BOLDEN'S RIFLE EXPLODED
And as a Consequence lie Lost His
 Right Thumb Instantly.

Ahact<-hey-
 The first accident of the hunting season occurred last Tuesday about twelve miles southwest of Williams by which one young man might have lost his life and resulted in his being badly maimed.
 On Monday evening a party of three: S. H. Req, George Wagner and Ben Bolden, drove out west of Coleman's lake and camped near M. Clancy's cabin. They arose early Tuesday morning and began their search for game. About 10 a. m. Wagner came across some deer and began shooting; he suc- ceeded in wounding a buck, which ran in the direction young Bolden had taken, and shortly there was heard the report of a gun and then a shout. Req and Wagner climbed upon a divide in order to locate, as they supposed, the fortunate hunter, and shot off a six-shooter several times in order to ascertain his whereabouts. Receiving no answer they thought he had possibly struck out for camp to secure a horse to bring in the deer, and after hunting some while longer they turned their footsteps that way. Upon nearing camp they saw the team already hitched up and Bolden sitting in the carriage, while Clancy was waving his arms as though some thing was wrong. Hurrying for ward they learned of the accident and lost no time in starting for town as Ben was suffering greatly from the wound he had received.
 It appears that when the deer Wagner had wounded came in sight Bolden fired at it, the gun ex- ploding right at the breech- His right hand was badly lascerated and upon their arrival here Drs. Rounseville and Tyroler were com pelled to remove the entire thumb bone.
 The rife was of the 3S-56 Marlin pattern and was a comparatively new gun. What caused it to burst can only be guessed at as that style of rife is supposed to be absolutely safe.
 Bolden showed considerable grit and walked into camp alone after
