PLAYED WITH A REVOLVER.


After travelling a long, long distance,
from hand to. hand. little 22-calibre
revolver got mad Friday evening be-
tween and o'clock and bit Hawley
Gould on the hand. Hawley is 12 years
old and is the son of Mrs, Gould, who
lives over Jenkins & Musgrave's drug
store on the corner Of Jackson street
and Main avenue. He was playing
with the revolver near the oxford
breaker when it was accidentally dis
charged and the bullet lodged in the
fleshy part of the hand near the thumb,
breaking several small bones. Young
Gould and a companion, Halloy Zintle
of Tenth street, Jointly purchased the
revolver few days ago from James
jeremiah, lad living on Lafayette
street. They paid 80 cents for it. Since
then the weapon has been handled by
nearly every male pupil in No. 10
school. The firm of Zintle and Gould
wanted to sell out at cost. Friday they
secured a purchaser and it was while
transferring the property that the .ac-
cident happened. The new owner was
to have been a lad named Jordan. Dr.
f.. A. Heermanns and DR.. ComegyS
made efforts to extract the bullet but
they were unsuccessful. The wound is
not considered dangerous.

Among the Victims.

Bismarck, n. D., Feb 21.-The hor-
rible discovery of the murder of six
persons has just been made near Win
ona, on the Missouri river, about thirty
miles below Bismarck. The wholesale
slaughter occurred at the farm house of
Thomas Spicer. The affair is shrouded
in mystery. 1t is believed that the In
dams may have been the murderers,
although there Is nothing to substan-
tiate the theory other than that num-
Der of them are said to have been lott
ering about the neighborhood.
The dead are:
MRS. WILLIAM WALDRON.

TWIN BABY BOYS, sons of Mrs. Rouse.
MR.. THOMAS PICER.

while passing the house of his brother,
Thomas a nile and half from where
he lived, he hallooed the occupants, as
was his custom. He received no reply,
and after shouting several times he
alighted from the wagon and knocked
at the door. There was no response
and he pushed open the door. He was

Just word about the scene: The main
auditorium for the first time was light
ed by 100 incandescent lights, arrang-
ed in running form around the arches
of the ceiling and each light shaded.
On the wall at the rear of the choir
loft there was festooning of American
flags with the inscription in red colors:
God, Our Country and Our Or
der" the motto of the Patriotic Order
Sons of America. The choir loft was
filled with children and on the pulpit
which had been extended the choir
under the leadership of Lewis Davis
was seated. on the floor and in the
front part of the auditorium there were
two stacks of muskets. the property
of the order and resting against the
pulpit pedestal was a picture of George
Washington. Mr.. de Gruchy's sermon
was full of fire and appealed strongly
to the patriotism of the Sons of Ameri-
ca. f..
He began with the statement that no
one doubts the great part that our
country plays in the historic drama.
All signs go to show that America is a
leader among the nations. Providence
intended it to serve great designs and
we must try to unraVel before the eyes
of the world a land of Godliness and
righteousness. America stands in
prodigy among the nations, unequalled
in any time. The speaker then went
on to show the wonderful natural re-
sources and opportunities of America
How no land can offer such perfect
equality and entire freedom. The arts
and sciences have advanced, every de-
partment has progressed and though
the youngest we are the richest Then
came startling statement.
IF England and continental Europe
were dropped east of the Hudson river
and II some enc greater than Napoleon
was called npon to weld those coun-
tries into one grand mass we would
hardly know there was an empire
among us! Our wealth could buy Eu-
rope and we would have money to
spare and some for the contribution
boz"
Mr.. De Gruchy then paid tribute to
the thinking citizen" The emigrants
that come to our shores are chiefly the
unlettered; we have to put them
through a boiling process before we
can make American citizens of them.
They come in quantity but not in
quality; the intelligent stay at home.
Some think this is a land of gold
without working for it and some there
are who have never gotten over the
delusion." Mr.. De Gruchy's reference
to the public schools was in the ma
ture of a condemnation of those who
