BOY ACCIDENTALLY SHOT
VIM MaiiOy an East End Roy while
Hunting Ducks Shoots Himself
through the leg.

William Malloy of 1913 Stinston ave
uue, East End, was accidently shot
through the leg while out hunting for
ducks Saturday afternoon.
In company with his younger broth
er he went duck hunting TO duck
pond a few miles fl ON the East End
When they got to the pond they Sc
cured boat and rowed out in search
of the birds. They were not success
full at first in finding any and rested
the gun on one of thu seats in the
boat
When they were about to give up
their hunt they spied what hey had
b en- looking for. The older boy lean.
ed over AMI seized the gun, the mnz'
zle pointing towards him; in drawing
it towards him the trigger caught and
the gun went off, the shot hitting
him in the right leg above the knee.
AS there was no way to get the in
jured boy home the little brother ran
the whole distance and told of the
accident. A rig was sent out and the
injured boy brought back. DR.. Baird
was called and he dressed the wound
which consisted of a very ugly hole
extending clear through the leg cut
ting a considerable part of the muscles
and tendons. Although the wound is
a severe one it is not thought that
ampu;ation will he necessary, but it
will probably cause lameness.

new RESTAURANT OPENED
L"ng Felt Want Supplied by Howard e.
Gilbert

Howard c. Gilbert, the popular and
efficient chef at the Euclid hotel, for
some time past, has supplied a long
felt want in the East End by establish.
Fifth street.
Mr.. Gilbert informs the Times
that he will run first class place
and will cater to the trade of the
best people in the city.
His table will at all times be supplied
with the best the market affords, and
special attention will be given to hav-
ing everything cooked and served in
the best manner possible. MIR. Gil
bert is considered one of the best
hotel cooks at the head of the lakes
and as he will personally supervise
the work in his new restaurant ii il
safe to Say that his patrons will have
no cause for complaint in this respect.
Promptness will be one of his hobbis %
80 that the busy man can get quick
lunch and at the same time have it
nicely cooked and served ina neat
and attractive way.
Mr.. Gilbert has expended something
over $50 in getting the building
overhauled and put in shape and the
purchase of new furniture and tixures
dishes, ETC., and large stock OF
staple goods to begin with.
The building has been tn oroughly
renovated papered and painted, and
the lunch counter, stools, tables chairs
and sideboards are all entirely new
from Whitney's furniture store. There
are six new tables in the main dining
room with lunch counter in the rear
and altogether the place presents n
very neat and attractive appearance.
The East End has long felt the need
of just such place as Mr. Gilbert has
opened. Others have tried it but have
given up the venture. Usually, how
ever, the failure has been the result of
non attention to the business on the
part Of the proprietors, as no such
place will run itself and be successful.
Mr.. Gilbert is entitled toa great
deal of credit for his enterprise and
SHOULD receive liberal patronage,
not only from those who are obliged
to take their meals away from home
but also from those who have their
homes here We would advise you
business men to take your families
out to the new restaurant occasion
ally. Allow the good housewife to
have a rest once in Il while from cook
ing and give her and the children an
opportunity to eat some other per-
sons cooking You might arrange
to take Sundays dinner there, and
the Times will guarantee that you
would not regret it.
AT present the restaurant will be
open evenings till twelve o'clock, and
Mr.. Gilbert informs us that after he
has his business permanently estab-
lished the place will be open at all
hours, and those who desire lunch
after theatres Or late parties, will be
promptly served, and in style that
will please even the most fastidious.
