Shot Without Knowing it.

sIdSuSC CttAudTu
o. D. Burhans, son of 81. N. Bur-
hans, and four young companions, all re.
siding in Danforth, left yesterday after
noon for Onondaga Valley, where they
were going hunting. They drove a
horse, the property of Mr.. Burnans. On
the way out the horse acted wildly, and
when gun was discharged he could not
be made to stand. When the valley was
reached Burhans and another boy re-
manned in the buggy, while the other
alighted and searched for game. The
boys in the buggy drove on, but return
ed shortly, and as the horse had become
quiet, they requested two of the boys
who were walking to shoot off their
guns, in order that the horse might get
accustomed to the report before they re-
turned home. The buggy at the time of
the shooting was some distance from the
guns.
The boys then started for home, and
nothing wrong was noticed until we'll on
their way, when Burhans told the boy
in the buggy to take the reins as he felt
faint. He then fell against the back of
the buggy, and when they examined him
they found that he had been shot and
they set out for home as soon as posi-
BILE. On the way they met Drs. Van
Duyn and Loomis, who, when they saw
the condition he was in accompanied him
home. On examination it was found
that he had been shot by ball either
from rifle or a revolver. The ball had
penetrated the top of the buggy, and
had struck him in the back under the
left shoulder blade. The doctors probed
for the ball but were unable to find it.
The boys who accompanied Burhans
can not account for the accident, as there
were only two small shot guns in the
party, none of them having rifle with
them, and as the distance between them
and the buggy was too great for shot
gun to carry, the shots which they fired
they think, could not have been the ones
that did the harm. The guns were
breech leaders and were loaded with
shells of fine shot, the loading having
been done at Smiths gun works. Bur-
hans is about II years Of age, and has
always had great love for hunting and
fishing. The family do not blame any
of the boys that accompanied him, and
it is thought the shot was fred by some
one else who was shooting in the neigh
borhood. The doctors say that although
the ball may have penetrated lung they
have hopes of recovery, although they
were unable to remove the ball last
night.

The three year old daughter Of Mr.
and Mrs. Elmer Bushrong, Of Olatha,
johnson county, swallowed concentrated
lye from the effects Of which she died.
It seems that q can of concentrated lye
had been in use during the day and had
been placed in box on the gasoline
stove, and that while the mother was alb
sent from the room the little child had
climbed up, taken the box and in at
tempting to drink the solution, part Of it
entered the child's windpipe. Medical
aid was at once summoned but nothing
could be done.

None of these figures reach two
thousa I'd, and yet what hopeless talk
to sum them up without an abacus! But
that is, indeed, small matter. Here are
two better tests of the impossibility OF
arithmetic without Arabic notation.
Multiply Gall in Roman figuree)
MDCCXLIV by DCLXXXIV, and d.

could be simpler than those two sums,
and yet it requires considerable intellect
and very close attention to work them
out on paper with the Roman symbols.

In an interview recently an American
gentlemen said that large sums of money
were being sent from American cities to aid
the secession party in Nova Scotia. One
Boston firm contributed $4,000, which was
forwar ed the day he left that city. He also
states that the secession movement il looked
upon as preliminary step toward annexs-

Value of Arabic Numerals.

Few people, probably, have any ade-
quate idea of the great difficulties In
which arithmetic would be involved were
it not for the happy invention of the
Arabic numerals. Here is a very simple
little sum in addition, put Roman
fashion. The reader will find it "a nies
little amusement" as the MODEL papa al
ways tells his daughters, to work it out
as it stands without having recourse to
Arabic notation;

A BALLADE OF COLD WATER.

You may say that good wine makes you blitht
and gay,
And thrills your soul, and your thoughts impel
TO most fanciful images that display
The sound of music's enchanting swell,
Like that which from the sweet sirens fell
Hard by Caprea's shore in the ancient SEA.
More full IF comforting thonght-ah, well,
That Geld water alone is the drink for me.
You my sail with your wine on Venetian bay,
Witt Ruth, or Grace, or fair Annabel,
Yo1 NAV roam in the gardens the hvelong day
Or wait the strains of glad Philomel-
MAY dream at will of the pink SEA shell!
Through long welded be wine and all poesy,
I'm full of comforting thought-ah, well,
That cold water alone is the drink for me.

eyes.
Once out in the plain the boy began to
run quickly toward home. Their bag
was full of potatoes, which the Prussians
had given them, aud SO they passed the
sharpshooters trench. Here they were
getting ready for night attack. Troops
kept comming in silently and forming
behind the walls. The old sergeant was
there looking happy and busily placing
his men He noticed the children as
they passed, and smiled at them kindly
How that smile hurt young Stenne. He
was on the point of calling out to them:
"Don't go there; we have betrayed
you"
But his companion had warned him
IF you peach, we shall be shot," and SO
fear kept him from saying anything.
At Courneuve they entered an aban-
doned house to divide up the money. and
truth obliges me to own that the division
was fair one, and that when young
Stenne heard the crowns jingling in his
pockets, and thought of the many
games of "galoche" he should be able to
play his crime no longer seemed such a
horrible one.
As soon as he was alone, however, he
began to suffer misery; the big fellow
had left him as soon as they had passed
the gate, and then the crowns in his
pocket began to grow heavier and heavier,
and the hand that was clutching his heart
frightened its grasp. Paris seemed chang
ed; the people in the streets looked at
him disapprovingly, as if they knew
where he had been, and he kept hearing
the word 'tspy" in the noise OF the wheels
and in the rolling Of the drums the boys
