Of dealing with Internal machines Of
any kind, and did not know how to
handle a human bomb. ( :.
Edwin Wright, the boyin question,
is eight years old, and lives at 1431
Point Breeze avenue. While playing
with other boys on the dump at
Twenty-sixth and Tasker streets he
found bottle whose contents he: mis-
took for whisky. He raised it to his
lips and: had drunk, as he says. sew
eral fingers of the liquid before his
companions, who saw alabel Poison"
on the bottle, knocked it from his
hands. $ ~:
Edwin Immediately became sick.
1t was found that the bottle had con-
tanned nitroglycerin, and Policeman
Michael Grugan, who had the boy in
charge, grew nervous He wanted to
summon the patrol to remove Edwin
to t he. hospital, but feared the conse-

might be caused by walking a person
who had a high explosive concealed in
his body. He solved the quandary by
taking the youth in his arms and pro-
oeeding gingerly several blocks to
where he could call the patrol.
When the wagon came Grugan,
who, pale as a ghost, was holding the
