HOW IT WAS DONE.

Sterling said, we had been shoot
ing at mark, all the cartridges in
my pistol were exploded but one,
and / was swapping it, it being =
double action until it would revolve
around to the cartridge.I L did not think
the cartridge was around yet, when
the pistol fred and poor Tom. fell
dead at my feet, the ball striking
Just over the left eye and coming out
the top of his head.
There Is no doubt bat hat the
above statements are the exact facts,
the boy that did the shooting and
his poor mother were almost crazed
with grief, as well as the father of
the dead boy, who buried his wife
only a month ago.
The body was turned over to un-
dertakcr Rabb and Coroner Barns
telegraphed for, who held an inquest
Monday, the verdict of the jury b..
ing in accordance with the above
statement
The funeral sew ces were held q,
the Methodist church Monday after
noon, Rev. II. NJ. Law officiating,
and were largely attended.

Last fall DIR. Kimball began exploring
for iron ore on the town site, ut the east
end OF Superior avenue and after carry
ing on the work short time turned it
over to the Iron County Exploring Co.,
a stock concern composed of gentlemen
Of this city and operations were continu-
ed by the company until during the win
ter when at depth OF sixty feet water
made into the shalt SO last that the
pumps in use were unable TO take care OF
II and the outlook FOR iron ore not being
the best and the company not being in n
financial condition to enable IL TO replace
the small pumps with larger ones uband-
oned the work forthwith. The water
continued TO come and finally filling the
shaft came down the side Of the banking
around the collar OF the shaft in n clear,
cold, bright and sparkling stream several
inches in diameter. 1t was plain TO be
seen that living stream OF water had
been cut but nothing more was thought
OF il at the time. When the snow disap-
peared peculiar smell was noticed about
the shaft and those familiar with such
thing at once pronounced il sulphur but
such assertions ms made were not gener-
ally accepted DIR. Metcalf heard OF this
and straightway made test OF the water
and sure enough the result obtained was
sulphur. Some of the water has been
forwarded TO Prof. Haines, Of the Rush
Medical College, Chicago, for complete
analysis, which will be given in these coli
umns as soon as the return is made. At
all times during the day many people can
be seen quaffing cool draught at the
spring or carrying the health giving water
TO their homes in pals. The great heal
ing powers Of what is known as sulphur
water are well known TO every body and
IL this Is properly handled twill be agreat
thing for Crystal Falls, as il is the only
spring Of the kind in the upper country
and il bound TO attract attention. The
water Is far ahead OF the rullulu springs
at Appleton, Wis, is even better than
the Sheboygnn product and is fully equal
to the waters OF the famous sulphur
springs OF Monagaw, SC. Clair county,
Mo-, il being very similar TO the flow OF
black sulphur OF that place. The stream
appears 10 be- "A lasting one and it now
remains for the town 20 fix up and beauti-
~ the grounds around il. II Is much re-
gretted that the stream is not at the top
OF the hill.

The Fourth Of July celebration at
Crystal Falls was not as much OF sue
cess as has been had in former years, but
still very good time was had and all
those who did so are glad they remained
at home. The day opened bright and
clear and the booming OF cannons was
commenced with the rising Of the son.
Both sides OF main street had.been decor
ated with balsam trees and presented a
beautiful appearance. The first on the
program was n horde OF calithumpians,
who after showing themselves TO the
great edification OF all, formed In line
and marched 20 the grand stand at the
picnic grounds In the beautiful maple
woods on the Paint river road. Then
followed the customary exercises OF the
national holiday. At two o'clock n ball
game between the third nine and business
mems nine was called and for sport was n
feature OF the day, an account OF which
will be found elsewhere. The picnic was "A
most enjoyable affair and largely attend
ed In the evening grand pyrotechnic
display was witnessed. The selection Of
fire works, including two ballons, was
simply grand, and the best ever seen in
the city. After the fireworks came the
dance which was well attended. The
committee did not have very large
amount OF money at its disposal but
used what they had TO the very best ad-
vantage. The amount was less than
5000, instead OF $500. The extreme
stringency Of the times in this locality is
the cause OF the small allowance, but
nevertheless the day was appropriately
observed, which is considerably in adj
vance oil no celebration at all.
