WHAT HAPPENED TO BOWEN
No Wonder That He BEGINS 10 sus-
pect That He Ia UniuciSy.

No Wonder That He Begins 10 sus-
pect That He la Unlucky.
Walter Z. Bowen OF Charleston, Ind,
has q number of narrow escapes to his
credit, and he carries many scars, but
notwithstanding his experiences his
physical condition is good. Mr.. Bowen
describes himself as my own Jonah"
Nearly every year since his fourth
birthday he has met with some acct
dent which has confined him to his bed
for at least month.
When Mr.. Bowen was but four years
old, an angry turkey gobbler nearly
'fiopped" him to death. The next year
he was almost drowned In a branch by
a young woman who attempted to toss
him from bank to bank. One year later
ne was kicked through stable window
by mule, striking against a scantling.
The scantling rebounded. tossing Bow
en- back through the window, and he
was again knocked out by the mule.
The second time the boy failed to be re-
turned by the scantling, otherwise the
mule would have continued the game
indefinitely and until the boys life was
crushed out. That same year he was
found asleep I'm the woods with large
blacksnake wrapped about his body,
and it required careful work to kill
the snake without hurting the young
ster.
When he was seven years old, COW
tossed him over q fence, breaking sew
eral ribs. a few weeks afterward he
fell into creek and for the second
time in his life narrowly escaped death
by drowning. When he was eight years
old, young Bowen had broken one OF
the hogs on his fathers farm to ride
and he invited the son of a neighbor to
a hogback ride. After his friend had
been mounted Bowen bounded astride
an untamed animal, and with one wild
''whooff!' the animal plunged over a
fifty foot bluff into the creek below
with the boy on his back. The hog was
f1attened out like pancake by the
force Of the fall, but Bowers fall was
broken by the animal underneath him,
and fin few weeks he was again able
to roam in search of trouble.
When he was nine years old, he was
attacked by brood sow, which tore
every stitch of clothing off his person.
In his tenth year he was run over by
a wagon, gripping him for months
For three successive years he escaped
injury, and then he was struck over
the head with a garden rake and for a
time lowered between life and death.
After his recovery he was well sprin-
kled with bird shot while hunting
Some years ago Bowen went south
10 work as bricklayer, finding n job
in Alabama Immediately It began
raining. never ceasing day or night,
and, becoming discouraged, he returned
| to Indiana, only 10 find a letter follow
ing him saying that the rain ceased i'm
mediately after his departure. When
Bowen was appointed janitor of the
school building. he signalized his APP
pearance by falling into the water
tank, but he knew how to swim and
escaped drowning. Last week he fell
from band wagon. suffering a frac-
tured skull, from which he is now con-
valescing. Bowen now says that he is
not only n Jonah to himself, but also q
hoodoo. While one OF the unluclxiest
men in town, however, he continues
one OF the most opular.-lndinnapoli
