SHOT ON A STAGE.
Marksman Missed the Apple on a
Mans Head in New York Show.

Cold Spring Harbor. N. Y, Oct ~
John Volkman, a barber, was accident
ally shot and killed on the stage of
Thespian hall by Charles Meinet of the
company which has been giving a two
weeks show in connection with the sale
of medicines. One of the star features
Of the show was Meinet's feat of shoot
ing an apple from the head of any per-
son who would volunteer to stand up
and allow the apple to have his head
for a resting place.
Volkman had offered to allow the ap-
pie to be placed on his head. Meinet
was not shooting well, having missed
card target a short time before the bar
Der came on the stage. When the ap-
pie was placed on Volkman's head
Meinet began shooting at a distance of
about twenty feet. The first two shots
failed to hit either the apple or the man
but the third struck Volkman in the
forehead and he dropped to the stage
and died within an hour. Meinet was ar
rested and held for a hearing on
charge of manslaughter. Volkman was
IS years old. His father and mother live
in Germany.
