Ind , Jan H.-Tues- dav evening, shortly after 8 o - Hock, the supports of the iron ,inf over the court house gave !lv and the roof and ceiling fell vvith a terrific crash into the rourt room crushing seats, bench- ps chairs, railings in one confus- J mass. The strong second qLr nrevented any damage to l}.e offices below but from the second tloor up, the building is a n-reck that baffles description. Bricks, laths, iron roofing, the iron rods and bars which have been supporting the roof lie ir. one confused pile, covering the entire floor. The heavy wooden benches were crushed as if they were paper. To prevent danger from fire, the el-^ctric light wires were cut immediately, Tuesday night. Yery little of the true condition could be seen that night on ac count of the (^rkness and the unknown danger from the walls which still stood. Nothing could be done but wait until daylight yesterday when the completeness of the wreckage could be seen. The noise was heprd for blocks there was first a slight sound as of something slipping. Then an increasing roar and the final crash. Ttie shock was felt in dis tant parts of town. People pour ed out of the stores. Those in the Odd FelloWs^ hall came to the street in a hurry. The first thought was that the bbiler had exploded. But the truth was soon learned as the cloud of dust settled and the stars could be seen when one looked where the roof had previously been. Perhaps the cause of the acci dent will never be known. It was not caused by the ice and snow for the snow was light on the roof. The extreme cold wea ther was probable immediately responsible. The cold caused the iron supports to contract. They were weakened by age and rust. The\ rested on a plate of four inches. Perhaps the soft brick were crumbling. The defect was in the supports of the roof. Some years, an architect, after examining the building urged that a new roof with new sup ports be put on. The &ood fortune of the alfair is that it occurred at night when the bulilding was deserted. Had it occurred w'hen the court room is packed, as it frequently is, hundreds of people would have been killed. Richmond, Va., Jan. 19.-Dec ember and May were united yes terday when_ Eddie Carrington, 21, and Mattie Robinson, 47, were {aunc^ed on the matrimonial seas by Parson” Mike Macon, spec ial commissioner of the Hustings Court, after Wedting clerk “Bil lie Breeden had issued the neces sary permit. The pair vowed they loved each other dearly, and conse quently the parson just had to tie the knot whether he disaproved of their ages or not. The cere mony was pullea off in the par son’s private office, with only two or three witnesses on hand. Both Carrington and his bride hail from South Richmond. This is her second venture on the marital seas. The couple are col ored.
