Falling Plaster Causes Much
Excitement.
REPORTS EXAGGERATED I
The Statements Tlint tho Fall was Due to
a Shock Canned by n Shot In the Mines
In I'ufouudtd The llulldlng Is Perfectly
Snte.
A f nil ot a part ot a ceiling in ono of
the rooms in the White street school
building almost created a panic among
the teachers and scholars shortly after
eleven o'clock this morning, and caused n
report to be spread through the town that
the building was tumbling down.
As this was the structure which caused
so much discussion over Its stability a few
years ago. It did not take much thought
to convince some people that the report
was correct, nuuougn ix, was simply an
other case of exaggeration.
The plaster fell In room No. 3. In which
Miss Battle 1. Iless teaches. Tho teacher
had just left her seat when a quantity of
plaster fell upon her desk and chair, leav
ing an exposed part of the laths in the
ceiling about lour and a half feet long
nnd three feet wide.
The falling plaster shook tho building
auu wane a noise wuicu was neara uy
the teachers in some of the other rooms.
In the excitement that followed one or
two of the other teachers said that just
ueiore me iaii mey nearu a noise similar
to mat causeu uy a snot in the mines,
and it was suggested that the plas
ter had been knocked down by the
shock from a shot fired in the
mine workings under the building. This,
of course, added to the excitement and the
six schools were speedily dismissed, the
scholars leaving the building in perfect
order. Many of tho children ran home to
tell their parents of the occurrence and of
course their version of the affair became
more magnllled according to the distance
tuey uau to travel.
Among those who hurried to the build
ing were School Directors Conrv. Mill
doon and Haima and Superintendent
Whitakerand after an examination of
the building they concluded that there
was-no cause for alarm; that the fall of
plaster was due to a defect in the making
of the celling and the piece that fell haa
probably been hanging by a slender thread
from the time tho building sank a little a
iew years ago.
The directors examined all the rooms
and the brick nnd foundation walls and
did not find the slightest indication of u
shake. Tliev scouted the version Hint, n
shot In the mines had caused the fall or
tuat the building had been shaken by
uuyiuiiig oiuer man me tailing piaster.
The dismissal of the schools was severely
criticized.
All the schools in the building were re
opened after tho dinner hour and the
teachers have assurances that the build
ing is not only safe, but that they need
have no apprehensions of shocks from
oinsis in tue mines.
Get your repairing done at Holder

The
Home Team Wins
Listless Game.
ASHLAND THE VICTIM I
I'ltclier Shultit Meets With a Serious
Accident The Shenamlonhltes Ite.ott to
Terrllln rounding In the First and Ninth
Innlng-Tlio Visitors Were l'lucky.
The attendance to witness tho Shenan
doah-Ashland game at tho Trotting park
yesterday was not near as largo as nt either
of tho preceding games and it is well It
was not, for their would have been danger
of turning the tide of tho home club's
popularity. Tho gamo was a very listless
one and neither side plnyed with tho vim
nnd activity which mnkes tho sport
popular In this region. It Is said that nil
ball players have their o(T days and It
must bo true. About sevonteen of the
nineteen players who went upon tho din
inoilil yesterday were considerable "r(T"
and tho game was practically a test to
see which side cnnld hit. tin. Lull tin.
hardest and scoro the greatest number
01 runs.
In tho first Inning tho home team had n
Elcnic. Twelve men went to the pinto
eforo tho side was retired and a three
bagger, three two base hits, a single and
tnreu errors culminated in elgut runs.
This should hnve been ennuirh to dis
courage the most sanguine of the visitors,
but when their time to go to the plnte
nrriveu every ono oi tnem walked up
smilingly and before the side was retired
they scored three runs.
In the second lnnini nn nnHtlpnf tnrnp.1
the tide In Ashlnnd's favor ami tho home
team Had all It could do to keep the
visitors from taking n decided lead. A
ball driven with terrific force by Bancroft
sirucK i-iicner onuitz above tbe right
eye. Many exnected to see the nlnverfnll
mortally Injured, but to the great surprise
ui mi ue remained upon nis leet anu
placed both hnnds over the injured part.
Ho then turned and walked towards third
base, and when reeling was caught by
some of the players. He was bathed with
water and after havlnir the lnlurv
bandaged was driven home. It was sup-
puseu irom uie appearance ot tne wound
that the skull had been fractured, but
subsequent Investigation showed thut the
injury was not that bad.
Toman succeeded Shultz nnd the visitors
batted him freely, taking the lend In the
uiiu inning oy maKiug tno score V4 to 11
in their favor.
In the sixth Inning fortune again
favored the home team. Musser nnd
Mulderig got their bases on balls and Toole
surprised the crowd by bringing them in
with a home run.
Neither side scored in the seventh or
eighth Innings, but in the ninth inning
tho home team resorted to terrific slug
ging and placed victory beyond the reach
of tho visitors. Such pounding was never
before seen on the grounds and It looked
ns if the Shennndoahites had been plnylng
with Pitcher Jones for the preceding in
nings nnd wanted to show 1 v easy they
could drop on his delivery. Toman
opened the ball with n single, Reilly
followed with a homo run, Setley added a
two bagger, Gibson made n single, Musser
followed with a two bagger nnd Mulderig
with a hit. Toole didn't get n chance to
hit the ball because the hall hit him and
he took his base. Henry then added an
other two-bagger and after two men had
been retired another hit was added, mak
ing seven solid hits before tho side was
retired and eight more runs were ndtled
to tho Shenandoah score.
But the Ashlanders again went to the
plate smiling. Nothing could drive hope
from them, but they were powerless.
Walters went out on n fly to Gibson nnd
Griffith flew out to Musser. Bancroft
ent up n high fly to short and Setley,
feeling that he hud n sure thing, tried to
make one of his quaint back-catches, but
failed and Bancroft got the base on the
error. Before the next batter got n
chance nt the bat, however, Bancroft was
thrown out by Ifeillv when trvlncr tn
steal second nnd tho game ended with the
following score:

Harry Hafner proved quite a delivery
eater. He gave tho ball several resound

a hit.
