monks have been obliged to hire a

facts; Raymond Mutually, IL years

matches so the lad said he had a

cigarette which was i'll his mouth up
to the muzzle and pulled the trigger.
The bullet entered close TO his ear and
lodged in his forehead on the opposite
side.
The above information was given
out by the brother who was the only
witness to the sad affair.
After the above had been placed in
type, our Harper's correspondent sent
in an interesting account of this sad
affair, particulars being substantially
as above. The boy never regained
consciousness after being shot, and
