Shot attn Nest of wasps.

Henry WOrmser, farmer of Worten-
dyke. near Kidgewood, \. j., went into
an unused garnet under the sloplng roof
of his house Wednesday to bring down
an old trunk that he had stored there
twelve months ago. He found that a
swarm of wasps had built nest on the
lid of the trunk. and he decided to dis
lodge them with his double-barrel gun.
He charged both barrels heavily, using
rusty nails and scraps of iron instead of
shot and, standing just inside the heavy
door. which he held open with his foot,
he aimed at the wasps' nest by the dim
light. and pulled both triggers at once.
The recoil staggered him, and he fell
against the door. slamming it shut. At
the same moment he heard the handle,
which was loose. fall down on the out
side. dragging the bar with 1t. The
detached inner handle dropped upon his
foot. and he was locked up in the garnet.
He was not there alone, either.
He does not know yet how many
wasps he killed. but there were plenty
left 10 avenge their dead comrades. With
the door shut he could no longer see
them. hut they saw him quite distinctly
As he dropped his gun and pounded at
tbe door like mailman he remembered
with dos uair that his wife had gone to
RidgeWoNa to make some purchases
Still he shouted for help and hammered
away at she stout door, which resisted
all his efror-s to break it open.
1t happened that Mrs. Wormser had
left her purse in her bedroom, and re-
turning for it she heard her husbands
cries. She found the handle and opened
the door lie fell over her and tumbled
