A Serious Accident.

An accidental shooting with serious
results occurred at the Williams farm
northeast OF this city on Friday morn
ing OF last week. Cyrus Williams,
1S-year-old o of ]. r. Williams, and
Raymond Hunter, son of r. NJ. Hun
ter, were out hunting, and were look
ing for game on opposite sides of a
hedge fence, a short distance apart.
A rabbit sprang from the hedge run
ming in the direction of young Hunter.
Cyrus notified his comrade. who
whirled quickly with his shot gun in
position and finger on the trigger,
and fired at the game.
Cyrus was in direct range with the
load and five shot struck him full in
the face. Two shot struck him be-
meath the eye-ball and in the inside
corner of one eye, causing a blood
clot and lodged there. Another shot
lodged in his lip, one in the cheek
and still another went through his hat.
DIR. Gum was quickly summoned
and extracted all the shot except the
two in the eye, which were serious.
He advised that young Williams be
examined by specialists and left with
him Saturday morning for St. Louis
where he was placed in the St. Mary's
Sanitarium. Experts have him in
charge and possibly an operation will
be performed and the eye-ball lifted
to extract the shot and save the sight.
As the affair was purely accidental
in all its phases and the boys were
fast friends of two good families,
young Hunter is much distressed over
the occurrence. 1t is hoped by
friends of both that the victims sight
may be saved and nothing more seri-
Gus than has developed may result.

Delicate Compliment.


Many delicate compliments have

subtle in speech, but here is one
straight from the heart of an nliterate

"When I was preaching at Wafla

no Negro preacher in town, and | was
often called upon to perforra 4 cere-
mony between Negroes. One after
noon, after l had married /. Young
Negro couple, the groom asked the
price of the service.
"'Oh, WE'LL" said I, Won can pay

But Tommy broughta note of excise
