Nobody denies the hardship that will fall

Our task il not to show that any

that cathedral aisles have lost their

ANCIENT GUN BARREL
USED AS A POKER
Was Finally Discharged and
Boy Received Probable
Fatal Injuries.

Hopkinsville, KY, April 29.-John-
ME Smith, a colored boy living on the
farm of Mr.. c. ii. Harrison, lost the
lower part ofhis left leg under most
remarkable circumstances, and may
die as result of the injury.
The boys mother is the owner of
an ancient gun barrel which had been
used as a firepoker in the house for
over fifteen years, and at times the old
weapon has been made to do service
as a soldering iron for crude jobs.
Yesterday she was stirring a fire un-
der some soft soap in the yard, and
used the old gun barrel as a poker, as
she had been wont to do. She then
laid the poker across the top of the
receptacle. The flames reached the
barrel in which, unknown to her, had
remained heavy charge of shot for
perhaps quarter Of century. The
weapon discharged, and young Smith
who was standing near, received the
full load In his left leg. His condi-
ton is critical. ..-
