LAUREL.


The condition of Newton Willis, the ten
year-old son OF Mr.. Charles s. Willis, secre-
tary of the District of Columbia branch of
the American Legion Of Honor, who received
a charge of dynamite in his right leg below
the knee Saturday evening, is improving
The doctors have probed the youngsters
leg and most of the powder and pieces of
brass from the dynamite cartridge have
been removed.
Young Willis received the charge of dyna-
mite in his leg last Saturday evening in front
of the store of Mr.. Montgomery Armstrong
dealer in newspapers and periodicals He
was in company with mis- six-year-old- broth
er, Stanley Willis, and Hatton Rogers, the
eleven-year-old son of Mr.. Frank Rogers,
an employe in the Department of Justice.
The young boys were on an errand, when
they stopped at this point to see Howell
Armstrong, the fourteen-year-olds son of Mr..
Montgomery Armstrong, cut a dynamite
cartridge in two, in order to secure the wire
inside for his small electric battery. Arm
strong was holding the cartridge out at
arms length and hammering on it when it
exploded. The cartridge was pointing in
the direction of young Willis, who just be-
fore the explosion started to move off, and
most of the contents of the cartridge took
effect In his leg. Armstrong; hand was
badly burned and pieces of the brass cap
entered portions of his body. These, how
ever, were removed by DR.. Byerly. A part
of the cartridge also hit little Stanley Willis
en- the LETT side, over the hedrt. but did not
enter deeply into the flesh. and was easily
removed. A number of grains lodged in
Rogers face, but these were also removed.
| Young Willis sustained the severest injuries
| of all, and is now confined tC his house, be-
ing unable to use his right leg. One of the
arteries in the leg, it is believed, was cut
| by the dynamite.
Your Armstrong secured the cartridge
| on the electric railway work. which is now
going on here. All of the youngsters, with
| the exception of Newton Willis, are out and
seem all right. Armstrong is carrying one
of his arms In sling
