OSCAR ROBBINS SHOT
 ON A HUNTING TRIP
Desperately Wounded by Accidental
 Discharge of Shotgun.

Oscar Robbins was seriously injured about o'clock yesterday afternoon by the accidental discharge of a shotgun. In company with John Gibson he was hunting white wings. across the river. near the Heard ranch. The two men had been on foot and, starting to F'- turn home MT. Robbins entered the buggy first. MT. Gibson untying the horse. The guns had been placed in the buggy, and in handling the lines before MT. Gibson stepped into the rig, MT. Robbins in some unaccountable manner touched the trigger of his shot gun, discharging the weapon He don't know just how it happened. nor does MT. Gibson. but the full charge of the gun took effect in the muscle of Mr Robbins right arm. just above the el- bow. making terrible wound.
 They were four or five miles from the nearest doctor. and there was ev- cry chance for the injured man to bleed to death before help could be reached. MT. Gibson. though tied his handker- chief around the arm. just below the shoulder. as tight as it was possible to do. and the flow of blood by that means was considerably lessened. MT. Gibson then drove to town with his horse on the run to the office of Dr. Wiley. MT. Robbins by that time had lost so much blood that he could scarcely stand. An examination of the wound was made a once. and it was found that while most of the muscle of the arm had been shot away the bone was still in tact. Later in the evening the injured man was removed to the sisters hos pital and at late hour last night he was resting as easily as could be eX- pected.
 pr. Wiley said that unless septic poisoning developed he considered MT. Robbins chances of recovery very good, but of course it will be difficult for some time to tell just how much use he will have of the injured arm.

SURE OF HIS JOB

A Philadelphia lawyer recently had cause to make frequent complaints of the destructfyeness of his office boy. an Irish lad of F. The straw that broke the camel's back was the smashing of unique inkstand presented to the at torney by a friend in Japan. As the stand was quite valuable the lawyer decided to teach the boy a lesson. So, summoning him, he said: Look here, Tom. this sort of thing must. cease. That inkstand was worth sS0. l shall retain $2 of your salary each week till it has been paid for
 With a grin the boy replied: Well, sir, it looks like I'm sure of a steady job for some time to come."-New York Times.

SECOND AVENUE
 FIRE YESTERDAY
Houses Saved and Not Great Deal
 of Damage Done.

There was a good sized fire yester- day afternoon at the corner of Second avenue and Bennett lane, on the prop erty of L. N. Jusunofsky. An alarm was turned in and the department re- sponded promptly. making the long run in very good time. Unfortunately there was no water mains in that sec tion of the city and the department could not make connections with the pipes. The chemical engine was press ed into use and did effective work. The fire started in the Jususofsky barn. it is presumed by children fire crackers in the alley for the explosion of crackers was heard there, anu there was no fire anywhere about the place all the afternoon. The fire quickly consumed the barn and outbuildings destroying a set of harness and some other things that were stored there and a number 9of portieres and valued household articles that were on the line nearby. The articles stored were but the household goods were fully covered.
 The fire then spread. before the de- partment arrived, along othe fence to the next neighbor's place, MT. Fry and on to MT. Streng's. burning everything in the back yards of the two places. MT. Strengts kitchen caught fire once as did MT. Jesunofsky's, but the help of neighbors and others. who were on hand with buckets of swater. eXtin-' guished the flames before any serious damage was done. Probably all that saved the three houses was the heavy growth of trees in the back yards be tween the fences and the houses that to a slight extent checked the flames until they had consumed the other smaller buildings and burned out for want of material

Reflections Resented.

Secretary Taft in his testimony also
states that he IS sorry 10 have been mis-
led into the incorrect statement of Mr..
Stevens views. which Mr.. Wallace re-
CARDS as a Slur upon his work This &C
tion Of Secretary Taft in casting refleC-
tons upon my work on mere suggestions
is to my mind q further proof Of the hos
tility toward me which Mr. Cromwell
succeeded in installing in his mind. Even
when at this late day he is forced TO with
draw this Unwarranted attack upon my
capacity as an engineer he chooses TO
quote me as calling il a 'slUr' upon my
work, when he must have known per
fectIy we'll that Mr.. Stevens was the au-
thor of that expression"
After reiterating his former statements
that financial reasons were not the cause
Of his request to be relieved, and that his
desire for proper authority and nOn-in-
reference with the conduct of the work
was not due TO personal ambition, Mr.
Wallace makes the statement that 'at
no time did the thought ever occur 70
me to hold up Secretary Taft or any
one for additional authority or Compen-
sation."
