         Buildings Fall - One Man Killed.
         
         A little after three o'clock yesterday afternoon,
       a large double wooden building on Franklin street,
       near the corner of Madison, which has been recently
       raised some eight feet to grade, and under which
       workmen were engaged in laying a foundation, fell
       to the ground with a crash, carrying with it in 
       the fall a small one story building adjoining, on
       the corner of Madison street, as well as the side-
       walk on both streets. There were two men to work
       under the large building when it fell, and one of
       them, named HENRY FRENCH, was instantly killed.
       The other man was knocked to the ground, but es-
       caped unhurt. FRENCH was an Englishman, formerly
       from London, and was some thirty-five years old.
