LOST TWO FINGERS
BY BURSTING OF GUN.

Arnold Pregel, the 17-year-old son
of Mr.. and Mrs. Herman Pregel, liv-
ing seven miles west of this city, is
at the county hospital, having lost two
fingers on his left hand yesterday aft
rho by the bursting of a rifle he
was in the act of firing. The middle
finger was amputated by Drs. Miller
and Stevens between the first and sec
ond joints and the ring finger between
the second joint and knuckle. Young
Pregel was alone at the time, and eff
forts to find the gun, or any part Of it,
are unavailing. Just what became of
it is a mystery. The barrel exploded
just as the young man pulled the trig-
ger. He did not lose consciousness,
but does not remember in which direc-
ton the parts of the broken gun flew.
He was resting comfortably at the
hospital this afternoon. There were
no other injuries of any consequence.
