BULLET IN HIS BRAIN.
But Tacoma Boy Seems as Well as
Ever.

TACOMA, Jan. 6.-Fred Poeppinger,
the 15year- old boy who was shot by
a spent bullet November IS, is now
playing with his companions though
the leaden missile is embedded in his
brain.
BY an X-ray examination of the boys
head, DR.. E. NJ. Brown discovered the
bullet about an inch and a half inside
of the right temple. 1t had ranged
back from its point of entrance in the
temple for that distance However, the
fact that the missile had plcwed nearly
two inches through his brain and is
now there, has not affected the youth
in the least, beyond the injury from the
shock which followed He is not full
ly recovered from that.
The wound has healed. the bandages
are removed, and Fred is just as he was
before he was struck down so mysteri-
ously when playing with his compan-
ions.

The affected animals jaw begins to

We have cut the carcasses open and

the trouble is caused by the animal
getting gravel between its teeth, but
not one knows positively.
In Morrow county we have lost

NEAR TO DEATHS DOOR.
Heart and Pulse Stopped For Ten
Minutes.

DAVENPORT, Wash, Jan. 6.-Dr.
r. P. Moore removed bullet from the
skull of Jacob Rathjens, who shot him
self in Spokane a few months ago. The
bullet was located by probing and
when located the skull was chiseled
away and the ball removed. During the
operation the pressure upon the brain
of the patient nearly resulted in death.
For 80 minutes artificial respiration
was resorted to and for 10 minutes no
action of the heart or pulse could be
perceived. The patient is resting east
ly and will probably recover.
Mr.. Rathpens attempted to commit
suicide by shooting himself in the head
and it was thought at the time that the
ball did not lodge in the skull, but
that it glanced off. Upon an ex-
animation DR.. Moore Immediately de-
cided that this impression was an err
