MORE CARELESS FIRING. On Friday az
ternnon last, az tile person VINO attends TO
thr lirea, &r, at St. john Academy, North
Culnmbus street, was engaged In sweeping
out the school rootu, ne heard the report Ut
Il gun, and d rifle ball came through the
framing and plaster about eleven feet from
the ground He Immediately ran out into
the yard but could see nobody, and the pre-
sumption is that some careless person IN the
vicinity was engaged in rifle practice and
fired the wrong way.
Had the affair happened earlier, when the
room was full of boys, aud the ball entered
q little lower, SEINE one would probably have
been killed. We would suggest to those IN
possession Of fire arms to do their practising
out Of town as the law requires, Or we may
have soma very serious accident to record.
