FIRED UPON THE BOYS.
One Killed Instantly and Two Others
Wounded--"Did not know the Gun
Was Loaded"


Wounded-"Dld not know the Gun
Was Loaded"
Three boys in bathing at Stowe Tuesday
We're shot and one of them killed by a bov
who claims he did not know his gun was
loaded. The shooting occurred in the
west part of the town on the bank of
the stream known as little river.
A lad named Fisk, son of Charles Fisk
of Waterbury, aged about - years; Ro-
land Gibbs, aged about six son of Mel
win Gibbs; and Philip Adams, aged about
10, son of Irwin Adams, both of Stowe
We're in bathing not far from the residence
OF FRANK Morse whose wife is sister of the
boy who was killed. George Gale. aged
about 16 only son of Frank Gale, was
out hunting woodchucks and seeing the
boys aimed his gun at them and without
warning pulled the trigger.
10 his great surprise and CONSERVATION
there was a report and two of the boys
fell and the other was slightly injured
The Fisk boy was instantly killed, Is
shot taking effect in his head and body
Roland Gibbs was very seriously injured
nine shot striking him in the arm leg
and side. One shot entered his abdomen
and the wound is a dangerous one. Philip
Adams was not seriously hurt being
slightly wounded in the knee.
George Gale and Philip Adams took up
1t to the house, the Gibbs boy being able
to walk without assistance. The first
warning Mrs. Morse had of the accident
was the sight of the boys bringing the
dead body. DIR. Morgan said that the
death of the Fisk boy was instantaneous,
as one shot entered the forehead and
another entered the brain through the
eye.
Some of the shot which hit the Gibbs
boy went through the flesh of his arm
and leg, but the other shot penetrated
so deep that they were not removed and
the wound in the abdomen may prove
fatal.
The shot which hit the Adams boy
were just beneath the skin and were
easily removed.
The Gale boy claims he had no inten-
ton of injuring the boys and did not
think his gun was loaded. His parents
are nearly Frustrated with grief over the
terrible accident.

A ROBBERY.

Last Friday, about midday, a
man named Duff, living a few
miles in the country came to town
and tanked up until in fair way
for the sharks that are on the l0ok
ont for victims. Duff fell into the
hands of one George Gilbert, who
conducted him to a place where he
could get bed for him. When
he got him there he proceeded to
rob him under the prctext Of be-
ing employed to take care Of him.
The friends Of Duff lnfoi med city
deputy marshal Gunnels Of the
affair and he investigated the mat
ter, having an eye on Gilbert.
About six o'clock Gilbert came to
Gunnels and told him he had TWEEN
ty dollars Of the mans money, and
if given a little time could find the
balance. The time was given him
until about o O'Clock be was ar
rested and $40 found on him. 1t
was found where he ! a | exchanged
the $40 bill. He was turned over
to the U. S. authorities and at our
hour of going to press the exami-
