afternoon walked across the river to
the pool rooms, says the Cincinnati En-
quirer. While strolling around he put
his hands in his pockets, and after feel

came to the conclusion that he needed a
little spending money, and pulling out
a check he filled it out, and walking
across the street he presented it at a
bank, and was handed $4,000. Then he
made few bets. He bet $500 on Ma
Belle, the same amount on AZrael and
$500 on Hawkeye. He lost them all,
and left for the West last night.
Shaw has the betting privileges for

Valentine Clays Receives a Serious
Wound.
Ho Was Gut Hunting with Some Other
Boys Yesterday When the Ac-
cident Occurred.

The folly Of allowing boys to carry fire.
arms was again exemplified yesterday.
Valentine Clays, the 1S-year-old son of
Dan Clays of the Comstock saloon, asked
his father yesterday morning if he could
go hunting with party of boys in Emil
grafton canyon and received an emphatic
refusal, as his father was afraid of the
usual carelessness of boys. But the boy
went hunting just the same. When the
party of boys were about six miles up the
canyon one of them said: ''There is a
bird; Pm going to shoot it, He began
to level his gun, when Valentine, who
was on the ground, suddenly stepped
within the line of sight, and, as conse-
quence, received the ball in his neck.
His comrades did all they could for him,
and Immediately brought him down to
Wagener's- A telephone message ap-
prised the father of the accident, and soon
a carriage was sent up for the injured
boy. He was brought to the city, and
soon DR.. Ewing was called. He found
the case too delicate to treat without as
sistance, and DIR. Beatty was called in.
The two physicians endeavored to locate
the ball by probing, but were unsuccess-
ful on account of the swelling that had
taken place. Meanwhile the boy is in
critical condition and the doctors and pa
rents are anxiously awaiting some def
mite turn.
