One Of our Murphysboro exchanges
says that couple of Grand Chain boys,
big fellows, were strolling in the woods the
other day, and stumbling over large
bomb; shell, (Which had doubtless fallen
from some Of the bomb-shel trees that
grow very plentiful in that locality and
concluding that they wanted the lead that
filled the mouth or fuse hole Of the deadly
projectilc, they built themselves fire, tum-
bled the shell into the flames, and sat down
to await results. The shell soon taking on
the required heat, flung itself all to pieces,
knocking the two astonished boys end over
end, and injuring them severely, AS the
editor whom we quote merely used the oc-
currencc described to "adorn a tale,n in

matter Of no consequence whatever. The
editor probably forgot to add that the
bomb-shell was left there by the Knights Of

ed and capable of much mischief. One
day this week four of the keepers accom-
panied twenty-five or thirty of the mider
lunAtics on a walk about the grounds.
Among the rest were young Purcell, and
an old man named Alfred Corzinc resi-
dent OF Union county who had been driy-
en- crazy by religious excitement and bible
reading. Securing a brick and awaiting
his opportunity Purcell flew at the old man
and before the keepers could interfere,
had beaten the old fellow SO sayagely and
mercilessly that he died in less than two
hours. The old man was usually mild,
but at long intervals became violent and
quarrelsome. II is conjcctured that in one
of these ill-humored spells he had injured
Purcelis feelings, and that nursing his
feelings Of anger and resentment Purcell
availed himself Of the first favorable
chance to wreak his vengeance. The body
Of Corzinc was buried at Dongola. He had
many relatives in Union county, some
