came east with a stock
called Rawhide Coalition. The
third vice president of the company
was Nat Goodwin. matinee idol of
the nation, and thousands of chorus
girls and housewives were said to
have poured their savings down to

the empty shafts of Rawhtde coali-
ton before the company collapsed.
Next Rice formed the brokerage
house of B. +. Sheftels which grew
to be one of the largest on the curb
before it exploded with q bang. That
cost investors millions Rice went
on trial and got 10 months. The
third time a chapter Of his life had
been concluded by the clang of
prison doors.
When he came out he did probably
the most startling thing Of his
career He exposed himself in a book
called My Adventures With Your
Money" which had q sensational
sale. He said he was through then,
but his mania for speculation soon
had him back in the racket and he
stayed until the trial that ended
with today's sentence.
At one of his trials he said that
s20O.0oo,0O0 was represented by the
companies he had sponsored. He has
made millions and at one point OF
his career. the release from Black
wells he went through bankruptcy
with liabilities close to 100000.
Whether the balance Is up or down
at the moment is matter of con.
lecture.
Mere Conjecture
1t is conjecture. too, whether Rice.
now 5S years old. can come out OF
prison once more to catch up the
golden threads of fancy finance. or
whether today's sentence actually
marks the closing OF one OF the
most spectacular careers in all the
history of shearing the sheep Of the
human race.
Execution of all sentences was
stayed until Jan. 3 to permit defense
counsel to prepare writs Of error
which will be asked for all defend
ants pending appeal. Besides the
sentences Rice and Yorston will have
to serve, barring successful appeal.
they were each given in addition
suspended sentences Of five years.
