other persons were very seriously injured
The party had been bathing at Gerhard's
pavilion when the bolt struck the bath
house, tearing out portion Of the wood

injured were taken to Ericsson's hotel and
DR.. Hill was summoned. For some time
they were all unconscious
The unfortunate pleasure party acted
very mysteriously. When the others were
told one of their number had been killed.
they refused at first to give their names,
but finally, when the police started to make
an investigation, the men gave names and
addresses which are believed to be ficti-
tious
The dead man was said to be:
Loomis, John, IS years old of 1920 Full
ton street. BROOKLYN
The injured were described as:
Howard; John, of 1920 Fulton street,
brooklyn.
Moore, Nellie. - years old. OF S5l West
Twenty-tifth street.
Wilkinson, Charles, of 1870 Fulton street,
Brooklyn.
When the men recovered from the effects
of the shock, they left Coney Island in a
hurry. They seemed to be anxious to con-
ceal their identity and refused to tell where
they were going. The dead mans body
was taken to Stillwell's morgue

put on his coat when struck The bolt hit
him on the right arm. burning it from the
elbow to the wrist. 1t then passed across
his body to the right leg, tore aft his right
shoe, passed to the left, tearing that shoe
on, and burning his feet badly.
Wilkinson was the least hurt. He re-
ceived the bolt in the back. and it passed
down his legs to the ground
Two doctors worked hard and soon re-
vived all three. The doctors thought at
first the woman and Howard were fatally
injured, but the latter was soon found to
be less seriously hurt than at first SUD-
posed. The woman was paralyzed below
the waist, and the doctors said her recov-
cry was doubtful

LOOKING FOR RECRUITS.
Young Bachelors Wanted For the
United States Army.


Captain Carpenter, the officer In
charge of the United States station at
New Haven, advertises in the DEMO
Graf for recruits for the army. The
requirements for enlistment are de-
cisIve and interesting. Each applicant
must be between IS and 80 years of age.
Formerly man not more than IS years
old could be enlisted. Any applicant
under 81 cannot be enlisted except with
the written consent of his parents or
legally appointed guardian.
The minimum army height is five
feet four inches, for infantry, artillery
or cavalry service. The applicants for
the infantry and artillery may range in
weight from l2S pounds to 1870. For
the sake of the horse a cavalry man
cannot weigh over 100 pounds or exceed
five feet ten inches in height. Every
applicant must be bachelor of good
character, must be willing to enlist for
five years, and be able upon application
to converse in English.
The men enlisted for the cavalry ser
vice are sent to the jefferson barracks,
ten miles below St Louis. Those for
the infantry are sent to David's island,
near Glen Island. These two places are
the seats of military instruction and the
new men are kept there three months.
Then they are transferred to the ragi-
ments along the frontier. All the
privates receive from Cncie Sam S13 a
month or $50 for the five years, and
rations, clothing, bedding. medicines
and medical attendance.
Under the law "a soldier in his first
enlistment, after serving one year, may
purchase his discharge for $l2O, with a
reduction of IS in the purchase price for
every subsequent month until he com
pletes three years of service, when, if he
has served honestly and faithfully, he is
entitled to furlough for three months
with the privilege of discharge at the
expiration of the furlough."
a peculiar requisite for enlistment is
that each successful aspirant must have
a lower back tooth on each side of the
jaw directly opposite an upper back
tooth, for the purpose of proper masti-
cation. The physical examination,
though strict, is not critical or over
exacting. Any able bodied, unmarried
man OF good character, between the
ages of Is and 80, not under five feet
four inches in height, nor under I2S
pounds in weight, and with mOlars loca-
ted as above specified, may don the
army blue and carry gun.
