Albert H. Stine At City Hospital Suffering From Fractured Skull. Struck on the forehead by an inse leurely tied screen counter weight as she worked on the stage of the Tivoli Theater Wednesday morning, Albert H. Stine, this city, is at the Frederick City Hospital suffering from a frac tured skull and minor injuries. At the hospital Wednesday night it was stat ed that he was resting comfortably. Sime was working with Charles Knip ‘ple and Edgar T. Betson on the stage of the theater at the time of the ac cident. He had, a few minutes before the mishap, tied the 50-pound weight to a fly rope attached to the screen and was in the act of lifting the screen when the weight became de tached and struck him. It fell ap proximately one foot. Seeing that Stine was badly injured Knuppie and Betson called John Miller, assistant manager of the theater, who pushed the injured man to the hospital where an examination revealed a frac tured skull and cuts and bruises about the face and arms. Neither Knipple nor Betson saw the weight strike Stine. Their attention was attracted when Stine fell to the floor bleeding. Stine, in attaching the weight to the fly tope, tied it in a loose knot, which failed to hold when the screen was raised.
