One OF the cuts had penetrated the plu.
raj cavity and punctured the lung. Every
breath he took, part OF the mir was expeli-
cd through the cut, but still there was
no collapse Of the lung. Whether the
heart had been touched or not the doctors
could not say, when the reporter left.
They said that it would be necessary ior
the patient to rally before they could state
definitely. They regarded his condition
as serious with only slight probability OF
his recovery. He was not in condition
to talk, so that nothing could be. learned
from him. Before the arrival OF the doc.
tors it is understood that he said some
thing about Il bad report having reached
his ears about his girl in the Eighth ward.
Heis a good looking man, about IS years

also worked for other trunk-mahers in the
