Pete Brown Shot,

About eight o'clock this morn
ing Pete Brown familiar char
acter about the streets Of this
city was the victim of peculiar
but never the less painful acct
dent. just how the accident oc-
Cured is not known, but from the
stories Of the persons connected
with the affair it appears that
Pete who is janitor at Gumb's sa-
loon on lower Erie street was
wor king at one end of the bar,
when the man who bad charge of
the bar at the time attempted to
take revolver from a drawer be-
side the cash register and the
weapon fell from his hands and
struck the floor, exploding the re-
volver, the charge striking Brown
in the right thigh. The bullet
whichwas of . large caliber imbed
edin the flesh of the leg to a debth
OF several inc hes. An operation
which was performed short time
after the accident for the removal
OF the bullet was successful and
at present it is thought nothing
serious will result from the affair.
